a message from Super smokers bbq & Papa's diner

Final day of Service: Sunday December 14th

After nearlythree decades of serving this community, it is with very heavy hearts that we announce the closing of super smokers Bbq / papa's diner. Our final day of service will be sunday, december 14th. 

Super Smokers was born in 1996, built on a love for great barbecue, good people, and the belief that a local restaurant could become a true gathering place. Over the years, we’ve weathered storms, rebuilds, ownership changes, economic swings, pandemics, and more challenges than most businesses ever face. And yet—we stayed. We kept the smokers going. We kept the coffee poured. We kept our doors open—for you.And you kept us going.To our amazing regulars, who showed up for us through the hardest times…To the families who’ve brought generation after generation through our doors…To everyone who celebrated milestones, shared meals, cried, laughed, and grew up with us—thank you.You are the reason this place mattered.You are the reason it lasted as long as it did.

To Our Staff — Past and PresentNone of this would have been possible without the incredible people who have worked within these walls. To every pitmaster, server, cook, dishwasher, manager, and team member who ever wore the Super Smokers or Papa’s apron—thank you.You showed up early, stayed late, worked through the heat of the smokers and the rushes of Sunday mornings, and poured your heart into giving guests the experience they came back for year after year.You carried us through transitions, challenges, and triumphs.You helped shape our story.You built the memories that families will talk about for years to come.We are forever grateful for your dedication, loyalty, spirit, and the pride you put into your work. This closing is not a reflection of your effort—you gave this place life.

With Deep GratitudeWe have been honored to be part of your birthdays, first dates, post-game dinners, Saturday morning breakfasts, and those quiet moments over a plate of ribs or a diner burger. Those memories aren’t going anywhere. They’ll always be part of the story of this little corner of Eureka.

Closing a chapter like this is never easy, but we are choosing to remember all the love, loyalty, and laughter that filled these walls for almost 30 years. We are proud of what Super Smokers became, and grateful for every person who made it more than just a restaurant.
From the bottom of our hearts—Thank you for being part of our family. Thank you for believing in us. Thank you for 29 unforgettable years.

Over the next few days as we sort out details more information will be updated. 

With love and gratitude,The Super Smokers BBQ / Papa’s Diner Family
