The food was outstanding! The staff was a bit quiet and didn’t come by very frequently, but they were polite and attentive when needed. I will definitely be returning!
It was a decent experience overall. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and I really wished I could have tried the BBQ. The burger I ordered was tasty, but the standout dish for me was definitely the Diablo mac.
Always an exceptional lunch, just as great as ever. The pulled pork and sweet potato fries are absolutely delicious...for around $11, it's an incredible deal!
My hubby works pipeline construction and is in ND a lot over the years. This place was a repeat destination for his crew for take out lunch. So, last week, my kids and him went there for supper. Lots of food choices on their menu. We had the Firehousemeal which allows you to sample some BBQ meats, smoked Mac-n-cheese, beans and coleslaw. I was not disappointed!! Just planahead, wait times can be a little long.
Backdraft Cafe BBQ delivers authentic smoked BBQ in a small‑town, food‑truck–inspired setting with a broad menu—Firehouse sampler, Diablo mac, smoked mac‑and‑cheese and burgers standout. Meats are flavorful and popular for takeout, service is polite though sometimes sparse, and the place can get busy with long waits. Value is mixed: excellent savory dishes but extra charges for condiments and inconsistent dessert prep temper the experience. Overall, a compelling, return-worthy BBQ spot if you plan ahead and don’t mind a relaxed, bustling atmosphere.
