Howard Station serves owner-driven BBQ with standout mac and cheese, hush puppies and inventive sauces, complemented by attentive, team-style service and personalized catering—popular for weddings and events. Rooftop seating provides mountain-adjacent views and a casual, fun atmosphere with beers and colorful drinks. Meats are smoky and flavorful though some diners note occasional dryness. Reasonable prices, takeout and strong service largely outweigh minor issues like occasional coffee/dessert shortages and a location just off the main drag.

I think it’s a perfect spot for a light meal. It’s a college place in a college town! Very good service from kind gals. I thought it was smart to have the kitchen staff deliver the food. Prices are so good! Loved my chicken taco on taco Tuesday!

All around incredible staff. Unbelievably friendly throughout the entire meal. If you get Hannah as waitress you’re lucky she absolutely crushes customer service! Please make your Boone trip awesome!

Found a ???? in Boone today. After being turned away from two other BBQ restaurants, we happened upon Howard Station in the university area. After being seated, Ann, our waitress was right there. She patiently answered a bunch of questions regardingthe menu. After a short wait, our food arrived. Ribs were a bit on the fat side for our taste, but fat comes off. Beautifullysmoked. Mac and cheese yummy, with a side salad. During the meal, Ann kept us supplied with whatever we needed. We met theowner, Chelsea and had a very nice conversation. I ordered coffee with dessert only to find out they were out. Chelsea wentacross the street to a coffee shop and got my wife and I coffee. How is that for service? When/if, the next time we are in thearea, Howard Station is on our stop list.
