Contribute Feedback What C likes about Bare Bones Bbq:
I have had the lean brisket a few times now. It won't rank up with the best I've ever had, but it is pretty good. Never overcooked, just doesn't really have a smoky flavor. But their house sauce is good and the atmosphere is interesting. They offer live music on the weekends although I've not been for that. Staff was very friendly and haven't had an issue there yet.

What Christian C doesn't like about Bare Bones Bbq:
Food is pretty decent but they add 30 percent to a 10 dollar order for paying with a credit card. What kind of small town business extorts their customers like that and thinks it's acceptable? I would expect that in Austin but not in Gatesville. View all feedback.
I ordered a chopped sandwich and fries at this restaurant. When I finally had the chance to open the takeout container about an hour later (I was busy), I found that the sandwich had sliced brisket instead of chopped, which was okay but not my preference. The brisket was good and tender. It wasn't the best BBQ I've ever had, but it was still good. The employees were extremely nice and friendly, and the place was very clean. I hope to stop in again in the future. I am giving it 4 stars because my order was wrong and the restaurant wasn't busy at the time.
This restaurant in Texas has the best BBQ around! You'll want to arrive early to make sure you don't miss out on their delicious offerings. We've sampled almost everything on the menu and it has all been fantastic. The Smoked Chicken, Smoked Turkey, and Brisket are all incredibly tender and full of mouth-watering flavor. I always request extra lean meat and they always deliver. Their homemade desserts are also a must-try. The customer service here is exceptional, with staff always willing to go the extra mile. Jamie Velasquez in particular stands out as a top-notch employee. Additionally, Bare Bones offers live music and events in The Bone Yard, making it a great spot for entertainment. Be sure to check them out online!
I'm a huge fan of smoked chicken, and Bare Bones never disappoints. The sides are just as yummy. Never seem to have room for dessert though... Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
