No frills bbq place. Place order at counter, cash only, they bring it to your table. Generous portions. A bowl of Brunswick stew is a pint container. Bbq is very tasty, not too vinegary. Hush puppies are great.

Very disappointing! Had not been there in awhile and food has really gone downhill. Hush Puppies were dry.and tasteless, the fries were lukewarm. My husband had fish and it was okay. I had pig in a pup and it was awful. That oversized Hush Puppy wasso dry I couldn't eat it. The barbecue was ok. We had gotten the Foo to go so didn't want to make a trip back. Pretty surethat will be our last visit to Kings.

My husband James and I really enjoy coming to Kings. We try to visit as often as we can, even though we live north of Greenville. One of our favorite staff members is Ms. Kokelia Barnes. She always gives us a warm welcome and makes us want to come back again and again. She is a fantastic ambassador for Kings. When we see her smile and taste their delicious fried chicken, we’re truly satisfied. She knows we like our chicken fried well done. I want to thank all the staff for their hard work and dedication. God bless! From me and Mr. James.
