The highlights of the meal were the brisket, ribs, and macaroni and cheese. Since it's situated near the park, the parking lot is quite spacious in the evening.

The surroundings have a charmingly vintage vibe, with a lovely view of the tree-lined road. The customer service was also excellent.

Loaded frits with brisket... her smoked chicken, bean crack... is fantastic. On rare occasions, they do special items such as roasted chicken wings (personally loving them sat with buffalo, so make sure you catch them when they are offered). Customer service is great. Total fantastic experience. Visit and you will not be disappointed.

The prices were pretty reasonable. We ordered a 3x3 and a grilled cheese. The food was good. My friend had the 3x3 and liked the pulled pig the best. The beans were very good, but the Mac and the cheese seemed to have been crowned. Only cereals and not very pleasant to eat. The chicken was juicy and tasteful. So overall a good place for. BBQ Stop. If you drive through the street, it would be a good place to stop.

They truly know how to smoke their meat rather than just slapping on barbecue sauce like many other places do. The brisket here is the best I've had outside of Texas, and the beans are also fantastic. I can't wait to return and sample more of their other meats!

I've been on the hunt for a great BBQ spot, and I finally found it. I ordered the brisket and pork belly sandwich, and it was delicious. My husband tried the pulled pork mac and cheese with BBQ beans, which he loved too. They also offer a selection of local beers and unique sodas. We had so much food left over that we were able to enjoy a midnight snack! We will definitely be returning.

Plus, it didn't come with a side, which was disappointing. There were also a lot of flies buzzing around. On a positive note, the beer on tap was refreshing, though a bit watery. The staff were friendly, which was a nice touch.

The pulled pork, chicken, and ribs were all outstanding. I can’t wait to try the brisket next!

We got the pulled pork, pork belly, mac n cheese, and Cajun fries. All incredibly flavorful, smoky, and rich. Only issue we had was that the restaurant was out of almost everything. Including the chicken! My wife and I wanted to order ribs but they ran out literally right as we got to the register. It wasnt even late either. Bummer. But I digress, this is a fantastic bbq joint that's worth every penny.
