Customer Reviews

A nice little place off the beaten path. A friend who lives in the Florida Panhandle area likes coming here and brought me. It's been family run, probably since it opened way back. We both got the fried catfish and it was great. I'd absolutely go back.

I was in town for the week and wanted some "authentic southern BBQ". I was so happy with what I got. First let's start with the atmosphere which is exactly the type of southern bbq pit stop I wanted here. No frills, no fancy anything, just good food. The lady at the counter couldn't have been more friendly, along with the server. They have self-serve drinks and the sweet tea was awesome. Then my food arrived and good lord was it good. I got the 5 meat sampler (though they were out of brisket that day). I knew the food was fantastic when I started praising the chicken and I don't even like chicken. Everything was cooked so well and so flavorfully. I got the fried corn as a side and it was really good as well. I would eat here every week if I was local. LOVED IT

Great little local place. *BIKERS-dirt parking lot. Just FYI. *LADIES-clean bathrooms! The fried chicken & okra seemed to be breaded in-house. Sawmill gravy was good. The mashed potatoes are REAL potatoes. Pulled pork sandwich is BIG and delicious. BBQ beans and fries are good. We will definitely stop by next time we are in the area!

Always a 5 star experience! Have been coming here for years and have never had anything bad. Baked beans are hands down the best I've ever had.

Brisket, ribs, beans, and bread greens are all delicious! Happy and friendly staff. Easy access to the highway. Sadly, I saw a table that left a mess behind and did not even tip. I get it. Not everyone wants to tip, but I feel their service deserves it! Simple, lay back location full of excellent food and great service! Plenty of parking, bobtail parking. We drive a semi truck. We dropped the trailer a Love's to go pick up our food.
