This is a difficult review to write. I say that because my mother taught me if ya Can't say anything nice. Don't say anything at all. Yep that's how horrible my lunch was today.
Traveling through the area and decided for a quick pit stop. The name caught our attention, but don't make the same mistake we did. Our order came out fast, but the only thing that was hot was the fries. Okay so I found one thing that was good about this place the fries.
The mac and cheese was lukewarm. The brisket was dry and salty. The bun was stale, bland and dry. Now let's talk about the once was ketchup, that was filtered and reborn is what they call their house sauce BBQ. Ladies and gentlemen, there's an Arby's nearby. I recommend you go there instead. Because at least when spending $39 for lunch it would be hot, fresh and have some flavor. I normally take pictures of my lunch, but it's already In the trash at the last rest stop.

We stopped here after Howes Caverns. Everyone was hungry and this was only 10 minutes away. The restaurant was empty and it was around 4:30 - 5 pm on Friday. I asked what items they recommended. They recommended mac & cheese with pulled pork and the stuffed mushrooms. We also ordered brisket, pulled pork, corn bread, and cole slaw My son enjoyed playing pool while we waited for our food. The staff was very friendly and the food didn't take long to come out. Mac & cheese with pulled pork was not very tasty. Brisket and pulled pork didn't taste very good. Cole slaw was okay. The corn bread was cold and not very good.

Food tasted like it was cooked a week prior and then microwaved, contacted company and they ignored me. All meat dry and baked beans dry and stuck to container, macaroni super gritty and salad brown and in eat full .

Walked into the side that denotes the BBQ place, only to be hit with a scent that is indescribable in nature...definitely not a BBQ smell, more like something rotting or brewing up fruit flies. The ordering area is actually labeled as a grill, and their menu reflects more of a bar/grill rather than a BBQ place. Anyways, I ordered one of their BBQ plates with pulled chicken and brisket. After the counter girl stopped playing with her Nintendo Switch, she went back and got our food. (To which she forgot silverware and napkins... had to stop at a nearby gas station to get the necessary items to eat while driving...)The pulled chicken was not bad, but lukewarm, the brisket was dry, thinly sliced, and like it had been left out all night....(mind you, we were the first ones in the place...they unlocked the doors for us) the BBQ sauce that they make was so sweet and ketchup based, instant turn-off; whatever the sauce with the C on it was mustard based and not appetizing. We were told that the mac and cheese had bacon in it, only to find out there was none when we opened it... the place was cold and very unbecoming of a BBQ place.
... we should have read the reviews prior to going there... note to self, do research on where you're getting food if you are not local.

I ordered the sausage sandwich. It was massive! Two whole sausages, peppers, onions and mushrooms with homemade chips and a pickle slice for $12 + taxes. This is a bar b que joint, so it's laid back without a lot of fancy stuff. Food was hot and delicious, served quickly. Highly recommend if you want a quick bite.
