Ordered a family pack #3 for Easter lunch. Did not receive our third "side," buns, rolls, ribs, or whole chicken. Have attempted to contact management multiple times by phone and email and have not had a response for a week.

Had the ribs at Chandler BBQ festival & was super impressed about how tender they were & how much meat was on them. I went to their store this weekend & got a full rack to go, & they were the exact same.. meatiest ribs I've ever seen in my life! A normal rack of baby back ribs weighs 1.5-2 lbs. The rack from Honey Bear weighed in at 3.2 lbs!!

If the service is bad, the food could change your mind. The brisket sandwich is heavenly. The peach cobbler reminds me of home with

It looks like a dive from the outside, but the food tastes so good. Prices are decent, and you get enough to feel full.

I got the catfish dinner with mac and cheese with the bro beans. I also got a side of peach cobbler when I say the food was delicious. The catfish was seasoned well and crispy. The macaroni&cheese was the prefect. The beans took me back to my childhood. They have sausage or hotdogs in them. They were just darn good! The peach cobbler was good, I like my crust flaky. I will order again.

Overall pleasant experience.Brisket was very moist and tasty. The brisket however, came chopped and we were not offered to have it be sliced. 9/10The pulled pork was good but a little dry. 8/10The BBQ sauce was very tasty. It was a little acidic. 9/10The Mac was a 6/10, a little bland.Collard greens were good. 7/10Baked beans were tasty. It tasted a bit like they had a tomato sauce base with some kind of pepper. 8/10Normal French fries were very good 8/10. However, the chicken cheese fries the fries were soggy. 4/10The ribs were very good. They came pre-coated with BBQ sauce which I’m not normally a fan of but the BBQ sauce was good so it ended up good. They meat could have been seasoned more pre-BBQ sauce and also they were a little inconsistent with a few being dry. 8/10The coleslaw was good. 8/10The peach cobbler was not good. Peaches tasted like canned peaches and the crust was like a bad pie crust. 1/10Overall pretty good place. The meats were all good but the sides were a bit of a let down compared to our expectations. Fast service, and decent building. Because the dessert let us down so much it lost a star.

Got food from the food truck. Literally 3 oz of meat for $17. Came in a tiny container. Would have gotten double the amount for same price at a restaurant on this street.

A bit overpriced for the quality and quantity of food. I get that everything is pricey everywhere but at least make the food good if youre gonna serve small portions. Bbq sandwich was so small I thought we ordered a slider instead. Corn on cob had no flavor. Side of mac n cheese was more like a cup. Loaded fries had decent amount of meat but too bad it was flavorless and needed more bbq sauce.

Great southern bbq. Have tried the pulled pork sandwich, the pulled chicken sandwich, the rib tips and fries and the meaty mac, all were delicious. The seasoned fries were awesome too and came hot of the fryer and the mac and cheese was very flavorful as well. Order at the counter service to go was friendly and fast. Give them a try if you like bbq!

I'm always greeted when I walk in, the food is good and prepared the way I like it. If I decide to eat there the table and crowd is always up to par!
