Not many people in restaurant and we still had a 15 minute wait because they had 2 servers and no bartender. Not cool being by the hockey arena and people wanting to go eat before the game. Will never be back. Everytime I come it just gets worse and worse. Now it’s to the point it should probably just clise

We had a steak salad and a crispy chicken salad and they were fantastic! Plenty of food and drinks served in quart jars. Traditional salad dressing options - nothing offered was light.

Ordered pick up. Brisket was very moist and tasty. Ribs were dry and tasted like they were reheated in microwave. Potatoes were good.

It's little wonder Skeeter Barnes was a favorite stop for John Madden's tour bus as he crossed the country covering NFL football. My favorite is the pulled pork, followed closely by the brisket. I ordered the prime rib during my last visit and it was delicious too! If you haven't tried Skeeter's you're missing out!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Skeeter Barnes and let me tell you, their burgers are top-notch! The patty was juicy and flavorful, cooked to perfection. Plus, the bottomless sides were such a great deal – I never ran out of delicious options to accompany my meal. The atmosphere was laid-back and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal with friends or family. Overall, I would highly recommend Skeeter Barnes to anyone looking for a tasty burger experience with plenty of sides to choose from. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Steak was just okay. Bottomless sides were in 4oz sauce cups... made no sense.Best part was the bread.

Our visit was excellent. The service was fantastic. Our server was so fun, knowledgeable, kind, patient with our kids, and very prompt with refills of drinks, appetizers, and side dishes.The food is always delicious. And the endless side dishes is such a bonus. So many restaurants are finding ways to cut costs, and portion sizes. And at Skeeters, the portions are big enough, you most likely won’t be asking for refills on sides. But! It’s an option! Always a great experience at Skeeter Barnes!

Meat was cold and lacked flavor. Obviously had been cooked a long time prior, and over cooked, imo. Bread good. My and my sons smoker in backyard much better, and higher quality meat cuts.

The food, combination of sausage, pulled pork, and brisket along with baked beans and Mac & cheese was absolutely delicious.

Damn. Good. BBQ.We were road tripping and looked up BBQ places near us. The pictures for Skeeters looked good. We started with the burnt end appetizer. It was cooked to perfection! Nice crust on the outside and super juicy and succulent center. The beer comes out in a huge mason jar, great aesthetic, and super delicious too.The BBQ platter was huge, easily split between two people. The only thing that could have been a bit better was the brisket, it was good, just a liiiiitle dry, it could've just been the day. But the ribs were some of the best ribs I've had. Fall of the bone, finger licking good! The sauces had great flavor too. We're definitely partial to NC pulled pork, and this isn't that, but this was fantastic.
