Awesome food and quiet atmosphere close to home. Great staff and service!! I will definitely stop again with my family.

Good food, service. I liked every thing. They give us a bunch to eat on our plate. The brisket is great.

I'm from Texas and we have some great bbq so I'm a little biased. But WOW this blew me away. Great brisket. Worth a short jaunt off of Hwy 24.

If tiny bathrooms, old tables, mismatching chairs, plastic tablecloths, etc. are deal breakers for you, then don't eat here. If some of the best barbecue in the area matters more to you than any of this, then this is where to go. One person's "dump" is another person's "hole-in-the-wall charm." For me, it's the latter.

We tried the brisket, smoked turkey, ranch beans, mac & cheese and coleslaw. All were very good but we liked the beans, Turkey and coleslaw best. The bread really good too. They were very careful about keeping customers safe during Covid-19. Everyone wore masks and they even sanitized our credit card and the pen used to sign the bill. We are going to McMinnville more often and will definitely be back to this place.

The food is good, and some of the best smoked wings you will find but.....the place is a dump. This guy has been in business in this location for years and it's time to upgrade. Tiny little nasty bathrooms. The layout is horrible. AC barely cools the place in the summer. Run down, worn out, junky building, what a mess.

If you haven’t eaten at Prater’s you’re either from four counties away or you ain’t got a vehicle. Famous for ribs, but we generally get the always good pulled pork plates. Nothing fancy—Just good. Smoked BBQ, ranch beans, peanuts on the floor, and good pies for dessert. Don’t expect the frilly fern bar decor—Just give it a try for the food and simplicity. Good food, good price, happy when you leave.

Stopped in for lunch when I saw the signs traveling from Paducah, KY to Atlanta.... Service was friendly and quick....Brisket Plate, Collard Greens and Salad Bar was the perfect lunch and fairly inexpensive. They offer daily specials or you can order off the menu, either way you can't go wrong....Easy on/off access from the Interstate...worth the stop.
