My wife and I ate here today for the first time. We both had the grilled chicken sandwich and it was great!! Service was excellent as well.It's definitely a hole-in-the-wall kind of place. The bathrooms are outside, like what you'd find at a gas station. Locking the door was a bit of a struggle.I suspect this place is quite popular in the summer, because it's set-up for drive-in service and outdoor dining.

Chicken was fried almost to perfection!! Chili and slaw dog was perfect. Fries a little under cooked and chicken could use just a pinch more season. Overall highly recommended!!

Stopped by on the 20th of March my friend, my grandfather and I. First time since my grandmother passed away and it's still a great atmosphere, fantastic food, enjoyable company and awesome employees. I can't wait to go back. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars!

I had a barbecue sandwich with an order of Cole slaw on the side. The Cole slaw was out of this world delicious as was the barbecue.

Worst "brisket dinner" ever. Wasn't a dinner but a sandwich with zero flavor. Rib sandwich tastes like nothing but liquid smoke. Macaroni and cheese is some Stauffers knock off. Collard greens not even on the menu. This is a fried food shack. Cute pigs decor tho.

Walking in, you're surrounded by thousands of pigs, figurines, murals, paintings, and anything else one can slap a piggy onto. You sit yourself among wooden picnic benches and tables draped with red and white checker tablecloths.The menu is pretty standard BBQ fare, and sides are separate from entrees, which was a little pricey, considering the portion sizes.The BBQ sandwich was delicious, saucy, and not at all dry. They served seasoned curly fries as a side and they were cooked perfectly.Service was prompt and courteous.

I had a great time here. Incredible service, the waitress was very nice and polite. The food was great. I got the foot long hotdog with chili. The hot dog was great, bun,too, but the chili was a bit greasy. The fry basket was phenomenal, seasoned curly fries, and freshly made. When you walk through, you see a old fashioned restaurant, pig themed, and pigs EVERYWHERE! The tables were clean, neat and very adorable, red and white plaid table cloth. Restrooms were great, warm water, which up here the cold is COLD. So warm water wad great, I loved the decorations! Great Stop!?
