Absolutely pathetic experience at Dickey's BBQ in Madison, MS. Spent $60 on an Uber Eats order placed OVER AN HOUR before closing, just for my driver to show up and be told they were out of baked potatoes, ALL tea, and comeback sauce. At that point, why are you even still accepting orders? Sounds more like the employees just didn't feel like doing their jobs. The two women working the closing shift on May 6, 2026 were also incredibly rude to my driver. Treating someone who is trying to do their job terribly because they want to go home early is. despicable. Then I tried calling the store 7 times and they flat-out ignored every single call. Lazy, unprofessional, and honestly one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in Madison. If you don't want to serve customers at night, then close earlier instead of wasting people's money and time. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Calls Made - Barbeque Near Me - Madison, Mississippi

See all

Idk what all the bad reviews are? It was my first time at Dickey's and I tried the Madison, Mississippi location. I usually don't leave reviews but this must be said. The other reviewers? Fuck those assholes. These are the fucks who expect a butler to wipe their majestic ass every time they take a shit. This place is great! Great vibe, service and food! ooh and JESUS is King! you show up at rush hour, and leave a bad review because the experience wasn't up to your standards? Fuck your standards, go somewhere else. don't kill their vibe! read more

I am so disgusted First of all, just off the bat the workers forgot our ribs and extra bread. Then, the pulled pork was ICE cold. Like, just pulled from the fridge cold. Which was concerning because I watched the worker pull the bag from the hot box upon picking up and everything else was hot. The real kicker was the hair that I found in my beans. $50 wasted. Do not eat here. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Hair is on the paper - Barbeque Near Me - Madison, Mississippi

Enjoyed pulled pork and sliced chicken breast with fried okra and Cole slaw. So fine. The slaw was wonderfully cold and a great balance to the hot meal. The pulled pork was superb. I enjoyed the chicken, it was most moist. The fried okra was perfect. I especially like the three choices for additional bbq sauce. Like that the meat isn't overwhelmed with sauce. A most enjoyable meal. read more

In the last month, I've placed two online orders for delivery. Although I select th sauces I want, I did not receive them either time. I didn't say anything the first time but this time I decided to call. Neither of the to people I spoke with really seemed concerned and said there was nothing they could do about it. I will not be returning and I am very disappointed in their service. read more

The only good thing about this place is its name. I ordered the ribs with okra and Mac and cheese. The ribs still had the membrane on. There was no meat. It was just all fat. I felt like I was eating a plastic water bottle. The okra was cold and hard. The Mac and cheese was also terrible. It tasted like I was eating the Mexican blend cheese from Kroger.Everything was also cold. My meat was also black and I can't stand things that are black. Go spend your money somewhere else. Bye Bye Dickey read more

Yep this place blows. Food is cold and it smells like Baugesh in the restaurant. Everything is frozen and the brisket is identical to chewing bubble gum. Oh, did I mention that the food is always cold. read more

DICKEYS has delicious food and Tea. All the meals are very tasty, and the Smoked Meats especially the Brisket is sooo flavorful and delicious. We enjoy their warm, friendly and professional service, whether dining in, take out or Pickup assistance with loading food in vehicle. DICKEYS is also my GO TO place for ordering my BBQ and smoked meats for large family gatherings. read more

I had the sliced brisket with spicy bbq sauce, fried okra and bread. Really good.. Best brisket in town!! Friendly service.. Will be back.. would definitely recommend to friends and family!! read more

I ordered a pulled pork sandwich, bbq beans, and a drink. I was told it would be about 5 before the beans would be ready. I said ok no problem. About 5 mins later they brought out our food, no beans. No problem I figured it would be a little longer. The bbq pork sandwich was excellent. OK, I am now finished with the sandwich, and still no beans. I went and checked. I don't think they ever put them in the over. Still not ready. No explination. No appology. Just a blank stare. No compensation. Just really bad customer service. I just left. I will find my bbq elsewhere. read more

They were out of some of the menu items, which is understandable. A refund was processed, I hope, but they allegedly could not print a receipt or send and email confirmation. Service was not good. We placed an online order that was to be picked up just before closing. I understand that they'd probably worked all or most of the day, however, the lady in there was not very kind or welcoming. I will not return, and hopefully, I will receive my refund. read more

Once again, Dickey's drops the ball. A few years ago, I placed a moderate to go order - about $80 - to pick up at 7. Paid, got there, and they had closed for the night. I could see the manager scurrying around hiding as I knocked on the door (I had guests over and we'd ordered dinner for all of us. She turned the lights off as I stood outside. So... I returned today and ordered online. 3 others who ordered online showed up right after me and none of our orders had been started. One left without food. I waited and got mine and it was....ok. Then I noticed there was an additional fee for "renew and recycle" program Dickey's has enacted. In other words, the customers will be assessed a few for something that is never mentioned online or in the store and no explanation is given. On top the 3.75% charge "added to the menu prices" (although NO prices are posted on their in store menu) for using a credit card and a dirty restaurant, nope, that's it for me. What a scam! read more

We were missing a kid's entree. Two employees told me I was wrong and got upset with me-- on top of being overcharged for drinks. We will never go back. read more

Good food my kids liked it for the most part.... but the kids meat meal with "ribs" had one rib..it was good but yes only one rib... I would love to give them an easy 4 stars but it was a To-go order and we requested texas toast...guy said "sure"...get there 5 min later and were out of texas toast...SMH and by the way the dinner rolls r terrible PRETTY MONUMENTAL for a 4 & 2 year old. Then we get home and my other kid starts crying after one bite of the sausage...I tried it and it was so hot I could hardly stand it...all I could taste is jalepenos ..in a kids meal? Come on man!!! read more

I would rate our experience a 4.6 The reason why I would not go 5 stars is because the potato salad was pretty bland and Baked Beans were overly sweet but the Brisket was great! The spicy sauce was good but needed more heat... pretty mild in my opinion and I don't eat a lot of spicy foods. Waffle fries just okay.. and the Ice cream fell short as well being not dairy.. All in all the food was good and I would like to do back to try other meats and sides. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Chop Brisket Sandwich w/ Potato Salad & Baked Beans. Also Sliced Brisket w/ Waffle Fries, Baked Beans & Roll. - Barbeque Near Me - Madison, Mississippi

I like dickies I think it's some of the best barbecue in town. The brisket is killer. The onion Tangler's are very good. Service kind of serve yourself in there. So service was good. I will be back. Plus you get free ice cream read more

Great short notice catering and delivery Recently used them to cater a lunch for 45 at work. I had trouble calling the restaurant due to phone/data issues with their provider. I was able to get word to the manager and they called me from their cell phone to take the order. I was working with Chasity and told her what I was trying to do, she advised the best combinations for my group. This was less than 24 hours from when I needed the catering, she was confident they could meet the needs for us, and they did. I also had a last minute request to add ice for the drinks, when our ice machine was out of service the day of our meal, and that was met with "no problem" for the response and everything was delivered on time. read more

Been coming to this site for years but lately is has been going downhill fast. Ice cream machine broken last four visits, prices not shown on menu boards, a/c dripping excessively, no ladles in bbq sauces, and cashier looked dazed and confused when I paid with cash. read more

Ribs are the best around. Beans are good as well. BBQ sauce is my favorite kind...sweet. They have others. Potato Salad is not lumpy like I really want it....but it's good. They have new menu items....baked potatos, tacos, and a few other things. Run by good Christian folks. Y'all check em out. read more

This is one of my wife's favorite go-to joints. The Chicken plate is very good. I had baked beans and onion tanglers. I've actually never had a bad meal here. It's pricier than other similar fare, but as often as we eat here it isn't a big deal. Good eats. read more

I keep trying to find something to like about this place. I finally found it . My husband and I each ordered the smoke house salad . I got the smoked chicken in mine. It was about the size of a side salad with about 2 ounces of chicken, lettuce and a little shredded cheese. The ranch dressing was horrible. This was a win for me for as I'm on weight watchers and probably the only points was the cheese. We spent 23.00 and left hungry. The employees don't seem to care if you are there or not . I'm always amazed that this place is still open. read more

Flowood, Mississippi location! Ken was very rude and unprofessional. He raised his voice constantly at us when he was in the wrong for how he was ringing up the food. I called today to speak with a manager. He was the manager on duty. I made him aware of the situation, he continued to raise his voice at me, and talked over me. When I asked to speak to the general manager he stated that was the general manager, which is false. The general manager is Emily. He also told me good luck with finding someone to help me because they will not help me. I go to this restaurant every other week and have never had an experience like this. I will never go back to this location if he continues to be there. This is not his first encounter of being rude to customers yet he continues to still be employed and treat others badly! Terrible service. I will not be going back as long as that rude human being is there read more

Went on Sunday night for kids eat free. Huge portions. Service was excellent. Chris, one of the servers, was very friendly and made sure we were happy with everything. The restaurant was clean and the food was excellent. Fries were a little too salty for me but the wife and kids liked them. Their Texas frito stack was delicious. Will definitely be back read more

Don't get the brisket chili. It's a $4 upgrade and you get 2 oz ! Way overpriced for chili that's just ok

If I could give a lower score I would. I have never been so insulted and disrespected. My son and I were coming in to get takeout since he had never eaten there. When we approached the door, the young lady opened the door and told my son he couldn't come in without a mask. He stated, "oh, I just forgot it in the car...let me run and go get it." She told me that I could come in if I wanted. I stated, "I don't want to leave my son outside alone." She retorted, "then you can't come in" and closed the door. Once my son retrieved his mask, we entered the restaurant and I did ask the young lady what did she say and why? She stated she didn't say what I thought she said. I asked to speak with her manager. She continued to talk even though I stated I was no longer speaking with her. I asked my son if he had reviewed the menu, he told me that he no longer wanted to eat there. I was then even more upset because that bothered him. So I told her that I needed to see the manager because today was NOT the day to let this go. The manager came out and the young lady kept talking. The manager never addressed me. The manager told her, "I know you are not rude." I said excuse me, will you please acknowledge my existence. I asked her would she like to hear from the person with the complaint. I asked for her name and another manager. She refused her name and refused to give me the contact information of another manager. The cook came out (Charles) and told me that I had to leave because I was threatening the workers. I was baffled because I never used any threatening language or gestures nor did I raise my voice at any point while speaking. I left because the staff caused a scene that could have been avoided. In all the years I have eaten at Dickey's and used the catering services, I have never been treated in such a manner. I was able to find out the manager's name is Christy even though she told one of the other young ladies that she couldn't speak to me. Needless to say, I will NEVER eat there again!!!! read more

My family and I tried to eat there with a half an hour until they closed and we weee told to leave

What a pleasant surprise. YUM! Got the brisket extra lean. Just right with the hot bbq sauce. Hubs got the frito stack. So good.

Food is mediocre at best. Got the pulled pork and was Luke warm and ok. I love their ice cream but it seems like every time I come in the ice cream machine is out of order. read more

Ordered online & and almost an hour later when we go to pick up order it is still not ready. Pick up time was set for 20 minutes BEFORE we even got there. They literally started making it when my husband asked for the order that was already paid for. If you can't handle online orders I suggest not accepting them. Ordered sliders and they were a complete JOKE! No apologies for inconvenience, no discount, and food was a mockery of what bbq should be. DONE with this place. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Hard bread with meat garnish. - Barbeque Near Me - Madison, Mississippi

I'm always surprised at the lack of BBQ in our area, so I'm happy to have Dickey's as an option, even if it is a chain. They do a good job, their pulled pork is flavorful, if not a bit fatty. Their sauce is good too, all of them bordering on too sweet though, but still, not bad. The staff is friendly, the sides are pretty decent, the serve yourself soft serve is a nice touch, and kids eat free on Sunday's. There is a lot to like about this place. It is your only BBQ option for a few miles and it has better hours than the next nearest (and much pricier) place. read more

Om nom nom nom nom. I have no ill words for Dickey's BBQ pit. As far as ribs are concerned, this was a fantastic place to have some juicy, meaty, tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs. I believe Dickey's is new to Madison, and since I am in town, we had to try some! My mom and I went in to order take-out on a Sunday evening (kudos for being open on Sunday, btw). We were greeted cheerfully and helped through the ordering process. Start at the side and continue to order meat, sides, drinks. We went with the picnic platter, which came with 1 lb. of meat and 2 sides. We got the creamy coleslaw (awesome) and baked potato casserole (it has bacon on top, I do not need to say more). The ribs were absolutely spectacular. Literally, fall off the bone, make a mess on my face spectacular. If I had to give a criticism, I'd say that the spicy bbq sauce just wasn't quite 'spicy'. But, no matter. I still cleaned my plate. To top it off, they have all you can eat soft-serve ice cream! Even though we got take-out, I still splurged with some fro-yo. YUM. So, for a Sunday-funday, or any night where you want some finger-licking good BBQ, I'd suggest you go to Dickey's. My family will definitely be back! read more

I have been here twice now and the daily specials are a good value especially since it comes with the "big yellow cup". The pulled pork is good for the area and I really enjoy the onion and pickle they include on the plate. read more

Asking for brisket "from the lean side" works if you don't like a lot of fat. Jalepeno beans are awesome.

Good BBQ. Most of the time is pretty quick service. They just changed their potato salad recipe which is good but the mustard base was better. One if our favorite local BBQ restaurants. Great BBQ sauce. Kitchen could definitely be cleaner. read more

Don't get the ribs. I had pork ribs which were very dark and nasty. No telling how long they had been in storage. They leave the membrane on the bone portion which is just wrong. I had the two meat plate which cost $11.00 for chicken and ribs. The chicken was ok. I won't be going back here. read more

BBQ is like a pizza, it's hard to mess up. This place is good for a chain. Their sides are better than their meats. If you want real BBQ Pig and Pint blows Dickeys away. It's more expensive but definitely worth it. Life's too short to eat mediocre BBQ read more

What an epic waste of time and money! The service sucked. The food was cold and bland. I wouldn't recommend this place at all. I took my spouse there for lunch. We will never visit this waste of of the word barbecue again. read more

When in Madison there is only one choice for Barbecue. Besides my children want the free Ice Cream. Daily specials and a daily lunch special makes this place a super-bargain. Ribs and brisket are my favorite and the baked potato smashers are my wife's favorite. My kids have food allergies and they are more than willing to accommodate my needs. Kids eat free on Sunday (with paid entree). read more

Fast, filling and the best smoked meats in Madison.

My fave go to sandwich is the big barbecue sandwich. It's always finger licking good.
