If you're in the Reading area and you have a taste for Soul Food find your way to Beckett's. For…read moreabout $15 a person you will get two pieces of chicken, two sides and corn bread. Which is exactly what I ordered. For my sides I selected yams and Mac and cheese. Collards are also an option for a side. Additionally, you do have options for fish or pork chops too. If you don't want a combo you can also order menu items a la crate. I would suggest ordering ahead to kill the wait time. Depending on how busy they are you may be waiting about 25 mins for your food if you just walk in to order. There are about two tables in there with a few chairs to dine in. But this is more of a takeout place in my opinion. Depending on your eating habits one platter can very well be two servings. Enjoy!

We ordered to go ribs, bbq chicken and sides-mac and cheese, baked beans, Cole slaw and potato salad. We also ordered the hush puppies. Overall, we like the food and would be back for more. The ribs were tender but a bit short on smoke. The chicken legs and were delicious with the meat falling from the bone but still moist. The hush puppies were tasty and not. heavy but I like them just a bit larger for a smaller crust to middle ratio. The Mac and cheese , as another Yelper has mentioned, was GREAT- the pasta was not overcooked, the sauce was smooth, and there were crunchy bits of topping. The Cole slaw was our least favorite, a bit too soupy and the beans were good but the beans themselves were a bit mushy. The best side for one of us was the potato salad which tasted like HIS mom's so of course that one topped the list. We did takeout but there was plenty of seating in the adjacent dining room.

I'm not sure that I've ever had smothered pork chops as tender as these…read more I ordered via Uber and my order arrived within the hour. I ordered the smothered pork chop dinner with a side of rice and gravy and collard greens, and I added add'l sides of sweet potato casserole and stuffing (for an additional fee for each.) Like I said, the smothered pork chops were extremely tender. I didn't even need a knife, I honestly could have used a spoon to eat them. The gravy could have used a tad more salt or chicken bouillon, but the flavor was good and the gravy had a good consistency. The collard greens were really good. I'm not sure whether or not they use meat, but I liked them. I absolutely loved the sweet potato casserole. It was very sweet, just like I like it. The cornbread dressing was good, but I should've gotten my gravy on top of it to keep it super moist. Next time I will do it with the gravy on top.

There are steep steps to negotiate getting in so be careful. I got barbecue chicken with macaroni & cheese and green beans for my sister. I had a taste for turkey wings and ordered it with macaroni & cheese, of course, and sweet potatoes. The staff both on the phone when I called to confirm hours, since it was Super Bowl Sunday, and in person are great. It's a cute venue to get together and enjoy food and fellowship. I actually did a two step entering to the song that was playing. :-) My food was enough to share. I didn't want to be greedy. (smile) The macaroni and sweet potatoes are amazing. The turkey wings were delicious. I'll hold on the gravy next time. I like my poultry on the darker side. The number and address is already saved for a return visit. I'll be back Lord's willing.
