Went to Fox Bros for lunch while a family outing and at first I was confused where the entrance was since the parking lot is to the side of the building. We luckily found parking and were happy to get into an air conditioned space. The inside of Fox Bros is very much like a college bar. There are a bunch of memorabilia and different areas to sit. What we found pretty cool was how the cooks/chefs come out and serve your hot plate at your seat. That gesture is a nice touch to the presentation. The ribs fell off the bone which of course is very nice. I enjoyed their mac& cheese and potato salad. I don't recall my exact order but within the menu they offer to mix and match the various dishes. My boyfriend had collard greens with his mix and match. It was our first time having collard greens & we were not disappointed! read more

Located @ 1238 Dekalb Ave NE Decatur, Georgia Health Score 100 = A on 4/8/2026 Today, I ordered the Whole Rack Plate for $38 that includes two sides, so I selected Baked Beans and Cole Slaw. This plate will easily feed two to three people. I received a text stating that my order was ready but when I arrived I still had to wait 10 more minutes. As long as the food is fresh, I don't mind at all. The parking is extremely, extremely limited even on the street. Tip: it's a good idea to take someone with you to circle the block while you go inside to pickup your order. The ambiance was super busy with people dining in and picking up to go orders. It doesn't matter what time you come to this location because they're always busy. I would definitely recommend this location, just be patient. It was the delicious ribs for me. read more

Our visit to Fox Bros. was a 10/10! From the host to the server to the manager, everyone was so friendly and helpful! You can tell customer service is a priority for them. We were told a must-try item was the Foxy Melt. It was absolutely delicious!!! One of the best sandwiches I've had. My husband had the two meats plate with ribs, brisket, mac n cheese, and baked beans. All of the above were tasty, but the Foxy Melt stole the show!!! read more

Delicious food! Ordered the sausage and pimento cheese as an appetizer (more so just to try the pimento cheese since it's a staple) and it was good, but nothing to jump about. The main part however was great. The ribs can be eaten as is or add their signature BBQ sauce (I used mild and loved it) and the combo comes with 2 sides - would recommend both the mac n cheese and collard greens. The greens are slightly sweet and very vinegary. I also loved our waiter, Liam. He was funny and helpful, checking in every so often and apologizing when they were out of something (they did run out of cornbread for the day ~7pm). Vibes are great, you can sit inside or outside and look at the artwork on the walls (including famous visitors) or watch sports on the tvs. read more

If you are looking for a taste-of-the-south BBQ spot, you've come to the right place. This award winning BBQ is bar-none, one of the best around. They have a good selection of dishes and sides, all which are always hearty and delicious. The interior itself is exactly what I would picture of a traditional southern restaurant. With its whimsical country feel and decor, you are eating just as much with your eyes, as you are with your mouth. I tried the everything combo, with 4 meats and 2 sides, which included: brisket, wings, pulled pork and ribs. Along with fox-a-roni and potato salad. So delicious, tender and flavorful. This spot is also a 10/10! If you haven't been, you've need to try it out, and if you have been, stop by again! read more

Every once in a while, I come across a business that I wish I could give more than five stars to in a review... and this spot is one of them. Went in on Valentine's Day night unexpected quite the wait but they ended up having an opening at the bar so we took it. The bartender was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and very patient and helpful with all my questions. They were out of pulled pork and chicken, but she told us the brisket was the best anyhow and the brisket definitely did not disappoint. I got the brisket sandwich with a side of potato salad and my dad got the barbecue brisket salad with a side of brisket chili. Everything was absolutely perfect. The taste was amazing, the texture was amazing, and we left there very full and happy. The restaurant itself is pretty fun with a good vibe and friendly and welcoming employees. The bathroom was in a little bit of disarray, but also it was Valentine's Day night so I'm sure they were slammed. I'm not in Atlanta very often, but I can promise you that if I'm ever back, I will definitely make this one of my first stops. read more

Went there to try the burger week burger which was a Smoked Jalapeño Popper Bacon Smash Cheeseburger. The burger itself was really good, minus the popper. The popper had too much cream cheese and was an interesting idea, but didn't work. I enjoyed my burger without it. Burger fell apart on me but it was still good. I also tried the brisket chili and the baked beans. Out of the two, I preferred the baked beans. I am a chili lover and I know some like a brisket chili but it didn't do anything for me. Decent flavor but it also felt like it was missing something. My bf had a regular smash burger minus their sauce which contained mustard. He instead got it with the jalapeño ranch sauce which he did like. His side was the mac and cheese which he was not a fan of. I am super picky with mac and cheese and hardly ever get it. You order at the front and then they'll bring you your food. Server was very nice. The restaurant is in a brewery kind of atmosphere. Has an indoor outdoor feeling when windows open. Very minimal but clean. Would return but I know what sides I would get. read more

A recommended spot for me to check out while visiting Atlanta. They were slammed which was a good sign. I sat at the bar which had immediate seating. Great atmosphere and decor inside. Staff were friendly especially the bartender who was also my server. Food came out in a flash after I ordered it. Got the brisket sandwich (chopped). It was delicious and well worth with the Lyft ride to get over here and back to my hotel. I rated 4 stars because I wasn't blown away by it, but I would certainly recommend checking it out if you haven't been here. read more

My favorite was the brussel sprouts with feta. The brisket comes in 3 ways (lean, fatty, or chopped) and I chose the fatty brisket. It was really good till you got to the side bits which were drier than expected. The wings were so good. I got them tossed in spicy bbq. Overall a great dinner. The food came out so fast- within 5 minutes. The bartender gave great suggestions. The restaurant gives a classic bbq restaurant ambiance. read more

I like how creative the menu is here, which got me excited. The decor is nice and our server was knowledgeable about the menu and very friendly.. the fried pickles and the chicken fried ribs were good, but other than that, the food was WAYYY too salty. I had to send the chicken wings tossed in house dressing back for plain wings because the salt was overwhelming and not in a good way. The okra was salty. Tempered the salt down a bit with ranch dressing. And the the macaroni and cheese was not baked. its made kinda like velveeta shells but less flavorful. read more

It's crazy that I'm just now trying Fox Bros BBQ for the first time. This place has always been talked about in such high regard, such fevor. I'm trying to figure out why. I ordered the spare ribs, pulled pork, and quarter kitchen. My girl ordered the pulled pork and the sausage. Everything was just subpar. The meat wasn't really flavored, wasn't super moist. The food tasted like it had been sitting out. Not sure if I'll go back anytime soon. read more

Fox bros has some of the best barbecue I've had. Not everything was perfect but there is so much good food that I had that I can't complain. The ribs were phenomenal. The ribs were solid, sticking to the bone, yet also so tender and juicy with just the right amount of fat. I don't like barbecue sauce as most places make it too sweet but these just had a light layer that didn't overpower at all. I ended up adding some of the spicy barbecue sauce which was delicious. One of the main highlights were the wings. I tried both the dry rub and sauces wings and both were incredibly crispy on the outside with a moist inside. Some of my favorite wings I've had. My favorite item which came as a surprise was the chicken. Most times when I get chicken at a barbecue place it's just chicken, but here I had the smokiest juiciest chicken I've had before. What really makes it better was the white sauce that my server recommended me to use with it. I had never had anything like this before and it just added so much more flavor to an already great dish. The moist brisket was the most disappointing thing I had. Moist brisket is my favorite barbecue item and this was just not wet enough or flavorful enough. It just seemed dried out especially on one half of the piece. The fries weren't good, not crispy or salted enough. The fried okra was a nice side to have. With how much they are doing right, I'd love to come back to experience some more meats and more sides that I didn't get to try on my first outing here. read more

The bee's knees of ribs. This is my third time here and each him, it slaps and hits. The food here is so good. The ribs are amazing! When I die, I want Fox Bros to cater my funeral. The smoked wings are famous here. I wasn't crazy about the sauce, so I'll try their wings without sauce next time. The one negative was the cornbread. It was very dry and old looking. It looked not fresh and was wrapped originally in plastic and unwrapped to be served. 10-15 minute walk from the train station. Safe walk through the neighborhood and along the road. read more

Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q - Brisket and ribs with coleslaw and Mac and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Got recommended this place as the "best BBQ in Atlanta". We came on a Saturday for lunch and it was pretty packed which was to be expected. You are most likely going to have to park in the side streets as the parking lot is fairly small. Ordered the BC plate so will rank the things I've tried individually: - Jalapeno Cheddar Sausage (8.5/10): still on the fence on ordering sausage at BBQ places but this was a thumbs up from me - Brisket (6.5/10): got it sliced and maybe a little too dry for me - Spare Ribs (7.5/10): these were pretty good paired with the sauces - Tater Tots (10/10): the crisp on these were incredible - Collard Greens (9/10): really solid nothing else to say Service was top tier and I would definitely recommend stopping by this place if you are in the BBQ mood. read more

Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q - BC Plate (Ribs, Sausage, Brisket, Tots, Greens) - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Chicken. Fried. Ribs. I brought a group of five here on a hope and a prayer that Fox Bros was the real deal, and it absolutely delivered. Tiffany was our server--funny, attentive, and just plain awesome. The food rundown: Chicken Fried Ribs (10/10): Unreal. Perfectly tender, with a flavorful fried crust. The combo of white BBQ sauce and regular BBQ drizzle took them over the top. Everyone at our table was raving. Three big ribs per order--don't skip this appetizer. Brisket (9/10): Went with the fatty cut. Nice bark, fat rendered well, rich flavor. Just a touch on the dry side, but still excellent. Smoked Chicken Wings (10/10): I usually lean toward fried, rather than smoked, but these spicy BBQ "wet" wings won me over. Juicy, great texture, bold flavor--and the side of blue cheese they give you is generous. Tots (10/10): Classic, crispy, salty, perfect for dunking in white BBQ sauce. Standard on their own, but absolutely worth getting topped with brisket chili or Brunswick stew. Brisket Chili (9/10): Solid and flavorful, though I wanted more big brisket chunks and maybe some veggie/tomato texture. Banana Pudding (10/10): Everything you want--creamy, banana-forward, crunchy Nilla wafers. Whipped cream would've been a nice extra, but it's basically perfect as is. Bottom line: Fox Bros is legit BBQ. Great food, fun atmosphere, and unforgettable chicken fried ribs. Not paid, not prompted--I'm just a new raving fan. read more

I've forgotten how much I love this place! It truly has been years since I've dined in. We knew it would be packed on a Friday night so we opted for early dinner and was able to snag one of the few spots left in the parking lot. We were seated right away in one of the high tops. Our server was wonderful, but the food was even better. We shared fried pickles with ranch. The batter was light and peppery dipped with ranch was just the perfect combo. My husband and I shared the smoked wings and full rack plate served with mac and cheese and collards. The wings were nicely smoked but needed sauce for sure. Fortunately, they have them easily accessible at your table. Our favorite sauce was just the regular BBQ sauce but they also have a vinegar-based sauce and spicy for the more adventurous ones. The sweetness of the regular BBQ sauce really paired well with the rub they put on the ribs. You cannot pass on their Mac and cheese and collards as sides either. We were so stuffed and ended up taking home banana pudding for dessert. It's decent and thought was very sweet but lacking the banana flavor. Overall, what an excellent meal! read more

We walked here from a downtown conference venue and it was worth every step, even when my companions started to doubt my navigation skills. I will go well out of my way for good BBQ and I figured if Guy Fieri liked it it was a safe bet. The servers were on point- accessible and friendly but also let us sit back, take our time and enjoy our meal. The meats (and we got many of them between all of us) were all delicious, with the ribs and the briskets being favorites for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my collards (can't get 'em where I live and oh how I love them). The most delightful item we tried though were the brussel sprouts. Oh my heavens!! Another reviewer said that when they die, they want Fox Bros to cater their funeral. I can see why. My waistline is definitely thankful that I don't live here! (Although I did walk a long way so that has to count for something, right?) read more

Tastes like home. When I want BBQ, Fox Bros is what I want. The brisket and the ribs are just fantastic. When they have brussel sprouts on the menu, get them. They rarely make it home. If I want something easy, Texas fries with brisket. Also easy to warm up on the oven *if* you have leftovers. read more

We were visiting from Texas so we felt it only made sense to compare some Georgia BBQ to Texas BBQ and funnily enough the restaurant was Texas themed. I'm partial to Texas bbq but this place did not disappoint. The ribs and chicken wings were incredible! The seasoning and sauce were flavorful and delicious. The sausage and brisket were good but nothing exciting. The sides were great and overall the meal left us stuffed! The staff was friendly and welcoming! Overall a great meal! read more

Maybe truly a 3.5, but the experience and service were great so 3 stars seems unfair. We went later in the evening, which is admittedly not the best time to eat BBQ. They were out of sliced brisket (to be expected) and pulled pork (not expected). Chopped brisket was good, in place of the sliced - ribs were OK, dry rub wings were good - although a little too salty for me. The sides were probably better than the meat - good baked beans, collard greens, and bruswick stew. The macaroni was just OK. I forgot to try the cornbread. Overall, it was solid. The service was really good for a BBQ joint - I'm not sure I've ever had table service for BBQ, and she was working HARD. Hostess vibe was kinda weird - first we were told it would be 45+ minutes for a table - we were debating leaving - and then a table was ready within 5 minutes. Maybe we misunderstood 45, as 4 to 5? Either way, it wasn't communicated well. But, we all ate good! read more

The best BBQ in Atlanta, seriously! Location and Parking Located in borderline ATL/Decatur, parking is located in the small ( and always full) lot in front of the building, or on the side streets (read the signs carefully to avoid the boot). Venue and Atmosphere It's nothing fancy, just a bunch of rooms decorated with every artifact known to man, wooden furniture, pics of famous guests on the walls, and the small of delicious barbecue wafting throughout. They have a sizable patio as well. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. We walked in on a Monday and had to wait 20 mins for seating. On a weekend, be prepared to wait or just order takeout. Food and Beverages The combo platter is the cheat code for my entire life. Like seriously, who knew that a smoked sausage, smoked wings, and tender ribs could change your entire life. And what magical finger-licking ingredients are they putting in that sauce? I don't even like most BBQ sauce but somehow I was compelled to purchase a bottle to take home. Not to mention the platter of fried pickled that will make you ask "where's this been all my life?" It's safe to say that I've found my smoked wing fix. Verdict I'll definitely visit again and again, and again... read more

Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q - Beef Brisket Sandwich and Tater Tots - Barbeque Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Fox Bros BBQ is probably better than anything you could get in Southern California. However, it didn't hit like my first time having Atlanta BBQ at Fat Matt's. We split a combo between three people with medium appetites and were decently full--we chose a chicken quarter, pulled pork, chopped brisket, and a small rack of ribs alongside jalapeno cornbread, collards, and baked beans. Sides: Beans were very maple-y and sweet and paired well with the smoky meats. Collard greens were soupy and a little spicy, which I liked. The jalapeno cornbread was super dry, probably wouldn't get it again. Meats: Ribs were the best, followed by the quarter chicken. Tender and flavorful, no notes. The chopped brisket and pulled pork were, IMHO, interchangeable if no one had told me they were different. I am not a fan of pulled meat in barbecue, it's often dry or saturated in way too much sauce. I would have preferred getting a nice, fatty slice of brisket. Still a solid BBQ place--we brought my partner's relatives from Taiwan, and you could tell they were definitely impressed by their clean plates. read more

Nothing but positive things to say about this place. Definitely Texas style BBQ. Can't find anything like this in California. The food was excellent. It's all about the rub and smoke. Brisket, pork ribs, and the pulled pork were amazing. Very tender and flavorful. Didn't need a knife for the brisket. The greens, mac n cheese, and coleslaw were exceptional. The fried pickles are a definite must. Glad we stopped here. Definitely coming back again. The staff here were also amazing. Very professional, friendly, and helpful. The restaurant itself definitely feels like a legitimate small town Texas bbq restaurant. Complete with the Texas flag. read more

ATL's best BBQ and to our surprise the best meal we had on our entire Atlanta trip. So much so, I was dreaming about the brisket the entire time. Luckily we started our trip off right by going straight to this location after landing at 11am. The star of the show was Demetrius who gave us VIP service in the least suspecting environment. He went above and beyond to accommodate a dairy allergy and made sure we were taken care of throughout. You could tell so early in the day on a Friday this was a fan favorite. Picnic style seating outdoors and intimate darker atmosphere indoors. The brisket sandwich is a must lathered with a combo of their incredible bbq sauces! read more

Best bbq in Atlanta by far. The service is always great. Everyone is attentive and helpful. The vibe is old school country bbq spot. Lots of decor on the walls. Indoor and outdoor seating. TVs. The whole vibe. But the food. Oh, the food. The wings were incredible. I prefer the saucy ones, but my friends liked the dry. We all agreed both were stellar. The fried pickles are my go to. So good. Always get the brisket. I go fatty and sliced, but you can do chopped or lean as well. The pulled pork is good. It makes me happy. The collard greens warm my soul. The Mac and cheese is remarkable. I just love it here. read more

I think the OG location has a little more on the menu and the better location with cooks but have also been to the Works and enjoyed the food there too.

Can't believe I've never reviewed Fox Bros before! This was my favorite bbq joint when I lived in Atlanta many years ago and I was lucky enough to return for lunch during a recent trip. There's indoor and outdoor seating, very casual. Service is always friendly and quick/attentive. This time, my friend and I split some fried pickles and I also got the pulled pork sandwich with a side of baked beans. Yum! I've always loved their pulled pork, and the baked beans are really good too. They have an assortment of BBQ sauce at each table, and I enjoy their classic.

Super good BBQ joint in Atlanta! I've been wanting to come here for some time now, and it did not leave me disappointed. There's plenty of seating inside and outside, which is perfect for a spring day in Atlanta. The parking lot is on the smaller side though, so plan ahead. We ordered the smoked cheeseburger and Brussels sprouts off the specials menu, and a pulled pork plate with Mac and cheese and collards. The cheeseburger was made from brisket and looked almost too perfect to eat! The burger was cooked to perfection and was so juice. The pulled pork was well seasoned and honestly didn't even need BBQ sauce- but the original fox sauce is never a bad idea. The collards and Brussels were bangin' and the Mac and cheese was fine, but nothing special. They had a good selection of local beer, which is always a great addition to a bbq restaurant. The service was average. The food did come out fast, but our server had some trouble keeping up with our waters. We ended up going to the front to refill our own waters from the community water cooler. We will definitely come back for the great food!! read more

I have a love hate relationship with Fox Bros. Right now I am on a love cycle and can't get enough. We ordered a pulled pork sandwich and tater tots and a side of slaw. They arrived and they were beautiful. The sandwich was huge. It was some of the best bbq we have had in a while. It has a great amount of bark and it is perfectly seasoned. Moist and tasty. The slaw was very good. Not too much mayonnaise. The bun is one of the best and fits well with all of the pork. I would call it an oversized/over stuffed sandwich. Then there were the tater tots. They are addictive. We were there this past Friday for lunch and they were slammed. Service was great. Think every one on Spring Break was having lunch. Glad we didn't arrive until after 1:30PM because there was no wait. Highly recommend. Can't wait to return. read more
