Great food. Reasonably priced. Nestled amongst a ton of choices this one stands out.

Hubby and I hanging in downtown Nashville today went to the food assembly hall for our favorite barbecue. Honey fire barbecue is by far the best BBQ we've had here in Nashville. My husband had a sliced brisket with double order of mac & cheese and he wanted to get another order, he loved it that much. I got the half a rack with bourbon, baked beans and creamy coleslaw. I'm not a really heavy eater so half of this portion would've been plenty for me so the rest will be my dinner tonight. Yum. read more

Good bbq in a food hall? Yep, Honeyfire BBQ defies the odds. If you see a line join it and thank me later. We got the double combo with the ribs and brisket. The brisket was delicious! Ribs were good as well but the flavor could be a little more smoky. The Mac was ok and the cinnamon apples are basically just a dessert. Sugar goodness! Bbq sauce is sweet and went really well on the ribs. If back in Nash, I'll revisit! read more

HoneyFire BBQ - RANCH HAND SANDWICH and MAC & CHEESE - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Great place. A bit pricy for the abundant bbq selections in Nashville. I went more than once in my week there.

Was I wary that locals said Honeyfire was some of the best around when it was in a food hall? Yes. Was I super happy to taste how fantastic it was? Also yes. We got ribs, beans, Mac n cheese and cornbread. The ribs were insane and the cornbread was so good my mouth is watering thinking of it now. Very sweet. All in all highly recommend the ribs and the cornbread! We walked there so I cannot comment on parking but it's on the food hall so has easy access! Service was fast and easy (while waiting in line we learned we could order online to avoid a line. Recommend!). The food hall is busy depending on the time. They have live music sometimes! read more

Atmosphere 5/5 - This place is located in the Assembly Food Hall which is a cool spot off Broadway. Lots to choose from and it has indoor and outdoor seating options. Food 4/5 - Chopped brisket sandwich was ok. Meat was flavorful, but the bun was cold. I ended up ditching the bun. White queso mac n cheese was nice and creamy. Service 2/5 - I was standing in the front to look at the menu and an employee told me to move back towards ordering area. When I said I was looking at the menu, she was not very friendly. The cashier was fine, but wasn't paying much attention and put a set of utensils on my plate and then added another one in my cup. I nicely returned one set and he grabbed it to throw it back in the bin. I'll be back to this food hall, but not to this booth. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - Chopped brisket sandwich and white queso mac n cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Lots of options! I was given the opportunity to taste the coleslaw since I couldn't decide. It was excellent and I chose it. Then I was told about the green beans with brisket. Had to have those too. I chose the brisket sandwich. Very flavorful. Customer service was great. read more

Was my first time on Broadway and was craving bbq, walked through the scorching heat to find this place and was definitely not disappointed. Solid portion size and everything was flavorful and tender. Servers were cool and to the point, and the surrounding area was lively, overall solid experience read more

The BBQ here isn't bad, especially considering it's located in a mall-style setting like the Assembly Food Hall..but it doesn't quite measure up to some of the top BBQ spots in Nashville. I wasn't a fan of how the brisket was minced in my sandwich; it came out a bit dry and could've definitely used more of that tasty BBQ sauce they offer. On the plus side, the slaw was pretty good, and the service followed suit. I really like the overall concept of the Food Hall. It's clean, spacious, and offers plenty of seating with charging outlets, free WiFi, and TVs showing whatever big game or event is on. It's a cool spot to hang out, and as far as I know, there isn't any direct BBQ competition within the hall. That said, if I find myself back at Assembly Food Hall, I might explore a different vendor just to try something new. read more

This is in a great location, a food hall with many locations, so it's perfect for groups in the mood for various food items. The atmosphere of the food hall is pretty great. The prices here are fair for what they provide. And the food is amazing, the best BBQ I had in Nashville! We had the ribs and sausage and came twice so we got to try various sides. All were amazing! The green beans, the corn pudding, baked beans and mac n cheese were all sooo good!! read more

Buffalo jones best chicken sandwich I've ever had. And the mac and cheese with the queso... chefs kiss. Come and experience this before you leave Nashville. They know what they are doing. read more

I have followed HoneyFire on social media for a while but haven't had the opportunity to have it due to not living in the area, but that was remedied recently and I am damn glad it was! I had the Big Cheesy which is the macaroni with a bed of protein of your choosing on top. I had the brisket and it might've been the best brisket I've ever had... yes I've had your brisket, Texas! It's been over a week since I've had it and I'm trying to find a reason to visit Nashville again to have more. I added the baked beans because they sounded good and they were a perfect blend of sweet and spicy. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich with green beans. The pork was pretty standard and solid, while the green beans were awesome as well. It was also our first time to the Assembly Food Hall, which I think I could spend all day there. Live music, great food and awesome vibes. read more

HoneyFire BBQ is an absolute gem in downtown Nashville. Tucked inside the food hall off Broadway, it somehow manages to outshine just about everything around it. You can watch your meal come together right in front of you. Like dinner and a show, but with way more delicious smoke involved. I went for the Buffalo Jones chicken sandwich and it was perfection. The chicken was seasoned beautifully with a subtle smoky depth, then absolutely pampered in ranch and buffalo sauce, with a swipe of mustard and some seasoned jalapeños that brought just the right amount of kick. It sounds intense, but the heat stayed friendly. More high-five than slap in the face. The coleslaw was creamy, tangy, and exactly what you want next to a sandwich that's doing the absolute most. Service was lightning-fast and everyone behind the counter was genuinely pleasant. If you're browsing the food hall and debating where to eat, just save yourself the decision fatigue and head straight to HoneyFire BBQ. You'll leave happy. read more

What can I say other than it was so good! Ribs were tender and fell off the bone. It was full of flavor, and the sauce was sweet.

This is in the Assembly Food Hall which is a great place for people with diverse food tastes or a large group. Hubbie had chopped brisket, beans and a bottle coke for $25. Brisket was okay they grab a hunk,chop it fine make it into a ball, place on a bun add sauce. (We are Mission BBQ 2 days earlier..much better). read more

Was planning on getting a platter. Saw how little meat was being placed on them and decided to go with a brisket sandwich instead. Food was cold, bun was stale, and brisket was a little dry. Mac and cheese was okay. Will not be back read more

Food was good! I suggest not going after 8pm because they'll be out of most of the meats. White queso mac and cheese was awesome though!

This place is located inside of Assembly Food Hall, which is a great place with much variety. I went to Honeyfire BBQ and got the brisket dinner tray, with Mac and cheese and cinnamon apples as my sides. They gave me 3 slices of brisket, texas toast, and some pickles and a single onion ring. The brisket had flavor, shredded easily, and was super hot, hence the steam. The Mac and cheese, however, was slightly cold unfortunately. I split this with my friends, and with 2 drinks, the total came up to be around $30. Definitely the right place for Tennessee BBQ after shopping! read more

Unfortunately I was disappointed with the taste and the quality of the meats. I had ordered the build your own: pulled pork, smoked chicken and honeyfire ribs. All 3 meats came out tasting cold, dry and bland without the sauce on top. I had better BBQ meats that tasted so good without the added sauce and coming out piping hot. I guess what do expect ordering it from a food court then. Lesson learned. read more

Food was delicious. I ordered the dry rub hot honey ribs and a side of beans. Definitely recommend

It was delicious! The pimento mac and cheese was a selling point for me. It was quick service and I loved the Assembly Food Hall atmosphere.

Brisket was juicy and tender and side items were a great compliment. Would recommend this bbq spot! Also, there are other food options next to it. Great spot for lunch or dinner! Spacious dining area for larger groups and no wait. read more

Good food and conveniently located near the Museum of African American Music. We enjoyed the Parmesan green beans and I had the baked beans which were mixed and had a nice kick. The Mac & cheese was bland. Ribs and brisket were pretty tasty! read more

Got the kids meal and it was really good! Quick service in line. Only minis was the big fatty chunks in the brisket

Amazing BBQ inside Assembly Food Hall. The food hall is a great location to try a variety of food. You find your own seat and can even enjoy some live music. I decided to go with the nachos this time. Staff put together the meal in front of you so you could customize toppings if you like. The portion was huge and included toppings of white queso, baked beans, and pulled pork. The pulled pork was tender and smoky. My favorite part was the beans which added a bit of sweetness to the nachos. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - WOODROW NACHOS - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

The definition of Meh bbq. Ate there in Nashville tried the Diablo jones which was an oxymoron because it had zero heat. Mac and cheese was basic. Green beans basic. Save yourself $$$ and eat a fast food chain. read more

I didn't expect much from a bbq place in a food court (a really nice food court) but it was convenient and minimal line. They have a build your own platter option with up to 5 different meats. I did the double with sliced brisket and ribs with baked beans and corn pudding. Everything was awesome. My only complaint would be that they don't give you enough bbq to-go. They offered to put it directly on the meat, but I prefer to try it dry first. read more

This is on the 2nd Floor of the Food Assembly Hall. I came here because it looked like the best deal in the entire Food Hall. I believe I was right. For $14, I got a large serving of chips, beans, queso, Pulled Pork, and jalapenos. Dreams do come true. I could not finish it all. Even though it was glorious in size, it lacked flavor. I even had pork skin in the nachos that was just blah. They should offer seasoning salt or BBQ sauce to raise the flavor profile. The beans were watery. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - BBQ nachos - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

It was my first time in Nashville and the first place I went was the Assembly Food Hall. This BBQ spot was the first BBQ I tried. I got the chopped brisket sandwich and it was a little dry and they didn't put much BBQ sauce on it. The upside was that the food was ready essentially right after ordering. This place isn't bad but after trying other popular BBQ spots in Nashville I would recommend venturing out of the food hall. Other places really impressed me. HoneyFire didn't. read more

HoneFire BBQ was a perfect taste of some great southern barbecue. I was indecisive on the best sides and the crew told me to get the sweet corn pudding- they were not wrong. I'd never had a corn pudding and wasn't sure what to expect, but it was excellent. Definitely full of 'corny' flavor, but had a nice texture that kept everything together. The mac and cheese is definitely a BBQ staple and it doesn't disappoint here, either. Those were the highly recommended sides and I will get them again, if I make it back to HoneyFire. Lastly, the brisket was incredible. Wow. Great seasoning. Perfectly cooked. I was torn about the meal at first, but I'm 100% committed to getting it again. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - Brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This location is located in the Assembly Food Hall right towards the middle. Lines can get pretty long and it can be pretty busy during lunch. However, it is worth the wait and the line goes pretty quickly. You order and they make it right in front of you and will have it done at the register. I find their pulled pork to be pretty fantastic. I like to get their Woodrow Nachos ($14.99) which comes with baked beans, queso cheese, pulled pork, sour cream, bbq sauce, and jalapeños. They are pretty generous with their meat serving on top. The whole entire order is pretty large and definitely can be shared. The people working here are pretty quick. There is plenty of seating since it is in the food hall. My only complaint was that I wished they served a fork with it since it can get pretty messy. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - WOODROW NACHOS (it's huge) - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I don't know how this place has such high reviews when it is so meh. I mean, if you check my reviews they are mostly 5 stars. I always want to love a place. And the pictures of this BBQ I saw here before going looked SO GOOD. I got the combo with brisket and sausage, baked beans, and "queso" mac and cheese. There was nothing "queso" about the mac and cheese unless you count that it is in fact the Mexican word for cheese. The baked beans were actually great - will give them that. The brisket looked like it would be super moist, but was super dry. The sausage was better than expected - though I really expected the brisket to be the star. And while I normally like BBQ that doesn't NEED sauce, well, since they smothered the sausage in sauce I figured I'd ask for a side of sauce just in case. I was first told there was an upcharge for BBQ sauce. Seriously? At a BBQ joint (and not a dry rub style joint), you want to charge for sauce?? (She relented and agreed to squirt some sauce on my tray). And then they don't give cups of water - so you'll pay $3 just for some water. $30 all in for a really mediocre lunch. So, fellow Yelpers, just trying to help you out here. There must be better BBQ around here. read more

HoneyFire BBQ - Brisket / sausage, baked beans, mac and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Visited Oct 20, 2023. Came to Assembly Food Hall to find something to eat around 5PM Friday, before attending a concert at Bridgestone. As my party was walking around the food hall the line for HoneyFire was long but moving quickly. I heard good things about this place and wanted to give it a try. HoneyFire is located inside of AssemblyHall near Hōru Sushi Kitchen and Hattie Jane's Creamery. HoneyFire did not disappoint! The signature beef brisket was amazing! I would order it with a side of white queso if you like cheese. The sandwich alone was already good, nicely flavored beef and heedlessly self-indulgent.The red sauce can be a bit much so maybe ask for that on the side. Me being a cheese lover, the queso sauce just elevated the eating experience a little more. I basically inhaled the sandwich. I love veggies therefore the Parmesan green beans was good. The Mac and Cheese my friend ordered lacked and needed more flavor. The woman at the cashier was not so great, the gentleman preparing the food was great, and food I ordered, also great. There isn't much to tell about the ambiance other than they share the hall with other vendors. Their spot in particular is near the liquor bar and live music stage. There's a parking garage near by which fees do vary in price based on local events for the day. The further away you park from the actual building the cheaper it is. read more
