Kinda an odd experience. Ordered brisket. Looked and smelled really good. After waiting for about 5 minutes for someone to come to the counter. He's placing the brisket in my serving box and says. "Oh, by the way we are out of sauce." I arrived just before 2:00 PM. I asked for a cup for the soda machine, that's not working. Choice is Coke or Sprite. The collard greens were the only side they had left. They were good. Brisket had a nice smoke taste but could have used a little sauce. I can't remember going to a bbq place that has run out of sauce. I also can't remember ordering an entree and not getting at least 1 side included in the price. I was charged for a small greens after paying $31 for the brisket. Maybe I tried them on an off day. read more

Horn Barbecue - Brisket and greens. $36 with a soda. I know bbq is not cheap, but.... - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

ANOTHER LOCATION - HE'S BACK I ate at the original location at West Oakland about four years ago. During my only time eating there I had the best BBQ experience ever. The spareribs tasted like pork candy. The brisket melted in my mouth. The sausage had that snap when you took a bite. When the West Oakland location closed I ate at the Old Oakland location twice. Both times I had two subpar meals. I was disappointed because the best BBQ I ever had was at Horn Barbecue in West Oakland. I wasn't sure if I was going to come back to Horn Barbecue again. What changed? I got an inKind app, which included a $25 reward. Also I decided to give the Lafayette location a try. The first time I came here was on a Saturday night in March. Beef ribs are available on Saturdays only, but when I got to the front of the line they were out. Also sold out was the beef sausage. What I ate consisted of large coleslaw, 1 lb of pork ribs, 1 lb of brisket, and cheddar sausage. My initial taste of the pork ribs reminded me of the experience I had at the West Oakland location. The brisket was moist and the cheddar sausage had the snap. The next time I came to back to this location was the following Saturday during St. Patrick's Day weekend at 11:00 AM. I wanted the beef rib. I was able to get a beef rib that weighed almost two pounds. In addition I decided to get a pulled pork sandwich. I am not a fan of pulled pork because it tends to be stringy and dry. At Horn Barbecue not only did I get a fatty portion of the pulled pork but also the drizzle of the BBQ sauce. As someone who hates pulled pork the pulled pork sandwich at Horn Barbecue is the best pulled pork I ever had. I was impressed with the pork ribs, beef rib, and pulled pork. What about the chicken? I came here on a weekday for half chicken. Maybe this is not fair but the best BBQ chickens I've eaten were in Hawaii. The half chickens I've eaten at Horn Barbecue are smoky and flavorful but not as juicy as the huli-huli chickens I ate in Hawaii. Even though I enjoyed my multiple visits at this location I couldn't give this place a 5-star rating because my first and only visit at original location was special. read more

I really struggled with deciding whether or not to give this three or four stars. Consider this a 3 1/2 star rating. To start, service was excellent! The cashier provided me with some general updates about the business, including them getting taps installed for beer. I had a lot of food to carry outside and she also helped me carry everything out without me needing to ask. I really appreciate that! The employee serving the food suggested that I order a whole pound of the beef rib since it is only offered on Saturdays. I had originally requested just 1/4lb of it to try and he said that I would only get a taste and suggested I get the whole rib. He also made additional recommendations for how to enjoy the leftovers. In total, here's what we ordered : one beef rib for $49.50, one beef brisket sandwich, one pulled pork sandwich, a large mac & cheese, a large collard greens, and a large potato salad. Total came to $120~, not including tip. I am highlighting the beef rib because I am honestly disappointed that I didn't speak up when I was at the restaurant. Our food was plated, and we went outside to eat. As soon as I cut into the beef rib, my boyfriend and I quickly realized that it was almost entirely fat (I'm adding the pic to this review)! Not only do I feel like I'm paying for the weight of the bone but now I feel like I got barely 1/4lb of meat and paid $50 for it. That truly felt like I was being taken advantage of. If there were specific items that were only available by the pound, they should also advertise it as such. But it was advertised that you could get smaller portions to try. Even with that being said, how can you possibly charge someone $50 for a pound of fat?! The sandwiches and sides themselves were different. They were all so good and incredibly flavorful. Both sandwiches were stacked with meat and they were not fatty at all. If I ever decide to return, I would not be getting the actual barbecued meat because I do not trust the quality of what I'm receiving. However, I would recommend the sandwiches. They are also in an affordable price, ranging from $15-$20. The sides are also reasonably priced - $5 for the small and $9 for the large. read more

I visited right before lunch time and wanted to try several items but they were out of sausages and tri-tip sandwiches so I had to pivot. I'll be back for those. Ended up ordering brisket, pulled pork, and several small sides (beans, potato salad, and mac & cheese) to share. The beans had large pieces of meat in it which was great. The potato salad tasted more egg-y than other potato salads and I liked that too! The barbecue sauce was more on the vinegar side which is different than usual and I loved it! If I had to critique something: I would have liked to have more pickled veggies included to match the proportion of meat. I was a bit surprised to have paid almost $100 but it ended up lasting a few meals and was delicious. The prices have gone up since the last menu pictures posted on yelp and are ~20% more than other chain barbecue places but can be justified by the fact that the Oakland location is rated Bib Gourmand on the Michelin guide. It definitely tasted good quality. The parking lot is meter enforced and there is very limited street parking. read more

Horn Barbecue - Menu July 2025 - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

I had high hopes for Horn Barbecue given the hype surrounding this place when it first opened up in Oakland. Maybe something changed after they moved to Lafayette, but it wasn't that good. Got there a little before opening since we were expecting a line, but there wasn't one. Ending up trying a few things: beef rib, brisket, pulled pork, cheddar sausage, pit beans. The pit beans had a lot of meat but were on the saltier side. Cheddar sausage was juicy and had a good bite. Pulled pork was good. Nicely seasoned, and the barbecue sauce paired nicely with it. Probably my favorite meat out of the ones I tried. The brisket and beef rib were on the drier side. I wish they were juicier. The brisket was tough. It wasn't a melt in your mouth type of meat that I expected. The staff are amazing. Super friendly and patient. However, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. read more

Wow, we've added Horn BBQ to the short list of amazing places. To be clear, it won't be amazing to everyone. As the header states, rustic BBQ. Simple menu, no flash, just outstanding food. We waited about 20 minutes in line. The two guys serving food were engaging, personable, and truly loved their craft. The person who got us our sides was delightful as well. The meat is so tender, that for the brisket or pulled pork, it's kneaded or pulled (respectively). No knives for that. We had brisket sandwiches, ribs, cheesy potatoes and pit beans. All were delicious, but the beans were especially amazing. Louisiana Hot Sauce: yes, the right thing to do. Like any good BBQ, there are some process oddities. Why are the fountain drinks where everyone is in the queue? And perhaps a menu all could see in advance would speed up the line. And the rolls of napkins are not very convenient. That being said, who cares? It's a wonderful place. Like I said, some won't like it. For them, Sauced in Walnut Creek will be a better fit: totally ok food, ok service, ok experience. Horn BBQ, thanks for all that you do! read more

So my fiancé and I were going to come here for my birthday dinner but we walked in and saw that there was SOOOOOOO many flies and it looks like an open cooking situation and they have the meat sitting there. Along with the flies, there were also out of practically every meat option they had (plus out of sides also). These two things made us walk right out the door because we both got turned off from the flies and lack of options. This place is also alongside a brewery so it seems like a decent place to go if you end up wanting to eat here, but didn't seem like a great place for us. read more

The food was banging. So delicious and melts in your mouth brisket, Mac and cheese, and potato salad. Got the hot link too which was fire. The interior is a little dull with black walls and not much art, but very on brand with a bbq joint. The menu is awkwardly on the left side of the wall instead of behind the workers as they make the food, which makes you focus on the wall behind the workers when they make your food. The workers don't seem terribly happy to be working, which is unfortunate because the food is so delicious! Not sure what's going on with the morale there. Food is pricey. Not a spot I'd come for a weeknight dinner but more of special occasion. They have limited parking in their lot or on the street. read more

We went on a Friday afternoon, after 2pm - perfect timing for a relaxing and well attended experience. This location offers many tables and greets its patrons with nice choice of blues music. I had a brisket sandwich and my friend had the half chicken. Man, that sammie was tender, flavorful and satisfying. My friend said the chicken was yummy and tender as well. After we finished, we had the pleasure of meeting Matt and his brother afterwards and chatted a bit, reminiscing about the old Emeryville location (where I live). I miss it dearly, but luckily, this location isn't far. I will be visiting again! Looking forward to a decadent "wagyu-type" brisket offering :-) read more

The beef rib was Juicy , salted perfectly, and tender. The black pepper crust brought out so much flavor in the meat. The brisket was tender as well. The slice was fatty yet lean. Dipped in the bbq sauce, this was a yummy combo. The mac and cheese was gooey and baked to perfection. Last words.. A bit pricy $$, but you're paying for quality. read more

Horn Barbecue - Brisket , greens, pulled pork and potato salad!! - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

**3.5 Stars** East Bay BBQ Fans of Texas-style BBQ have inevitably heard of Horn Barbecue based in Oakland and helmed by Pitmaster Matt Horn I've never been to the original location and have read tidbits about the recent press issues but decided to stop by one of their newer locations and try for myself The Lafayette space has been open a little less than a year (Dec 2024) and their Elk Grove location just opened (June 2025) with another fourth location already planned. It's clear Horn is doing well and in expansion mode. I stopped by for dinner and many items were sold out including the Beef Rib (Sat only), multiple sides, and banana cream pie. Luckily, they still had brisket (both fatty and lean), pork ribs and shredded pork Manning the station was Jordan Horn, the brother of Matt Horn and he was personable and funny talking about the expanding business and favorites of guests We sampled the fatty brisket, pork ribs, and pulled pork and had a side of mac 'n cheese. Everything was solid. The brisket was flavorful but would have loved it more moist and tender. Similar with the pork ribs. Pulled pork was similar to other places but definitely had to lean more into their supplied bbq sauce Admittedly, we came at end of day and the brisket had probably finished hours before. Jordan also gave some great pointers on how to order next time and I appreciate that. For barbeque fans, it's nice to have another option in East Bay (especially one that serves beef ribs) and not have to travel to Oakland. Prime Brisket $38 per lb / Spare Ribs $34 per lb / Beef Rib (Sat only) $38 lb / Pulled Pork $27 per lb / Mac & Cheese $5 small Horn Barbeque (Lafayette, CA) There is indoor and outdoor seating. All credit cards are accepted. Walk in only. read more

We drove from Campbell to try this place, as the desire to find quality BBQ is very strong. Sadly, we were somewhat disappointed. We arrived at 6 pm and they were announcing they didn't have any ribs left. We ordered 1lb of brisket ($40/lb), coleslaw, potato salad, and mac-n-cheese. The meat looks lovely but it didn't have any smokiness and it was somewhat dry. It wasn't tender even though it looked like it. Pouring more sauce on it didn't help much. The coleslaw was good. It had a nice vinegar/mustard flavor and was better than most we've had. We were thankful it wasn't thick with mayonnaise. The potato salad was pretty good too. It was creamy and the potato pieces were of good size. We would've liked some more onion and maybe a little less creamy. The mac-n-cheese was a disappointment. It was overcooked and the cheese mixture wasn't creamy nor flavorful. Finding good quality mac-n-cheese with real cheddar and a crisp top is hard to find. The staff is very nice but the interior is REALLY smokey. To the point of making our eyes water instantly. The chairs are the usual metal hard simple chairs and we had to eat outside due to the smoke inside. There were no paper towel rolls outside but at least we found seating. One disappointment is that they had their catering van in the handicap parking space and there was only one other in a higher level of the parking lot. We are quite picky about our bbq and this just didn't have a shining star with what we tried. For $40/lb, the expectation was pretty high and was not met. We left the restaurant and went for additional eating at The Hideout Kitchen. read more

I heard good things about this place. I really wanted to like it. Not saying that I was totally against it. The meat was delicious. Very tender, with good sauce. The greens were extremely salty. I couldn't even eat them. I did enjoy the potato salad and Mac n cheese. I was there shortly after opening hours. I wanted a brisket sandwich and was disappointed to learn they were out of buns. You will have to make sure you have time to spare. The service was not great at all. It became crowded fast! A very long line. Only one person taking orders, preparing the orders and cashing them out. There is plenty of seating, inside and outside. Food is priced by weight. Two ribs were $20. With a sausage, greens and beans the total was $50. read more

Horn Barbecue - Brisket Ribs Slaw Beans - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

Service: Overall very very very poor. There was roughly 6 parties ahead of my when we came in at 12 PM this past Saturday. The line didn't get to me until 50 minutes later. I have never seen a BBQ place move this slow and easily resulted in me wanting to dislike the food before I even tried it. Two ladies behind me gave up and left the line after 30 minutes. Food: This is where my review gets challenging. I really wanted to dislike the food because of the wait, but it was really good! Brisket needs more smoke, but it was tender. Pulled pork was excellent. Mac and cheese was balanced well. The potato's were cooked just right with a perfect amount of cheese blending over the top. The BBQ sauce looks 100% in-house made and tasted incredible! Food: 8.4/10 Overall: 6.5/10 Zero chance I'd ever not order ahead of time and pickup. read more

We ordered takeout from here and ate it right away after we got back. Like people have said, the operations need a bit of work as there's just one person taking and prepping the order which causes the long line. If they had a couple more hands to help out, it will go a lot faster. That being said on to the food! We went with 1 lb of brisket, 1 lb ribs, hot link, mac and cheese. And they gave us a few slices of bread and pickled onions. The brisket is the thick cut kind with leaner cut of meat. It has a nice, smokey taste to it but the bbq sauce really makes it super flavorful. The ribs were good and I found that they tasted even better when we reheated them later. Sausage was good. Mac and cheese was great though! All of this came to about $80-90 so on the pricey side (and no prices on the wall Menu) but we ended up eating it in 1-2 meals so decent for that read more

Woohoo!!! Thank you Horn for coming over to this side of the tunnel. As luck would have it, my friend and I were early to arrive (just after 5pm) and were #5 and 6 in line inside the building of this most raved about BBQ restaurant. There have been several BBQs in this location so hopefully this one will stick given all the press and accolades. Watching folks order and the precision that is taken in the carving is a show on its own. I will say, having only one carving station really presses my patience especially because we all know how popular this place is. Regardless, I had time to ponder what to order and ended up with one pound of brisket, one jalapeno cheddar sausage (homemade) and a small side of mac and cheese. When the Carver opened up a new brisket, I was amazed at the bark. It's a thing of beauty. When I got home and took my first bite standing in my kitchen, the first thing that hit me was the all the flavor in the bark. Wow! Now, my preference on brisket is for the more fatter juicier parts and my order had a combo of both because this is how the guy slices it. I wonder if I can specify next time? The sausage was a little dry for me and not spicy in my bites. Hubby got a little hot bite though. The best bites included some Mac and cheese and meat. Yummy! The parking lot is pay as well as the street parking of which there is plenty. So happy to have Horn nearby. Please support this local business. read more

Oh man. I've lived in Lafayette for years and have never been so excited for a restaurant opening. Matt Horn and team are pros and they deliver on their well earned reputation. Order literally anything off the menu and know it will be great. They managed the opening day rush and sold out early but paid close attention to the line and made sure to shut the doors so customers wouldn't wait in line and be turned away. They sold out three hours early. We sampled everything that was still available and will be back to try what had already sold out. The brisket is amazing. The pulled pork is very well done. My surprise favorite is how well they prepare the chicken. So moist and with great flavor. My favorite side is the Mac n Cheese but the pit beans were a must try surprise as well. The seating is ample and they have Arizona Ice tea, Topo Chico, and Pepsi products on tap. You stand in line to order at the counter and they slice and weigh your portions fresh to order. I hope this place is in Lafayette for a very long time. I know they will draw consistent crowds. Go early and bring your appetite!! read more

Food was really good. Line way out the door even before they opened. You'd think that was a good thing, but actually pretty concerning. Everyone was nice and patient today as the place recently opened and I think people expect them to work out the kinks, but honestly the wait is problematic. I was tempted to give them a 2 or 3 rating but I don't want to hurt a newly moved biz. The people there were super nice as well, which makes this even more tragic. This is 100% on ownership... they NEED to redo the way the line is set up. There is room for two stations, have two people working side by side to cut/weigh the meat! As it is, you have literally 3 or so workers just waiting at the cashier/sides stations and walking around the floor, doing nothing but waiting for the poor guy who has to do all the order-taking, meat-cutting and weighing, and meat/onion prep. This is insanely inefficient. One of those efficiency line-analysts like they have at Toyota would have a stroke watching this lol! I'm not even kidding, you could easily double the speed of the line by simply adding one more person to cut/weigh meat. Just divide the existing cutting board space in two or add another board. Hate to go on and on about it but it's actually pretty aggravating to see this level of inefficiency and all the workers looking visibly uncomfortable with how slow things are going. read more

Horn Barbecue - Excuse the weird lighting... that's actually mac and cheese in the foreground. And also slaw, cheddar link, and brisket in the background. - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

Need a 3.5 star option. Servers were nice. Ambience was nice. Place was clean. It took forever to get to the front and order and there were only 10 people ahead of us. And mostly one person working behind counter. It took us 35 minutes and it would have been longer if the second worker hadn't appeared. Ribs were pretty good. Not quite fall off bone but still good and tasty. I really liked the hot link. Mac n Cheese was a solid 8.5. Collards had a great taste and approximately two gallons of salt. I see this comment from others from months ago so maybe rethink your recipe? I would try again but might phone order. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon looking for a hearty meal and were not disappointed. After looking at the menu for a little more than a split second, we were approached by someone behind counter asking if we needed help ordering. We showed them a picture we had seen in Yelp (by Eric G. - first yelp pic check it out) and lo and behold Eric served the platter of food himself. The food was excellent: full of flavor, so tender the meat fell off the bone. Two delicious sides: house greens and mac n cheese, both perfect compliments to the table of meats! Will definitely come back again, with friends and family. Make sure to try this incredible BBQ spot in Lafayette. P.S. they play great music and the outdoor seating makes for a great time! read more

Fantastic experience! Food was delicious and everyone was so friendly. Our favorite was the brisket sandwich but we also really loved the ribs, beans, and cheesy potatoes. The core thing about this place is the food, but there are some interesting processes. Menu isn't in the ideal location to read and soda machine is next to where the line is. Love the placement of the paper towels and it makes it extremely easy to get napkins. Small thing but some wipes would've been extremely helpful at the end or even a sink to wash your hands.

Horn Barbecue - Desserts Near Me - Lafayette, California

My husband frequented the Oakland location many times, and has been telling me about it forever. He found out there was a location in Lafayette, and couldn't get me there fast enough. Upon driving up, there was plenty of parking. The area is nice, and traffic seems to flow nicely. Upon entry, I saw a covered patio and a nice big seating area. We were greeted fairly quickly, and upon chatting with guy, we found out he is the brother of the guy who runs Oakland location. It's a growing family business, and my husband was very pleased to see the family business expand. While ordering, I loved the music. I literally couldn't stop dancing to it, it made for a great atmosphere. The menu is simple: meats, sides, dessert & drinks. Meats are ordered by weight or in a sandwich. We ordered a-la-carte pulled pork & brisket with large sides of beans, collards, and mac & cheese. We got our food to go, but dug in at the shop with the rest left for our dinner. They included plates, silverware and bbq sauce on the side. Let me just say - FABULOUS! The meat was perfectly cooked. Flavorful, tender and juicy. All the sides were equally delicious. I don't think I've ever (until today!!!) gone to a bbq place and said I loved every single thing I ate. This is now my favorite bbq spot. I hadn't declared a fav bbq spot ever, so this is sayin something. I cannot wait to visit this spot again, and highly recommend any dear readers to make a visit as well. read more

This was my first time, I have heard about Horn in Oakland and was happy to see them in Lafayette. They seem to be on the expensive side, I spend about $70 on my order see below, but it was very good. One issue they need to fix is serving the meats warm. They keep the meats in a hot box but it was not hot when served. I ordered: Spare Ribs (4.5 Stars, $37.40 for 5 ribs) They were cooked perfectly. Good smoke rig. The meat came off the bone easily, but not so easy it feel off. The flavor was awesome! Brisket (4 Stars, $11.40, 1 slice was .3 lbs) The top part was soft and flavorfull, but the bottom was a little dry but still good. Mac & Cheese (4.5 Stars,$5) They used a good quality pasta, a large elbow, that was pillowy soft. The cheese sauce was really good and cover everything. They topped it with sharp cheddar. Good stuff! Potato Salad (4.5 Stars, $5) It was a red potatoe salad with green onion, egg, and dressing. It was perfectly put together, very good! Banana Pudding (4 stars) Solid dessert, banana pudding on top of vanilla wafers and a few crumped on top. Until next time... Next time try: Mash potatoes Jalapeno cheddar sausage Pulled Pork Sandwich read more

Hands down the best BBQ I've had in Northern California. I've eaten at top spots in Austin and Lockhart, Texas--including several from Texas Monthly's top BBQ list--and Horn Barbecue holds its own. The brisket and pulled pork were the standouts: tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. All the sides were solid, and I'd honestly come back just for the mac and cheese. The pickled onions were a great touch, too. It was a hot day, and it got pretty warm inside--would've loved to sit outside, but all those tables were full. At least they had baseball on the TVs inside, which helped. The banana pudding was sold out, but I'll definitely be back to try it. read more

This building is cursed. No bbq joint is able to survive since Bo's shut down. This place needs to be investigated by the health department immediately. I am not saying this to be mean or as a joke. There are flies everywhere. There were hundreds of flies in the restaurant. On the windows, the tables, the soda machine, the light fixtures, the food counter. Luckily the meats are put away and the sides are covered. Please look at the other more recent reviews as this is a recurring issue. Additionally, they have had their alcohol license suspended. We tried to get water to drink. The water is contaminated by another drink as it came out pink. The diet Pepsi just spouts out carbonated water. 2 of the items we ordered, collared greens and mac, required utensils to eat. We were told there are no utensils. We couldn't get through a quarter of our food before we decided it was in our best interest to dispose of our food and leave. We will not be returning. read more

The origin of the Horn BBQ follows a young Yelper Paul F, a humble foodie, who inherits a powerful fork that must be destroyed to prevent the dark lord SoySauce from conquering the East Bay. Alongside a fellowship of allies, Paul F journeys to the fiery Mount Diablo where a BBQ Pit was forged. Along the way, Paul F found a lost kitten, frozen bologna and a hungry lady that test his courage and loyalty. While Paul F and his friend Sam push forward on their secret mission, others like Aragorn, Legolas, and Gandalf lead Yelpers against SoySauce forces. In the end, the fork was destroyed, great BBQ meats were eaten, and peace begins to return to the land of the East Bay as finally a great brisket was found. read more
