Lunch was delicious - if you walk away hunger then it's your own fault. They were willing to keep bring the family style served food out as long as you wanted. The location was great and fun to hear the stories from our hostess. If in Lynchburg, then make sure you eat here.

I arrived for a fairly late meal (~1:45) so it wasn't super crowded. The parking lot is easy to access. There were a few people eating inside and several carryout orders that occurred during my visit. The inside is adorably decorated in your usual southern bbq joint style -- fun pig memorabilia and whatnot. They have a pretty large selection of bbq and an even larger selection of desserts. In retrospect, I definitely regret not getting a slice of cake or pie to go! I am usually a pulled pork girl, but it is pretty unusual to see smoked pulled chicken -- most places only do half or quarter birds -- and I like pulled chicken a lot, so I ventured out and ordered that! I got the smaller sized plate lunch, which comes with a piece of Texas toast and two sides. I went with curly fries and corn on the cob. Overall, the food was good! The pulled chicken was nice and smoky and the perfect serving size. It was a teeny bit dry but that's typical bbq chicken territory and nothing a good dash of creamy, peppery white bbq sauce couldn't fix. Good sauce! My corn on the cob wasn't super sweet -- probably not quite in season yet -- but it was cooked nicely and very juicy. The fries gave strooooong Arby's vibes such that I think they might actually *be* Arby's fries lol, but there's nothing wrong with that. Especially when they were cooked so fresh and came out hot and crispy! The toast was a lovely buttery companion and my sweet tea was on point. The service here though...THAT gets a 5/5, or really a 10/5 if such a thing were possible. I sometimes feel like southern hospitality is a myth or at least an oversimplification of southern social norms, but at this place it's real and sincere. The woman who took my order -- the owner, I later learned, having purchased the restaurant after years as an employee -- treated me and everyone else who walked in the doors with such warmth, kindness, interest, and attentiveness that it made my entire day. Truly everyone was made to feel so welcome. She catered to some older ladies who came in for a birthday, checked in on me in a nonjudgmental but caring way since I was by myself, and greeted regulars with a smile and by their name. She made the place feel like joy! Definitely give this place a go and enjoy the tasty food and wonderful folks. I'd happily return.

10/10--absolutely worth the stop!…read more If you're heading to Lynchburg for the Jack Daniel's Distillery (or any of the nearby whiskey distilleries), do yourself a favor and eat at Barrel House BBQ afterward. First things first: if you're a die-hard brisket lover, just know they don't serve brisket. But honestly? Their ribs more than make up for it. Coming from Florida, where truly great, non-franchise barbecue can be hard to find, we're always excited to try local BBQ when we travel. Barrel House absolutely exceeded our expectations. We ordered the three-meat platter with sides (and couldn't resist adding a couple of extras), and every single bite was fantastic. The meats were tender and juicy, nothing was dry, and the barbecue sauce was incredible. What really made the experience stand out was the atmosphere. It's a small, tucked-away hole-in-the-wall that feels welcoming the moment you walk in. You can grab a marker and sign the walls, which was a fun touch, and they also encourage guests to leave signed dollar bills that are donated to a charitable cause each year. It's those little details that make places memorable. The owner (or manager--I never did ask which) was outstanding. Even during a busy lunch rush, he was everywhere at once--helping customers, running food, supporting his staff, and making sure everyone was taken care of. You could tell he genuinely cared about both his employees and his guests. Sometimes the best restaurants are the ones hiding down a side street, and this place proves it. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in Lynchburg. Highly recommend!

Loved the location of this place. Spacious and roomy. Plenty of seating…read more The service was great, very fast, attentive and efficient. The waitress was friendly and gave some amazing recommendations!! The sandwich was a nice touch. Very original and filling. Their potato salad was one of the better ones I've had in a long, long time. The vinegar slaw was great and original as well. Nicely done. The best part of this meal were the ribs. I have got to say that these were the best ribs I've ever had in my life. And, let me tell you... I've had a lot of ribs... the meat just melted off the bones. The flavor was next level. And, the proportions of meat to bone are ones I've never seen in my life, not even at a backyard barbecue. If you haven't been and are in the area, go check it out!!! You won't be disappointed. Ah-mazing!!!

The brisket is up there with the best we've had in middle TN where we've ranged from Blake's to Shaffer Farms to most of places in and around Nashville. My wife said the turkey was hands down the best ever. It's a market style place so you pick the meats and how much you want. They sliced generously so we had plenty of left overs for another meal. The sides are a bargain at $4 and twice the size of most places. They are having issues with the space so make sure check their social media on timing in their impending move to a new location down the street.

The plate had both lean and moist cuts giving you a nice comparison. The lean brisket was delicious with a very small top line of fat, great color, and very tender. The moist cut had an incredible flavor and the marbling made this truly melt in your mouth. The bark is solid on both cuts with great spice and just enough smoke to compliment the meat. The jalapeño cheddar sausage is very mild and has good flavor. The potato salad is a bit different...very creamy and has cheddar cheese in it. The renovations are well done on the space keeping some of the old vibe and brick while making it comfortable and inviting. Really good food, picturesque location, and great people who were super friendly. The grand opening is scheduled for September 20.

EagleVille is our preferred location thus far as we like the smaller scale quaint feel that it exudes. Their interior esthetics is special -- pretty cool hats as well! They are crushing it!! The best part of G.C. is the fact that they love our country & that is clearly demonstrated via their restaurant events. U.S.A. Their sticky buns are incredible (I have tasted many) -- these are truly the best!!! Also, their waffles, sandwiches & lattes are delicious! Their staff is very welcoming & they make folks feel right at home. Entrepreneurship is a beautiful thing, it runs deep in my own family, hence I have a lot of appreciation for family businesses.
