This place seems to be almost a staple of our visits to Williamsburg!…read more The food here is just very delicious overall. We have yet to come here and not be satisfied or happy to have visited. This is another one of those Williamsburg gems that is totally worth visiting if you're a BBQ type person. The prices are reasonable-ish for the food type and service has always been outstanding for us. Between the decent beer selection, craft drinks and great bbq, this is another (one of the many) food places that are a must-visit to Williamsburg! Regarding parking, make sure you park in the back area. GPS always seems to want to put you in the front where there isn't a lot of parking available. Food Taste: 5 Overall Service: 5 Value of service to cost: 5 Facility: 5 Ambiance: Simple restaurant feel, with mild decor for the ambiance and theme. Repeat customer: yes Dog Friendly: no

They even landed a spot on Channel 13's Friday Flavor segment years back. Let's see how the food turned out. There was a decent crowd inside when we walked inside. The decor was nice and clean. Again, the restaurant's been around for years, but it's definitely well kept. Just like other BBQ spots, you have to order up front. On the right, the menu's on the board to choose from. It took us minutes to select our respective meals, but at the end of the day, we were ready. For my order, I selected a dinner size plate of beef brisket with a side of fried pickles. All was quite delicious. The brisket was cooked perfectly and went well with both BBQ sauces from Scoot's. And I liked their fried pickles were actually small spears. Fried and not too much sodium. Sophia ordered a brisket sandwich with fried pickles and enjoyed her selection. A very good first time for the both of us. This won't be the last time we'll be here. Till next time :)

Unfortunately, they were out of the burnt ends, but we had no trouble finding plenty of other delicious options. Everything we tried was outstanding--from the ribs and wings to the hush puppies, cookies, and pie. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would definitely come back. Highly recommended!

We literally meant to go next door to the Mexican Restaurant but went in the wrong door! Why did we stay? The place next door was closed! Plus Hubby wanted a beer and we had to use the restroom during our travels. "Big mistake! Huge!" As Julia Robert's from Pretty Woman would say! But there was nothing pretty about this place. We didn't want to order any food... but I ordered something that I thought was a safe bet and they couldn't mess up... a quesadilla... did I mention we meant to go the the Mexican place next door? We waited like 20 minutes and nothing... the server who had taken our order came to the table and asked if we ordered. We were like yeah, about 20 minutes ago. He must have been high because he goes.. "my bad, I forgot to tell the kitchen". Forget dude... and we were out! Then he goes outside for a smoke! For realz!! The restrooms were disgusting. Trash runneth over and the floors were filthy! Ugh! Nuff said!! There were a few tables outside, but from there you can smell the refinery/paper mill which assaults the olfactory receptors ! P-U, stinky... which may come from the word PUtrid?? You etymologists let me know! So basically you're damned if you sit inside or out! Hemingway, despite the 4 TVs, the drinks specials, the tiki bar in the back (which looks haunted) , the party atmosphere becomes deflated and overshadowed by the dank and grody environment and the horrific service, or should I say, lack thereof. If you're desperadoes, like we were, you MIGHT venture into this dim cave, but I say... keep going... not lovin' Lovells!!

I have never tasted ranch so good in my life. Whatever secret recipe they've got going on, it's pure gold. Everything is homemade, and you can tell this little barbecue spot knows their craft. It's the kind of place that makes you want to lick your fingers and smile between bites; I even did the happy food dance! Olde Towne Smokehouse, you've officially won our hearts!

There's a small seating area for roughly 12 people that is air conditioned, as well as an outdoor area. Service is spectacular. Super friendly and patient! The food - you can tell lots of love goes into this grub! We got a half a one of pulled pork, a small onion ring, and a catfish sandwich that came with a side. We opted for baked beans that were hearty and delicious. A generous portion for sure. The catfish is absolutely fantastic- highly recommend!!!! Comes with all the toppings. Get the pickled red onion. The pulled pork was tender and wonderful. Onion rings were tasty too. The sauces are also all great. I wish we lived closer and weren't just traveling. This would be on regular rotation! Don't skip this. Just get here. So so good!!!

The fries serving size wasn't as full as I've seen other pictures from previous posts. The bbq was definitely on point with the smokiness and plenty of flavor. Next time I'll try the wings and ribs.

Love back road trips to find places just like Chad's Dad's BBQ!! Super welcoming when I arrived…read moreand took my time to look over an amazing menu! Great vibe here and graciously answered all the questions as I finalized my choice. I know, I know why smoked kielbasa out of everything, well it is something I used to do as a kid with my grandfather in making and smoking our own so I like to enjoy it when I see it on a menu knowing it isn't some mass produced madness, a thing one can normally find in small BBQ places like Chad's. Great combo with the sandwich (hoagie roll available with sub option as well) with grilled onions & peppers. Love a good green bean so why not when they are smoked! Good smokey flavor for both items and washed it down with a sweet tea. Small parking lot out front to use and picnic table seating (outside only) with umbrellas to keep you out of the sun! If you are ever passing through this area, make sure to visit Chad's Dad to enjoy a good smoked meal with some amazing sauces!!
