    This hit the spot! Stopped for a quick lunch and craving bbq. Pulled pork sandwich was excellent…read morewith soft, clean pulls of pork cooked perfectly along with your choice of four sauces. Fries were big, crispy and oh so soft in the middle. Coleslaw was a little heavy on the mayonnaise for my taste but not bad. Husband got the slider trio of pork, chicken and brisket (love that!) and declared chicken as his favorite. Didn't realize there were other locations so we'll keep an eye out for that!

    We stopped in around 3:30 PM, and the restaurant was completely empty when we arrived. Our entire…read moreparty ordered brisket in different forms--two brisket plates, one brisket sandwich, and 1 lb of brisket. Unfortunately, the brisket was the biggest disappointment. It was supposed to be sliced on two orders, but every order looked more like chopped brisket than properly sliced. Coming from California, brisket is something we order regularly, so we were surprised by the quality. It was very dry, not served hot, and honestly the worst brisket we've had. We were really looking forward to it, but it missed the mark. The sides were a mixed bag. The baked beans were actually very good, according to those in our group, and the fries were fresh, hot, and crispy. The mac and cheese was just okay. One bright spot was the young woman working the counter. She was friendly, welcoming, and provided great customer service, which we really appreciated. Overall, while the service was pleasant, the brisket was disappointing enough that we wouldn't return or recommend it, especially if you're visiting for the brisket!

    I always try to hit iconic and historic BBQ joints as I travel. Sprayberry's BBQ in Newnan is such…read morea place. One of my favorite southern humorist, Lewis Grizzard often mentioned Sprayberry's in his books and columns. In business for 100 years, it truly is a part of Georgia BBQ history. As I usually do when I visit, I got the Lewis Grizzard special, a chopped pork sandwich, onion rings & Brunswick Stew. All tasted great. If you like a very thick, smooth consistency stew, you will likely enjoy their version. It was about 2:30 on a Wednesday afternoon, yet there were several other diners in the restaurant. The staff was pleasant, professional and accommodating, even coming outside and offering to take my picture as I was shooting pix of the location outside...Southern hospitality at its best. The interior includes several pictures from the restaurants and local celebrities who have dined there, including country music legend Alan Jackson & author Lewis Grizzard. If you're in the mood for chopped or sliced bbq, ribs, or chicken, check them out if you're passing through Newnan, GA.

The server was a poorly trained high school girl who rushed us thru the whole meal and sat at the counter with her back to us eating her dinner. The dirty dishes were left sitting in front of us but we wanted to linger for conversation so, when I could not get her attention, I moved the dishes to an empty table myself. Beer and wine service would be nice too. A shame because the food is top notch.
