The menus are covered in marker and hand writing. So obviously their prices were even cheaper at one point! 2 people was $24. They make all their BBQ in their pit right outside. Of course I got the BBQ jumbo sandwich. Which if you are hungry the jumbo isn't that large. You'll need some fries with it. Standard comes with pickles and chips. Bathrooms were surprisingly clean. I think east coasters are just pigs. There's been so many clean bathrooms out here. So try this place if you are somewhere near here but I cannot say drive out h

Clarendon is a small town (pop less than 1900), and Bendi's is a popular place. Peggy brought menus and coffee. My western omelet (w sausage chunks), home fries and toast, was excellent. Pig Feets had scrambled, pork chops, and a biscuit. Loved it. Prices ridiculous. His bill, w coffee, was $11. Mine $12.50. We both agreed everything was excellent, w the notable exception of coffee... very weak. But Clarendon seems like the type of town where they like their women strong and coffee weak.

After a while my "smoked chicken" arrived along with the shrimp my friend had picked. I have eaten smoked half chickens many times in the past at many BBQ restaurants. They always come from the kitchen with rich, dark skin which has been coated with BBQ sauce. This came to the table with pale, watery residue surrounding a thin tough bird. The bird had been boiled and never was smoked. I think this particular bird was one half of a tough old rooster. It was hard to dismember and offered very little edible meat. It may as well have been a rubber chicken. I will never go back or recommend this place to anyone else.

As a northerner stepping into a Southern-style spot, I have to agree with another Yelp reviewer…read moreabout the sweet tea. It's not that true Southern sweet tea you hear legends about -- the kind that practically hugs your soul and spikes your dentist's anxiety -- but honestly, it's not bad at all if you're trying to watch your sugar. Consider it "Midwest sweet." Polite. Respectable. Not trying to put you into a sugar coma. Now let's talk food. My kiddos ordered the popcorn chicken and mini dogs -- and as any parent knows, the highest culinary honor is the empty plate. They ate every last bite. From my 5-year-old, that's basically a Michelin star review. My husband had the BBQ burger. When asked for a detailed description, I received his usual top-tier food critique vocabulary: "It was good." I ordered the BBQ bacon chicken with tots. The tater tots deserve their own moment -- perfectly crisp, not oily, and seasoned just right. The chicken itself leaned a little on the dry side, but the BBQ sauce definitely stepped in and saved the day. Overall? I'd definitely stop here again -- especially over chain restaurant which seem to be the only other commonly options in the next town over. This place feels like the better pick when you want something satisfying without the big-chain blah.

Pulled pork had great smoke flavor and paired well with the Carolina sauce. The smoked sausage was good and paired well with the house original bbq sauce. They also had an assortment of mayo and burger sauce that went well with the burger and fries. Look forward to going back. I know my son was upset when he found out I went there without him.
