Terrific new BBQ spot in Dover. BBQ was delicious, cole slaw and Maci cheese wonderful. Brisket sandwich delicious. I like that the tables have many kinds of sauce to doctor up your meat. Clean, lots of staff, nice bathroom! Friendly farmhouse seating, seasonal outdoor seating and a party room. Recommend! read more

See all

The food is great. The pulled chicken is delicious as well as the cornbread. But what truly puts this place over the top is the service. The staff are welcoming and friendly as well as accommodating. They take the time to interact with the customers, coming around to the tables to make sure everyone is ok. Will definitely be back. read more

Mission BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Awesome food and great service. Definitely recommend the Salmon. My go to spot in Dover for BBQ

it is a fast food place and way over priced for the food. it is fast food. not BBQ

Never disappoints. Food is always tender and tasty. Staff is usually quick and efficient.

Great little place, had the baby back ribs and they were some of the best I've ever had. Glad I stopped here. The North Carolina vinegar was delicious on the ribs. Lots of seating and a military/law enforcement decorative theme. Good spot to stop at if you're in Dover. read more

This establishment took such great pride on one word- service. Top notch food service for my family and my self and top notch respect to those who serve our country. It was a breath of fresh air to see the love showed to our military personnel and other civil servants while having some delicious food here. The pulled pork and brisket was extremely good as were the sides but the real kicker are the sauces.. West Virignias and Texas were the most delicious in my opinion. Somewhere a bald eagle shed a tear as did I by stopping here. Definitely going to come back each time we head down the coast. Thank you Mission BBQ! read more

Everything is great, the sauces offer such variety! First time to this chain and the guy at the counter took the time to explain the flavor profiles of all the sauces and gave me 2 of each to try with our meals. And inside smells heavenly! read more

I had wanted to eat here for a very long time and finally made it there for dinner! I had the pulled chicken sandwich, Mac n cheese, and the green beans with bacon bits. Everything was really good! I tried almost every BBQ sauce and enjoyed the Smoky Mountain one the best. I do wish the Mac n cheese was more cheesy but it was still good! My boyfriend and his friend got the pulled pork and said they thought it was too salty, but ate all of it just the same. Definitely would recommend! read more

Positives: Great atmosphere. Comfortable and attractive dining room. I love the focus on the military and local law enforcement. I like all of the beverage choices. Cons: This is just average BBQ at best. I realize these places don't employ seasoned pit masters, but the BBQ is just a step above going to Aplebee's. The pulled pork is dry, the ribs are completely overcooked and mushy, the sausage is just plain bad. It's a shame that most Delawarians aren't accustomed to good BBQ and have rated this place so highly. read more

The service is hands down one of the best I have ever received! It's like they actually care. I have worked in fast food and I understand how difficult it is to really embrace the "mission". This team is awesome!! O and the food was great. read more

Visiting Dover and told my friend she HAD to try Mission BBQ - It did not disappoint!! We had the ribs, brisket, collard greens, Green beans and Mac n cheese -- all delicious. Manager came over to check on us and i mentioned It was my friends first time. She hooked us up with cookies and cream and coupons for free sandwiches. We will for sure be back!! read more

Mac-n-cheese and lemonade are a hit! Customer is usually pretty good too! Great place to grab quick and delicious BBQ food.

Good food, they never disappoint. One of the best places for getting a quick bite in Dover.

Wow what a great find! Stopped in tonight and food was great (black plate special ribeye was crazy good, green beans smoky and perfect) restaurant super clean and every staff member we encountered was helpful and super nice. Will definitely stop in again next time we are in the area! read more

We are from out of town and the service could not be more excellent! The brisket was to die for, and the cheesecake was delectable! If we ever are in Dover again, definitely will make this a destination! read more

Great food great service, great people,, staff is friendly,, i love it,, I'll make it my business to stop in every time im in the area

Love to be there at lunch. 12:00 is a great experience. Thanks to all the people who protect our great country!

Great food! They also catered our wedding, did a wonderful job. All of our guests raved about the food.

Went today for lunch with my friend. I ordered the salmon and my friend ordered the pulled pork sandwich. We both ordered baked beans as a side. My friend raved about her pulled pork and that is the only reason I gave them 2 stars. I took one bite of my salmon and realized it was raw inside. I told a lady who I presumed to be the manager. She in turn told me that it was not raw without even looking at it. She seemed annoyed and asked if I wanted something in it's place without offering to cook it more. I said sure, I'll take the chicken which was 3 dollars less than the salmon and she didn't offer to refund the difference and no apologies were given. The chicken was not great but at least it was cooked all the way. Don't think I'll be returning or recommending anyone there. read more

Mission BBQ - Raw salmon - Barbeque Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Too expensive have to wait in line you have to buy the food groups one at a time you cannot get a combined platter for one price that sucks. It's like you're going back in time waiting in line and your school cafeteria what's up with that. When you want to go to a restaurant you expected to be something unique and different this is not anyway different and the food isn't all that great! read more

This is a fabulous barbecue restaurant. The best brisket to be found in Dover and as good as most we found in San Antonio. The half chicken is huge and very tasty. Love all the sides we've tried especially the baked beans. Service is exceptional. Prices cannot be beat. Take out experience is perfectly safe nd comfortable. So glad to have a great affordable eatery as there are far too few good ones in this area. read more

The atmosphere is calm and cheerful. The staff is welcoming and very nice. They all seem to live working here. The food is amazing!! I had the turkey and it was perfect. The cheesy potatoes were soooo good. Def will coming back read more

Always a fan of Mission BBQ. Food is consistently delicious. Between the different black plate specials they offers to the wonderful staff they have it's a great lunch destination or dinner with the family. I believe the also offer a private room and catering as well if you were to host a meeting. My fav is the Espresso Rubbed Smoke Sirloin. Sooooooo delicious with a side of fries and the BayBQue sauce. Let's not for get the involvement with Military and Community. read more

Went here a couple times up until my last visit. The commitment and compassion they have for the military is great. Lots of cool decor throughout and friendly staff. They do a discount while in uniform which is also appreciated. The food is good, and the sauce offerings are amazing. I don't think there is one I didn't like. The manager brought around some blackberry (I think?) cobblers 'on the house' to our table. It was 3 coworkers and I. All four of us had food poisoning for the next 24 hours. I haven't been back since and I cannot return to another Mission BBQ probably ever. Too bad. read more

Mission BBQ catered our wedding and did an amazing job! The food was the best bbq I've ever had and the staff was super friendly from the tasting to serving. I would highly recommend them! read more

Friendly staff and good food, a place I'd go back to next time I'm in the area. Also a military friendly business. read more

the fish was dry, the help is very unhelpful. The sausage is grest. The food is fine. it is often very busy. They tend to be very rushed and that contributes to the overall sense that they are not very friendly. The portions are ok. The prices are fine. The ability to get two meats allows you to try more. There are a variey of vegetable and drink add-ons that are worthy of their reputation. I have been to other locations and think this is just one of the busier ones and on a quiter day I may enjoy myself more. The restrooms were clean. read more

Just had their Gumbo -- best I think I have ever had. Amazing, great Gumbo in Delaware?!!! This was just one of two sides on their combo special ( choose 3 or their 6 or 7 types BBQ) and choose 2 sides for $15. More food than 2 people can eat and world class barbeque. (I've tried the brisket, pulled pork, sausage and ribs). The owner chef seems to know what he is doing. My backround is I love food too much, come from NC bbq country and have qualified for World Chili Championship in Terlinga, Texas multiple times. read more

This place is one of my favorite BBQ places. Food and desserts are so good. The brisket is always nice and moist. The salmon is actually really good too. You'll definitely add to your waistline but it's sooo good. read more

Food is good, dining area is clean and has a bunch of military pictures and apparel on the walls. The sauce collection is really impressive too. read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket, turkey and spicey sausage - Barbeque Near Me - Dover, Delaware

The BBQ is pretty good. The sides are decent. Its consistent. I wish it was a sitdown restaurant though.

New to Dover and Yelp helped us find this gem. Quality food, good service and environment, friendly, efficient staff for a fair price! Filled my 6'2" athlete, a teen daughter and myself for under $30. We walked in hungry and left full and satisfied! read more

It is superb. I love the friendly staff and patriotic feel. The variety of bbq sauces is a real appeal, you can get the flavor that appeals to your mood and the level of spice. The sides are good. read more

Awesome!!! I loved the baked beans with the brisket in it OMG!!! delicious. Not only is the food outstanding but it's a great place that you can stand behind their mission statement. read more

Delicious pull pork sandwiches but I a bit on the high price $$$ besides that is pretty good I love the selection and the atmosphere

Excellent service and great food. A taste of home for me. My family and I love this place. Service is excellent and the staff works to ensure you have a great experience. I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Has a great atmosphere and vibe to it. 12 noon every day everyone there, employees and diners alike stand for the National anthem. Good BBQ. Not the best I've had but it's traditional (Brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, etc.). Six sauces on the table to choose from so if the meat is to dry then you can cover it in BAY-BQ (which has a hint of old bay) or my personal favorite, the Tupelo Honey Heat. Quick and pleasant service. So if you're looking for a quick bite that's an American staple but don't want that greasy fast food, then Mission BBQ is the spot for you. read more
