    Pulled chicken potato salad and amazing cornbread
    Saira K.

    Excellent service here. I felt very welcome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It smelled nicer inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had never been to a Mission BBQ before. The woman taking my order took the time to explain the menu. There was no wait. The food was hot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You could watch them preparing the food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The cornbread was really good. There's a selection of 6 sauces, some where spicy. The service was excellent.Chris walked around and kept asking everyone how they were enjoying their meal.

    Black plate special; baked potato with brisket. Comes with bacon bites, cheddar cheese and sour cream.   Side of cornbread.

    Cashier wasn't as friendly as one would expect with a customer service job. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was plenty of tables available to sit and eat[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean tables; clean bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was served in a reasonable time. Hot, delicious, full of flavor. The $14 black plate special is a little pricey for a baked potatoes with brisket but I ate half and had the rest for dinner. Not a bad lunch. I'd try this place again.

    Pulled pork NC style

    I lived in the south for a few years and got to try tons of great BBQ. This BBQ, even though it's fast food, is delicious and stacks up to others I've tasted. The service is on point and, as a veteran, I really enjoy seeing pictures on the walls of my brothers and sisters in arms. PRO TIPS: - Ask for the white sauce - Get the pulled pork NC style (this is when coleslaw is added on the sandwich. Not exclusive to NC, but that's how Mission calls it)

    Most disappointing brisket I've ever had. $15 for a half pound of brisket but they weight it with the container so you lose about half an ounce. The only side is a 2 inch square of dry cornbread. It smells like spam and tastes like old beef. Clearly the mission is to rip people off. Anyone who says this is good has never had good BBQ.

    On our way back from a trip to NC and up to MA, we decided to stop in Lancaster for some lunch and…read moreshopping. My husband and I looked for the best BBQ places in the area and landed on The BBQ Barn. A small and cute little barn sits in the corner of the plaza (on the right of Target). We ordered chicken and rib dinners with an extra pulled pork sandwich (we ordered way too much but needed to try it all!!). Dinner plates come with Cole slaw, a dinner roll, potatoes, and a whoopie pie. There is seating outside. We both agreed that the chicken may have been the best we have ever had. It was seasoned so well and perfectly cooked. The ribs came with bbq sauce on the side. There was a line, but service was quick and efficient. The grills are right in front and you can see the cooking happening! Inside the barn, I could see them rolling out fresh pretzels. They also had homemade root beer, which was very good! After we finished eating, I couldn't help but grab a vanilla ice cream cone to share with my dogs. They agree too, best soft serve ice cream we have ever had. Since getting home, we have already talked about how we need to plan a trip back to Lancaster to get more BBQ and explore the area a bit longer.

    Important! The address listed in Yelp is wrong. The BBQ Barn is located in Lancaster on the north…read moreside of Lincoln Highway but is not visible from the road. Drive to the Target just west of the American Music Theatre and head to the far east side of the Target, driving back around the side of the building and the restaurant will be on your right. Watch for small signs directing you to the BBQ Barn. Review: Very good pulled pork sandwiches with lots of meat for a very reasonable price. Full meal is a great deal that includes three small grilled red potatoes, a small coleslaw, roll, whoopie pie, and drink for $12.50-$14.00 depending on your meat and beverage choice. They sell "homemade" root beer that I tried and it was good and tasted like the original drove in A&W root beer except it lacked carbonation. We had a sandwich plus one full meal for about $20 and left a small tip. Note that this is a casual place with outdoor seating only, similar to a food truck. Thankfully the picnic table seating is mostly in the shade. I do recommend this place for a quick lunch or dinner and noticed local Amish eating there while we had lunch. today.

    We came out after a show at Sight and Sound theater which was awesome btw…read more A hungry bunch of ten people. Most of us ordered the make your own platter including the beef brisket. I personally ordered the beef brisket, the fried chicken with a side of Mac and cheese and seasonal vegetables. First the good, the fried chicken was fried perfectly with a nice crispy and so moist. The best part of the meal. The sides were good with a cheesy Mac and cheese. I was disappointed with the brisket. Although it had good flavor, it was super dry and those who ordered the brisket at our table agreed. We also ordered the whoopie pies which were disappointing as well. Would I come back...yes but would not order the brisket or dessert.

    First time At the Smokehouse BBQ & Brew…read more We had the corn bread and burnt tips for appetizers hubby had the pulled pork and chicken and I had the SCHNITZEL AND SPAETZLE for dinner. The Burnt ends appetizer was the best I have ever had. The meat was super tender and the white horseradish was so good on it we bought 12oz to take home. Honestly that could have been my dinner it was that good. The pulled pork was good it passed my husband's test since he's from NC and still looking for one like home. The spaetzle was amazing, and as good as my mother in law made. Well better. And she's German. Such a great find. It will be on our list every-time we come back to Lancaster.

    Stopped in to Mad Chef unexpectedly while traveling through Lancaster…read more My wife and I were hungry and tired from traveling through Pennsylvania. Thankfully Mad Chef was open later than most places so we got in before the kitchen closed. I enjoyed the low lighting with the brewery equipment shining in the background. Having the Phillies game on the tv's only added to our experience. Our drinks and food were excellent. I always like to enjoy a local craft beer, having it paired on site with fabulous eats is even better. I ordered Mr Dynamite Brown, their American brown ale which was fabulous. We ordered a small Pommes Frites (French fries) that were cooked in Canola oil. While light in color, these fries were cooked to perfection. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, salted just right. My wife ordered the pretzel and said it was her type, buttery, salty, and doughy. I ordered the Korean Pork Nachos, by far the best nachos I've ever had the pleasure to devour. I can't begin to describe how well the roasted corn poblano medley brought this plate together. Every bite had an explosion of flavor with the Korean glaze and Gochujang aioli. This dish blows Guy Fieri's trash can Brisket nachos out of the water. If ever in Lancaster don't pass up on the Mad Chef Craft Brewing gem.

    This was my 2nd time coming to Mad Chef!…read more The first time I came here was about 2 years ago (before doing yelp reviews). I was not very impressed. This time around I cannot complain! Their specials are all revolving around the Masters which was unique! We tried the Pimento, Fried Green Tomato, Chicken Sandwich (The Pimento Birdie). This was a delicious sandwich that just screams Georgia! We also tried the Madfather Chicken Sandwich! Pesto, Vodka Sauce, Mozzarella, this thing was outstanding! The fries are always a highlight here! We got the bucket (had a bigger group) and it came with 3 sauces. 1 tiny little knock on the fry bucket....the entire bucket was not filled with fries. The bottom of the fry bucket had about an inch or 2 of crinkled up paper..... All of the food was outstanding. The beer was good. Tons of space and seating. Very easy ordering process. Go up to the counter, tell them your table number, and your food arrives shortly! Prices are high here! Expect a larger number on your check if consuming both food and alcohol!
