I happened to patronize The Grainery on a day that they had made chicken and dumplings! I felt like I had won the gastronomical lottery! Not only was the food delicious, but also a massive serving. Along with the dumplings came some nicely seasoned green beans. Unfortunately they were out of cornbread, so I had to settle for store-bought bread. At least they had real butter for my bread. For dessert, I greatly enjoyed an apple cake creation. There were nicely sized chunks of flavorful apples embedded within the cake. The double shot espresso that I had with my dessert was a very generous pour. I'm impressed that they now offer customer loyalty punch cards for their caffeinated concoctions. Service was adequate, but I suspect that towards the end of the lunch period, the waitresses shift to other duties that don't involve customers. I noticed they now sell prepackaged foodstuffs for customers to take home. I may need to bring a food cooler with me next time. I do hope that they get their flying insect problem fixed. The front door to the restaurant doesn't close completely. This is a real gem of an eatery, and I plan on returning as often as possible.

I ordered the ribs and brisket and absolutely loved it! The ribs were cooked perfectly. The brisket was equally awesome. Their portions are generous for a good price. The interior is decorated like most bbq places. You can smell the cooking going on in the back. Their sides as well are delicious. The mac and cheese was my favorite. I only get to visit this area once a year and I'm totally looking forward to next year. No pictures because we chowed it all down before we thought of it. Trust me, I hope you can smell this place in my review.

I only ordered slush drinks at this spot but can't imagine it's different than any other sonic. The staff was friendly. There is a public restroom on the right side. Ample parking if needed.

Now for the downside, I had ribs and smoked sausage with potato salad and coleslaw. The menu states they are both homemade. It's a mustard potato salad and I am pretty sure I have had both from Sam's wholesale. Both were plain and lacked seasoning. The ribs appeared to be a couple of weeks old and reheated in the microwave. The onion rings that my wife had were huge and crunchy but had no flavor in the batter or salt added after frying. The smoked sausage looked like what I cooked for the 4th. Not smoked just heated and sliced. If not for the cheese dip this would have been a one. Oh staff provided super service no issues there. They cannot control the quality of the food. The table we were sitting at looked homemade and there were some crevices around some knot holes that were full of crumbs! Pretty nasty. I will go back for some cheese dip......to go!!

We ordered the green tomatoes to share and they were yummy. Probably the best I ever had. My friends were both satisfied with their meal, one ordered a salad, and the other one had a chicken sandwich. Unfortunately, for me, I ordered a hamburger with fried okra. The okra was pretty good, however the hamburger was absolutely inedible. Dry and flavorless! I took one bite and couldn't believe how bad it was! Worst of all, when I complained the girl said "Oh, sorry about that." and walked away. I didn't want to make a scene, since I was with new friends. Needless to say, I will not be going back. There are other options in Batesville.

What great customer service. I agree with other reviews that this is the best bbq. I also agree that you can smell the smoke before you see the restaurant. I had the rib plate and it was fantastic. The beans were great too. The surprise was the cold slaw. I was skeptical about apple in slaw but it was delicious. Unfortunately I don't get to this part often so I am not sure I will ever be back but I sure hope to. Great family and great food!!!
