The only place in town that I can get a fire loaded baked potato. When I cant figure out what I want to eat they are always there for me. They have never gotten my order wrong. read more

Overall a pretty good spot. Nice dining area indoors and outdoors. The service was pretty good. The food was tasty for the price but nothing crazy. Decent pulled pork and okay brisket. Beans were good but the greens were Meh and the cornbread was dry. Overall not bad for a quick bite, but nothing special. read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Two Two-Meat Combo with pulled pork and brisket. Beans and collared greens on the side - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

My visit to Whole Hog Cafe in Medford was just okay. The restaurant was clean, and the staff was friendly, but the food was a bit disappointing. The brisket and ribs were served cold, which took away from the overall barbecue experience. The chicken strips were also underwhelming and reminded my daughter of a McDonald's chicken nugget than a restaurant barbecue item. The sides were decent, and the variety of sauces was a nice touch, but the main meats simply didn't meet expectations. It wasn't a terrible meal, but it wasn't memorable enough that I'd be in a rush to return. read more

Is there really any negative things one can say when it comes to slow cooked smoked meats? If you're looking for a good BBQ Whole Hog Cafe has a few locations to satisfy Cherry Hill and Medford. The staff behind the counter are always welcoming and ready to get your order in to the kitchen. Plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor to relax and enjoy the juicy flavorful bbq they create. The loaded fries are a meal in themselves. From the variety of sauces to the many sides to accompany your BBQ Whole Hog is at the top of our BBQ list. read more

Ordered a 2 meat platter, w/Mac & cheese, coleslaw, collards via delivery service. The good-Pulled Pork was delicious; Chicken was good as well. The bad-The sides. Mac & cheese tasted like Kraft that was off, Coleslaw, eh, not well flavored, the collards were bland, had a weird taste as well. Overall, I won't order again. I've eaten too much good BBQ around the country to give them a pass. read more

Quality has gone way down hill while prices keep on rising. Much better options on Main Street and will not be back.

We got the pulled chicken sandwiches , found a piece of plastic in one of them . Yuck

I just love this place. Multiple sauces to choose from. Delicious brisket. Great, large chicken wings. Fast Service. Can't ask for more read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Chicken Wings - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

Ordered the brisket burnt end yesterday, MAJOR disappointment. 3/4 inch pieces, only 1 side burnt and All fat. We had a few pieces and in garbage it went. By far the worst I ever eaten. Pulled pork was fine, so was 1/4 chicken. read more

Bought a quarter pound of "burnt ends" today. It was 90 percent FAT. Horrible and disgusting. $8 worth of grossness. I understand the "burnt ends" can have some fat on them but this was a complete rip off. Buyer beware. Stuff was useless to resolve. read more

This was a comically bad dining experience. Walked in about an hour before close. The attendant at the counter didn't say hi, didn't welcome us in, just wanted to wash off the barbecue sauce containers, clearly eager to shut down the place; she opened with "we are out of pork, we are out of chicken, we are out of turkey"... we interrupted to ask what they did in fact have available and were told that they had the sausage and chopped brisket. Went with a couple of brisket sandwiches. The attendant had to ask whether we could get slaw added to the sandwiches, even though it states clearly on the menu that you can have that as a free add. Throughout the experience she continued to do nothing but wash off the containers. She clearly wanted us out of there as quickly as possible. Dropped about 30 bucks for the two sandwiches. As for the food itself, mediocre. My sandwich was about 25% fat and solid, charred, inedible chunks. The only reason I'm not giving it one star is because the barbecue sauce itself (the mustard bbq) was really tasty and my guess is that we just got the dregs of the brisket. The parts that were edible were tasty and the slaw was good. read more

Atmosphere was nice and clean 4 stars Service was awkward it wasn't really friendly not rude but more so made you feel like you were bothering them when you asked for a plate or straw. 3 stars Food was Fake potatoes they just add water to flakes Coleslaw had a funky taste Mac and cheese tasted like it was frozen and they microwaved it Cornbread not made in house they just buy those mini loaves from Costco The brisket was sooooo thin and you weren't able to enjoy eating it as it was sliced as thin as deli meat. The pulled pork was just ok better than the dried out brisket. Sausages were average again bought and heated up they aren't making them. Fries are bought frozen as well as the chicken tenders but to honest even though they have the same overly mixed texture like a McDonald's nugget instead of actual real chicken they were the best tasting part of the meal. That and the sauces. If we ever came back I would get tenders and the sauces. Skip the rest I don't come out to eat at places who aren't cooking and just reheating premade food, I can do that at home for a lot cheaper. Was such a disappointment seeing how many shortcuts they take. It was insulting paying for food at a "restaurant" paying restaurant pricing for fast food reheated food. read more

The Medford location had great service, clean and comfortable environment. Nice vibes. But the food is meh. More Than Q, Dickey's BBQ, Mission BBQ... all significantly better in every way. The food here is fine if you're starving. The greens, the mac and the beans are actually awful. I had to combine the mac with the sausage and load the beans with sauce to get through half of the portions. There was no fixing the greens. Our meats were served lukewarm. The best part of the meal was the side of fries. The original sauce is actually very good and if the meat was hot it would've been decent. The other sauces are just ok, but the spicy ones have no heat... bummer. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was actually decent. Again, this would have been much better had it been hot. In all, a three meat combo was enough for my husband and I to share and we didn't leave hungry. Wouldn't go back, though. read more

Holy cow!! The salads are the best you can get. Huge and fresh. They are actual meal size salads. The BBQ is incomparable unless you actually go to TN NC or KY and then it won't compare it's so good. 10/10 Ribs are right. Fall off the bone and melt in your mouth! Baked potatoes are like footballs. So worth the money. read more

I've eaten here a few times as the brewery next door is a favorite of my in-law's. It's very convenient that you can order food from Whole Hog and bring it right next door to the brewery. This time around my husband and I shared a brisket sandwich and a side of the seasonal corn. The brisket was as good as usual and I always appreciate that they have a spicy bbq sauce option as I much prefer that to sweet bbq, but the star of the show this time was the corn. It had a bit of a kick and was very creamy. I could have honestly just had a side of corn to myself and called that good for dinner! I don't know if they will have it next time we are in town visiting, but I am definitely looking forward to it! read more

You are really relying on sauce when your eating the food, which unfortunately means it's a tad bland. Bunch of kind young ladies working around the shop. Decor looks very millennial inspired. Got the platter of 3 ribs, brisket, and jalapeño cheddar sausage. For $23 it filled up but left a lot to be desired. By the time I finished eating the Mac and cheese and potato salad the brisket was cold and rubbery. Corn bread was dry. Have had better experiences in the past so will try them again in the future. read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Whole Hog Platter - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

The great American BBQ was nowhere to be found tonight as we visited Whole Hogg Cafe. I had high expectations for a tender, juicy bite of perfectly sauced brisket, but it was not to be. I was a little disappointed at the brisket. Our group of nine was comfortably seated at the communal picnic tables in the heated outdoor space. I ordered what might be considered the standard fare in most BBQ joints, a Two Meat Combo with cole slaw, a green side salad and cornbread. My brisket was not as juicy as it may have been earlier in the day, so I slathered on their spicy sauce which was delicious. The meat had a nice flavor despite being slightly dry to the chew. My pulled chicken was tender, juicy and very delicious. We ordered at the counter and carried out to the picnic tables. Several in our party purchased beer from the neighboring brewery establishment, but I did not. read more

Hubby and I went for date night - food was delicious! We sat outside and enjoyed the different bbq sauces! Would go again!

Food was just okay greens were watery/no flavor, Mac and cheese w burnt ends no flavor again the ends were nowhere to be found some slivers of fat the jalapeño sausage was very good. Service was quick read more

Ohkay so....the meats are not bad but the sides have no flavor except for the beans!!! You need to change the recipes to contain spices and just stop serving collards, cooking them is not for everyone!! And dammit burn your burnt ends for God sakes!! read more

Very disappointing. I stopped in with my wife and we got the smoked turkey and brisket sandwiches and cheesy corn. The turkey was pretty good but the brisket as many others have said he was so dry I could barely choke it down. There are reviews here going back over a year ago saying the same thing so clearly there has been no attempt to improve which says a lot. The flavor is fine and the #3 spicy sauce was excellent but I don't know how they can serve brisket that dry. I also don't know how a side of corn with that much cheese could have so little flavor. read more

The service was super quick. The combo platter is the way to go. I recommend grabbing to go and taking it to one of the local breweries.

gave this place one last try since they moved to the new location. You can tell something has changed with the quality of the food and the extremely small portion sizes. I got 2 small extremely dry slices of brisket, and sausage that tasted a week old. I asked for sauce , both containers were almost barely filled. I noticed every time I go in now it's all a very very young staff, even back preparing the food in the kitchen. I always remember this place being great and in recent time it has not been. Will be going to mission from now on. read more

We are long time customers and have ordered from here as a special treat.Food was consistently good with generous sizes and atmosphere pleasant. Today 4/2 we ordered a 2 meat platter with brisket and pulled pork, sides of coleslaw , collards and baked beans. We had accumulated a $10 reward which was used. I am glad we did as the food was subpar.An extremely small portion of pulled pork that was stuck together (size of a golfball) was charred and greasy, 2 pieces of brisket that was dry and difficult to chew even with BBQ sauce. The coleslaw had definitely been around awhile as it was so waterlogged it was translucent and limp, not edible. Food container with all 3 sides and a roll was only part full. We would have definitely gone back if this was not takeout and it was too far to go back again. If we do try again we will look at the food before leaving. What a disappointment! Hopefully things will get better.If not we will reluctantly be looking for somewear else . read more

I was very excited to try this place out, but sadly it wasn't that good.. :-( their brisket was dry, and Lemon pepper wings were extremely salty I couldn't eat more than one. Coleslaw and green beans were salty too. However, I give 3 stars because staffs were friendly and the place was clean and plenty of seats and tables! read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Bbq platter Ribs Plate Mac & Cheese Potato Salad - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

Whole Hog is a fast casual restaurant where you order at the counter and your food is brought to your table. There are lots of ways to customize your meal with your choice of meats, including: ribs, brisket, and pulled pork/chicken, sausage and sides, which include coleslaw, baked beans, cheesy corn, collard greens, french fries, potato salad and mac and cheese. They also have wings, sandwiches, salads and more. There are regular and high top tables and a couple of tvs tuned to sports. It's a smaller space that's been fairly calm when we've visited. I suspect they do a lot of takeout but we always eat in. There's a microbrewery next door. You can order food here to bring over to the brewery. Each table has a caddy of 6 squeeze bottles of various flavors of bbq sauce to enhance your bbqd meats. It's fun to sample them. The food and the portions are good and the food is served quickly. Everything has been fresh and at appropriate temperature. Overall, it's a great place to get a tasty bbq meal with little wait and we enjoy and recommend it. read more

This was my 2nd experience at Whole Hog. I've lived in Medford for most of my life. For a while Whole Hog was located on route 70 near Rita's. Not too long ago they moved into the Kirby's Feed Mill right on mainstreet. They have a nice parking lot that is shared with a few other businesses. I stopped by around 12:30 pm on a Saturday with my friend and his son. I see burnt ends on cooking shows (they always look so good) but I've never tried them. I was able to try burnt ends from another restaurant a few weeks ago and they were so bad I was hesitant about ordering them from Whole Hog but I'm so glad I did. I didn't want a huge meal. The portion of macaroni and cheese topped with burnt ends pictured in my review was around $9. Very generous portion size for the price. The Mac and cheese was good (not great) and cheesy. It came out within a couple minutes of ordering. The burnt ends had a great bark, tons of flavor, and were extremely tender. When I see them served on BBQ and cooking shows I imagine this is how they taste. From my understanding, burnt ends at whole hog do sell out. The first time I did try to order them they were out for the day. My friend ordered a brisket sandwich and chicken tenders tossed in wing sauce for him and his son. He was pleased with the quality of the food as well as the price. There's a brewery located right next to Whole Hog so you can order your food and bring it next door to eat while enjoying a beer or two. read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Mac & Cheese - Burnt Ends - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

Great spot with great BBQ. Our group had a pulled pork sandwich, southwest salad with chicken, chicken fingers and wings. Everything was awesome. The pulled pork was great but the highlight, which is crazy to me, might have been the chicken fingers. They were homemade, juicy, and perfect. Love the table selection of different bbq sauces too. The Mac and cheese was great too and it was adult and kid approved. read more

Honestly the food is hit or miss.... I've ate there 3 times ... 1st time was fantastic.... 2nd time was a total disappointment and the 3rd was pretty good!! Over all I think it's worth a shot! Prices are pretty good! Cool little outdoor area to eat... friendly staff as far as I've experienced read more

We had 10 wings and regular fries to go with our Kings Road beers. For smoked wings, with a dry rub, they were pretty damn good. Meaty, tender, and just enough spice to make us order another round of beers. Btw, they give you a ton of good hot fries too. We will be back to try their brisket and other things too. read more

Whole Hog is a big hit at my work. Every Friday we order lunch and this place is on our rotation since it's so close. I got to try it for the first time last week after hearing my coworkers RAVE about it. I had never had anything from here before and am semi picky- so I decided to do a kids meal because it seemed like a decent portion to try out something. Also was a great price and a good sized meal! I got the pulled pork with a side of mac and cheese and sauce #5 (I believe a sweet BBQ type of sauce?) The picture below shows the portion size. It says it's 3 ounces of meat, I'm assuming maybe half of a normal portion? Either way- delicious!! The sauce was great also and I love that it comes on the side. The mac and cheese was good as well. Tastes like your average fast food mac and cheese- no complaints. I'm glad I finally tried this place and will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu! read more

Whole Hog Cafe - Kids meal- Pulled Pork, Mac & Cheese, #5 sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Medford, New Jersey

Food was ok but the girl at the togo counter was not nice at all, actually rude. I know it was busy and we had compassion for that, however when we went back in because they didnt give us sauces, with our receipt she gave me a really hard time and made me feel like an ahole. Also she didnt give us the coleslaw we paid extra for but I didnt want to deal with her so we chalked that up as a loss. No reason to treat kind patient customers rudely. Oh but she was nice to a guy behind us because she knew him. read more

We came to town to pick up our rescue pup from his foster mom. Having driven from CT, we reached the Whole Hog Cafe just before opening time (11:30 am). The restaurant is currently operating as a carry out only right now. There is also no seating offered outside, so we opted to eat in the car. It's not the easiest thing to eat in a car, but we managed. My husband ordered the pulled pork, I ordered the brisket & cornbread with two sides (potato salad & coleslaw) and our son had the pork & baked beans. My husband added the Carolina style sauce as well as their standard bbq sauce to his order. He was happy he did, because the meat was slightly dry. My brisket was well cooked with enough seasoning and moist enough that I didn't need any sauce. The cornbread was great. It has a slight sweetness to it and it was not dry or crumbly. The potato salad was great, I couldn't keep my son away from it. If we lived in the area I would definitely visit this restaurant again. The people were friendly the establishment was clean. The staff wore masks and enforced the wearing of masks. It would be great if they could add outdoor seating, especially for out-of-towners like us. read more

First off the portion size is smaller than cherry hill location. The brisket is full of fat and dry the food was horrible don't waste your time! read more

My first visit here and I have to give it low grades. I can only fairly review the take-out pulled pork sandwich. By the time I ate it, about 10 minutes after pickup, it was flat out cold. They gave me one small plastic container of sauce, which was not enough. So it was cold and dry, just meat on a bun, nothing else (even though their site said it came with slaw on the sandwich). I asked for "hot" BBQ sauce and what I got was not spicy at all. If you eat in, you may get a hotter sandwich with more sauce, but I would not recommend taking it to go. read more

I used to come here often for barbecue, I decided to give it a try this afternoon. The brisket sandwich was mummified, I know you can do better than this! I gave three stars because the cornbread and baked beans were good. I came for the brisket!!! SMH read more

Whole Hog Cafe has always been on my radar, as they have a location in my town of Medford. Having grown up in Texas, I'm a snob when it comes to BBQ. My only regret about going into Whole Hog is that I haven't gone in sooner. I've been in many times, but wanted to take the time to write a review now that they're in their new space at the Feed Mill. The new space is beautiful, spacious, and has a wonderful artisan/industrial feel to it. The food is as good as always, which is VERY good. I have tried several BBQ chains and solo restaurants in the area, and Whole Hog is by far a delicious cut above the rest. read more
