Customer Reviews
Me & The Family went to the Foodee Festival expecting wonderful food & Barkleys BBQ was extremely Dissapointed. The greens were sour, The six Cheese Mac & Cheese was Bland. My Ribs were Burnt & not fully cooked. I was extremely unhappy due to the amount of Money that i paid to go home & not get to eat my food. Also, i had never seen Bricket served Shredded like that. I believe a Rebecca promised me that i would like it but it was extremely Dissapointed . I waited close to 50 minutes for this Combo platter that turned out to not be so good and i ended it up dumping it.
Barclay’s Barbecue advertises itself as having the “best soul food in Philly,” but unfortunately, my experience did not live up to that claim. I visited Barclay’s Barbecue at the Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival in Tampa on Saturday, February 14. The line was long, largely because the food smelled good and the signage was eye-catching. However, the wait and the final product were disappointing. As a VIP ticket holder, I was entitled to a free barbecue plate from participating vendors. Every other vendor honored this without issue, but Barclay’s stated that the VIP ticket only covered $15 toward a plate, requiring additional payment. After waiting nearly an hour in line, this was unexpected and frustrating. The food itself did not justify the extra cost. The barbecued meat was overly salty,
I had the Brisket on a roll with beans and greens on the side. That was a great meal!!! The Brisket was full of flavor and a plus was the young lady who took my order. She was easy to deal with and so pleasant!!! A+++ Barkleys BBQ. I cannot wait to have your food again!!!!
Tried Barkleys Bbq today at the outlets and unfortunately I’m disappointed. I paid $50 for two platters and the portions are very small. I tried to order sauce on the side and you can’t. I ordered 1/2 slab of ribs with a side of greens and brisket. I barely got any brisket although it is seasoned well you get very little. Either you get ribs with sauce or without sauce smh. The greens are advertised as turkey smoked greens and I had literally a small scoop with no turkey. They taste like Glory greens and the yams with apples had no apples and they look and taste like Bruce’s yams. For what I paid I could’ve went to Mission Bbq and got more bang for my buck and a more flavorful meal. Tried to support but very disappointed.
Gloucester Premium Outlet Barkley’s BBQ Food Truck review. This is my 3rd time visiting this Barkley’s. 1st time they ran out of ribs. That’s a good and bad thing. Made me want to try them out. So when I was in heading back from AC I said let me stop and get some ribs. Order 1/2 slab for $22 including tax. There were 6 bones. One which was really small. They were really good, gave 1/2 to my wife and she enjoyed them as well. I give that visit 4 stars. This time on 8/31/23 I had off work and drove about 25 minutes to get some ribs and do some shopping. This time no bueno. They were not good this time. The were smoked but seemed undercooked. No sear or char on the ribs. They were also very short and fat, and fatty. Very disappointed. I give the food on this visit 2 stars.
