★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Susan (Abhaille) · Mar 2026

After staying across the street for several days, we decided to walk over for breakfast. It’s a very charming looking, kind of rustic looking place. We ordered coffee. Our server was a sweet young lady, but seemed surprised that we asked for cream. She pointed at a paper container on the table which had jelly in it. We acknowledged the jelly and repeated that we would like some cream. The menu had some interesting options and I chose the Gracious biscuits and gravy with more sage sausage and green onions and a scrambled egg. I should have known when I saw the scrambled egg that I was in for a disappointing experience. It was truly the flattest scrambled egg I have ever seen. There is more fluff on a clean dustmop. Again our server seemed surprised that we asked for butter for the famou

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Sara Beth Downing · Nov 2025

Server was super sweet but lacked knowledge on GF items. She frequently had to ask someone else which didn’t make me feel great since I have an allergy. The bbq was mediocre but to be fair I am used to great Kansas City BBQ. The pulled pork and brisket came out cold. The green beans had no seasoning and the potato salad had the oddest flavor. My husband got the mac and cheese and he said it was great. They also were not serving deviled eggs that day. The sauces were all great! It was mediocre food but the atmosphere was great and so was the location.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 George Rodgers · Oct 2025

Was extremely disappointed. I got take out on a afriday about 8:30pm. Service was slow(supposedly the sausage). Restaurant interior was nothing special. The pulled pork had way too much fat. Apparently, fat was never trimmed out. Sausage had jalapeño pepper with cheddar cheese, but cheese was never listed. Big problem since I had dairy issues. Brisket was OK, but nothing special. Although prices were reasonable($20), I focus on a good meal, and Gracious Pig would fall a distant 2nd to McDonalds. Definitely not worth stopping for diner.

Staff always friendly, food always great. You won’t leave hungry. Smoked cauliflower app and corn pudding are must haves. Big Biscuit Breakfast available also.

★★★★★ 5.0 Carol Grubbs · Feb 2026

Was the off season so it wasn't crowded, the barbecued chicken was delicious, not dry and overcooked like some places, my husband has a chicken sandwich also not overcooked. We had an appetizer of chili cheese fries and they were sooo good..They have a selection of barbecue sauces, my favorite was the cheerwine barbecue sauce . The restaurant had an old time general store , barbecue shack vibe with 70s and 80s country and rock.I imagine its very crowded in season. Also had a porch with outdoor seating
