Amazing food! They always have delicious food and the staff is always so friendly! Love visiting with my husband when we drive through Dover.

Got 2 rib plates and the worst ribs I have ever had. They were hard and dry. Wished I could post pictures.

Great BBQ. THis place is the true definition of barbecue in the south if you’re going through Dover Tennessee I highly recommend you stop and eat. You’ll have to go outside and sit on a picnic table, but the food is wonderful. You used to be able to go inside but for some reason, they took the tables out, but the barbecue is worth a stop better than anything we have in Martin Tennessee.

Best pulled pork sandwiches. 😋 We should have gotten more. Cash or check only. Open only Fri. Sat. Sun. Call ahead for hours cause they might sell out early
