I didn't realize this was more of a carry out resturant. Three tables inside and some outdoor seating. The food was pretty good 👍 they could use more non alcoholic drinks. Water lemonade, tea or coke. Had i done take out possibly 4.5⭐️. Restrooms are clean. Food came out quick and staff was nice. Order at Register and they bring the food out. I wasn't sure if I should take up my own trash or not. We took it to the bus cart but felt like we shouldn't🤷‍♂️ i may go back one day for take out.

If you’re anywhere near Easton and craving legit BBQ, Rude BBQ absolutely delivers. I went with the BBQ sampler platter, which is the move if it’s your first time. The brisket was tender with a solid smoke ring, the ribs had that perfect pull-off-the-bone bite, and the sausage brought the right amount of snap and seasoning. Every protein held its own — no filler, no shortcuts. The sides were just as strong. Creamy mac & cheese, classic potato salad, and crispy onion rings that didn’t feel greasy or heavy. Everything came out hot, fresh, and clearly made with intention. To top it off, I grabbed a spiked coffee, which somehow worked incredibly well with the BBQ — bold, smooth, and a fun twist you don’t see everywhere. Note: Not a lot of room to sit so don’t bring a big party (6plus) to d

Wow! Great staff, very friendly and accommodating. Parking is tricky but worth it (there are a few spots in the front but I suggest parking on the street and walking the few feet to get there). Everything was fresh and came out fast. The Brussel sprouts were superb, crispy within an inch of life to perfection. My husband loved the smash burger. The fries were everything you’d want them to be (heads up you may want the cheese on the side if you get the rude fries b/c it’s a lot). You can sit outside, it’s very spacious and comfortable or indoors where the seating/arrangement is very well thought out. I had an adult version of a grill cheese sandwich, hit! Now to the part that really SLAPPED..the drink, I don’t know in the icy concoction was going on but I’ll tell you what the orange slushie

Super friendly staff. Greeted us when we walked in, said goodbye on the way out. Food is really good. We had the Brisket melt and BBQ pork on gluten free bun. The meat was piled high and both sandwiches were excellent. Location is great with sidewalk seating. Very impressed!

First thing you will notice is how great the staff are! So patient and helpful. They offer 3 kinds of brisket: fatty, lean and 50/50. You can also pick dry ( no sauce) vs wet (with sauce). We like the brisket , ribs and the pulled pork the most. Flavorful and tender. Looking around the restaurant (offer both indoor and outdoor seating options) you will see trophies from BBQ competitions. Don't forget to try the beans and rude nachos. Another favorite is the onion rings. Talk about big CRUNCH factor!! The batter is seasoned and the onion itself is sweet. The crispyness of the outer layer+sweet soft inner of the onion makes a perfect combination. Just perfect.
