Smithfield's Chicken 'N Bar-B-Q

We love coming to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q, always clean, always consistent, friendly staff and exceptional barbecue and their chicken is good as well.

Wow... Talk about wowing a customer, we were both blown away! We stopped in after we walked out of another restaurant we looked at, nothing wrong with it except overpriced. We had remembered eating at a Smithfield's probably 10-12 years ago when we were traveling and there happened to be a location nearby. This time we ordered a BBQ plate and chicken tender. A drink was surprisingly Free and a senior discount was applied when paying... All without us having to ask for any discounts... 2 nice surprises. The food was delivered to our table when it was ready, this was another surprise... what fast food place does this? The food was great, quick, good value and friendly service. When we were about done eating one of the workers came by and gave us a to go box with 2 more chicken tenders in it.

Late lunch of BBQ sandwich with fries and good ole sweet tea. Received slaw on the sandwich but would have liked a little more for the amount of BBQ on the sandwich. My friend got the tenders snack pack. The tenders were larger portions which was a pleasant surprise. Enough for one to go home in a box for later. Thier large cups are verifiable large. Order and pay at counter and they actually deliver to your table for dining inside.

First time at the new location. The chicken was tender, Fry’s were a bit undercooked, potato salad was good it’s not loaded with vinegar like most other NC restaurants. Brunswick stew okay. Service was excellent. Dominic was extremely attentive to our table. Having someone wait on you is unusual for a “fast food restaurant” but always the case here. Portions are smaller than they were at the old location. Which is fine because most people eat way more than they need to feel full. We “eat to live not live to eat” our nation would be healthier if everyone did that.

Anytime there’s a SCNB I just have to stop and grab a NC style BBQ sandwich! I choose no slaw on the sandwich and a side of hush puppies and sweet tea!!! Never disappointed when I stop in. This location always makes me fat and happy !
