Customer Reviews
Locals' Favorite BBQ—A Must-Stop Spot! The Pit Stop BBQ is hands-down a local favorite, and for good reason! The BBQ pork sandwich was smoky, tender, and full of flavor. The baked beans were rich and hearty, and the pork nachos are an absolute must-try—stacked high and perfectly balanced. What really makes this place stand out is the owner, Josh—a great guy who puts real heart into every plate. Friendly, welcoming, and passionate about BBQ done right. If you're just passing through, don’t miss the chance to partake in some of the best BBQ you’ll find anywhere. You’ll be glad you stopped!
The pulled pork sandwich, potato salad, pork nachos and the banana pudding are our favorites! The food is delicious and the service is great! Check them out when you’re in my hometown- DeFuniak Springs, Florida 😊📸
We stopped by after seeing the great reviews.. we were not impressed… My “pulled” Chicken was cubed chicken & was very wet and has a unique texture. The Mac and cheese was not great either. I will say the baked beans were really good though. The gentleman at the counter was super nice and it’s a cute little spot though. Service was quick. But with tip it was almost $20.
Quaint little restaurant in the historic downtown area. Food is fresh; delicious and hot of the smoker. Southern sides are delicious with my favorite being the macaroni and cheese and the potato salad. Pulled pork nachos are always hit with the grands. Josh and staff are very friendly and accommodating. In house made lemonade is delicious and refreshing.
Amazing! Randomly stopped in to pick up lunch. Without a doubt the best smoked chicken we’ve ever eaten. We also had the pork and ribs which were also delicious. Highly recommend. Staff and owner were super nice and helpful
