We had a really good meal here before a concert at Pine Knob. I had their specialty Mac and cheese and it was so good. They have great ribs and pulled pork too. There's a wide selection of sauces. The mustard based one was my favorite. The atmosphere is fun and relaxing. Great service.

Our server was Belle, who was upbeat, friendly, super helpful, and efficient. She knew the menu and was able to answer all of our questions, as well as make recommendations that were spot on! The food is delicious, the cocktails expertly made and the atmosphere is relaxed. Everyone in our group of 3 HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Union Woodshop!

I had Union Woodshop BBQ on my list of restaurants to try, and when I was driving through Clarkston on my way home, I decided it was the perfect time to cross it off my list. Even though I wasn’t super hungry, I figured I could take home anything I couldn’t finish. I’m so glad I stopped! I ordered the Classic Tray, which came with a 1/3lb of brisket, pulled pork, and dark meat chicken (my preference over white meat). I also asked for a fatty cut of brisket, and they were able to accommodate that request. The tray came with slaw, pickles, and I opted for corn muffin over white bread. I also added the BBQ baked beans, and they were absolutely fantastic. To start, I went with the fried pickles appetizer with house dip, which was excellent. The deli-style dill pickles had just the right amou

Cool place to eat! Very good smoke meats, we especially love their Nashville hot wings. My daughter loves the mac and cheese. Their pizza is excellent as well. We've been here three times and it's now at our Friday dinner rotation.

The pulled pork is my favorite protein at the Union Woodshop. The pickles were surprisingly delicious. I usually don't care for them, but they added a lot of flavor to it. The corn bread and butter were amazing. The mac and cheese was just regular. The coleslaw was dry and didn't have a lot of flavor. I left most of it. I'll probably order different sides next time. The male server we had the last time I was here was way friendlier to us compared to the female one we had the first time I went. I like the place, but wish there was a brighter room. Even in broad daylight, all the rooms are kind of dim. I get it for the bar area. But for people who don't drink, wish we had a brighter spot.
