  I LOVE this place! I cannot stop going to it and I also can’t stop recommending it to all my friends and family. It’s one of those places that once you go to, you will never stop going to and you will never stop recommending! Best BBQ I have ever had and their sides are also top notch (the fries are so crispy and so so flavorful and the collard greens are spicy but not too spicy). The mac and cheese…divine! After dinner, the cobbler is a must have—blueberry, peach, apple, whichever variant—and is served with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream…best consumed right away. Sometimes there is live music and the people there are always super speedy and super polite. Price isn’t too bad either! If you’re deciding whether to go to this place or not and you’re reading this review to help you make your decision, stop reading and just go!

  First time ordering from here; from out of town. Damn good bbq. Damn good slaw and beans. Order was placed for pickup and door dash estimated it would be done about 7:50. I arrived at 8, stood around for about 20 minutes and finally got our food. Nobody was rude, but nobody really offered up what was taking so long. Then again idk if doordash even tells the restaurant estimated times. But anyways it was worth the wait. Will def stop by here again when we are back this way!

  First time here. It was absolutely amazing!! Our waitress was very sweet and helpful. The food was delicious!! First time having a hush puppy and I am forever a fan. Absolutely loved their in house smoked salsa and chips appetizer. Very dog friendly. They bring water dishes out and have a pet menu that is reasonable priced. So happy we stopped here!!! Definitely recommend.

  I really enjoyed eating at Drifters BBQ. The meat was tender and juicy, and the collard greens were full of flavor. The atmosphere on a Friday night was perfect—we sat outside, listened to live music, and had fun playing games like cornhole.

  Wife got 3 tiny slices of brisket, one all fat and the others too tough to cut or chew. Asked for a different cut of meat - got 2 microwaved slices back after a 1/2 hour wait. Typing this while sitting on the shitter fighting diarrhea from the ribs. Eat at your own risk
