    Good Food, Below Average Service

    Good BBQ

    We went here after a Huntingdon College football game. The BBQ and atmosphere were good. The only negative was the wait staff was very busy due to the crowd, but even then they still got the job done.

    Wonderful Experience

    We absolutely loved the sausage appetizer, it was delicious. The barbecue itself was acceptable but not great. Banana pudding is a must-have! Service was very good. Overall would recommend.
