Great service, good price and huge portions. We were pulling our camper and there was plenty of space to park.

Sat at the bar. Bartender was really nice and attentive, but don't expect an old fashioned. Place is clean. I ordered the "16 oz" NY Strip, baked potato and black eyed peas. The steak was no where near 16 oz. You can get the same steak at Waffle House... seriously. It tasted a bit off, I only ate about a quarter of it. Super greasy. The baked potato was not fully cooked and chunky hard. BUT... the black eyed peas were great after I added salt, pepper, and vinegar to them. Maybe my expectations were too high on the food... maybe other items in the menu are better. This place gets an "eh" read more

I have never had any meal or food item that was not good! The service is always good. Tea is good. Most all the food is priced reasonably. There are a few things that are out of my range. Never had an employee or waitress that was not the utmost friendly and helpful. read more

First of all I got there and there's a hostess stand and no hostess, but a chalk board inviting me to the bar area. There was no one in the bar area. A walked the entire restaurant and had to go in the back to find someone. Told to sit in the bar area. I Ordered a steak medium, mash potatoes, the Brussels sprouts (the family fav) and some grilled shrimp. The steak (ribeye) wasn't just an awful cut of meat, super fatty and waaaay over cooked. It was oily/greasy too. I mean this thing must have been cooked in the left over breakfast grease or something. The mash was served cold... and it was tasteless. The Brussels were an attempt at boiled cabbage or something like it. They were gross to say the least. And to top all that off, the grilled shrimp had some legs and shells on them but were served on the plate ready to eat. This was the worst plate of food I have had in a very very long time. And I'm a truck driver and practically eat out of dumpsters. At this point I'm seriously just hoping I don't get food poison. And I'm not joking, not even for a second. DO YOURSELF A FAVORE AND PASS THIS PLACE BY. IF WERE LUCKY THEY WILL GO OUT OF BUSINESS. I MEAN WAFFLE HOUSE WOULD BE AN IMPROVEMENT TO THE DISGUSTING FOOD SERVED HERE. And just a note. The price for my ribeye, mash, Brussels and shrimp was a wapping $50 dollars! The employees kids were running all over and to the owner if you're reading this... SHOVE THAT FKNIN DOORBELL RIGHT UP YOUR ASS! Have a nice day! read more

Barney's Roadhouse - Garbage... pure garbage!!! - Southern Near Me - Gadsden, Alabama

Very slow service. Very good people and incredible food. As long as you're not in a hurry, stop by and eat here.

Discovered Barney's while driving from the Shrine to Chattanooga and looking for a late lunch. Great stop - friendly service, delicious food. We enjoyed the fried pickles, daily special - pork chop, chicken Alfredo, Stromboli steak sandwich, patty melt, and Avocado Bacon Burger. The standouts were the Avocado Bacon Burger and Stromboli Steak sandwich. The burger was double patty with a good mix of flavors. The Stromboli had this onion mushroom gravy that was pure comfort food with a thick hamburger steak and buttered toasted bun. Both burger and sandwich were huge portions. The fries were delicious. We're happy we stopped and would come back if we're ever in the area again. read more

This place is hard to review. If you wanted to come here after church on Sunday you would probably not be out of place. Atmosphere: would be better if not for the fact that the music is way too loud, could not even place my order with the bar keep, and way too Christian. Three tvs. One playing that garbage music. Two playing a Billy graham show... perfect for church people. I intended to stay longer and would have done so, spending more money, if not for the horrible music. I even had headphones on, as did other patrons, and couldn't stay longer due to this. Food. I ordered fried green tomatoes. Tomatoes were undercooked, breading was decent, just barely over breaded. Seasoning was average if not slightly below average. I also ordered blackened catfish with shrimp. Basically it was a few pieces of jumbo shrimp and a few pieces of catfish fillet, you know, the prices most restaurants throw away, drowned in cheese and grease. Seasoning was very absent. Unless you consider cheese to be seasoning. Fries were inconsistently cooked, read various levels of overcooked, and over salted. Service. Barkeep was good. I'm not a fan of bars that require the bar keep to also be a waitress, but in this case the place is so slow that most of the staff wasn't near busy anyway. Despite that, she was attentive, and efficient. Housekeeping. This alone is enough to make me reticent to come back. The bar was built poorly, with deep grooves that aren't cleaned on a regular basis. If I were employed here I'd refuse to work the bar for this reason alone. If you do choose to eat here I would strongly recommend a table. Though admittedly, I didn't inspect a single one on my way out. Overall. If this were a church I would give it three stars. Two deducted for the lack of hygiene and seasoning. For a bar, I think giving it one star is being generous. That might be different if I had gone to the restaurant side of the house. But it was a poor enough experience that I'll refrain from returning. I'll just have fast food next time and save myself about $60. Alcohol selection. Beer. Average selection. Liquor. Slightly below average selection. Scotch. Well below average selection. read more

More of a family joint than a dive bar like you'd expect from a roadhouse off the high way. Food was good. Great waitress. Inside is beautiful and clean. We tried the fried pickles, pimento cheese balls (These were a great surprise), and shrimp appetizers. All very good. I had the Greek salad with shrimp and my husband had a burger. Not sure why this place had 3.5 star rating. It's probably your best option in this area without having to drive 15+ minutes into Gadsden. read more

We have eaten at Barney's at several times and were very happy with our meal and the service, but tonight, not so much. The lady that sits at the hostess stand has never been the friendliest, and tonight, she really didn't seem to care if we came, or not. She told us, rather gruffly, that they were full and we would have to at the bar, but - as she was saying it - a party of 6 was leaving. Seems to me they were probably sitting at a table. We went to the marina, instead... read more

I had their wings and a side salad which tasted delicious. I would definitely go back the service was ok and the restrooms were very clean read more

Great meal with ample portions. Can't wait to pass through again to have a wonderful meal. My husband and I each had the special, country fried steak. We were stuffed when we left. read more

Amazing Fried green tomatoes, and the best mozzarella sticks I think I've ever had. People complain that they are playing Christian radio, but it's the south, so they need to get over themselves. 5/5 read more

We were sat immediately seeing as on a Saturday night there were only 4 tables being used and three people at the bar. Now, being next to a truckstop and knowing that truckers spend enough time eating fast food they'd love a restaurant nearby, you'd expect it to be busy and crawling other people. Nope. It was so empty we echoed. The restaurant itself is very plain, no personality, the cable for their tvs wasn't working so don't expect games playing while you are there either. We were sat at a table that no longer had a server, so the girl behind the bar got our drink order and supposedly put in an app order. Then we sat there....and sat...and sat. 20 or more minutes later, Finally, our actual server came over, had no idea what our drinks were and then put in our app and took our food order. The fried pickles were so overdone, they literally crumbled, and I don't mean the outside. The pickle itself crumbled. But, the few I dug out that weren't overdone were actually good. The flavor of the batter was good as well. The "wagyu" steak was $40 for 14oz of pure fat. My son who eats everything pushed it away and I'll be giving it to the dogs. If that was a wagyu steak I'll kiss your foot! So after we finished, we waited and waited and waited some more for them to finally offer us to go plates, but when they were brought out the check didn't come with them. I stood up put on my sweatshirt and gathered my stuff up, hoping it would signal the fact we were ready to go. Nope. We finally had to ask for it when the new girl in training came by. Then $78 for mediocrity all around. VERY SLOW service (even at dead empty), being forgotten, terrible steak, good country fried chicken though. I overheard another customer who only got dessert say it best "it won't be long before they close too. The was terrible." I feel ya, my guy. I'm surprised they're open this long if this is what it is. DONT GO!! You'll get better food at Waffle House or Applebees even, than here. read more

The food was delicious, my husband and I both had steaks they were good to perfection, the service was on point.

We decided to stop on our way to Gatlinburg. 3-6-23 The food was pretty good. I Got the fried fish, I like my fish crispy. It was kinda soggy. The onion rings were very good. The green beans were good too. One had the fettuccine and said, they loved it. We could hear Christian music playing while we ate and we were VERY happy about that. Our waitress was very kind very fast and super nice/friendly!! read more

We never got to eat. The bartender is very unprofessional and rude!! She made a big deal about everyone having an ID and wouldn't serve one of us, but served one person at our table without checking his ID. When she was confronted about the situation, she became very defensive and raised her voice. We let it all go, but she then refused to serve our table! As a bartender myself, she could use a few lessons in dealing with situations that she caused. Maybe she should work on her social skills instead of the wings on her eyes. read more

So me and my mom went here to eat and let's just say we won't be coming back because our food was 70 dollars for a 20 minute wait and my steak was mostly fat I got a 14 oz ribeye and the parts that were not fat was actually good the service was good but the lady that took our order left and the lady behind the bar "forgot" to tell our next waiter we were here and the fried pickles were absolutely butt because they just fell apart because they were so over cooked so that's the reason they got a two star from me read more

Do not eat there My husband got food poison and our steak wasn't cook the way we said.And it cost a lot for 2 people to eat there Awful I say read more

Not worth expense. Food ok, service was average as well. Went through 3 servers to get one knife, had to ask for the other one again. Food - ok, nothing to Bragg about. Too expensive. Had steak Tips with rice, only four tips, cannot substitute veggies (I do not do green beans, or care for squash) peach cobbler was pure sugar (one bit I was done), waitress was ok, but nothing there either (I used to waitress), very disappointed. First & last time there for us. Music was so loud could not hear each other talk. Did finally get it turned off! read more

After a long day of driving we were surprised to see that the hotel clerk's suggestion for dinner was spot on. We were a little nervous as the restaurant was not very busy but it was closing in an hour. We were delighted to experience great customer service. But most importantly the delicious handmade onion rings and cheese burger were exceptionally tasty. read more

Good service at a great price. The drinks were cold on a hot day and we enjoyed our meal.

First to time to Barney's and it was great. The owner visited our table and others during lunch and made us all feel at home. The food was great and the service was good. read more

We started to not go in because the parking lot was empty even though open sing was on. Very glad we did. Food and service were very good. I had the special, prime rib with steak fries and green beans. My wife had a huge cheeseburger with steak fries. Would order both again. read more

It was a nice place to stop for lunch. They had a large selection on the menu. We had 5 in our party and everyone liked what they had.

We stopped by for lunch while on a road trip to Gatlinburg. We had onion rings-very crispy & crunchy. My husband had a cheeseburger & I had a Patty Melt. They were both cooked exactly as we'd requested and were delivered to our table in just a few minutes. Our server, Valicity, was pleasant & efficient. She checked on us throughout our meal. The owner/manager also made a point to visit each table to thank everyone for coming to his restaurant. Several tables of locals were enjoying lunch, too. We noticed truckers coming in for a quick meal. Christian music was playing softly in the background. We liked that, as well. read more

Save your money and go somewhere else. They want you to wait to be seated but no one will come and seat you. I love gospel music but not in a drinking environment. I felt like I was drinking in church. The only reason I put one star bc it will not let me do ZERO stars!Service sucks and the bathrooms are dirty the toilets look like they haven't been cleaned in months with black rings inside the toilets and under the toilet seats read more

I'm going to start off by telling you that our food was wonderful and they were very accommodating to our group. The service was also excellent. But, ...my wife's order was the grilled pork chop dinner and she added a side salad. When her order arrived, she got two fabulous grilled pork chops, salad and French fries. There wasn't any mashed potatoes or squash melody. When she tried to point out her order was not correct, the server said fries came with the chops. My wife chose not to argue the point. I also chose not to argue that I got mashed potatoes instead of the baked potato that I had ordered with my hamburger steak. Again the food was great and it won't stop us from eating here again. read more

Went here on New Year's Day, Sunday 2023 after hitting mtn top trade day. Ordered the catfish and wow! It was amazing! 2 very LARGE fillets along with greens, slaw, fries and hush puppies! I was very impressed! My wife got the same and loved it just as much! Our friend got a burger and patty melt and the looked wonderful! We also started oit sigh the pimento cheese bits with pepper jelly and they are spot on! You can't go wrong with this place! Wonderful service as well! All around a great experience! read more

The food is always great and fast. The servers are always friendly. The pimento cheese balls are so unique and delicious.

I had the Fried Shrimp Basket. The food was amazing and the service was excellent!! Highly recommend.

It was my first time here and my last. Chicken and dressing was ok, but the sweet potatoe casserole and the Mac and cheese was terrible. The chocolate cake and roll was bad. I took leftovers home to give my dog. Even, the water was not filtered. read more

Good meal, HB Steak with mushrooms & grilled onions, turnip greens & onion rings, coleslaw all tasted Home cooked.

Great place. Food seems expensive until i tasted it. Quality that is hard to find. Owners are great down to eat people.

Food was great! Service was excellent! Owner was very attentive and kind. Nice place for any age or event.

I had the shrimp scami w slaw, wife had the steak stromboli. The scampi sauce was very nicely balanced. The slaw.. ohh the slaw. I dont even like slaw... normally. Absolutely perfect amount of heat. 10 minutes later i can still taste that little bit of delight. The steak sat on a genuine big easy po boy bun. Who does that? These guys do. The contents were up to that standard too. Two thumbs up from wife. We were just passing through on a rare trip but have added this place to our do-over list should we ever come back down i-59. read more

I wasn't impressed at all!! First it's super weird when you walk in because the sign says wait to be seated but there is no host and no way they can see you. Getting a seat took forever but they seemed to be under staffed to be fair and the waitress was very nice. The food wasn't good at all, and my quesadilla was burnt badly. It also took sometime to get the food. Not sure how they got so many 5 stars, maybe we just hit them on a bad day. read more

The food, service and staff are excellent. We had a large group and our dining experience was excellent.

We ordered the pimento cheese balls, that is a MUST. Then for a meal I got the grilled chicken and it was so good. This exactly the place Attalla needs. Service was speedy. Definitely going again soon. read more

We went for brunch ... I was craving some pancakes with butter and we figured this trucker-friendly restaurant would deliver. We left asking ourselves, "how can someone mess up pancakes? ". They were dry and not very sweet. Even butter couldn't redeem them, they disintegrated into crumbs as soon as the fork cut through My fiancé had eggs Benedict and, oddly, these were quite good. Perfectly poached, the eggs soaked the English muffins and mixed with hollandaise to make that lovely slurpy mess. Friendly sweet folks but the food was just a disappointment. read more
