Nothing fancy when you enter but the smells of bbq and the food makes up for the decor! The menu isn't to large but what's there is very good. On your table are 3-4 choices of different bbq sauce, all are good, my favorite is the spicy with a little heat. They have daily specials and you cannot go wrong with any of them. The prices have gone up a little but in these times, who's haven't gone up. I have never been let down by their service, they have always been attentive to my needs without being overbearing I have been the last few weeks on Wednesday, daily special is .50¢ smoked wings and they have been amazing. Good size and great flavor without being to smoky. Minimum order is 10, which isn't a problem for me and they are fine in only. One of their sides is baked beans and they are beyond description, that's how good they are! You have to try a desert, nothing is a wrong choice, I have had a couple different of their pies but my favorite to date in the banana pudding! read more

Tried Bub-Ba-Q tonight. I'd give them a 4 for their barbecue and fries and a 0.5 star for their horrible service!!! Perhaps they should just convert to a counter service model since we had to keep getting up ourselves to get silverware, napkins, and soda refills as well as to remind our waitress of things missing from our order. The atmosphere was typical of an old barbecue joint, moderate noise level, and good barbecue despite the terrible service. Their wings were quite good as they are smoked first, then fried, seasoned, and served. The smoked flavor was definitely noticeable and good tasting. I'd probably go back but not right away. They need to get there service act together soon before they lose customers! read more

The waitress didn't listen to us very well and got my order completely wrong except the mashed potatoes and gravy and Brunswick stew was correct the chopped pork that I want but I got chopped chicken not very good the service was the absolute worst service I ever had. Never going back after this visit. The lighting in the restaurant was very nice I loved the way it was inviting and I've been coming here for a long time and I'm very disappointed in the owner and the staff. read more

I really wanna love this place, but every time and today's Thursday and the pork is dry. Come on all you have to do is tend to it.

Have been using Uber Eats to order from here so I figured why not do a sit down lunch because the food was always good. It was noon on a Thursday. They had what looked like 1 server for 9-10 tables; I eventually saw a second server come out 30 minutes after we arrived. The place was below 1/4 capacity and one table left because they hadn't had their orders taken while tables that were just sat got their orders in. Food was extremely slow in coming out, as well. We arrived at 12 and had order taken at 12:15. People who were there longer than us were still waiting on food by 12:30. It looked like they only had 1 cook; and based on how long it was taking they must have been working on a single order at a time. I wouldn't advise coming in if you're hungry, because it took around 35 minutes from walking in until food showed up. Definitely not worth the time, as the food now tastes just like every other BBQ place. Whatever made the flavors unique previously is gone. Even the BBQ sauce at the table was watered down; pouring it out from the containers was literally a downpour of water and then sauce. read more

A good bbq place should be packed for normal lunch and dinner time. However, we walked in and for a few minutes we were the only one in the restaurant around 12pm. After a few minutes 2 other people came in but max was 6 people. The placed smelled great. My family got ribs, chicken and pork. The ribs were tough and dry, the chicken was dry and the pork was "ok". The baked beans were delicious and the fries were mediocre. The reason for the place not being packed is now made obvious. It is possible I came on a "bad" day and that depending who is in the kitchen it could be better. I am not a great cook, but I do know how to throw ribs in a Sous vide or in a pressure cooker and they come out falling off the bones and are pretty good. However, they should not be better than a bbq restaurant with awards (old ones) displayed all over the place. This was our first and last visit. Unless someone says it is completely different we won't be back. We typically go to Calhoun to get great bbq. Either at Dubs or Thatchers. But around us, Jim N Nicks is the best. They sometimes have off days but it is better than Bub-Ba-Q. read more

The brisket was super dried up inedible to be honest super surprised have visited for years upon visiting ga . The fries fresh hand cut and still awesome the soda taste great and Mac n cheese was good but due to the brisket being so bad I cannot give more than one star read more

I heard from a friend the wings were good, but we don't eat wings, but I went anyway. Between the fake instant potatoes, the grizzly barbecue, and the chicken tenders which they neglected to take out that white vein. I had a spit out into my napkin. The meal gave us an upset stomach. I did read reviews on the wings. They weren't that good either. to spend $15 apiece on a pitiful plate was sad. We will never go back to this place.. read more

The wings in this place are fantastic. The service is good. The price is right. They have a lot of different fantastic choices. Really good place. read more

I order a bunch of time from Uber Eats. I get ribs and banana pudding a lot. Tonight the banana pudding when I got it was just wiped cream and vanilla wafers. nothing else. very disappointed. not sure if I would order again. if they didn't have it the could have reach out. read more

The food and the service was really great! This is a great place to hold a large get together with church friends.

Bub-Ba-Q is the standard for BBQ. The bar is high for bbq in Ga, and it's set here. When you walk in to the restaurant you see all the awards they have been won by this establishment and your eyes are raised and expectations set. You can get your full of all your bbq favorites, but the ribs are my go to option. You absolutely have to order the corn fritters if you have a chance. Imagine if you will, deep fried cream corn. It gets my taste buds salivating just thinking about it. They have many different sauces to apply to your meats, but I love the sweet sauce. You eyes can end up being bigger then your stomach, but that just means wonderful leftovers for later at home. read more

Bub-Ba-Q - Pulled Pork, ribs, corn fritters, French Fries, Texas toast - Barbeque Near Me - Woodstock, Georgia

Bub-ba-q was a truly major disappointment. I probably would have given it 1 star, but the waitress was excellent & pleasant, & that is worth something. I ordered a brisket sandwich & a side of baked beans. In addition, my friend ordered a bunch of ribs & shared them with me. The brisket seemed to be very low quality. It was a lot of fat & only a little bit of true meat. Its flavor was lacking, & so the sandwich seemed like a complete waste of $10. Meanwhile the baked beans tasted like an overdose of black pepper. And lastly the ribs. All I can say is that my friend & I found them boring. I just looked up Yelp reviews from this past year, & it seems like our observations are in line with others. It sounds like years ago The food was so much better, but in the past year it has spiraled downward. read more

We went with the family on Wednesday Wing night, and boy do they have good wings. They're smoked first, then fried, then dressed with your choice of sauce or dry rub. The meat easily pulls off the bones, is succulent on the inside and crispy on the outside. Our server was young but extremely polite and attentive. Inside the restaurant is tidy and clean with lots of BBQ competition awards, although it's a bit odd to have the entryway with a guiding wall (like at a counter order restaurant) when it's tableside service. We will definitely be back, as this is our new spot for wings. read more

Wings were amazing. Go on Wednesdays they're 50 cents each. The staff was on point and very attentive.

The service was good I order the combo chicken and ribs with potato salad and corn also a cup of chili everything was delicious except the ribs I'm sorry to say that the ribs are one of the worst I have ever had The ribs were dry and hard it seemed they were reheated and I couldn't even chew them because they were too hard the flavors were very good I don't know what happened but I was disappointed about the ribs read more

Still known for small portions ! Haha it's hilarious now how shitty this place is ! Small side portions , small meat portions , large price for mircowave bbq ...city bbq is a WAYYYY better deal and it's a chain hahhaha wanted to help this family but bubba q is a scam ! read more

They added an unauthorized tip onto my bill for a take out order. Highly inappropriate

Really great variety, barbecue options sauces, good value, lots of multiple taste, and serving sizes! Very good barbecue

Popped in on a Wednesday night with the family for wing night. Every Wednesday is $.50 wing day. Not sure about y'all but wings at that price is worthy of a celebration. The scoop...I've been on a few different Wednesdays and the size of the wings may vary but you will get what you pay for and then some. The flavors are good and may come across kind of basic but they taste so good!! (Sweet & spicy is my personal favorite!) Service has been consistently fantastic. Kudos to BubbaQ for giving me something exciting on hump day! read more

Delicious wings and always great service! Can't go wrong there on a Wednesday with the wing specials.

The food was OK. The ambiance and over all look and cleanliness of the restaurant was standard of a bbq place. The service started off fine.. but I suppose we caught Kelsey on a bad day when we asked for water after not getting drinks for 20minutes because she was beside herself that we'd expect to be served. The manager Aldo also could use some coaching in the restaurant management industry because he said I had a bad attitude for complaining to him (the manager) about his servers speaking to customers like that. The food is only OK and was easily a zero star for crappy service. DO NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Great bar b que and fantastic sides. Reasonably priced. Loved the slaw and fries are top notch

We went there for lunch and the food was good. My wife is a rib person and she is in love.

Overcharged again. Ordered the BBQ chicken wrap and charged $2.00 extra for getting the chicken versus the pork. But yet the menu said either pork or chicken. Good food but just review your bill before paying. Not sure if it was the servers mistake or they just haven't updated the menu to not allow chicken in the wraps. I questioned it and was told chicken was extra. read more

Even at 11am on Sunday in the south Bub-Ba-Q delivers !! Today was a two meat combo day, ribs and brisket ... brisket was tender and moist , the ribs feel off the bone and had a rich flavor. The sauce options are many : sweet, hot & spicy, mustard and vinegar. As a KC native sweet was my choice this morning and they have a great sweet option !! I also grab some beans and slaw .. the bean are the right kinda bean I like but not enough meat mixed in and this batch a little to much peeper for my liking but still solid .. Slaw was GOOD and I'm not a slaw fan but would defiantly recommend if your a fan to vine or a try .. read more

Food is good, but CHARGING A $3 SHARING FEE TO SHARE A MEAL IS RIDICULOUS when there are tons of BBQ places around. I stopped in with my wife and 2 kids. My wife and I decided to split a rack of ribs. The waitress said they charge a sharing fee WTF? Service was good, but won't be back as the are plenty of other Choices that welcome the business. read more

Worst food I've ever had! I am a fat dude and I literally left all my food on my plate and walked away with a $60 bill my wife ate a few bites of hers and left 98% of it on her plate as well best thing here was the unsweetened tea. I would've literally rather had a pack of $.19 Ramen noodles than what I had here got to stop this yelp review to go find somewhere else to eat now. Please do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to go. read more

My friend has been absolutely raving about this place and specifically their ribs so I just had to try it. We came here around 5 pm on Sunday and there were actually quite a few patrons inside. The place is very casual as to be expected and mostly decorated with their awards and ribbons, with an occasional pig thrown into the mix. Our waitress was very efficient. She took our drink order right away, brought it back and was ready to take our order. I needed more time though lol For the apps we ordered wings (just smoked, not fried) and burnt ends. I've never tried burnt ends and I guess I expected the dish to be different. It was swimming in a bowl of sauce but the meat was very dry somehow, even with all of that sauce. The pieces that weren't overly dry were just fat. Wings were good but pretty cold. I guess that's because they couldn't fry them.. Now onto the ribs.. Oh how I was craving these amazing "best ever" ribs.. They were good. BUT not amazing :(. Definitely can't say they were the best I've ever tried. A bit dry and kind of tough.. For my side I got sweet corn and although juicy, it wasn't sweet. Overall: very prompt service, patio (but it overlooks a parking lot and not very friendly looking), kitschy quirky atmosphere, beer+wine ONLY. Open kitchen so you can see them cooking. Not sure it's worth the drive but if in the are, do try it. read more

The food is AMAZING. My husband and I had been craving some good barbecue, so we ordered through door dash. The BEST brisket and pasta salad I have ever had. The homestyle mashed potatoes are simple and so flavorful. I even called them mid-dinner to tell them how much I love it!!!! The person who answered the phone was so sweet too, love this place. Won't be ordering from any other barbecue restaurant from here on out! Left the same review on Google because this place is under-hyped!!! read more

Covid cannot jump across the room and grab you. Wash your hands, wear a mask. If you are so concerned with covid hopping across the room and grabbing you, here's a thought-keep your butt at home. I'll have you know I'm certified in infection control and epidemiology for ten years now. I'm a nurse. I also don't review businesses negatively when they're actually trying to do their part in stopping spread of disease. This business does a fabulous job. I am five minutes from them and eat here often. I order take out and dine-in. Never have I felt uncomfortable there. It's one of the more caring and cleaner businesses I visit. If you're going to post a review, be truthful and don't speak with emotion. If you're this paranoid, have delivery or better yet, cook at home. To those reading, this is delicious bbq, the servers are always great, never had a bad experience. I eat here often and would hate them to lose business because some paranoid man left a bad review. Enjoy their bbq and definitely try their ribs and bubbapenos. One last thing, the person you complained on serves me often, Sarah, she's extremely quick, never forgets anything and goes above and beyond...you really should consider she's a human and deserves respect just as much as you do, Sir, before you post again! read more

Bub-Ba-Q - Ribs. Mmmm - Barbeque Near Me - Woodstock, Georgia

Very impressed. The reviews on here are mixed but the wife and I decided to give it a try. We got hickory fries, (half) smoked chicken, chicken tenders, corn fritters, green beans, and fried mac and cheese. It was all delicious. The only bad part was, I'm still working from home and had the itis the remainder of the work day. Highlights...corn fritters. We've had some not so great corn fritters in MD before but were glad to come down and get the real thing. read more

Bad all around. We did not even get to order because the waitress was so rude. She got mad at me for being deaf and asking her to repeat herself so I could read her lips. Then she got mad when I asked for water without ice. Then she brought me ice. I was so upset over her attitude we just left. Would have loved to try the food but your server was very discriminatory. read more

This is a great barbecue joint! I come here with a loud, annoying group of friends ;) almost every Wednesday. We usually get the same waitress, who is wonderful, and basically knows our orders by heart. I really like their ribs & pulled pork sandwich. I've never tried their wings, but that's what my group normally gets & they love them. I like mixing their sweet bbq sauce & their spicy one. Try this place next time you want bbq & great service! read more

This is in response to a Grubhub order today. Ordered 2 meals and 1 sandwich. Was asked what sauces. Mentioned all the sauces I wanted and zero came. This is the 2nd time my bbq showed and had ZERO sauce on it or included. Very disappointed. read more

Too worried bout closing at 8pm. Sat at 730 and waitress was pushing for us to get it to go.what restaurant closes at 7:30?

Excellent food and service! Will visit again soon. Stew is like my mom made in the day.

The wait staff is extremely rude! I know you were busy, but that does not become the customers problem. And your sign of "if your sharing a plate we will charge you an additional $3" is crazy. I wasn't planning on sharing a plate, but it makes me think of buying a shirt from Target and being told if I let someone borrow this they will charge me extra...once I purchase something it belongs to me and I can do with it what I want. read more

Would have given two stars but we were sat next to the exit. Outside temp is 40 degrees, every time someone left my entire family would get blasted with a burst of 40 degree winds. Please invest in an air curtain for your exit door. We moved tables three times and each time we moved one table away from the door. All the while there were plenty of open seats in the middle of the restaurant. Guess our server just didn't understand that we wanted to eat without shivering. Our jackets stayed on our entire meal. Also the fries taste like they have sugar on them?? I had the "Chili-Chong-A - Like the Hog but with brisket and topped with chili and cheese" and it tasted like it had sugar and maybe cinnamon on it...very strange in a bad way. After waiting 10 mins following the entire family using the restroom I had to track our server down to pay so we could leave. My recommendation is to skip this place. Just go to Stevi B's, Philly Connection, or Taco Bell next door...your sure to get better service and about the same quality of food. Stars and Strikes probably has better food. read more

Great quality bbq for very reasonable prices. Very quick service too. The smoked/fried wings are one of my favorite things on the menu.
