The ingredients were fresh and tasty! As we waited, my husband tried their homemade Fruity Pebble ice cream and then got a waffle cone!! I tried their vanilla and it was the freshest ice cream I've tasted!

THREE TIMES IN... AND BARLEY'S IS ON POINT AGAIN. SOLD!…read more Let me tell you about the pizza nightmare we've experienced over the last four years of living in a small town. I would have taken a picture but we ate it all! We consider ourselves pizza aficionados (yes, we have standards). We like a good sauce, not an obscene amount of cheese, and a crust that can actually fold when you need it to--but also one that, when you hold it by the crust, doesn't droop like an old man's eyelid. Over the past four years, we've tried our fair share of pizza places in Elizabeth City where we live and every one seems to have had something that just didn't work for us. Too much cheese. Wrong sauce. Soggy crust. You name it. Just YUCK! Now, we aren't the people who bash restaurants or leave negative reviews just because something wasn't our cup of tea. If we're going to take the time to say something, it's because it's GOOD--and, more importantly, CONSISTENT. And Barley's? Three visits in, and they've delivered every single time. The wings deserve a shout-out too! These aren't those weakling, baby-chick wings that leave you wondering where the actual chicken went. They've got some meat on them, and the hot flavor has just the right kick. Now, you're not going to Barley's for fancy ambiance--and honestly, that's perfectly fine with us. We like our house. We pick up our food, put on the game, and eat exactly where we want. So, without a doubt, we are officially happy to report: WE LOVE BARLEY'S. And to all the other pizza guys out there... You might want to keep an eye on this one. Barley's is a silent gem, and word is definitely getting out.

Starting with the long wait for the delivery - Ordered at 5:35 and received the order at 7:09p. I would understand if it was a busy Fri or Sat night but it's 5:30 on a Wednesday. Then the cheese bread would have been ok but Wow was there a lot of grease in that box (check pics). Then when I went to dip into the marinara - it was ice cold. I ordered a side of ranch but since they sent it in the box w/ the bread & was Luke warm. Just not a good mix. I would give them a try again because of the flavor of the sauce and taste of the Stromboli but next time might dine in.

I was informed that was a new item on the menu and the server asked about what would have made it better and I said the same thing I'm telling you ( just one burger Pattie would have been plenty).

I tried the chopped, they called it minced, BBQ. It was very finely chopped, without any texture, and heavily seasoned with a vinegar-based sauce. It was definitely not the best Eastern NC 'Q I've eaten. At least the slaw seemed freshly made. I paid an up charge for sweet potato fries and was rewarded with a heaping helping of undercooked frozen sweet potato fries that were closer to tasteless than tasty. The hush puppies were just balls of bready blandness - yuck. My dining companion tried the fried chicken and pulled pork combo. She thought the fried chicken was good and based on the number of other Customers ordering it, this is Southland's main draw. The pulled pork was stringy strands of pork seasoned like the chopped 'Q; she tried a couple of bites and gave up. Our server was not attentive and seemed like she didn't really care too much. The tasty fried chicken knocked Southland out of the running for a 1-star review, but all-in-all our meal just wasn't very good and really doesn't paint NC BBQ in a positive light.

The okra was alright. Some fried pieces did not even have okra present. I liked the mustard presence in the potato salad. I do wish there was more potato present. The hushpuppies came out hot and were fried ideally. There was a nice balance of batter to filling too. Regarding the meat, the pork was definitely the best of the two. There was just enough flavor. It was better when the sweet and original BBQ sauce was added. The pulled brisket was okay. It needed more flavor. I also had banana pudding ($4.99). It was very solid. There was a lot they packed in a small container. It was sweet with plenty of cream present. Will I go back? I would.
