    Food and service is always A+ I enjoy their wraps the best! Choose grilled or fried both equally delicious. This is a family friendly destination. Good for groups or just a few friends. Live entertainment and good cold beer!

    Pulled pork platter, mac & cheese and maybe grits? I didn't order grits. But she's going to bring my dirty rice.

    Trip 1: I really want to give this place a 5, but 5s are for flawless executions. When I first came in the porch was a disaster with trash everywhere. They got my order wrong, though they gladly fixed it. And the first chair I sat in was falling apart. But otherwise it's nice. The food was good but the sides were awesome, specially the mac & cheese, dirty rice and cheese grits. Everyone was super nice. As far as ambiance, it's standard tavern/sports bar so if that's good for you, it's good. Trip 2: I had to take a star off for cleanliness. I came back for the sides a few days later and the spot at the bar I was at was all sticky and shit. I'm not sure the sides are really good enough for a third trip. Trip 3: called ahead so I didn't have to spend a significant time in the store. I only ordered mac & cheese. I still had to flag down a bartender. When I got the food I felt the bag and noted it included utensils only to note when I got home, it was a OPENED utensil bag that only had the knife left. I'm done with this place. Lowering my rating to reflect this.

    Doc's Porchside - Grovetown, GA Food: My group ordered the fried catfish, brisket sandwich with collard greens side and the brisket grilled cheese with tots. Oh, smoked wings. The brisket sandwiches are simply delicious, tender and juicy. The wings with the spicy ranch sauce was special, Service: Our waitress was attentive and pleasant, check on us frequently and was available. The hostess upon entering didn't look up to greet us, the establishment wasn't busy... I charge it to youthfulness. Ambiance: I like the sport bar vibe, tv's all around. I get a seafood restaurant vibe also. They have a full bar and a huge dining area.

    This is my second time coming here and it was really good. To be honest the first time wasn't great but this time it was perfect. The service was great and the food was cooked to perfection and seasoned perfectly. I'm glad I gave it second chance because it did not disappoint. The buffalo chicken with Mac and cheese had me worried but nope it was amazing to me!!! I want to go back just to eat it again lol. The place is really nice and welcoming. It's so spacious and decorated nicely. I really recommend this place.

    SOFIE!! The best server we've had here! She was so attentive, nice, and brought us everything we needed without us having to ask. She recommended the cheese steak hoagie and it was great! When we come back, we will ask for her every time!!!

    Shrimp and grits
    Tawanna K.

    Great food fast and friendly service! The shrimp and grits were delicious! Family friendly and nice atmosphere!

    Plain smoked wings with mild buffalo and bourbon bbq sauces on the side.

    Service was excellent. We sat down and within 2 minutes our server had already stopped by. The Taco Nachos were really good. The wings were good also. Draft beers were super cold and good price.

    Brisket Mac and Cheese
    Patrick G.

    Mediocre typical bar food. Tried the brisket mac and cheese which sounded fantastic but the brisket was overcooked and the Ritz topping on the mac and cheese was burnt. The other ingredients (onion and jalapeños) were just kind of thrown on top instead of cooked into the actual dish. The actual mac and cheese was pretty good though. Not great, not bad, but I will likely not return.

    Girl Brunch!!!! Met a girlfriend brunch and enjoyed a great meal too. The drinks were delicious and the brunch menu looked incredible. Our waitress was super sweet and accommodating. Since we were there for brunch we hit at just the right time where it wasn't too packed. The TV volume was low enough that you weren't having to talk over it like you do at other sports bars during brunch hour.

    Pork plate was VERY fatty and greasy. Sides were good. Service was poor. Decor was nice.

    I would prefer to give a 3.5 but that is not an option…read more Including tip, we paid about $100 for 3 people: 1 ordered the ribs and chicken 1 ordered the ribs and pork 1 ordered 2 meat plate with ribs and pork First, the good: The pork was excellent. Juicy, chopped well, and God sauce. If I go back, I will order this and a pop/tea along with baked beans. The baked beans were pretty awesome...mine had little pockets of brown sugar! Yum! The mediocre: The chicken was pretty good in moisture and flavor and chunk size. However, it was very strong on black pepper...not our cup of tea but if you like a chicken with your black pepper, enjoy! The coleslaw was just meh. Like, average kind of sauce, no real lean towards sweet or sour. The mac n cheese taste like every other store bought or chain Mac n cheese. The bad: The ribs. The ribs were bad. I mean, BAD. First off, they smelled of charcoal/lighter fluid. Nothing screams appetizing ribs like a good chemical smell! Second, they literally tasted like charcoal soaked in light fluid that was then stopped with sauce. Bottom line, none of us could eat or enjoy the ribs. The service was annoying. This is mainly becuase they told one member of my party that substitution was not allowed...except that person always substitutes there. The absolute worst thing though, and I do not think this place should advertise as a BBQ joint because of it is: - no brisket....NONE!!! - NO CORNBREAD. I can almost understand the lack of brisket on the menu but come on, no cornbread at a ribshack??? So yeah, I would recommend the pork and the baked beans, and a small scoop of the chicken. But nothing else.

    Shane's catered our family Christmas festivities, and I genuinely cannot say enough good things…read moreabout the experience. The food was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you're feeding a large group. There was plenty of food, great portion sizes, and an overall fantastic value for the quality and quantity provided. The service was phenomenal from start to finish. Communication was clear, everything was on time, and the entire process was smooth and stress-free, which is priceless during a busy holiday. Customer service was top-tier, and the owner was absolutely phenomenal--professional, kind, and clearly invested in making sure everything was perfect. If you're looking for great BBQ, outstanding service, and a team that truly cares about their customers, Shane's in Grovetown delivers on all fronts. I will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them for catering or any event.
