LEGIT SMOKEHOUSE !!!…read more About as mountainesque of a restaurant as you are going to find in the Smoky Mountains. Big gravel parking lot (do not spin out your tires). Two ways to enter - straight up stairs or multi level stairs, each depending on your knee strength - optional wheel chair accessible entrance at the front with a single handicap parking space. Upon entry, the scent of bbq smacked me right in the face. Greeted by two staff members and the bbq pit master. Not expecting a craft beer bar inside but it had a big brew selection on tap with cocktails and wine too. Ordered three full slab of bbq ribs with cole slaw and shoe string onions for $34.00, thought it was pricey until I saw the plate coming toward me by the server with two half slabs (see pic). The sheer girth and weight of the ribs were worthy of the price point. Bit into the first half slab and at the same time got a whiff of the sticky charred meat. Holy S*** it was fall off the bone moist with a nice smoky sauce, which brought an immeditate tear of joy to my left eye. I put some sweet sauce on my slab and onto my onions for added bliss. I have to commend them for the flavorful coleslaw with a light tang of vinegar. Lately, I have been getting bland coleslaw at restaurants but took a leap of faith here and was rewarded handsomely. The gender neutral ADA compliant bathroom was clean with a rustic theme. Dark wood walls with an oval mirror hovering above the wall mounted modern sink. Little gift shop at the entry door slinging Highlands Smokehouse items. Wonderful experience here and would recommend it highly to anyone that loves bbq in North Carolina.

The meals are large and shareable. The brisket was juicy and flavorful. My favorite part was dessert, the peach cobbler and banana pudding were homemade and so satisfying.

We recently visited Haywood Smokehouse and ordered two full racks of dry-rub ribs with mac and…read morecheese, fries, and coleslaw. Overall, we enjoyed our meal. The ribs were well-cooked, the portions were generous, and the service was great. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food arrived promptly. The mac and cheese, fries, and coleslaw were all enjoyable and complemented the meal well. That said, we're giving it 3 out of 5 stars. While the food was good, we felt the selection of sides was somewhat limited compared to other barbecue restaurants. Our biggest disappointment was the barbecue sauce. The sauces were very thin, and because of that, they didn't really cling to the ribs. We personally prefer a thicker, richer sauce that stays on the meat and adds more flavor with each bite. Despite those points, we still had a pleasant experience and can see why many people enjoy this spot. Good food, good service, and a solid barbecue stop if you're in the area.

I realized quickly that it was drive-through only, with no dine-in option. But the reviews were so great I had to give it a try! I was not disappointed!!! The service was warm, inviting, and friendly. And while a line definitely forms for the drive-through, it does move pretty quickly. I got the BBQ plate with pulled pork, plus a side of BBQ beans. The food was delicious. The pork was tender and juicy, the cole slaw was just right, and the fries were tasty. And the beans were delicious too! For those who live in the area, this is a perfect spot for bringing home some delicious BBQ. But for those of us who are just visiting, I can attest that it is well worth stopping by even if you're going to be eating the BBQ in your car or hotel room!

What an awesome place to visit! I totally recommend visiting the Cashiers Farmers Market for sure…read more Too many things to list in my review, but they have everything and more you'd expect at a farmers market. My bro and I had lunch at their BBQ place, literally on the side attached to the farmers market called, you guessed it; "On The Side Barbeque". The beef brisket sandwich melted in your mouth, it comes with 2 sides of your choice. I ordered mine with collard greens and homemade potato salad. The meal also comes with a can of soda or water bottle and a small bag of chips. It's actually a great value and they have a nice covered open air outdoor area to eat at. Service was great -- they have it down to a science there. Look forward to returning next time I'm in Cashiers!

Okay, I love it…read more I've been by this market numerous times, but we're staying in Cashiers for a few days, and decided today was the day. And I'm glad we did. They had a perfect pack of candles that I HAD to have, and I bought honeycomb for The Granddaughter -- she loves it. The young lady at the counter was so sweet and friendly. The atmosphere was light and happy. This is a great place to shop. If you haven't been here, you MUST go. I could almost say, If they don't have it, you don't need it.

The sides are very simple but they compliment the BBQ. Fried okra was fresh and cooked to perfection. The jalapeño cheese grits are unbelievable and a must try!

A lot of food, and I was really full. The Brisket was only okay. A little dry, even though I had requested the point (fatty part). Probably would not get this again. Ribs were decent, although they didn't have very smoky flavor. Almost as if it were cooked on a pellet grill. The highlight were the Sauces, which were great, and there were a bunch of options The pecan pie was terrible unfortunately. Recommend just skipping desert, especially since the food portions are large. Clientele were mainly elderly, so even though we arrived early we had to wait. And when we left, the place was almost empty.
