Very expensive. Got made fun of when I wanted to order their charcuterie board by one of the staff. UWG students get a discount since the building is next door. It's ight. read more

A friend and I went to the drive thru around 7pm yesterday (5-11-2023). It didn't appear to be many people there and there was no wait to get to the window. The girl was friendly and quick to take our order. That's when the wait started we waited 15+ minutes (being nice here) before we got our food. I get home opened up the foil to view the BBQ and it was just meat. After asking me if I wanted mild or hot sauce they failed to put any kind of sauce on it. I even ordered an extra side container of the hot sauce and didn't receive it either. So I have to give them a one star rating because it's not BBQ without sauce, a very important thing to forget at a BBQ place is the sauce. read more

I was visiting a friend in Newnan Georgia and asked where I could find some good ribs. He suggested Dunc's so the wife and I stopped on the way out of town. The ribs were some of the best I've had. I'm heading back there this week. Ken & Teddy Blitchington read more

Ok I had to come back and update my review from 5 stars to 5 stars and just talk about the service, fast a friendly. And it's not every day you see the owner absolutely working his butt off. Taking calls, clearing tables, waiting tables- all while having a friendly conversation with all in ear shot. He ensures the food is perfect and all are happy- the BBQ is absolutely incredible- try the pudding too. You love to see it. read more

Dunc's BBQ Kitchen - A hard working business owner. - Barbeque Near Me - Newnan, Georgia

We love this place, although it is a bit pricey for the portions. When you're in downtown Newnan it's worth the stop. We love the brisket and the family pack has saved us many times when we were passing through without a plan for dinner. For St. Patty's day we ordered their sausage and cabbage large pan and it was very tasty just super light on the sausage and heavy on the cabbage, but once again it saved our dinner celebration so we were grateful. Ask for sauce for your sandwiches they are pretty dry without it! read more

The food is always good, the staff super friendly and it's a great place to support if you're looking for a local restaurant.

I felt welcomed to be here from the minute I walked in. The place is clean and well organized. This is local bbq restaurant that I'll revisit. Service is excellent and so is the food! read more

Dunc's BBQ Kitchen - 1/2 smoked chicken with Brunswick stew and potato salad - Barbeque Near Me - Newnan, Georgia

So good!! I did a "taste test" for a tail gate and was so pleased! The best barbecue I've had in SO LONG! And the place was super clean. Sometimes those Barbeque places are a little yuck inside! read more

Pretty disappointing food here. Nice restaurant, good ambiance, decent service for BBQ, interesting view of the cemetery across the street and convenient to the college and downtown. We were quite excited when we saw the menu our first time the other Friday night! They've got some great sounding selections. We ordered Brunswick stew, fried pickles, wings, pulled pork, catfish and shrimp, and a kids grilled cheese with sides of collards (veg of the day), beans, cole slaw, and potato salad. Almost every item pretty much tasted like it came off a Sysco truck, they threw it in the deep fryer and served it. No creativity or behind-the-scenes magic whatsoever. The Brunswick stew in particular tasted like a can of stewed tomatoes, a can of corn, and a pound of ground beef. The wings were pretty good and so was the pork. read more

We have needed a BBQ joint of this caliber in newnan for a LONG time! The food was all on point. I'm a huge lover and cooker of bbq. I know bbq. This bbq is hands down the real deal. Sides are also just as good. The owner takes the time to engage with all the patrons and makes them feel very welcome. We will be back to continue to support this awesome bbq joint!! read more

I have NO idea why locals rant and rave about this place. The food is mediocre at best. We ordered a pulled pork sandwich, a brisket sandwich, hush puppies and 2 sides. No drinks and this meal was $40!!! The brisket and pulled pork was pretty much just cooked meat. No smokey flavor or grilled taste what so ever. So many people say BBQ is all about the sauce, that is a LIE! BBQ is about the meat! If it were only about the sauce people would just eat bowls of sauce. The meat should be able to stand alone and the sauce be a bonus. At this place neither can stand on their own. The best thing we ate was the hush puppies and that is the ONLY reason they got 2 stars. Sorry folks, this ain't real GA BBQ! read more

So this is a long overdue review. Ive been coming to duncs since they first opened their doors / drive thru. I've never had anything on the menu that has disappointed! All of their meats are cooked perfectly, with great flavor! I recently decided to try their burger as well. Best burger I've had in a looooooong time. It's nothing fancy and reminds me of a stadium burger, which is part of its appeal in my opinion, but the flavor is where it's at! Don't miss out!!!! read more

DELICIOUS!! Definitely a MUST visit for Newnan locals and visitors. My mom had the BLT, my sister the smoked chicken sandwich and myself the loaded potato. We also had the strawberry shortcake and banana pudding. The pork and chicken were so tender and perfectly cooked!! The fried okra was perfectly crunchy fried. The french fries were delicious and well seasoned. They also had white bbq sauce which we loved! The portions were generous and we took home leftovers! The restaraunt was so clean and the staff were so sweet and friendly. There was no wait and we sat in a comfortable booth by the window as soon as we came in. Our food was cooked fresh and was ready quickly. There's great parking lot with plenty of parking but you could also walk from downtown Newnan if you wanted. It was raining while we were there but the outdoor seating space is cute and well taken care of. We will definitely return soon!! read more

Banana Pudding is the Jam! Jumbo shrimp are not super jumbo and the price is a little high. The frying batter was a little salty but the sides are awesome! The BBQ smelled very good . The decor is super nice and it's very clean. Lots of parking and outdoor seating. My husband and I shared a meal and added extra shrimp and it was a perfect amount. Mac n cheese extra creamy and delicious and Brunswick stew has a great flavor. read more

We've eaten here a few times and have enjoyed our meals each time. This last time, we took my father for lunch (he's from out of state) and he loved it. It's one of his favorite places to visit now, whenever he comes to visit us. One of tells of a good restaurant is when the owner is available and walking around talking to each of the customers. The owner of Dunc's has stopped and talked to us each of the times that we've been there. The last visit was during the Corona Pandemic. All of the staff had face masks and those handling food (including delivering food to the tables) wore gloves. We've had a hard time finding good brisket in GA and Dunc's has helped to fill that void for us. read more

Yelp asked and I acquiesced. Dunc's BBQ does not disappoint! What a cute, little restaurant inside! It's super clean and has the perfect BBQ motif! The service was lovely; very friendly staff. And the food, oh the food! I am HERE for the pimento cheese! Truly outstanding! Do they smoke the Gouda in house? Smoked sausage is a win! The ribs are PERFECT, great rib rub - I prefer dry ribs. Fried okra was on point. Potato salad was not my cup of tea...I found it a little overly sweet...standard Mayo, yellow mustard and sweet pickle relish. Incredible value...you get a good helping for your hard-earned dollar here. I'll be back!!! read more

I think this ma be the best bbq in Newnan. Very friendly service. We used the drive thru so we haven't gone inside to eat but the drive thru was quick. read more

Just gave them another chance. Picked up order and when I got home, not correct. So disappointed. Won't be back. Seems they just don't care any more. read more

Will never be back. Ordered food the high point of the meal for all three of us was the water. Pork dry and burnt. Fries soggy, slaw was bitter. The stew was vegetable soup. My brisket was burned also. Not a place for me. read more

To say I was surprised is an understatement. I wanted BBQ. I'm in Georgia after all. I used YELP to find Dunc's. This place is A W E S O M E!!! Very unassuming facade. We saw a few folks seated at a long table and another gentleman at the register. I chatted with him asking him what was good. Well, everything, he said was backed up by the owner, Dunc himself!! I ordered chicken and brisket. D E L I C I O U S!! Their sauces are fantastic. The brisket and chicken were both melt in your mouth awesome. When I am back in town, I will be heading right to Dunc's! read more

Dunc's BBQ Kitchen - Friendly local BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Newnan, Georgia

Looking for a no frills, down home barbecue with all the trimmings? This bbq kitchen is a Slam "DUNC"! My husband heard about Dunc's and we decided to try it it out. You place your order at the counter, and they bring it to your table. Drinks are self serve, and the whole staff runs like a well oiled machine. My husband ordered fried green tomatoes for an appetizer, and they were delicious. Absolutely 100% homemade. Served with a side of ranch for dipping. He had the pulled pork sandwich with a side of fried okra. A home run. I ordered the pulled chicken sandwich and French Fries. Another A+. Suffice it to say we will be back! Keep up the great work. read more

This is a favorite spot for my family to dine at when they come to visit us. Last night we we went for my sons birthday with our 4 out of town guests. We sat outside and it took an hour to get our food. After watching table after table that arrived over 30 minutes after us receive their food, finish it and leave we decided it was time to say something. We were very disappointed as we had spent over $125 dollars. There was plenty of staff working but our ticket must have been lost and we never received an apology. We are going to need to find a new local BBQ place to bring our out of town guest to in the future. To be honest we did receive 10% back but that was less than the tip we left when we ordered our food, prior to receiving it. read more

Easily the best bbq in Newnan. The chicken is amazing along with the Alabama white sauce and their original sauces. Everything is so so so so good and I love their outdoor seating and that they have drive through. While our waiter work a mask I noticed several of the workers or maybe owners were not wearing one which would have been appreciated. I also was confused why their Mac n cheese was crushed up but maybe it's just a personal preference. Otherwise everything was so good I will definitely be returning! read more

Went at 7pm on a Friday night, ordered and waited for our food outside. Around 7:30pm I noticed that the owner turned the Open sign off - no biggie - it seemed like a good business sign. Wrong. People started trickling out of the joint without food, which I thought was strange. Additionally it had been over 30 minutes after we had ordered and we hadn't gotten word about our order. Finally, AFTER 45 MINUTES, a worker (young girl - totally not her fault) came out to tell us our order had to be refunded because they ran out of food. I asked to visit with the owner about this. He came out, bragging about his sales over the past four weeks, what "did we want to do about this receipt", didn't offer any incentives to return, or apologies for wasting our time. Not how you do business and all of it was extremely off-putting. I support local businesses and I understand there is a learning curve, but 45 minutes to figure out you can't fulfill any part of our order is unacceptable. read more

Finger lickin delicious BBQ. I enjoying trying the Brunswick Stew and the meats were falling off the bones and so tender and juicy. Indulged in both the banana pudding and shortcake and waffles out of here very satisfied. Owner & waitstaff friendly and know their menu items. Fresh made daily. I liked the "field peas" as a side. New to me as a Northerner but loved everything about the place. Sampled quite a bit..smiles. High recommend and let's help local small business gain business. I'm big on shopping local.. hope you are too. read more

FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY! We've lived in Newnan for 16 years and FINALLY a BBQ joint that is what a BBQ is supposed to be. We ordered the pork plate and oh me.... no sauce needed for the pork, very tender, mild smoke as described on back of menu, slaw is the way slaw is supposed to be not cabbage soaked in vinegar. Okra was fried correctly. Ribs are trimmed correctly pre smoke, cooked the right amount of time not chewy, not tough. Service was great, everyone was so polite just as a southern BBQ joint should be. Will return and will tell everyone I know about this place. Oh yeah the strawberry shortcake will make yer tongue slap yer brains out! I can't say enough about how Great this place is. Look at my other reviews on here,,, I'm pretty conservative on these things. read more

Dunc's is the ONLY barbecue place to go in Newnan! It's always a tough choice between chicken, brisket, turkey, pork, catfish, shrimp...and now chicken dumplings! Fried okra and Mac and cheese are always great choices for sides. Finished up with a great banana pudding, but their strawberry shortcake is also killer. This is my go-to place for comfort food. The staff and service are excellent, and they treat you like an old friend. Love it! read more

Dunc's BBQ Kitchen - Tonight I had smoked chicken and dumplings, fried okra, Mac and cheese and banana pudding. - Barbeque Near Me - Newnan, Georgia

We ate there for the first time tonight. We all had BBQ pork which was delicious! We also had Brunswick stew, fries, baked beans, slaw, hush puppies and Mac and cheese. We didn't put a bite of anything in our mouth that wasn't delicious! The dessert was also to die for. We had a Pink Pig, which was a huge brownie topped with strawberry ice cream, whipped cream and sliced strawberries. Lastly, the owner came by and greeted us and was very personable! He was very appreciative of our business. We may have found our new favorite BBQ restaurant in Newnan! read more

Excellent new BBQ place in Newnan! Very friendly staff, quick service and delicious food. I had the combo plate with brisket, pulled pork, Brunswick stew, and baked beans. Pulled pork was very tasty and the brisket was excellent. Most places have dried out brisket that has been sitting around all day. Not here. Perfect combination of fat + meat + smoke! I'm currently lying down at the restaurant as I'm writing this review because I'm so stuffed. read more

Ordered takeout dinners and when I arrived they confirmed my name and gave me the order. After driving home and found they gave me someone else's order (door dash), I called and let them know and asked if they could remake my order so it would be hot and fresh by the time I got back to them, they said no. So by the time I got there my original order had been sitting on the counter for over 30 minutes. Needless to say when I got home it was cold and soggy. Not the customer service I expected from Duncs... read more

Great environment inside and out. Loved their pulled pork! Clear and neat and great service. Highly recommend!

Excellent customer service and delicious brisket, just what I was expecting, you guys rock! Although they ran out of fries Mac n cheese was awesome! There is finally barbecue place that cooks brisket just how I like it instead of cooking it with a lot vinaigrette like that other place close by which name I will not mention. Keep up the good job! Thank you! read more

OMG. The Ribs are Amazing!!!! You Already Know "GOOD RIBS" doesn't Need Any Sauce. I was driving pass Dunc's and had to Turn Around Because The Smell was saying Come Eat Here read more

Wasn't really impressed with the food. Atmosphere was as to be expected from a decent bbq restaurant. Catfish had no flavor other than corn meal. Beans tasted like they came out of a big can and they just added jalapeños. Hush puppies were dry as a bone. Smoked chicken was good. Better alternatives in Newnan, especially for the price you pay. read more

Great new bbq spot in newnan off major interstate with a lovely and friendly staff. Beef brisket is a must try very lean and large portion size. Drive thru available read more

The real thing. We go here almost once a week. Great brisket, home made fried okra, chicken salad is delicious. Not only a yummy dine in place with the friendliest people ( I'm looking at you, Josh), but you can stop in and get smoked pulled chicken that I use for soup or tacos, we even get fried catfish to go to make fish tacos at home, or take home some chicken salad for the week. Even their Brunswick stew is better than any other around. Convenient, freshly made , friendly and a great addition to Newnan dining. read more

Went during the Covid-19 so did takeout at ate in parking lot. Food was very tasty but hard to rate during the circumstances.

My husband and I are very picky when it comes to bbq, and there are at least 5 other bbq places in the newnan area; however, this is the only one we both raved about everything we ate. I can't wait to return to try more, and I'm sure I'll be calling ahead to use the drive-thru. The photo I took was taken after I ate some, I forgot to take a pic before I started eating. read more

Dunc's BBQ Kitchen - pulled pork plate, ate some before taking a photo, and my Texas toast isn't in the pic. - Barbeque Near Me - Newnan, Georgia

Ate here a couple of times & actually like there foodbut the other day I pulled up& sat outside waiting for them to come take my order. As I waited a older Caucasian lady sat at another table... An employee (caucasian) walked out turned to the lady & told HER they were closed... I responded "Man that sucks for me, Online it says your open" She ignored me and told the older lady thanks for stopping by and went back inside. Didnt even acknowledge me. Was it because Im a young black man??? read more

Great hidden bbq in historic Newman Ga. We had the smoke turkey, and pulled pork plates with okra and Mac and cheese. This is a hidden gem for the area. read more
