Great place to get an old fashioned breakfast, and great lunch, and great supper, and great service!

An old fashioned hamburger place, where you order inside at the windows and they cook you burger to order. The inside of the place gives you the feel of a place in the past. Parking around the building. read more

I was excited to stop back in for lunch after having a really great first experience here. It has a…read moreclassic hometown diner feel with food that matches the decor. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. When we arrived, there was a table of four who had already eaten and were just sitting and talking. We stood at the counter for about 10 minutes, even called out toward the kitchen, but no one ever came out. As we were leaving, we spoke with a gentleman outside, and I noticed another customer go in. Over the 20 minutes we stood there talking, that person was still at the counter as well. I don't know if they had been helped already or not, so I don't want to assume, but from what I saw, there didn't seem to be any staff present. It's disappointing because I really enjoyed my first time here. The food was good and the staff were very kind. I'll give it another try in the future, but I left this time without being able to order.
I really want to support this restaurant because the food is good, but this has become a recurring…read moreissue. The menu advertises meat and vegetable plates being available daily from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. However, every time I come in around 6:30-7:00 p.m., I'm told those items are no longer available because they've already been put away. To make it even more frustrating, I checked the online ordering app before I came in, and it clearly showed the meat and vegetable plates were still available to order. After arriving, I was told they couldn't make one because everything had already been put away. There are plenty of fried food options available, which is great if that's what you want. But for those of us who can't eat fried foods or simply prefer the meat and vegetable plates, it's disappointing to make the trip only to find out they won't prepare what's advertised on the menu. It gives the impression that the staff simply doesn't want to take the time to make those meals that late in the evening. This has happened on multiple occasions, so it doesn't seem like a one-time issue. If the meat and vegetable plates are regularly unavailable before 8:00 p.m., then the restaurant should either update its advertised hours and online ordering or continue serving them until the posted closing time. Unfortunately, they lost a sale because I chose not to stay after finding out the meal I came for wasn't actually available.

Somethings you need to know about Marion Pit BBQ are: Southern Living magazine did a feature on them. They are primary drive-thru but have benches and tables outside to eat on. They do ribs on Wednesday and Saturday and chicken on Sunday and Thursday. But you are going to want the pulled pork because it was a-ma-zing! It was tender, juicy, and seasoned well. I'm so glad I doubled the meat! There are two sauces - a mild and hot. They remind me a lot of Sonny's Mild and Smokin BBQ sauce except with the made fresh aspect. I would rank the Hot as a 6 or 7 on a heat scale. My sides were potato salad and Mac and cheese. The potato salad is a mustard style and had celery in it. The mac ancl cheese was solid. The one thing I wish they would do would be offer fresh-brewed sweet tea. I remembered Marion currently has a water crisis so maybe brewing sweet tea is out of the question. They do have bottled drinks. The pulled pork and sauce alone make Marion Pit a 5 for me

I saw several reviews obviously of locals this place but I assure you there is nothing to see here…read more I was pretty hungry too when I stopped in which lets you know just how below average the food was. I ordered the chicken fried steak with white gravy, fried okra, "Mac and cheese" and "cornbread" Let's start with what went well! I was greeted and sat rather quickly and my drink order was taken. The food came out super fast and now I know why! My country fried steak was a country fried steak, no more no less! My fried okra was fried okra previously frozen I'm sure. The "Mac and cheese" HAHAHA! Was Kraft and was ice cold( Literally ) Zero flavor, zero seasoning, they didn't even try to dress it up. My " Cornbread? Was a blob of tasteless cornmeal and flour that was so dry and tasteless that I took a bite and spit it in my napkin. NOPE!! Just NOPE...

It's made in house and is the right amount of sweet. We all had our fill! On top of it all our server was so kind and welcoming and friendly! She made sure our sweet tea was always filled. The place itself is spacious. The outdoor space looked like it could be a lot of fun in the evening.

I ordered a Philly Cheese steak sandwich, fries & fried jalapeños (because I had never heard of them) the fried jalapeños were way way too salty, the meat on the cheese steak had no flavor, no seasoning at all, it was cold & the the texture was off putting. The fries were also too crispy for me but I will own that one. I didn't specify to make them softer. And my meal alone... almost $30 bucks!!! The waitress took too long to take our drink order & then seemed rushy to get our order. She seemed more concerned with working the customers at the bar. She wasn't rude, just inattentive.

Catfish was a the star - light and crisp and hot from fryer to the table - seasoned lightly and fresh tender fillets. It's nice to be able to choose the number of fillets you'd like adjusting for appetite or diners to share with. Pulled pork was moist and better than I would have expected at a non bbq restaurant, let alone one at a state park. More customers poured in after us - so the later you are to lunch, the more patient you'll want to be. On a Wednesday this might be the only restaurant in the area - I think we'd be looking as far back as Harrisburg for something else that was open.
