We were a group of 9 and got seated fairly quickly as half of the place was empty. It was Monday at 1:30pm so it should not have been busy but it seemed quite busy for the time of the day. Service was quick and as soon as we were seated, hush puppies were brought out. These are free and constantly brought out if they were gone. Do not eat too much otherwise will have hard time finishing the actual meal! I got the Quarter BBQ Chicken Plate and the chicken was very delicious! The friest were good too but was not too sure of the coleslaw or the vegetable it came with. The vegetable lacked in taste but otherwise everything was delicious. Nice spot for quick meal. Check is brought to the table but need to pay at the cashier by the entrance. Friendly service but they use plastic utensils. Still, I would recommend this place and therefore five stars.

Great staff. Awesome prices. The hush puppies were king. I got the catfish plate, small. Also, FYI, no outdoor dining so no dogs allowed.

Small whole catfish with fries and slaw

Good food. Friendly efficient staff. Casual dining in relaxed atmosphere. Dine in and carry out available. Handmade hand pies, local honey, and fried pork skins at the counter for sale are popular treats.

Hushpuppies

Greenbrier has been around for SO many years. I remember going as a kid and. Still go today, the area around it has changed so much but they have not changed at all. Which is a great thing, why mess with perfection right? Their hush puppies are to die for. If you don't know what a hushpuppy is... it's basically a delicious cornmeal batter similar to cornbread that has been deep fried to a delicious golden brown. Oh can eat them plain, dip them in ketchup (when I was younger that was my go too), dip in Alabama White BBQ sauce, or my favorite Tartar sauce. You get a basket as soon as you sit down to enjoy as an appetizer while your food is being prepared. My favorite entree is the catfish filet with a baked potato or a sweet potato, it also comes with slaw (cabbage slaw made with a sugar/vinegar, no Mayo). You can also have fried but I like the potatoes better. My second favorite is the Pulled Pork BBQ platter, the pork is juicy and extremely tender and goes great with their vinegar bbq sauce on the table (not the white sauce this is a red sauce) once you have filled your stomach up with hushpuppies and your entree, take I think 50cents to the back left of the restaurant and fix you a soft serve cone or dish. It's a perfect dessert to close out the meal for super cheap. Overall inside is the exact same as it was probably 30 years ago, it's clean, the wait staff is very attentive and it's locally owned and operated. Try it out if you are nearby, you won't regret it.

Hushpuppies to go

It's probably been 10+ years since I last visited Greenbrier, but I took a trip out there on Monday to give it another try. I called ahead of time to place my order since I'd be in a hurry to make it back to work on time. The gentleman on the other end of the line was pleasant. I was able to place my order easily. He told me it'd be ready in 5 minutes, which surprised me - very short timeframe for carryout. I asked if they'd be willing to wait 15 minutes before putting my order in and he agreed. The restaurant is in a pretty rural location and is easy to miss, but it's been around for forever. That shows a little bit in the decor and appearance of the interior especially. My food was ready when I arrived. The man at the register was polite when I checked out, and my meal was boxed nicely. I appreciated that they added a couple of ketchup packets without me having to ask; I realized I forgot when I was more than halfway back and I was sad because I love my hush puppies dipped in a little ketchup (don't knock it till you try it, lol). Luckily for me, that was provided! The food is just alright; I'd say it's middle of the road bbq for the Huntsville area. I had a small pulled pork plate with fries. It also came with slaw and hush puppies. The tea I got to drink was absolutely ENORMOUS - so large it hardly fit in my cup holder, lol. Good value there. The small pork plate was plenty for me. The pork had a decent smoke flavor and texture, but was dry. Unfortunately, I didn't much care for the sauce that came with my meal; it was very thin, vinegar based sauce. I did like the kick to it, but I much prefer sweet, thick sauce. The fries were mushy and a little undersalted even when I ate a few before pulling away from the restaurant. I'm not really a coleslaw fan personally so I only tried a bite; it was decent but I prefer mayo-based coleslaw if I'm going to eat it at all. The highlight was, as I remembered from my last visit long ago, the hush puppies. I won't agree that they're the best hush puppies ever, but they ARE quite good. Cooked fresh, hot and crispy, with just enough oil for a little bit to seep out on your fingers, they're yummy. Again, give them a try with a lil ketchup! Just saying.

Mmmmm. Complimentary hush puppies

See all

Great service there and the food was hot with the exception of the hush puppies. That's a real shame because theirs are the best when fresh.

The flies on the patio are beyond nasty. When I walked into the restaurant, people were complaining…read moreabout the flies inside. That was nothing to the patio. But I came to see the band, food was really just a bonus. The food itself was really good - I had fried green tomatoes with pulled pork. The fried green tomatoes were fresh and crisp. The pork, however was room temperature. Honestly, if I had known about the flies, I doubt that I would have even considered eating tepid pork. There was a slight drizzle of sauce but I had to go back up and request sauce. Other reviews mentioned the saltiness of the dish. If anything, it was under seasoned. I bought my grandson a chicken finger kids meal and subbed mac and cheese for the fries. The meal came with three large house made tenders. They would have been enough for me (unfortunately the fly infestation made leftovers unthinkable.) Like the tomatoes, the tenders came sans sauce necessitating another trip to the counter. He devoured the mac and cheese. It was a little soupy and had kind of congealed sauce around the edges before it was even served. I'd order it for him again but not for me. Oh, and ask for a spoon before you leave the counter. The fork that came with was for all intents and purposes useless. (Yes, another trip to the counter). The patio is a great venue. Grab a beer, grab a seat and enjoy the band. As for food? Maybe wait until winter when the flies are gone.

June 2025: I thought they had sold out last month but…read more Still open. Have to visit th neighborhood BBQ & support them. I enjoy the outside covered patio the east side. Plenty of off street parking. They have Brisquit & of course pulled pork .
