Not a ton of dining options in this area but feel like we did well finding this place! Really tasty pulled pork sandwiches, hush puppies & potato salad! read more

I ordered a to go order by phone. The person who took the order said it would be ready in 10-15 minutes. When I got there I paid. Then I asked how much longer for my order, ( I asked 20 minutes after I ordered it) to find it had never been put in. They hadn't even started. I got my money back and had them cancel the order. Who doesn't do a phone order when it comes in? I would recommend better help. This was a first for me, but a bad experience. I am just thankful I got my money back. That's why 1 star. read more

Had the Frito Stacker. Very good. Got two meals out of it, so, cheaper than fast food. read more

Haymaker BBQ Restaurant - Frito Stacker, take out. - Barbeque Near Me - Harrogate, Tennessee

Eh. Good not great. The burnt ends and hush puppies were good. But when you don't make the Mac and cheese or the potato salad in house - you lose definite points. A restaurant's sole purpose is to serve good food. I can open a can of Mac and cheese at home. read more

I have been coming to haymakers for years when I ref a game at LMU. I always used to look forward to going. I went yesterday and terribly disappointed that they no longer have combo meals that include 2, 3 or 4 different types of meat. You can only order a meal with one meat. for those of ut dine alone, they should make combo meat orders!!! read more

This restaurant used to be really good but I went there today and the food was terrible the fries were cold the catfish was very small and the macaroni and cheese look like some sort of orange cheese dip the catfish wasn't good it's kind of dry very thin very tiny I paid $15 for this meal it was not worth it I do not recommend read more

1st time we have ever been here, Love the Brisket and fried okra. Their half rack of ribs was so big. Our new favorite BBQ joint.

I understand prices went up but the amount, quality and quantity went down. To go orders are second rate

So we attended a LMU Sport camp. We were cold and tired. First timers and this place hit the spot. 2 pork sandwiches, fried okra, sweet potato fries. One potato stacker. Everything was good and made some cold people warm. read more

I used to come to Haymakers a lot but hadn't been in a few months. I got the pulled pork sandwich with their galley fries (potatoes cut width-wise, fried, and sprinkled with seasoning). It was good, and their food is usually consistent. Make sure to check out their different selection of homemade BBQ sauces. If you plan on being a frequent visitor, get one of their loyalty cards - 10 punches on the card and your 11th meal is free. There aren't that many restaurant choices in Harrogate, but Haymakers is definitely one of the best. read more

Haymaker BBQ Restaurant - The Kickin' Korean pulled pork sandwich with Sriracha coleslaw. Served with a side of baked corn casserole. - Barbeque Near Me - Harrogate, Tennessee

Just your average BBQ joint. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 3 because the meat wasn't greasy. We also had friend okra and that also wasn't overly wet or greasy. The staff seems to be a little short. She wasn't unkind but not overly friendly. This place just isn't anything to write home about. read more

Drove all the way to TN to eat at Haymaker BBQ from Charlotte, NC. Needless to say it did not disappoint! I will be back!! The brisket was good and the Mac n cheese was out of this world! Don't forget to get you some friend pickles!! read more

From the moment you walk in the door is reeks of GREASE... grease that has been used over and over for years! The aroma that will follow you all day until you shower:( that was enough to turn around and walk out. read more

A lot has changed.. Pulled pork is not pulled pork. Has been chopped up to tiny pieces. A lot of items removed from menu that were a lot of favs. Fries were cold. I guess new management made some new changes. Won't be going back until things change. read more

Excellent food and service. Depending on the day, you may have to wait to order due to the popularity of this location. So far, I have had the shredded pork and also the catfish. The catfish and hush puppies are hands down the best items on the menu. This is my typically go to when I am looking for BBQ. If you haven't tried this place, go there soon. read more

Being new to town, I was excited to try Haymaker's. Unfortunately, when I entered the restaurant today, I realized none of the staff was wearing masks. I know Tennessee does not require face coverings, but I had hoped the business would do it. My preference is to dine in a restaurant that follows Covid-19 protocol (masks, distancing, extra cleaning) - I did not view that occurring here so I decided to just go home. I'm sure the food is delicious, I just wish I could've felt more comfortable eating there. read more

Do not order the pulled chicken-it's beyond dry! Adding bbq sauce is not the answer either. Needs to be cooked moister. The beans were so salty I could not eat them. The coleslaw was good. The Texas toast was good. Not a place I'll return to. read more

Still a four star place but I have noticed that a half lunch stacker and a full stacker are about the same size especially if takeout. Usually they are nice and offer me the lunch special any time of the day. I have grown to love the heavys food truck and their ribs if you can catch them. I tried the ribs here at haymakers and they were expensive and nothing to write home about. read more

First timers, we tried the catfish , pulled pork sandwich all was yummy. Hush puppies were delish. Place started to get real busy, they had tons of pick up orders. read more

This place COULD be busy all day and year long. Food is overpriced and not even hot at times. Walked in one day waited in Line to find out they were out of everything but brisket. Management was too sorry to at least put a sign up stating so read more

I try to stop at local BBQ joint anytime I hit the road and anywhere I go. We were visiting in Cumberland Gap in Tennessee, and wanted to try Haymarket, mostly because it's pretty much the only place I town. Well first it looks like they roll and store the sidewalks pretty early in Harrogate. This place closes at 8:00. So we showed up at around 7:00. Our first disappointment : they were out of brisket. So we all had pulled pork sandwiches. The meat was tender, but lackrd much taste. It looked and felt more like it was boiled rather than bar-b-cued. That was partially remedied with the help of a good choice of sauces, from mild to nicely spicy. The sandwiches were served on a plain sesame hamburger bun, with fries. Pretty basic, no extravagance here. There is a choice of sodas and ice teas, but no beer. If you are dying for a bbq sandwich, yeah, ok. But I wouldn't drive out of my way. read more

Awesome sauce. Highly recommend. I'm from out of town working at ARH and the RNs made me a list of places to eat, and Haymakers Farm was on there. They said the slaw, beans and Catfish were amazing and it sure was. I also had the hush puppies, corn casserole and onion rings. Yummmmy! Definitely made my tummy smile. read more

So far I have waited 40 minutes for a 3 sandwich carryout order. Based on that, 1 star.

Was in the area for work and decided to stop by. I was blown away! I had the Kickin Korean sandwich with a side of potato salad. The entire meal was great! Tried some of their house sauces on my Pork and as a Texan, I can be very picky when it comes to my BBQ, I was very impressed to say the least. The service was top notch. Some of the friendliest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. This will be a must stop when I'm in Harrogate! I suggest anybody else do the same! read more

I absolutely love this place. I've always enjoyed any food that I've ever ordered from them. Their staff is just about the friendliest I've ever encountered. It absolutely has the "local" eatery feel to it. If you like BBQ you won't be disappointed and their catfish is out of this world! read more

If you're looking for some good BBQ, this is the spot! Been here twice on vacation and it's a great meal at a great price. It's a little hard to find but just go behind the Arby's and you can't miss it. I had the Haymaker and it is BBQ pork with Cole slaw on top. Delish! They also have home made BBQ sauces. I prefer the Haymaker Extra Spicy cause it has just enough heat to satisfy that craving. read more

It was just ok, read the reviews and they were all good, as my brother and I were passing through town, I was really excited about BBQ. They were out of fried okra but was told the Mac and cheese was awesome. I ordered the pulled chicken sandwich and my brother pulled pork sandwich, my chicken was ehhhh, he said is pork was good. read more

Stopped while traveling & can't wait to come thru to eat here again. We both had brisket sweet potato fries beans & texas toast for $22-total both meals. Brisket was so tender & good size portion. Several bbq sauces to choose from.Sweet potato fries best ever!!! Sure wish I knew their secret on the fries. Beans tasty & ordered Texas toast with no garlic -good. We were there on Monday & they were doing brisk business. Service quick & friendly. Order @ counter & they bring food to you. Can't wait to try other items like Potato Stacker which has fried potatoes layered with pulled pork,sauce & cheese. Give them a try! read more

We recently visited Haymaker BBQ twice during our trip to Cumberland Gap. What a great find! Best bbq I ever had. Huge portions of tender meat and scrumptious sauces to choose from. Nice selection of sides as well but the real focus here are the amazing and delicious meat choices. Prices are very reasonable as well. Nice little no frills dining room. We will definitely return! read more

Excellent food. Best hush puppies I've had in ages. Loved the catfish and fried okra. Good selection of sauces.

We love this place! The barbecue is amazing!! We discovered it a few years ago and we just planned a leg of our current trip so that we could have lunch there again. read more

The food was good. The wait time was horrible. From the time I ordered until I received my food it was over 40 minutes. I knew it would be bad when the register worker said "I ain't gonna lie...it will be a while". And she was right. I got a combo platter of pork and beef. The beef was very good but super fatty. Sides were average of beans and slaw. read more

Haymaker BBQ Restaurant - Barbeque Near Me - Harrogate, Tennessee

The food was good. Would have liked the potato salad and slaw to be homemade. Great service and reasonably priced.

I've ate BBQ all over the country and I must say this is one of the better ones food is really good service is friendly and efficient I highly recommend this restaurant next time you are close to Harrogate. read more

This is my favorite BBQ spot in the Tri-State area! It is actual TN BBQ and I love it. The price is also good for what your get, the brisket is my jam. Try the cattleman's sauce. the inside isn't much to write home about, and some of the sides like mac n cheese are kind of basic. (So they could step up their game there) but other than that it's great and they are always friendly. read more

Out of Brisket right now due to COVID 19. Hubby had the catfish and it was great. I had the pulled pork and it was tender and juicy. We were just passing through and left happy we found this place! read more

All I can say is get out of the Hardee's drive- thru and walk into this place! The food is delicious, the tea is southern sweet and the service is excellent. I tried the pulled pork sandwich and fried okra during my first visit and for my second visit...I had the exact same thing! Indoor and outdoor seating available. Get out of your car and enjoy a really good meal! read more

Very good BBQ! I had the brisket, my husband the pulled pork both were tasty! The fries were nothing to write home about but fine. The onion rings were delicious!! You can't really see the building from 25E so look for the sign, or the Hardees read more

Food (what they had available) was good-however, on Sunday at 1:30 p.m. they were out of catfish, Mac and cheese, hush puppies and even sweet tea. Could have been even more items but these are the ones we asked about. No apology offered - just a blunt - we're out. read more

I go to LMU and I come here a lot. I've never had a bad experience, the food is always great, service is always fast, and the staff is very friendly. This place ranks very high among some of my favorite barbecue. read more
