    Breakfast buffet. Sausage links, eggs with sausage gravy, green beans and pork rib.

    Very clean facility. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Over all the food was just ok for me. The smoke was light on the meats(perfect for me), but honestly I didn't enjoy it. Beans weren't seasoned, eggs were baked and not scrambled (they do offer eggs to order but I didn't know that when I got my plate). My hubby has been here tons of times and loves it, but it's not my jam. Everyone else in the restaurant was really loving their food.

    Great food, I haven't had everything and my next adventure is gonna be the Olive Burger. I've heard it's better than the Nuggets.

    Food is ok but nothing special. Menu is very limited and usually he doesn't have anything you want to order.

    Best Sunday brunch around! The atmosphere is cool, located in the historical downtown district. Service was good, seems to be run by family!

    Dean's BBQ, located in Granger, Indiana, is only about a year old and is already a local favorite!…read moreMy boyfriend and I were in the area in June 2026 and we were enticed by the menu and good reviews on Yelp so we had dinner here. Tl;dr - we loved it and are looking forward to coming back here many more times! So it isn't a large space. But we didn't have to wait for a table. There is also a somewhat open kitchen for the curious diners who enjoy watching chefs at work. There's a printed menu but there are also many chalkboards on the walls around the small space that list the specials. Our service was fast and the place was well-staffed. We stuck to ordering off the regular menu except for our drinks. I was impressed by the prices of the drinks, especially the for mocktails. We also agreed that the prices for the merch were decent, especially the sweatshirt, which was only $35. My boyfriend, who is not a beer drinker, got the Vandermill apple cider ($5), made in Grand Rapids, MI. I got the 3 Floyd's Zombie Dust APA ($7.50), a famous Munster, Indiana brewery that has won a plethora of awards over the years. I got a little tipsy from it, ngl. We were craving different items to eat so my boyfriend got the Dean's Burger with wagyu beef and pork with a side of mac and cheese ($19). It was so juicy and the cheese pull was insane! I love brisket so I had to try theirs so I got the brisket sandwich with fries ($18). The brisket was delicious and the bun was of good quality. I had to add a little more sauce to it though. Also, the homemade ketchup tasted a bit apple butter-y! Crazy delicious! They said it had cloves in it. I tried to eat as slow as I could to make it last and was so sad when I finished my food. It was all soooo good! Overall, our meal cost a bit over $60 after tax and tip. We joined the rewards program and we WILL be back!

    The best ribs and other barbecue special items it's a brisket and chicken are excellentread more
