Great food, wonderful staff casual atmosphere a portion of their proceeds. Go to help vets one of the better barbecue places in Connecticut.

Came here for a quick bday lunch as with a free treat We ordered the 3 meat combo with brisket, pulled pork and chicken, a side of French fries, Mac and cheese and cornbread This time it was just okay. The chicken was lukewarm warm, overly seasoned with dry corn bread. The Mac and cheese was really good. The cheesecake was a custard type cheesecake, with little crust. Never ordering fries again The sauces are really good, as well as their dry rub seasoning. read more

Dog food. Insanely over salty. Liquified sides. Absolutely disgusting. Green beans were like baby food. Ribs were overcooked and felt like it was eating a block of salt. read more

Came here noon on a Tuesday, nice and quiet but picked up a little as we were leaving. Staff was very polite and helpful. They saw that my husbands hands were full with our toddler so they helped bring the tray to our table. The bbq is pretty solid, had the brisket, pulled pork and ribs. My favorite was the variety of bbq sauces. And bottle were clean! No greasy feel! My only complaint is the they make everything with black marker on dark blue tape - a little hard to read. read more

This is why you can't listen to stuff off the internet. Went here and ordered the pulled chicken it had way too much seasoning on it. The Mac n cheese was dry no good. The baked beans were smoked but just ok and the corn bread was nasty I will not even come back nor should you ! read more

We were in the area for some shopping and needed a place for lunch and found this on Yelp. Holy awesome bbq Batman! What a pleasant surprise this was - Noah greeted us at the counter and walked us through the menu and made recommendations. We got the meat sampler (jalapeño cheddar sausage, brisket and pulled pork) and made it an XXL with mac & cheese and cole slaw, and got an order of the smoked meatloaf. Everything was soooo good - the brisket has this awesome crust that has such good flavor from whatever they do when they're smoking it. Don't let the fact that this is a chain turn you off. While we were eating Noah came out and gave us a tray of brownies for being first time customers- what a lovely touch to an already amazing visit! We live kind of far from here but we're already planning another trip back! read more

Since I was looking for something different, I stopped in here for lunch. I'm so glad I did. As I stepped up to the counter, I was welcomed. I explained it was my first time and the young lady came around the counter to my side and walked me through the various sections of the menu boards. There is military memorabilia from all branches all over the walls. I ordered a pulled chicken sandwich with fries and a soft drink. I enjoyed every bite. read more

This place has a really nice cafeteria vibe, but the food is way better than what you get at school! The first time I visited, I felt right at home. I decided to order a little bit of everything to sample, and it just so happened to be my service dog Gucci's birthday! We enjoyed our meal outside since the weather was perfect. The ribs, pulled pork, corn bread, and brisket were absolutely delicious! Gucci loved the food too! The manager even came by and surprised us with a complimentary brownie, which was such a sweet touch! The atmosphere and service here are definitely worth experiencing. I wholeheartedly recommend this spot for lunch or dinne. It's fantastic! read more

I wanna say a few things about my visit at mission barbecue. First off I want to talk about tanner he was the man at the register. He treated me like family made sure I knew everything I was getting. He even gave me great advice. The food and ambience was very solid 8.5/10. But the service jumped it up to 10/10. I will be but very soon to try more! read more

I was craving some Mac and cheese and wanted to come here after my sister recommended it for a good BBQ spot. The parking lot here is a little hectic at the stop signs at the exit but at least it's a big lot with plenty of places to park. We took our order at the register and they called our name when our order was ready. We tried the 3 meats combo with brisket, jalapeño and cheese sausage, and pulled pork; wings, ribs, cheesy potatoes, collard greens, and of course their Mac and cheese, with their summer time lemonade, and complimentary pieces of cornbread. The brisket was juicy and tender. I wish we would have gotten the bigger portion of this. The sausage was good, tasted even better when I warmed it up in my air fryer. I appreciate that the chicken wings were not dry. The ribs fell right off them bone, the one piece I tried was a little fatty. I'm not a big pork fan, so I skipped the shredded beef. I like that the collard greens weren't bitter, but I like Hindsight's better. I wish it had a cheese pull but at least I like that the Mac and cheese was crispy on top but also liked hindsight's better. The lemonade had a nice clean taste to it, It wasn't too sweet. I wouldn't mind if it was tangier but still was great. I like how there are variety of BBQ sauces ready on each table for our convenience. I like that this place fundraises for Veterans, local Police, Firefighters, First Responders etc. so I recommend you support and try them out. read more

This is my first time here at this place and I enjoyed it very much. The inside decor is very patpatriotic and all about first responders, law enforcement and fire fighters. I got alot of food for the sake of trying everything I could. I ordered the 3 meat combo with mac and cheese. And 1 order of wings. We also got collard greens and mash potatoes. The ribs fell off the bone beautiful. The wings were juicy and had that great smokey taste to them. The jalapeño cheddar sausages hit the spot lovely. Definitely will try this again. read more

Ameeeee!!!! OMG this place is exquisite for my palate, the ribs are so delicious that when I eat somewhere else I only regret it. I have returned a couple of times and the service has no comparison to any other place, the atmosphere is always clean and pleasant, as well as entertaining and respectful for all the beautiful photos on the walls. A great place for a great meal : This day was my service dog's #5th birthday, and I'm not very lucky that I enjoy it like I do. read more

Stopped in for a bite and I was pleasantly surprised. BBQ isn't my go to, especially in CT. It wasn't too busy for a Sunday after furniture shopping, I got the pulled chicken sandwich with a side of fries and my mom got the wings. The sandwich wasn't dry and each table had its own different sauces to try. So packed with flavor! The fries were super fresh too. The wings were definitely a hit though, the skin wasn't tough and seasoned well! The workers were efficient and the place was clean. read more

I love bbq, especially ribs. Since it was my first time here, I had to get my favorite: half rack, beans, and corn bread. The ribs were so tender that they fell off the bone. I sampled three different sauces. They were all tasty. It was a lot food, so after I ate all my ribs, I only ate half of the beans and took a bite of cornbread. While I was eating, they brought me a sampling of their brownie. As full as I was, there is always room to taste a warm brownie! The workers behind the counter and on the floor were so nice and friendly. If you like slow cooked barbecue, check it out! read more

5 plus stars! My family and I just came from eating dinner there we just happen to be in the area and I knew this restaurant was here so I decided to make it a stop for dinner. Since never being there before they explained to us how to order and we ordered brisket, macaroni and cheese, salmon, fries, turkey, and fries. Oh my goodness!! I'm still in a food coma. The food is absolutely superb. It was ready very quickly made from scratch as I was informed and absolutely delicious. My husband's turkey was something that he's never tasted in his life. It was super moist, incredibly flavorfuland literally sent him through the roof! We've come close to this at another famous bbq spot in CT. I'm not a major foodie, but I like good food. The service was great and the people very nice. The ambiance was a normal noise level, where you could still have a conversation with someone. The restaurant is filled with memorabilia from the different branches of the military and the different EMT police department throughout Connecticut. I'm actually thinking of getting turkey catered from them. That's how good it is. Kudos to your team! read more

The food is amazing! The brisket is the best! Service - fantastic! I used Mission BBQ for two parties over the past two years - one using Southington location for 80 people and yesterday used Orange for a party of 70 people. The process couldn't be easier - they communication by phone and so organized and efficient. They deliver to your site and assist in set-up of the food. Every single person I have dealt with has been wonderful! Everyone at the parties kept asking who did the food! Highly recommend using Mission BBQ for your next gathering or just for dinner! read more

First of all the staff was efficient and friendly. They had up to 3 people taking orders at once. The staff also came around giving you free samples. As we were waiting for the rest of are party, they dropped off an order of fries. This is a order your food, wait for it at the counter and find a seat. The wait was less than a couple of minutes. I ordered a full rack of baby back ribs, corn bread, baked beans, collard greens and fries. Everything was very good. Plenty of meat on the ribs and a nice dry rub. Fries were salty with a kick. Corn Bread was moist and good. They had 6 different sauces at your table and a roll of paper towels. The fountain drinks were self serve, with free refills. Off street parking and right off route 1. read more

This was my first time at Mission BBQ and I decided to try it out after I heard multiple people speaking highly of it. It always caught me eye from the outside - rustic and authentic look despite being a chain. The woman at the register immediately greeted me upon entering and was very friendly, and took my order quickly. I ordered the smoked brisket, pulled pork, Mac and cheese, and a corn muffin. The meal was done about 3 minutes after I placed my order so it is good for a meal on a time crunch. The food was good but fairly dry. I needed to load up barbecue sauce on everything in order to fully enjoy it (besides the Mac and cheese). They had 6 different barbecue sauces at every table and that was my favorite part of the experience. It was fun to experiment with the different flavors and they were all very tasty. Throughout my time there, one of the workers consistently checked up on my table too - very kind people. read more

I have been to Mission BBQ in Florida so I was happy to see it in Orange. Sam greeted us and took our order. She was very friendly. We ordered 2 pulled pork sandwiches NC style and one brisket sandwich along with fries, green beans and Mac n cheese for sides. Servings were generous and we ate everything. They have 6 different BBQ sauces, sweet and hot, my favorite is Tupelo Honey Hot but we also got Memphis Belle. Our take out meals were packaged nicely. We dug into them so quickly I didn't even get pictures. All employees were pleasant and remained busy preparing meals. I love the atmosphere and all the military and service related decor. We were late for the noontime anthem. read more

My boyfriend & I had just come here for the first time today, and it was AMAZING! From the food to the service. The atmosphere was charming. Especially, with it being Independence Day weekend. Instantly, we both were welcomed with a warm greeting and directed to the line to order our food. We waited not long at all, and when the food came out it was actually very fresh, hot, moist & flavorful!!! The restaurant was very clean and had a nice music choice. We both got to enjoy the outdoor patio area and enjoy our lunch under the picnic table with an umbrella to keep us shaded from the sun. It was a great first time experience. One of the servers even brought us a complimentary dessert and let us sample a taste of the fresh beans they make here. It was just so welcoming and friendly and to me, that's what it's all about. We will definitely be back and recommending our family and friends to try them out!!!! read more

Happened upon this on our road trip a cross the country and WOW was it great. From easy ordering to fast service, this is the place. We split a brisket sandwich, baked beans and collard greens and all was wonderful. The chain is dedicated to service members and decorated accordingly. At noon each day, all activities stop to sing the Star Spangled Banner and regardless of your political ilk, it's touching. read more

This is a good place when you want smoked meats. I love the collards and all the different sauces to accompany your meat. Fatty brisket and the jalapeño cheddar sausage are the best! read more

Food was delish! I have been to the Southington location before. This location did not disappoint! Food is prepped right in front of you.I ordered the moist beef brisket b/c I love fat(I know I know that's bad for you) w/ the Mac & cheese. Beef Brisket can be ordered moist (w/ the fat) or lean.It comes w/ a piece of cornbread. My bf ordered the half of chicken (called half a yard bird on menu) w/ the collard greens. We always,always order something different b/c we split our meals.We love to try/have different food. There's 6 different signature bbq/hot sauces. I tried all the flavors. To my surprise, I loved the Smokey mountain sauce. I usually don't like Smokey but it had the right amount of smoke. I guess b/c many places Smokey sauces are too Smokey.My brisket was so tender & yummy. The Mac & cheese was so cheesy & baked to perfection(w/ the edges crispy just how I like it). The chicken was moist. I felt like it needed more flavor but it was still good. The collard greens were ok. I've had way better.Cashier was really friendly & greeted us as soon as we entered!An employee came up to our table( which startled me b/c I'm not used to that). She asked if everything was ok & if we needed anything else. She was really nice! It's a chill vibe in there w/ country music playing. They have plenty of booths & tables. Def will be back! I hope they last @ this location b/c they're right next to Hot Haven chicken! This is a must try ya'll! Def try to hit this spot up! read more

Fantastic BBQ. Nice and smoky. A huge array of sauces for all tastes if sauce is your thing. They use buns instead of white bread. No white onions or pickles. So if you are from Texas, don't expect the accoutrements typical of the South. The staff is trained to be really friendly, sometimes being overly fake. Who cares. As long as they aren't annoyed and sarcastically friendless. Lots of parking. Thumbs up!!! read more

Mission BarBQ: First of I like that this is not just a good place, but one with the mission to honor heroes. They not only hire but also give back to those who served. Just check out the website and you find out more about it. At Mission BarBQ you line up and wait for your turn, grab a menu and make your choice. They got a large enough menu to pick from. And we ordered sausage, brisket, pulled chicken, and baby back ribs, all with fries. They had our order wrong and instead of pulled chicken we got pulled pork, but they fixed it by bringing the chicken to our table. The portions are filling, and the best thing to do is order different items and share. There are sauces you can pick from, and if you like it that much bring a tray home (a new one, not the one on the table). First experience was a full one, I mean good one. read more

First time at mission BBQ and I can not complain! I'm not going to lie, I was a bit hesitant about eating bbq because I'm not much of a fan (don't judge me! ) but the food was actually really good! I got the salmon and Mac and cheese and it was watering! My bf and I agreed that the salmon was one of the best we've had in a while! The manager, Tanner, was also very nice and stopped by to greet us and gave me a welcome treat for stopping in! I would highly recommend stopping by :) read more

I'm a big fan of BBQ. This place is really good, especially for a chain restaurant. They have a full selection of various meats along with many different types of sauces. The staff here are exceedingly friendly and helpful, probably the best I have seen. It's casual as you would expect for this type of establishment. The prices are a bit on the higher side but the food is really good. The pulled pork for example is not fatty like many places are. If you like BBQ, I'd strongly recommend checking this place out. Parking is plentiful. read more

I came in to Missions BBQ (Orange location) this past week and I was very surprised and pleased at how well managed and courteous the team was.
