It won't matter what you order, the food will be superbly delicious. The Service was super fast and super friendly. I mentioned it was my first visit and the cashier came around and explained the whole menu. The ambience is very respectful to our armed forces. Very humbling to be sitting amongst pictures of individual stories of heroes. They offer the Pepsi product and specialty sodas for drinks. I also bought a souvenir cup, which added two dollars to my tab, but is donated directly to tunnels to Towers charity which I gladly support for our vets. Will definitely be coming back again. read more

This is my first time here and was impressed by how welcoming the staff was here. They immediately greeted us and took our order. We got the ribs, mac and cheese, cornbread and the meat sampler. We sat at a booth which had different sauces - loved the Memphis BBQ sauce. We had one of the staff check on us a few times. She was super nice! Would love to come back here to eat the other menu items. read more

The food was excellent the service was great everyone was very helpful bought a cup $2 went to T2T

Stopped in for a quick bite on my way through PA. The staff is super nice and welcoming here and enjoyed the food overall. I got a 2 meat combo with jalapeno cheese sausage and brisket which comes with cornbread, along with a side of mac and cheese. Tried the pulled pork, turkey and fries that my husband ordered and they were all solid too. Love the huge variety of bbq sauce - 6 different ones at the table and a white Alabama bbq that they gave with our order. Would stop back if I am in the area or at another location. They play and stand up for the national anthem at noon everyday and honor our veterans. They do have a veterans discount. read more

Mission BBQ - 2 meat combo (jalapeno cheese sausage/brisket) with cornbread and side of mac and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Whitehall, Pennsylvania

Mission is my favorite chain BBQ restaurant. Great food, great patriotic decor, and they always help me find just what I'm craving on the menu. read more

When me and my family walked in, it looked really patriotic, all kinds of medals, rank patches, and pictures of veterans all over the walls. On the table we sat at, there was different federal/military badges inside the table. The service up front was fast and direct, and it took about 1-2minutes to order for us 4, (excluding the time it took to decide what to get). Now, I got a pulled chicken sandwich with some fries, it tasted good by itself, but if you put the apple cider vinegar on the fries and try any one of the six sauces at the tables on your meat, I assure you that it'll really improve the taste. Some meals, like a brisket, come with a small side of whatever you pick and a block of cornbread. 10/10 read more

My friend and I stopped here today for lunch for our first time. It won't be our last. My friend ordered a pulled pork sandwich, baked beans, and fresh cut fries. I ordered the same sides with brisket. The service was excellent - friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. Having six different sauces to sample at our table was terrific. Sweet tea cannot be beat. The restaurant was clean and bright and welcoming. Employees treated us to some seasoned fries and brownies. Debi, Ramya and Taylor, and everyone else could not have been nicer. Stop reading this review and treat yourself by going to this Mission BBQ today! You'll be delighted and satisfied! read more

Absolutely wonderful service and great food! My server Aneri was so attentive, always checking in, getting whatever I needed at a fast pace, and cleaning up around other tables I noticed too! I will definitely be returning to this location! read more

very great service, seemed more like friends than servers, food was amazing, plenty of options to eat from, good drink selection, free refills, good atmosphere read more

Had a lunch catered by Mission in KOP and they did an amazing job. EVERYTHING was PERFECT!!!

It was nice to come back after few years. Salmon and baked beans were good. Next time we'll be sure to ask for fresh lemon. Fries were overcooked so they gave fresh order of fries, which was mostly better. Cornbread and peach cobbler were okay. Employees were so helpful and nice. The smells, sights and sounds all work together to create an all-American BBQ experience. read more

logan is the best! Please support this place! What an amazing mission and the kindest people work here

I really like Mission BBQ. THE SERVICE IS PRETTY GOOD. THE FOOD IS PHENOMENAL! DEFINITELY GET THE TRI-TIPS WHEN THEY HAVE THEM. The ambience is pretty good too. I think they spent a lot of money on this place. I think they also catered to veterans which is really great. Just don't talk politics in a place like this. You never know what type of person you're gonna run into. read more

Stopped in for a late dinner, was craving some meat. Ordered carry out. Pulled chicken sandwich was ok, not the best. Kind of dry. And the pulled pork sandwich traditional, had a very weird smell to it. And it wasn't great, I spit it out. I couldn't eat it. It was very off then other times I had it. I grabbed two side cups of smoky mountain sauce, you can tell it's been in that cup for a bit. It looked like a Jell-O shot, was not saucy anymore. It was thick and it had a jiggle. Sauce should not have a jiggle like Jell-O. Definitely not worth the 18$ I just spent! read more

Mission BBQ is located in front of the Whitehall Mall. One tip before eating here: They do not have Hamburgers like most BBQ restaurants. Menu includes Brisket, Pulled Pork, Chicken, and other meat options. I went with the Brisket and Fries for my side. Meat Market options come with a piece of Cornbread. Keep an eye on for what seasonal sides they are offering. Beverages include Pepsi fountain drinks and various glass bottle beverages. Dining room has a decent amount of seating and is currently open. Interior design is heavy on wood grain and decorated with military/police memorabilia. Mission BBQ does not have servers, but they did have some someone walking around checking if you needed anything and keeping the dining area clean. Food was ready in a reasonable amount of time. At the table they provide six different BBQ sauces as the meat is prepared in one style. I was impressed with the Memphis Belle and Smokey Mountain flavors as I'm not usually a sauce person. The Brisket is tasty enough to eat without sauce. My fries looked overdone, but were actually perfectly done and tasty. Mission BBQ does something...unusual at Noon every day: They play the National Anthem which I was not expecting. Overall, the prices are reasonable and the food is good, so I will be returning. read more

First time here and definitely will not be my last. Super friendly staff who understand customer service. Came in with my son and we ate a lot and everything was fantastic. My new favorite bbq place by far! read more

Terrific place with great atmosphere, clean, spacious and moderate noise. Staff wonderful and friendly, our first time here and at Noon, we were pleasantly taken aback as the whole restaurant stood as the National Anthem played - amazing recognition of our service men and women. Great sides. Would like to come back and try them all - Definitely worth trying if you're in the mood for BBQ. read more

This used to be my favorite lunch spot as I work in the area. The last couple of weeks, The food been not good at all. No flavor. The chicken is so rubbery, fatty and looks like it was boiled in water. The staff is very friendly though excellent customer service but the food lately is not what used to be, I don't know if they change the cook or something. I will try it again in future. read more

Upbeat positive fast food BBQ. This is a place that has been getting better since I first went there. Six sauces at each table to try on the flavorful meat. Collard greens were lacking flavor. Service was great, with an attendant in the dining area making sure everything was right. Supports veterans and is decorated with that theme. read more

My daughter and I met for a quick dinner at Mission BBQ. Neither of us had ever been. The young man at the counter, Jeremiah, was fantastic. He explained the menu/options (sandwich, XL, and XXL meals). He was pleasant and patient. Within 5 minutes, we were called to pick up our food. They included a little strawberry shortcake because we had never been to their restaurant. I got a pulled pork sandwich with a side baked beans (xl) and my daughter got the brisket sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese(xl). A drink was included with out XL meals. The food was great and the variety of bbq sauces were good as well. Highly recommend! read more

My mom introduced me to this spot when she came to visit me. She told me the owner was a veteran and had given her vouchers for free sandwiches for my brother and I, who is also a veteran. So I finally made the trip North to see my mom and she insisted we have lunch here. I must say that I was definitely impressed with the setup and all the military memorabilia. I had the wet brisket and potato salad which was very tasty. Good hospitality, great service and tasty food. Highly recommended. read more

I'm not a fan of chain restaurants- Mission BBQ is the exception to that rule! Food is always tasty and consistent with a well staffed and friendly team. read more

Probably about as good of an experience as you can expect to get from a Chain-B-Q establishment and sure as hell better than going to the swill salt lick called Dickey's. Service: Not really applicable here because it's not a formal sit down place. We went up to the register and placed our order and before we could even get our drinks my name was called and the food was ready. It's ironic that there was a Boston Market on this spot prior because that's pretty much the set up here. Place your order at the register, another employee in the background takes care of rendering the food and an expeditor type employee plates the food and calls your name to come and n' git it. No real personality from anyone although I did find out later that the cashier forgot to ask us if we were first timers (we were) because if you are they are supposed to go over the schtick of explaining the full menu. Food: Pulled Pork and Pulled Chicken sandwich with mac and cheese. Working in reverse, I'm not a fan of the mac and cheese. Not enough of a cheesy flavor/texture and way too oily. It reminded me of what happens when you try to make homemade mac and cheese and then reheat it the next day in the microwave. The pulled pork had good flavor but was served lukewarm to cool. The chicken surprisingly had a good seasoning on it and was served at the perfect temperature to eat. The best part easily is the holder on each table with the six different sauces. Pretty hard to not find one that you'll like. Me, I'm a Bay-B-Que guy. Great balanced flavor without being overbearing. Store: Two of the tables we tried to sit at were really sticky, the drink area had a fair amount of gnats/flies around and two of the six sauces at the table we eventually chose were more or less empty. We don't have a realistic option for "authentic" BBQ in the area (there are places that render it but I wouldn't call any of it authentic or to a degree even good) but if you're in the mood for it this place is alright. Nothing was bad but nothing stood out either. FWIW, we'll be back in the future to try a few other menu options that looked good like the salmon, shrimp and sausage. read more

Was looking for a restaurant with some local flair since I'm in town for just the day. I live bbq, so the wife and I gave this place a try. It has a military vibe. There is an old army vehicle out front that has been converted to a bbq on wheels kitchen thing. We ordered a two meat combo, pulled pork and brisket. There is a variety of sauces on the table, so you can customize it to your liking. There is an ice bin by the register, so instead of the same old fountain sodas, you can get a grape nehi, old style root beer, or black cherry soda. The food is good, try the coke slaw and green beans with bacon. The people here are very pleasant. Def worth a trip!! read more

Food is good but pricey. I thought the portions would have been like Roadhouse. I was wrong. I ordered brisket meal with Mac and cheese, coleslaw. The meals are only enough for one person. Service was good on my visit. read more

Smoked meats, baked beans, and cornbread all were really good. Service was good. Place is clean with cool military inspired decor.

This is the only restaurant that not only caused me to get sick, but my friend as well. I had the brisket sandwich which was actually a bit tasty, however within about 20 minutes caused me to be very sick. The filthy men's room didn't help matters much. My friend had the special rib-eye steak which caused him to have abdominal distress for a few hours after. As we were in the area just to see a ballgame, there's no chance that we'll make the mistake again. I highly recommend that you pass this place by as well. read more

Fantastic food and the staff was very cheerful and helpful! I would totally recommend this BBQ food!

The staff is sooo friendly and great about my gluten allergy (a manager will personally bring me my food - which is common with GF customers). Not usually one to order sea food from a non-seafood restaurant, but I'm obsessed with their shrimp black plate special. read more

Great food at a good price. Amazing customer service. Can't recommend this place enough. This review is from my first time and I'll be back.

Very tasty. Prices are okay. There are many veterans Good for kids. I wish they had beef ribs read more

I've been to a Mission BBQ once before, and enjoyed brisket on that trip. I saw this one today while looking for lunch on the way to the airport, and wanted to visit again. This time I went w/ smoked turkey, fresh cut fries & green beans for sides. The food was great, the theme is even better. "Mission BBQ Salutes American Heroes" -- absolutely love it. read more

The food was good and the service was amazing. I also love the way they support our veterans

Mission BBQ is really a great place for barbecue dishes, of course and just a great hearty meal. The reason I gave it three stars is that it does not confirm veterans. I myself as a veteran came in and was not asked for proof of being a veteran or serving in the United States Armed Forces so places that claim to be veteran-centric/friendly, but also cater to stolen glory is not an establishment that I could support but appreciate the effort. Other than that great food and ambience. Will usually choose this place over others if I know it's nearby. read more

Came here during COVID19 for take out. Great! A great selection of sauces. Get the brisket, pulled pork and pulled chicken!
