3 meat sampler XL

I am from out of town and the staff was knowledgeable and helpful. I had the 3 meat plate with ham, pulled pork, and brisket (you can choose lean or "wet" on the brisket, I had the wet). They had staff wandering the dining room and even gifted me a peach cobbler on the house. The Georgia and North Carolina vinegar were my favorite sauces out of the 8 I had to choose from.

2 meat combo (jalapeno cheese sausage/brisket) with cornbread and side of mac and cheese

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.

Some miscellaneous badges as shown in the previous picture, showing a small preview of the decoration in the restaurant

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

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.

Outstanding service, Outstanding BBQ and Outstanding pride for Military & First Responders!!!!! I'm visiting Allentown with my son for the Monster Jam Show tomorrow and we came by out of curiosity. It was sooooooo good! Worth it! Great food and even better staff!!

2 Meat Market Sampler (2 Meat) Turkey & Brisket Side of Collard Greens
John S.

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.

A place that honors our service men and women

So everyone, my husband heard about this place called SMP Mini Mart that sells Philly cheesesteaks,…read moreso of course we had to check it out! We ordered the Garlic Pepperoni Pizza Steak and the "Didn't Suck" cheesesteak, and let me tell you--they definitely lived up to the hype. Both sandwiches were packed with flavor, cheesy, and absolutely hit the spot. I won't lie, these sandwiches are definitely shareable...unless you're really hungry! They also offer breakfast sandwiches, homemade cutlets, and hoagies, which means we'll definitely be making another trip back to try more of their menu. You already know I'll be writing a review on those too, because I'm always happy to help my fellow foodies find some good eats! Have you tried SMP Mini Mart yet? If not, add it to your list!

Stopped to visit the new location right across the street from the mini mart! While I was able to…read morewalk right up and order, still takes a few minutes for the sandwich to come out. They give you a beeper that goes off when it's ready! Another great steak sandwich! Loaded with meat, served in their Styrofoam container rather that rapping in paper! The sauce I ordered on the side only lasted thru half the sandwich - guess next time I will order two? Actually their was ketchup on my table so I used that on the 2nd half. Sometimes that what I crave, so this time I got both sauce on one half and ketchup on the other. Left full!

1st off - I am a fan of Jersey Mike's! I used to be a bigger fan!…read more I was disappointed this week. I got a Roast Beef/American cheese sub, Mike's way. When I realized I would have to choke it down; it was dry as a bone. I had to open it up to look at the roast beef. For years it was always pink or light red. The way I like it. The roast beef in my sandwich was purely brown. I wondered what happened and here is what the General Manager of Jersey Mike's had to say: Sorry you were not happy with your sub. We used to bake the roast beef in the store, but not anymore. It comes in pre-cooked and it's never red/pink these days. JERSEY MIKE'S FRANCHISE WAS RECENTLY SOLD! i knew that happe ned a few months ago but was not expecting their cost cutting would include selling dry, choke inducing roast beef. I'm sure future future surprises await me. Not good ones! I was emailed quickly by the General Manager of my store emailed me to apologize as mt negative review crossed his desk. The Offer: 15% off my next sub. I emailed back saying the 15% discount is offensive and unacceptable. I told him to keep the 15%. No more roast beef subs at Jersey Mike's for me!

They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and despite the restaurant being packed, the two of them managed the entire floor flawlessly. Every table was attended to, service was smooth, and they kept the place spotless. They are definitely a fantastic team! A special shoutout to Ashon, who made the best coffee, and to Chef Kourtney, who personally came out to check on us. She even surprised us with a heavenly crème brûlée French toast with cream and guava syrup -- truly something else! That dish alone is worth the visit. The hospitality here was incredible. We felt genuinely cared for and welcomed, and the food was outstanding. We took photos of our dishes, but trust me... the pictures don't do them justice. If you're thinking about visiting this place, don't think too hard -- just go! You won't regret it.
