    This little gem is hiding a few miles from lake Michigan. Just east of the Phoenix Rd rush! When you arrive you will find cookers smoking and the smell is amazing. The owner will greet you with a smile and make sure you know what your getting. With exceptional knowledge of a barbecue this is worth the drive. Slow cooked ribs and pork with a homemade BBQ sauce that is out of this world. You will not leave hungry when you come here for sure. There are sides and selections for everyone. I would recommend coming to those wonderful hidden gem in south Haven.

    While staying at the Jellystone Campground down the road, we bought food from here TWICE! It was absolutely delicious- we had rib tips, chicken and pulled pork sandwiches. Met Larry and one of his daughters- they were quick with service, extremely courteous. This is some of the best smoked BBQ I have had- Larry has 30 years of experience and it shows. Cash only, but there is an ATM across the street at the convenience store.

    Overall a very good choice for bbq. Sauce is amazing. Had the rib tips and they were delicious. Hard working man running the place too. Only down side is I wish there was Brisket on the Menu. Can't have bbq without brisket. It's just pork and chicken. But all in all, great bbq choice in the area.

    Was excited to see this Barbecue food truck close by the highway and the reviews were good. I wanted to pick up something quick but didn't want a Fast Food Drive-Thru. This place is cash only so make sure that you have that. I had to go to the ATM and come back. I received fast friendly service. For $12 I got a rib tip dinner with a side of baked beans and potato salad. Nice portions for the price. The meat was seasoned well and the sauce was good. Unfortunately, my meat was tough. I maybe had 2 tender pieces out of the whole dinner. I really wish that wasn't the case as the customer service was very good. I'm hoping that today was an off day. I'd give this place another chance.

    The best BBQ in South Haven area. Been stopping here for several years.

    Service was slow. But they were very busy. Food was good. And the prices were fair. Kind of has a funky country decor. Cute place.

    Fruit Street Kitchen - Fried catfish filet

    Monique and Ricco were such a delight to meet; really down-to-earth, friendly, helpful people who…read morelove to cook and serve superb food. We were riding on the Van Buren Trail and wanted to avoid the crowds in South Haven. We spotted this food truck from the trail, read some nice reviews and decided to give it a whirl. Best decision we made. Fruit Street Kitchen serves up some of the tastiest food in South Haven at a trainable price point. It is a must-stop if you are in the area. We were greeted by Monique who was so helpful in narrowing down our choices. Truly, everything on the menu looked amazing. We choose the fried catfish, pork tip with BBQ sauce and sides of baked beans, greens and coleslaw. Each dish was cooked to perfections and exploded with flavor. Our catfish was crispy, tender and well seasoned; not the least bit greasy. The pork rib tips had amazing BBQ flavor without being overpowered by the sauce. It is possible, however, that our sides were the stars of the meal. We love greens and these greens, made with smoked Turkey, had so much flavor without being salty. Similarly, the baked beans were excellent and the coleslaw was cold, crispy and tangy. Though we were full, we couldn't leave without dessert. The banana pudding would have been our first choice, but they were out. So we tried the beautiful-looking pineapple cake. It was moist, fruity and not too sweet. The truck is next to a quiet park and there are a couple picnic tables outside if you wish to stay. The environment is quite comfortable. Monique and Ricco serve up their prized family recipes with the attention to detail that is the hallmark of passionate foodies. We wish them wild success.

    Fantastic customer experience! A very fun vibrant business with deep ties to the community!read more
