Nice find! Was looking for a quick bite and found Moogies on my trusty Yelp. I got the BBQ spare ribs and chicken wings with a side of onion rings. The ribs were good but the wings were delicious Restaurant is not fancy but it's clean and the customer service was wonderful. I would definitely come again when in Cookeville, TN. FYI, they have a drive through. read more

Ordered wings. Order came out super fast oddly. Can home. Took a few bites. Bit into raw, flavorless wings that were smothered in sweet baby rays. Baked beans were also flavorless. Wife ordered pull pork sandwich. It too was also flavorless and smothered with sweet baby rays BBQ. This place is not great whatsoever read more

The food was absolutely incredible. Genuinely impressive barbecue, in my top 5 ever. Polite and great service. The inside is small but decorated well and cozy. read more

Amazing food every time! Try the smoked wings & any of their side options. Also have used them for catering and impressed with quality & quantity of food. read more

Very friendly, great food. Recommend wings, pickles and loaded potato. Cool spot and nice outdoor space to enjoy.

We're visiting out of town and saw this cute little shop and decided to try it. We got the pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato fries. We also got mild smoked wings and ribs. The pulled pork sandwich is good. I often find that sometimes pork is dry but this one wasn't. The sweet potato fries felt like they had just been warmed up. The ribs and wings were both chewy. Almost like they boiled the ribs. They were the consistency of boiled meat. The wings had a great outside texture but the inside was also chewy. I wouldn't recommend the ribs or wings. Saint Louis bbq is better for sure. read more

I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon & had the pulled pork special. I honestly don't know what else you could ask for. There was a short line at the drive thru (never go to a bbq joint with no line!) Service was prompt, The pork was good. Sauce was on the sweet side. Curly fries were great but I wish I'd tried the home made chips. The only thing holding down this rating is the presence of world class bbq an hour away in Nashville & I'd hate to dilute the 5 star reviews of those places. read more

Rip off and gave bull crap answer about why there's not a full order of fries won't be returning EVER again you've upped your prices and lowered your food quality. read more

Pulled pork sandwich was really good. There lunch special was very nicely priced. It was $7.67 with taxes. It came with a side and a drink. Worth every penny.. I will be back. Delicious.. read more

Literal dog food. I've had better bbq nachos from my highschool. Disappointing service and don't even have hush puppies. Go to strouds or blue pig if you want edible bbq read more

We stopped here on the way to Gatlinburg,TN and so glad we did. Oh BOY, it's good BBQ. And the curly fries are the perfect addition. Will definitely stop here next time we are in Cookeville. Make sure you get your picture with Ronald Reagan! read more

Went there at 6:45 pm on a Saturday and they were closed. The posted hours say its open until 7. Not a great way to do business.

This probably one my my favorite local spots to eat at when I'm in town. Food is good and the portions are plenty and they won't break your wallet! The quesadillas...yum! Stay tuned for more updates. Go check them out in the meantime! read more

Moogies - a plate of quesadillas and a fork - Barbeque Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

I liked... lightly smoked.... more porky goodness! It wasn't the best quality but I really appreciate the fact that you could taste the meat. This may get me kicked out of the " South " ( or at least Tennessee) but I find that they over smoke things and thus compromise it's potential. read more

Came hungry. Left happy :). The pulled pork nachos are off the hook. The guy who works there is really nice, too. read more

After eating at Moogies both my husband and I were very ill. I got food poisoning from the chicken and my husband got it from the ribs. He was so sick he was hospitalized. We will not be returning. If you eat there have an iron stomach... read more

This is a small mom-and-pop place. It's down on the side of the road in a red plywood building with no more than six tables inside and a few more outside. There is a rock pit in the back where you park. The pricing here is relatively inexpensive there are A list of meals ranging from $11 to family meals at $25 customer service is excellent. The barbecue ribs were slightly greasy and they only offered one type of sauce. The food was cooked perfectly was not very flavorful but was juicy and then with the ribs fell off the bone. As far as the average Tennessee barbecue this was arranged to be about a three. Despite that this place has a lot of charm friendly service and is relatively at a great price. If you find yourself in Cookeville and you don't want to go to a McDonald's or chain restaurant stop on down you'll enjoy yourself. read more

Okay. So the bathroom is out in a little shack out back. Scary at first. But clean. My sister and I went inside and it was bbq heaven. We went crazy and ordered so much food and proceeded to eat it all. The staff are super friendly and gave us great advice on the food. We found this place by smell. As we were driving through Cookville all we could smell was bbq and we drove around until we found it. Wrote on the wall and bought t-shirts.. read more

Pork Nachos are a 10/10. Food and atmosphere is great. They have nice outdoor seating.

My goto BBQ in cookeville. The Wings are amazing, the wing sauce is average. The Bbq nachos are a fat boys dream.

Location is terrible, staff is rude, and the food is overpriced for less than average.

Great food and the staff is even better. The wings are crispy and have an excellent smoky taste. The pulled chicken sandwich is one of the best out there. The staff is very friendly and make you feel at home. I will definitely find myself here every chance I get when I am in the area. read more

Don't judge this excellent BBQ establishment by its outside - it may not look like much but it's the best BBQ in Cookeville period! Great sauce, good portions for your price paid and it won't break the bank to take the family. The pulled pork is good but it's the ribs that keep mr coming back again and again! read more

I cant tell you if thefood is good bad or otherwise. I ordered 2 lbs of ribs sides and fried pickles. Now first rib out had ahlong hair wrapped around it. That means 35.00 worth of bbq in the trash. That means place lacks cleanliness standards. That means we and everyone we can warn dont go back. 1 star is to high. read more

I consider myself a BBQ aficionado and I have to say this place is a real find in a small town like Cookeville. The meat is cooked perfectly every time and the serving is plentiful. The BBQ Baked Potato is hands down the best I've ever had. The potato is cooked all the way through so it's soft and always hot. I specify this because I've purchased them elsewhere and parts of the potato were cold- not here. I've had the BBQ sandwich and the wings as well- all good but it's hard not to get the potato every time. Find this place next time you're in town. You will be glad you did. read more

Best BBQ in Cookeville. Try the jumbo wings. You will not be disappointed.

I love their food and the staff is always friendly and helpful. The macaroni bites are addicting.

This is some of the best BBQ I've ever had! The ribs were fall off the bone phenomenal. The sauce was great! The staff was incredible and helpful. We tried pretty much everything on the menu, I can honestly say if I'm ever anywhere near Cookeville, I'll be going back to Moogies. Even if I'm near Nashville, I'll detour there. Worth the drive!! read more

In LOVE with Moogie's!!!!! Awesome smoked wings that can't be beat! Hands down my absolute favorite!!!!! Missing their location at Dale Hallow Lake, but make the drive every weekend at the lake just to get those awesome wings!!!!!! read more

Smoked Bologna was pretty darn good! Fried pickle spears...yummy! BBQ ehhh....I'm from Ga so everyone has their favorite BBQ joint and mine wasn't here. It's not a bad local spot at all but I have had better. Didn't care for the slaw. read more

Moogies - Barbeque Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

Best BBQ in Cookeville. The smaller dining area is such a down home feel. You can see the smoker and they still do it the old fashioned way. I had wings and my husband had ribs. So Wonderful. Thank You Moogie read more

This is just simply amazing, but you have to get the smoked wings if you don't it's not the full experience. When you do get the wings they will make you not ever want any wings again they are just oh. I am hungry thinking about them. Just go here and get wings you will not regret it. read more

Not only do they have the best ribs and wings in town but the service is second to none. These people will go beyond what is expected to make their customer happy. I won't go anywhere else. #RTR read more

Went for lunch. Ribs were good, chips were cold wings were ok. My wife and I got sick after. Not to exciting of an experience.

These guys were awesome! My coworker and I needed something delivered.. they don't deliver but they went out of their way to help us and made an exception. Customer Service, how refreshing! read more

This is a good local bbq diner / drive-thru with scrawled-on walls and a little opening on one wall from which heart and soul pour forth in the form of smoked meats, sauces and starches. The highlight of the menu is the idiosyncratic chicken tenders (a combo special is $5.99), which here means a smoked chicken breast cut up into strips (about the size of large steak fries), fried without batter, and smothered in bbq, mild, or hot sauce (like buffalo sauce). The "sweet vinegar" coleslaw is fresh and finely chopped (almost minced) with a clear, mild, low-acid dressing. Curly fries are slightly seasoned but not overpoweringly so, and tend toward the damp or soggy side. Housemade fresh-squeezed lemonade, like the coleslaw dressing, is mild and low-acid, but here with an aftertaste of karo syrup, like sweet tea with lemon but without the tea. It makes for a good match with the savory heat of the "hot" bbq sauce. read more

Order your sandwich without sauce (or on the side) and you'll get a nice, smoked bbq pork flavor. The sweet tomato based sauce just overpowers the good meat flavor. The sweet cole slaw was a pleasant change from regular slaw while the baked beans were tasty. In all a good meal, even better without drenching it in sauce. read more

Very good food. Got there just before closing so they were out of a number of their side items. to make up for that, the gentleman working gave me an extra serving of freshly cut pulled pork as i was ready to leave. Not much for decor and not a lot of seating, but the food and service were great. BBQ sauce is very thick, which i prefer over the thin vinegar based bbq sauces read more

Best BBQ in Cookeville. They have real wood smoked meats. The menu is simple but all the items are really good. I love their pork. Quality does seem to have went down a little since the old man doesn't work there much anymore. Still good though read more
