Back in Chamblee for dinner at a spot that feels like it has anchored the neighborhood for decades. As soon as I stepped out of the car, the scent of slow-cooked meat drifted through the air and I knew I was in for something special. I went with the brisket, cole slaw, and collards. Skipped the bread. The brisket was tender and flavorful, not oversized and not greasy. Every bite had depth and richness, and it was so soft I could slice it with the edge of the plastic fork. It practically dissolved. Even at 6pm, the cole slaw held its crunch and had a touch of sweetness that balanced the plate. The collards were a standout--tangy, savory, and loaded with bits of meat that added texture and soul. I finished everything. Not a scrap left. They do offer a small pot of sauce. It was good. But honestly, the brisket didn't need it. It was already juicy and full of flavor. [Review 1255 of 2025 - 825 in Georgia - 24807 overall] read more

I spent 15 minutes on their website putting the perfect food order together. Their website is trash, designed by an amateur. The categories are clunky. There is no pricing listed until you're like 3 clicks deep. Total trash. Once I got to my cart, put in my credit card details, I click pay and nothing. No error message, no request for more information, no we closed, something I forgot, nothing. It just didn't work. They wasted my time and I will never try to order online. I went in person to eat and the food was bad and the service was bad. Don't eat here until they start to take pride in the business they are running. read more

I made a "donation" here. Yelpers, you have let me down again! Sigh... Had been SO excited to try this place, and I finally did. Sigh... What's up with your taste buds, Yelpers? Is your idea of BBQ what you get from a Piccadilly? Seriously! OK, folks. I got a sandwich, the macaroni and cheese, and the peach cobbler. It was all ready before I had a chance to settle into my wait for the carryout. That was either gonna be a GOOD sign or a bad one. Unfortunately, it was the latter. The chicken sandwich was a dry as a nekkid corn cob in the Sahara! How is this possible? The chicken bits were drenched in black pepper and hard; some pieces were clearly from a previous week.The sweet sauce on the side had clumps. The bun was literally straight out of the Sunbeam bag. No heat, no butter. Nothing. If you've ever had a tortilla straight out of the bag, you know what I'm talking about! That "raw" taste! The mac had a brick, yes, I said brick of concealed cheddar that never melted all the way. And it wasn't on top. It was off to the side, like someone said, "oh yeah, here stick this brick in there so that it looks like macaroni AND cheese." It's was GROSS. Overcooked noodles with a white coating laced with nutmeg. Blech! The peach cobbler was the only thing I'd consider freshly made, but it was gummy and had NO taste. If the nutmeg from the macaroni had been applied to the cobbler instead, it would have helped. I didn't detect ANY vanilla nor butter. It LOOKED good, and it was warm, and that's it! Maybe this place is existing off nostalgia from days gone by. This is the Deep South. If you don't know REAL BBQ, you are missing out! 'Cause, honey, this ain't it! read more

This is your typical BBQ joint. You order at the counter, pay, pick up your own food, and clean your table once you are done. I ordered combo #3 (ribs and brisket). The ribs were decent and the brisket was extremely lean. I like the vinegar BBQ sauce and sweet BBQ sauce that came with the tray. The collard greens and mac were the stars of the show. I will return just for the sides. White bread was just blah. This is a stand alone building that is huge and hard to miss. Plenty of parking. read more

Food: 3/5 I personally felt like the ribs were dry and the outside was hard. Inside meat was a little softer but I'm not kidding when I say that at times it felt like I was eating beef jerky. Sweet sauce is good though and so is the mac and cheese! I loved getting to pick 2 sides (can swap the brunswick stew for another side). I did double mac and have 0 regrets, I looove mac n cheese Service: 5/5 I ordered a handful of things to-go and they had my order ready right on time! They labeled everyone's order exactly as I had asked, and everyone's order was neatly packaged and included all that was needed (utensils, napkins, bread, sauce on side). I appreciate that Old Brick Pit actually takes note of their "special notes" section from the online ordering, because some places don't. read more

Old Brick Pit Barbeque - Rib Plate - Barbeque Near Me - Chamblee, Georgia

I've been here before like 3'yrs ago in person. At the time I tried the bbq chicken it was okay. It's been so long ago. At the time I'm not sure if brisket was available or on a certain day. I got my food through Uber Eats and I got the brisket plate. It says that the brisket is cooked for 22 hrs. I can taste the seasoning on it. I like it the fat on it tastes good also. I knew that it was going to be delicious when I saw it in the butcher paper iykyk. That is great sign not a red flag. Also the sauce is boss. The sides are alright Mac and cheese and potato salad. Brisket is delicious I would definitely get this again. It's sliced like I like it not thick like roast beef. I got my food through Uber Eats on 12-8-2025. Pull up and check them out or order through Uber Eats. read more

Great service and food. Just wish they had more southern sides and better bread choice with the dinner.

Had a great lunch at Old Brick Pit with a dear old friend in the area who has been coming there for decades. Ribs, pulled pork, Brunswick Stew and collards were all excellent. I'll be back! read more

Fantastic again. Solid barbecue Carolina style . Real Brunswick stew and good slaw. Where else can you get a pork plate with stew and slaw for 10 bucks? Efficient fast service with a cute smile. Self serve ambiance with ample indoor and outdoor seating. read more

I placed an order for an event in our office to pick up at 11 when they open up, and they had my order ready and helped me load it all into my truck. Let me tell you. They have the best banana pudding, ribs, and barbecue around. Do not pass this place up if you are looking for food and service. Everyone in the office and our customers from out of town (Tennessee) were amazed. read more

Listen I might be a northerner, but this is some fine barbecue !!!! I had the ribs and brisket plate, collards, beans, Brunswick stew and some banana pudding. The brisket was really good, the ribs were awesome. They were perfectly butchered so the membrane was gone and they fell off the bone. The greens and beans were good. But that banana pudding was life changing. read more

I bought half chicken. The meat tasted old!!! Pulled pork barbecue was extremely dry.

Food was not that good. The chicken had some kind of cheap nasty sauce on it so I did not enjoy the half of chicken. The sides were better than the actual meal would not come back here again it's not like the old owner and how it used to taste back in the day. read more

been dreaming of this place for 3 months! We go after Dr appts because we are close. Today we had the combo plates 2 ribs, pulled pork, slaw, stew, and 2 pcs of white bread for $14.50 plus a tea for $3.50. Worth every penny! First time getting the ribs and oh my goodness they are FANTASTIC! The stew and slaw are exceptional and of course the pulled pork is delicious. Service is always wonderful bc the people are happy! It has been there at least 45 years and still going strong bc at noon it was packed so we left to go vote and got back about 1:15 still hopping but we got a parking spot and served within 10 minutes! Took home leftovers for dinner and already thinking of what I'll get the next time! read more

I haven't been there in a while and during the summer my friend suggested getting some food from there. We got the BBQ chicken plates and it was Terriffic!!! Basted with a Vinegar based sauce that tasted fantastic!! Picking up food from The drive through is quick and easy. read more

This is one of my go to barbecue places! My family started bringing me here shortly after they opened and it's amazing that they are still around, but not surprising because of their delicious food! Tonight I had the chopped pork combination plate, which was plenty of food for a great price. I tried the collard greens this time which were really good and had a little bit of a sweet flavor as well and I had some of the pepper sauce to them which made them even better! The restaurant is always very clean and tidy and they had a big renovation several years ago. The staff is also friendly and inviting. There are a couple of boots that the vinyl has ripped and can use some attention, but other than that the place is in great shape. This is a great spot to come grab lunch, and when the weather is nice, they have a covered patio to sit outside as well. read more

Love it. This has become my "go to" BBQ place. I have eaten here several times now and tried a few other bbq spots in the area and this is the best easily. This is a classic Georgia bbq spot with indoor and outdoor seating and a fairly limited menu. Don't come here if you don't want bbq. They have pork, ribs, and chicken. Don't expect vegan options. The sauce is a peppery vinegar South Georgia style sauce, no molasses or brown sugar in this sauce. The meat comes nicely smoked and pulled with just a splash of sauce and more sauce on the side. My first couple trips here I stuck with pulled pork and it was good. But now that I have tried the ribs there will be no going back. The ribs are excellent and what put them over the top to 5 stars for me. Alone I would give the pulled pork a solid 4 stars. The stew is good, not perfect, but again a solid 4 out of 5. But those ribs are 5+ all day long. The combination plate is the most expensive thing on the menu at $13.50 and worth every penny. The portions are large. They have sandwiches if you don't want a plate and they are only $3.25. They do serve some adult beverages, but this is no micro brewery pretending to serve bbq, this is real barbecue in the best of Georgia tradition. The only suggestion I could add for the owners is that many bbq places I have visited in south and central Georgia offer a house salad that often comes with a pile of pulled pork on it honestly I would probably never order this, I will stick with the ribs. But I do know people who might. I highly recommend the Old Brick Pit. Enjoy! read more

About as southern BBQ as you can get. Counter service. Standard but quality BBQ plates and sides.

Must have been a not so good day at Old Brick Pit BBQ cause the ribs were over cooked and extremely dry. The cole slaw had no flavor... Overall a pretty negative experience. read more

Excellent old school barbecue joint. Reminds me of the place I worked in as a teen. I've eaten there before, but today was the first time to try the brisket. Nicely done, tender wikthout being mushy. One of my main complaints with many places is that the slaw or stew tends to be cloyingly sweet. Not here. Just a hint of sweet, just right. Good food, fair pricing, no pretense. Love it. read more

Excellence in value. Great employees and food. Collards are the best! Try the chopped chicken too!

This is the last entrant on Southern Living's 2019 roster of the top 50 BBQ restaurants in the South, and well worth a visit. At lunch, $19.60 purchased a 3 rib plate with sides of mac 'n cheese and Brunswick stew, a large banana pudding, and a can of Diet Coke. The stew combined a soupy texture with the classic, slightly peppery flavor profile. Yum! Alas, the mac 'n cheese offered no surprise, except that it was barely warm. Ah, but the ribs are beautifully prepared, with a slightly sweet rub that seals the moisture into meat that separates cleanly at the bite. The pudding features wafers, pudding and bananas, but no whipped cream. Still, it's not overly sweet, so it does make for a nice finish to a pretty good lunch. read more

Very casual spot for BBQ. We placed a to go order at the counter and it was ready in short order. The cashier was very polite and helpful, offering recommendations on what to sample since it was our first time. The BBQ is very good. We enjoyed the chicken, pork, and a stew that was absolutely exceptional (but spicy). Highly recommend as a casual BBQ spot. read more

Love this place! Just came for the first time. Ribs were fall off the bone, sides were great, great music. We will be back!

Me and my boyfriend went to Old Brick Pit Barbeque. It was his first time there and he loved the two pulled pork sandwiches he got! He said that it was the fastest bbq sandwiches he's ever seen! I had a brisket plate and it was RICH with flavor. This place is a diamond in the rough. Simply put, best BBQ in North Atlanta. read more

I came here for lunch on a whim and LOVED every single thing I ate. The staff was super friendly and help and the facility was clean and inviting I ordered the pulled pork plate with Mac n cheese and collard greens. The portion size was great and I left feeling satisfied. The food was so tasty that I was unfortunately not able to take a picture. There's plenty of parking on site and they have indoor and outdoor seating for patrons read more

I wanted something small, simple, and basic. I was driving down the street and made a quick turn into this place. For a simple bite of bbq. Just a small disclaimer, The sauce here is not the best vinegar base sauce I had so I'm glad it was on the side. I think everything had too much vinegar in it. Maybe it's to cut the natural saltiness of the pork, in not sure, but it's not my cup of tea. My order: I got the 3 rib plate with Brunswick stew, coleslaw and bread. The ribs were tender and they are cooked in with some of the sauce product. The coleslaw was too vinegary for my liking. Brunswick stew also had too much vinegar for my liking. Overall, not the best bbq I had but wasn't that bad. I just think it maybe an overuse of vinegar. I would suggest ordering the ribs only no sauce or seeing how the chicken goes. read more

There is more advanced BBQ out there, but you'll have a hard time finding a better cheap eats version. Pulled pork and tea are reliable, but the fall apart ribs are the best grub. The half bird is a great option as well. The house sauce hints at the Carolinas, and the sweet sauce is good. The only thing lacking is a fryer and a toaster, but I can see how that would impact the upkeep costs. Keep it simple. read more

I have reviewed them before and absolutely loved them. We eat there a lot and I have sent I don't know how many people there to try it. I can say the service has always been lacking, but the food made up for it. Until yesterday. Yesterday I ordered for my husband, me and our two-year-old daughter. It was almost $60 with tip, which is what I was expecting. But they gave us my husband's food and my daughter's food And when we went back inside to tell them that we didn't have my food we were asked what we did with it. We took our stuff out to eat on the patio. I ordered a pork plate and the Brunswick stew didn't have a lid so it's not like I was just gonna go hide it in my car And try to get more food. I was then asked to show my receipt which I had tapped no receipt when paying because I didn't feel like I needed it. She told my husband more than once that she really didn't feel like she needed to give us another pork plate. I didn't get it to begin with! I told him to forget it and they could eat and we would go. She ended up giving me my food and then stood there calling me a liar to the other people there. We won't be back. read more

Very good bbq, can't give 5 stars because it is not the best I have ever had but I easily put in the top 5 of Atlanta. If you like Carolina style bbq without being overpowered with vinegar this is a spot for you. Cool old school vibe aswell Definitely recommend read more

The perfect no-frills bbq joint!! This place has a nice little covered patio and when we came for lunch it was packed! The prices for this place were super cheap and super tasty as well. This is definitely the place to come for some good bbq without the frills and it's reflected in the pricing as well. I got the bbq pork sandwich and brunswick stew and my partner got the bbq pork sandwich and baked beans. The bbq pork sandwich comes with the bbq sauce on the side, so you can add as you like or opt out. I enjoyed the bbq sauce and doused it on the sandwich. The pork was so tender and packed with flavor. The bun is really about as generic as you can get . The sandwich is on the smaller side, but with the pricing you can easily get two. We had a lighter lunch so one was fine for me. The brunswick stew was loaded with meat and some corn and was so good! My partner enjoyed his beans as well, but said they were a little sweet. (We opted not to get the combination plate as we aren't the biggest fans of cole slaw, but the bread on the combination plate is your standard white bread untoasted.) We will most definitely be back as the pricing for this food was unbeatable! (~$15 for food and tip for 2) read more
