    This doesn't look that amazing
    Chris D.

    I really love some good barbecue but this didn't have much flavor in the barbecue was more chopped up than anything . The texture I didn't care for the barbecue remind me of what coleslaw looks like ,maybe it'll be better next time.

    Some things are best left unchanged.

    Consistently good BBQ. Nice ladies behind the counter and interesting people to talk to. Brunswick stew is some of the best.

They were celebrating a Manager getting a promotion and all the staff just seemed so happy for them! My 7 yr old son was so excited he was even in the back clapping with them! It was genuinely so lovely to see a group of hard working employees who looked happy at their job! I loved the quick service aspect! It made it so much faster for us because we had 2 kids! And I loved the patio! The weather was perfect and they had so much seating space! And the food-always delicious and so flavorful! The cheesy bread is a classic staple for Jim N Nicks and one you just can't stop eating! I got a burger and it was delicious as always! My husband got the 2 meat platter and was soo excited that they had Jalapeño Cheddar sausage links!! Our 1 yr old loved the Mac n Cheese and baked Beans!

The food is good ish, but it wasn't as much as an emotional experience finding a mom and pop spot in the back woods that has amazing bbq. The sides were ok, this is where the mom and pop locations shine. Corn was ok and had better Mac. The meat was good but the brisket was dry. Maybe I had just an old or bad slice. This could depend of when you come and will give them a pass on that. Found it over priced to be honest. I enjoyed it, sadly I don't think I will be back. If your are around one and wanted to enjoy some bbq sure come here. But I think you can find much better in Georgia.

    With my quest for good BBQ in the North in a state of continued failure, it goes without saying…read morethat when I'm home in Georgia, BBQ ribs are a given. Today, I enjoyed an old favorite, Fresh Air Bar-B-Que. Located in the far corner of a strip mall, it's easy to miss; but, it's well worth keeping an eye out for. If your looking for ambiance, we'll, it's a rib place. You don't get that. You do get a clean, and friendly atmosphere, with great food. I chose the rib plate (what else would I choose), which featured a moist, fall off the bone tender, half pound of ribs, with just a taste of tangy, but optional, BBQ sauce, ( don't worry. If you want more sauce, it's there for you on the table in hot or mild varieties. If you must, And I don't see why you would, you can also add Texas Pete's hot sause, which is also there) small cups of appropriately modest flavored Brunswick stew (packed with delicious...uh...Brunswick stew stuff) and sweet, crispy, cole slaw. Add in a slice of thick sliced bread, to sop up the goodness; and, for $13.99, before tax and a well earned tip, you have, I repeat, a great, filling, meal. Want more evidence? My photo was taken mid-meal. The food was so tasty, I nearly forgot to snap photo.

My coworkers love their food and out-of-town visitors are always impressed with the food too. Fresh Air takes all the headaches out of catering. The catering team always accurately calculates just the right amount of food for the lunches. Delivery is on time. They set it up for us and provide all the plates, cups, cutlery, ice and condiments we need. Their prices are extremely reasonable and the food is delicious! The huge smiles on my coworkers faces when they see Fresh Air set up makes me happy!

    What was a former bbq place has changed hands, got a face lift and is now another bbq place…read more First, everyone working there was super nice and personable. In this day and age it's a rare find. Even if their food wasn't as good as it was, all of their servers would be bringing up the slack. Girls and the guy...talked, smiled and genuinely looked like they cared about the places success! Salad was standard, but all of the ingredients were fresh and the ranch dressing was house made. I ended up opt-ing for the Alabama white sauce instead because the heat level was better. There wasn't much smoke on the chicken...that would be my only "negative" feedback-maybe that's the point or maybe they are using electric smokers? Wings: Were lightly fried and lightly tossed in sauce of my choice, which was the mesquite bbq...zero complaints on the taste and consistency of the wings. Neither over nor undercooked, they were perfect. Brisket Plate: Brisket was super tender and more on the roasted side of the spectrum. I would imagine they smoke and then add it into liquid to keep it from drying out waiting on table service. The bark is lost because of the liquid factor and what smoke there might have been is muted, much like the chicken. Okra was crispy and the Cole slaw was basic-but had enough Mayo for it to pass as slaw! Baked Potato: Standard set up. The potato wasn't dried out, which was nice. Pulled pork was tender...copy and paste the smoke flavor, written above. Grilled Cheese....it was grilled and had cheese. Fries were hot and crispy. We will surely be back!

    REAL Barbeque!…read more Gainesville, Georgia. 11 am. I was headed for Florida. Driving the back roads to avoid the ATL traffic. Interstate ain't for me! Denied breakfast, I heard those familiar low growls from my midsection. I was hungry. But I was looking for something special. For lunch. NO fast food. NEVER! NO chain restaurants. NOT this time, bud. I wasn't quite sure what I was in the mood for, but I KNEW I'd KNOW it when I SAW it... It was then I seemed to sense the scentual aroma of slow cooked meat over a real pit. Barbeque! YES! THAT'S what I was in the mood for! At that moment, I was tempted to pull over and do my usual online search. But it was still a little too early for lunch, so I ambled on. Mile after mile after mile. Turns out, I believe I was being led by the nose to Covington. I just felt it. Movie town, here I come. Once in town, that is when I hit the web. I sniffed out a place called Bradley's Real Pit Barbeque. Hmmmm. Let's do it! EXACTLY EVERYTHING I EVER wanted in the way of Barbeque!!! I ordered the Half Rack of Ribs, with fries and beans. What I got was a STACK of RIBS...with those delectable fries and beans. Ribs. The HOLY Grail of the grill. The Fall off the Bone smoky goodness carried me to lip smacking, finger lickin, OHHHHHH YEAH ville! Man! Those ribs! (I AM a rib aficionado. A connoisseur of pit cooking). THESE were no fib ribs. FINER than fine with a huge touch of yum. OHHHHH Yeah. I now LOVE Bradley's. Looking for any excuse to drive north, to Movie town and sit down. Like the Terminator said, "I'll be back!"
