Catfish
A W.

On top of this place being adorable the staff was super enthusiastic and kind. We've passed by this place a few times and finally stopped it was so worth it. They fried us some fresh catfish they were so yummy. We both got pulled pork sandwiches the fries are outstanding! Coleslaw and potato salad were good but would love to try some other sides next time. We got a few different desserts they were allllll licious! Def worth a drive out of the way to stop by!

Catfish bites and pork sandwich.

The food was really good. The pork sandwich was really good. But the star of the show was the catfish. Easily the best I've ever had. The service was great too and she really coached me on what to order. I ate here twice in two days and wish I could have come more.

I was travelling out to North Carolina to visit my daughter and as I do on every road trip I look for local and unique BBQ spots to stop. As I drove through the mountains of Virginia, I passed by this BBQ spot on the opposite side of the road. It was lunch time, and I was hungry, so I turned around and it was definitely worth it!! I broke one of my usual rules which is not to get pulled pork, it's such an easy meat to do and to be honest most places don't do it justice. Piggy's pulled pork was just like I'd do at home, tender, juicy and had the perfect smoke ring. I got Mac n Cheese and beans as my sides and they were a star just like the pork. I was asked if I liked fried catfish, and I mean honestly who can say no?? LOL. I did in fact get a small side of their fried catfish and it was some of the best I've ever had. The service is friendly and laid-back, making it a great spot for a relaxed meal, if I take the same path the next time I head to North Carolina I will be stopping by again. This place nails the perfect BBQ experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing we would've missed it if it weren't for yelp!! Fish is so flaky and tender. Batter is just right. Beans and potato wedges were very good. Pulled pork was tender and delicious. Highly recommend!!

Pulled pork with BBQ sauce and coleslaw.

Found them in Yelp and glad we stopped by. They are super nice and friendly. Food is excellent and reasonably priced. No indoor seating, (that we saw, anyway), so we ate in the car as it was a chilly 48 degrees outside. Would definitely come again!

Best catfish I have ever had with slaw.

I travel a lot and this was my first time eating there. By far the best catfish and slaw I have tasted. Workers were nice and helpful.

Excellent food excellent service restaurant is always clean waitress always prompt​ me and my wife…read moreare from Michigan just moved to Virginia we love the huddle House

There really are NOT a lot of options for a sit down breakfast in the Wise area. That's a bummer…read more So, we showed up here to relax and have breakfast one weekend rather than eat in our cars. I was saying goodbye to family and we decided to eat here before driving off in all directions. As a chain breakfast spot goes, the food was in the lower part of the OK zone. It wasn't nearly as good as the higher end breakfast spots and kind of felt behind the standard. Kind of the "value" breakfast. It was warm, eggs were great, it met the needs. Staff was great. Waitress was very nice, polite and attentive. The cook was working his butt off and really hustled in the kitchen doing an A+ job. The management should be proud of the people here. With OK food and great staff, the score dropped because of the seating. We had six adults put at a table that really was designed terribly. In likely another cost saving measure by their franchise operations, they have this ledge along all the windows. It hangs out about 6". If you are along the window and eat with that arm, forget it. It was a crazy inconvenience. I almost went to 2 because of the poor design. If you are a cost accountant, maybe you would rate it higher on the ability to cram people into a space designed to cost the least to build.

Huddle House - Solid food with the MVP breakfast. Eggs were good, biscuits/gravy were ok. Definitely a par on the course if scoring.

Huddle House - TERRIBLE ledge if you have 6 people at a table. DON'T DO IT.
