The sides were delicious. Be careful with the cheesy corn--it has a nice jalapeño kick. The green beans were slightly sweet and spicy, and the mac and cheese was good as well. Last but not least, the ribs and brisket were excellent. The brisket was very moist with a nice amount of fat, and the ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender. I personally like my ribs with a little more pull, but overall, everything was very good. If we come back to the area, this will definitely be a must-stop for BBQ!

First off, credit where it's due--the…read moreservice was great, the place was clean, and walking in smelled like a BBQ candle made by angels. The outdoor area was awesome for the kids to play, and being in a plaza with other shops makes it an easy family stop. Now for the food plot twist. I ordered the pulled pork, ribs, and chicken. The chicken showed up ready to represent the whole team--tender, smoky, and honestly the MVP of the tray. The pulled pork, however, tasted like it had been placed into the warming tray first thing that morning and was still serving overtime by the time I got there. The ribs looked like competition BBQ, but flavor-wise they mainly introduced me to black pepper and then left the conversation. Sides review: the twice baked potatoes were seasoned well and definitely pulled their weight. The mac and cheese was okay--nothing offensive, nothing life-changing, just there for moral support. Overall, this place has a lot going for it: great service, family-friendly setup, clean atmosphere, and some real potential. But the BBQ was more of a split decision than a knockout.

I found scant information online about the Watering Hole, but something about what I was able to see made it seem like a place we wanted to go. I mentioned it to staff at some of the places around town and was told the same thing over and over "it's really a local's bar.". This was usually followed by a compliment like "it's great", but I wasn't sure what was meant by the first part. I remained stubbornly committed to checking it out. I was visiting Broken Bow as a group of three ladies celebrating a birthday. We were looking for a place to kick off a Saturday night that would definitely end with some dancing. We were appropriately, if not slightly ridiculously, wearing matching fringe jackets and hyped for our fun evening. When we pulled up at the Watering Hole, we could see inside the whole place. Less than 10 patrons were inside, about 90% were guys. Real guys guys, ranging in age from 45 to 65 and we had a moment of trepidation about how our silly feminine energy would be received. Any nerves we had shook right out of our fringe after we went inside. We were greeted warmly by a few of the patrons, who came over and inquired about our outfits. The curiosity came from a nice place and they kindly wished our birthday girl a happy birthday. We were even gifted a beverage called The Sasquatch. Bright yellow, deadly strong and banana flavored, we split it amongst the three of us and enjoyed it to the last drop. Grant was bartending and chatting with him was a highlight of our entire evening. He was interested and interesting and clearly a skilled barman. He shared insights to the local are humored our music selection before wishin and sending us on to scoot our boots. This is a perfect local's bar, and we were welcomed like locals. Every town should have a Watering Hole.

They stayed on top of the water refills and I appreciated the vat (I'm kidding) I mean the squeeze bottle of ranch dressing (yes, I am one of those people.) The fries had the peels on which I love and they were pretty tasty. I had the mushroom bacon swiss burger and my hubby had the classic burger without cheese. Both burgers were good. He ordered onion rings and those were a big hit. I would also note that the onions rings appeared beer battered and a bit more cakey with a smoother finish than ones with flour breading. That is a personal preference for some. They were very good. I love love love the atmosphere here. It has such a nice patio atmosphere and there were lots of families and couples dining al fresco. We would definitely return. It is so nice to sit outside here.

We were two women visiting solo and he kept trying to ask us if we had plans to party or get drunk. I think it was his way of making small talk, but it was very odd. The sandwiches were small and overpriced for what you received. I was expecting a gourmet sandwich and they are just your run of the mill what appears to be grocery store and jarred ingredients. I ordered the grilled cheese and my friend ordered the caprese. We both left wishing we had just gotten ingredients at the grocery store and made sandwiches where we were staying instead of going to this food truck.

The food is overpriced considering the meh quality, but clearly the owner knows tourist options are fairly limited due to the relative remoteness of the location in the area. If you are looking for a "fancy" restaurant in Broken Bow, this is probably the closest to one we saw during our weekend stay, but it falls far short when even compared to basic restaurants in the relatively close by big city of the DFW Metroplex just a few hours to the South West of the area. Stick with camping food. Whatever you bring to town to cook in your cabin / Air B&B will probably be better than what they have here.
