    BBQ pork sandwich with coleslaw

    I absolutely love Smithfield's! They make the best baked beans and coleslaw. That being said I don't think this particular location in Lumberton got the message on how to make a pork and coleslaw sandwich. The one I received was cold, dry and they might of passed the coleslaw spoon next to my sandwich. No taste and so very dry. Please get the employees some training.

    We stopped by for a late lunch on Saturday. It was not busy and we were greeted by the person taking our order. We ordered the regular bbq plate with coleslaw and potato salad and a chicken and bbq plate with french fries and bbq beans. The bbq was good, i really like the vinegar sauce. The fried chicken was also good. We also liked the coleslaw and bbq beans not fans of the thin french fries (floppy and not crispy) or potato salad (unusual texture and not what we expected). We did enjoy the crunchy hush puppies. Store was clean and the one taking our order checked on us and refilled our drinks.

    This was our first time at A Smithfield's Chicken 'N Bar-B-Q ( in Lumberton NC ) I ordered 2 fried chicken thighs& bbq beans with a lemonade-- excellent fresh juicy chicken, the crispy skin had a tad to much pepper for my personal tastes - The beans had pulled pork in them & fantastic flavor... But a bit thick ! ( who complains about that ?) Hubby had Chicken & Cole slaw Loved both. He was impressed with the flavor of pepper, chicken was hot & fresh! We will definitely try again !

    As we were traveling to North Carolina from South Carolina we needed to stop for lunch. I saw one of the exit signs for Smithfield's. I immediately told my husband we had to go. I remember going to Smithfield's when I was younger growing up in North Carolina. My husband is born and raised in South Carolina. I needed to introduce him to North Carolina BBQ! We had the kids with us as well. When we walked in we were immediately greeted and were able to walk up to the counter and order. I forgot how much I like y'all's hushpuppies and coleslaw! I missed the vinegar based BBQ. The portions were more then enough. The dining room was clean. I will definitely look forward to stopping here again when traveling!

    Smithfields is consistently good. Got the chicken and BBQ plate with double coleslaw. Fried chicken was crispy and hot. BBQ was full flavored and moist as usual. Coleslaw was fresh and delicious. A definite place to eat at.

    Not impressed, food just ok, long lines to order and slow for food to come out, just ok, nothing special....

    Almost empty plate!

    My wife and I were driving home from Myrtle Beach and looking for a place to eat. I checked Yelp to…read moresee what was coming up in the area, and Arnold's popped up, so we decided to give it a try. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was packed, which we took as a good sign. Inside, the restaurant was very busy. The hostess seated us and mentioned they were offering a pizza bar for lunch that day. She took our drink order and then came back to take our food order. My wife ordered the steak and cheese with curly fries, and I had the cowboy burger with onion rings. My wife said the steak and cheese was good, though the curly fries lacked seasoning. My burger was a little different than expected -- it comes on grilled Texas toast -- but it was still good, just a bit heavy on the bread. The onion rings, however, were very good. We asked our waitress about the pizza, and she explained that there used to be a pizza place across the street that was always busy. The owner of Arnold's also owned that pizza place, and after it closed and became a gas station, they decided to bring the pizza to Arnold's. She said they just started serving pizza a few weeks ago and have been very busy since adding it. One odd thing worth mentioning was the restroom. It was freezing cold, almost uncomfortable, and when you go to wash your hands there's a sign warning about extremely hot water, but no hot water came out at all. My wife said the women's restroom was the same way. On our way out, we walked past the pizza bar. The pizza looked excellent -- very thin crust, just the way we like it -- and they also had spaghetti available. When we're back in the area again, we'll definitely stop in to try the pizza.

    Not being from the area we basically flipped a coin while choosing a restaurant for dinner, there's…read morenothing like ordering and eating the daily special while listening to some head banging tunes from Nirvana and Metallica at a volume that drowns out the staff - but we got through it which is more than I can say for the meal. Our server Annie was outstanding, very friendly and attentive if I were just reviewing the service this would be a five star review the only thing she miss was she charged me a credit card fee even though I paid cash, unfortunately the kitchen staff isn't doing this restaurant any favors the frozen from a box preparations give even old greasy bar food a good name. We started with the fried chicken skin appetizer which are delicious if you've ever had them prepared fresh by a chef instead of previously frozen from a short order cook with little to no training, they were horrible if I had only one request it would be to remove these from the menu. After going back and forth we both decided to order the Thursday Night Special - a fried Katfish fillet, fried pop-corn shrimp, fries and plenty of grease with a side of pre-portioned coleslaw - I have no words for this mess I think the cook dumped everything straight from the fryer to the plate without letting the old grease drain back into the fryer. I may be a little harsh on the kitchen but they have issues and if any of them noticed we ate very little of anything plated here and passed on the slaw. Fortunately we were just passing through so we don't have to return here or blame it on "they were just having a bad day" I could of spent my dough on losing lottery tickets and would have been happier, the food here gets a do not recommend...
