I can't believe there is BBQ this good in Florida. This joint was hopping on a Saturday afternoon. You can order at the counter for take out or dine in. They also have a full service bar where you can order. Brisket sandwich is legit good. But the King Sandwich has cheese sauce, two jalapeño poppers, and smoked sausage for only $2 more. Mac and Cheese is heavy on the cheese and delicious. Potato salad is different. I enjoyed it but the flavor contrasts with the bbq flavors instead of complimenting them. Multiple sauce bottles are available at your table and I was surprised that I enjoyed the western Carolina style the most. Banana pudding was good. I would definitely come back when in JAX. read more

The Bearded Pig - Barbeque Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

Haven't been here in a few years. Was unimpressed when they were at their old location, and this visit really wasn't any different. Happy hour beer was thoroughly disappointing. Smaller price, but smaller beer. Pic attached represents what was handed to me before I took a sip - stingy and flat. Got the burnt ends and jalapeño poppers for an appetizer, and the wings for dinner. Burt ends were delicious, smoky and flavorful. However, poppers and wings were pretty bland. They could have used more seasoning. It's an ok place and definitely very popular. Lots of after work traffic dropping in. I just don't get the appeal of a happy hour short on pour and bland bbq. But hey, it's just my taste and opinions. read more

Really cute, casual spot with plenty of parking. You order at the front when you come in, get a number, and they bring the food to your table. The guy who took our ordered was very nice. Everything was very very good the only thing we didn't enjoy the Burnt Ends ($10 ) . They were a little to fatty and not cook enough. We didn't say anything so I am not sure if they would have remade for us . We also ordered some meet à la carte . You can choose how much you want . Sides are not included . The brisket and turkey were are favorite . Ribs were good . read more

Had to try this place from the Michelin Guide while visiting Jacksonville. I'm not usually a big fan of BBQ but I really enjoyed it. The outdoor patio was great for a cool day, the food was tasty, and I especially appreciated the selection of sauces right at the table - I tried them all! read more

The Bearded Pig - Turkey sandwich and mac n cheese, salad with pulled pork, brisket sandwich and fries - Barbeque Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I ate the brisket and chicken, seasonal- sweet potato and mac and cheese, banana pudding. My family ate the rest of the food we got with the "San Marco" platter. A lot of their sides are vinegar based hence my reason for picking the sides I got. I was looking for a more texas style bbq- as their brisket is, the remainder reminds me of carolina style. They had a game on, loud inside & decent outside even with the humidity. The lady taking our order was very informative, the staff is prompt upon turning tables. They do have a small parking lot and we were able to claim a spot :) read more

Stopped n for food and drinks today. Loved all of it. Ordered the brisket, spare ribs, sausage, and burnt ends. Brisket was amazing. I ordered moist and it was exactly what I was expecting. . The ribs were excellent as well. The sauces at the table were not needed but added to the overall experience. Would highly recommend the Bearded Pig if you're in the Jacksonville area and need a fun spot for food. Great patio and indoor outdoor bar. The servers and bussers were super friendly and engaging. Well done y'all! read more

The Bearded Pig - Brisket, Ribs, Sausage and M&C - Barbeque Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

Used Bearded Pig as our latest book club meet up and it was a hit. Lots of parking. When you walk in, your place your order at the counter and take a number. You can order meat by the 1/2 lb or 1 lb, sides, or even sets. There is indoor seating, seating outside underneath a covered patio, or bar seating. I love how the indoor flows into the outdoor. The service was great, they were funny and friendly and even brought us our silverware even though it's on a separate table that you can grab yourself. The brisket itself was delicious, I love how they gave me the option for fatty, lean, or both. Will definitely be back read more

Delicious bbq. Husband and I enjoyed going to their Jacksonville Beach location but took the 30 minute drive to have some yummy bbq. We were happy to make the drive! I got pull pork sandwich, Mac and cheese, French fries and baked beans. My husband got 10 chicken wings, turkey and sausage along with cold slaw and baked beans. We ordered way too much food but now have leftovers for tomorrow! read more

Came in to The Bearded Pig in Jacksonville looking for some solid BBQ and it ended up being one of the better meals we had on the trip. Right away the place had a great vibe, busy but still comfortable, and you could tell they take their food seriously. Marcus took care of us and his service really stood out. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out right without us having to ask. It's always a plus when the service matches the quality of the food, and he definitely made the experience even better. The brisket sandwich was excellent, full of flavor with that perfect smoky taste and really tender meat. You can tell it's done right. The pulled pork sandwich was just as impressive, juicy and packed with flavor in every bite. Both sandwiches were filling and hit the spot. The mac and cheese was great as well, creamy and rich and paired perfectly with the BBQ. It's one of those sides you don't think much about at first but end up finishing completely. Overall this place delivers on both food and service. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in Jacksonville and want some legit BBQ. read more

Came here for the first time- was visiting my brother in Jacksonville, and the staff was kind. They have a parking lot so no need to worry about where to park. You order at the register, they give you a table number, and they bring it out to your table. We got the Whole South Bank (and apparently it was the last for the night- we got there around 7:30/8pm). The Whole South Bank came with ribs, chicken, and two other meets of your choice (we got brisket and pulled pork) along with 4 sides. We also got a Cobb salad since it was a travel day for us and we felt we needed some green. They have both indoor and outdoor seating- we chose indoor due to the air quality that day. They do not have a military discount, but food was pretty good. read more

I love the place. Great drinks. The burnt ends are what dreams are made of. Chill atmosphere. Just overall a great hang.

It's been 6 years since we last visited Jacksonville & our 2019 trip left us with the Bearded Pig as the highlight. We were thrilled to find that this business was not only still in existence, but had moved to a larger property to accommodate for their success! Harley was our server on this visit and she was exceptional. The food was as top notch as we remembered, enough to make us know that anytime we are in Jax, this is where we are coming. We had pulled pork, chopped brisket, burnt ends, collards, sweet potato fries--spectacular! read more

I've had this place bookmarked for a while and finally got to try it! Came here after visiting the new Riverfront Plaza, it was about a 5 min drive so it was a nice option for after a fun fam day at the park. It was a busy Saturday night but I think the line went by for a busy night. The process of ordering and finding a seat was easy and smooth. Servers and workers are so friendly and hard working. We sat outside. I had my puppy in his bag carrier so it was nice to have the option to bring him to a family dinner with us. Theres heated lamps outside for the cold nights. The space had a cute wall where kids and draw on. My kid had fun playing around, making friends with another kid there. Very cute. Now, onto the food! I had the regular brisket sandwich. Without sauces: 4/5 With sauces: 5/5 Flavorful, melt in your mouth, bread was nice and soft. Sweet potato waffle fries: 5/5 I love that it was salty haha King sandwich: 4/5 My husband had this and this was his rating, he said he liked that all the toppings went well together. Kids hot dog: 5/5 According to my 6 yo old she loved it lol read more

We finally ate recently at the long awaited Beared Pig restaurant. We opted for the 2 meat and 2 sides combo each and enjoyed everything on the plate. The ribs were a little tougher than I like but everything had great flavor. I love that they put the sauces on the table so you can try everything. The atmosphere is fantastic, there is a lot of patio and indoor seating with TV's all around the bar area. I had a delicious margarita and they have some yummy looking cocktails. read more

Every time I come to Jacksonville from now on I will make this my stop. The atmosphere with the bar is incredible and just fun.

For a bbq place to be so great with gluten free food is refreshing. There was plenty on the menu, lots of variety whether you like bbq sauce vinegar, northern, super spicy. The works. Staff were nice (although the one on the phone not so much). But not enough of a weird interaction to warrant a loss of any rating. Plenty of cool shirts and hats. They don't take reservations and they fill up fast on weekends! Safe for celiac disease foodies. read more

We ordered the San Marco platter for $36 and an additional side of Jalapeño poppers with 2 sweet teas for a total of $51. We were pleasantly greeted after after a brief wait in line to order. You select your own seating. We sat outside due to the amazingly mild temperatures. The San Marco platter comes with 2-3 ribs, 1/4 chicken, your choice of 2 other meats anf your choice of 2 sides. We chose brisket, sausage, slaw and sweet and sour beans. A sandwich roll comes with it and a few slices of pickle and onions. My sweet tea was good, but dont let it sit too long. Your ice will melt and make it to o much lime colored water. The slaw is a vinegar base with kale and cabbage shredded mix. It was good, but was missing the bite I was hoping for. The sweet and sour beans are best foe those with a blended palette. We appreciated them and may try to recreate them at home. Not too sweet nor too tangy(sour). Pickle slices were favorable. I only wish we had more than 3 slices. The meat all had a great smokeiness to them. The chicken leg quarter was tender and paired will the the Sweet and Tangy sauce option they provided. We had brisket that was both lean and another that had medium fattiness. Tender and savory. We had some of their mustard sauce with it. The ribs were very seasoned, fairly meaty and came clean from the bone in some parts. The thinner end of the rib was a little tough. The sausage was the star. It had an amazing smoke ring and shined all by its lonesome. The service was pleasant and attentive. The establishment was visibly very well kept. We left there thicker than a tick read more

There's both indoor and outdoor seating, but if you can snag a table outside, it's a treat. The space is decorated in orange and gray, with wooden vents, bright red umbrellas, turquoise-painted brick walls, and a playful pink pig mural that reads The Bearded Pig. TVs show sports, and there's a long rectangular bar if you'd rather sit and chat with the bartenders. The service is wonderful--friendly smiles and lightning-fast attention. As a vegetarian, my options were limited, but they do offer a veggie plate for $15 with four sides. We went with coleslaw, sweet-and-sour four-bean salad, macaroni and cheese, and sweet potato waffle fries. They'll even throw in a roll if you'd like. We also ordered the pimento cheese with saltines ($6). The portion was generous--about the size of a large ice cream scoop. I paired it with my sweet potato fries, and it was delicious. My husband and I shared, and it was more than enough for us since we're not big eaters. The staff checked in on us several times, making sure everything was just right. Overhead, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats played, setting a great vibe. Another bonus: there's plenty of free parking right behind the restaurant. Definitely worth a visit--come give it a try! read more

Ok so we stopped in for lunch while in the area. You order at the counter and then they bring it out to you. We ordered one of the platters ($36 approx) it came with 1/4 chicken, 2 ribs, 2 pieces of turkey, 2 pieces of brisket, a side (Mac and cheese) and a roll. We also got an extra side of sweet potato fries and burnt ends. All the meats were very good and well seasoned. The sweep potato fries were out of this world not sure what seasoning they had on them but WOW they were delicious. The only so so note was the Mac and cheese, not bad just average. The building itself was clean and neat, they turned over the tables quickly and checked on guests often. They could use some better signage for the building itself but that is the only knock I can give (gps took us right to it). read more

OK but overpriced, urban, astroturf and soul- less smoked meats. The restaurant has a modern, sterile, franchizeable, stainless-steel vibe that is offputting - like what a Gen Z from Vermont thinks a BBQ should be or like a McDonald's with an institutional smoker. BOTTOM LINE: Not horrible but in "noways" legitimately memorable. Wouldn't go out my way to eat there again. read more

Stopped by Bearded Pig this past weekend. They do everything Florida BBQ and they do it well. You order at the front and they bring it to you. You can sit inside or outside (where they allow dogs-huge plus for us). It's casual but clean. TVs and a great bar inside. Reasonably priced with huge portions and every single one of their sauces are home runs. The poppers are to die for. Bacon wrapped, cream cheese, crispy delicious. The pulled pork was cooked perfectly and I used their hot sauce. Great soda fountain and mixed drinks as well. Happy hours every day. Highly suggest you give them a try. They're a go to for us whenever we're in the mood for BBQ. read more

Our go to BBQ spot when traveling along the 95. Such a quick and convenient way to get tremendous bbq on our roadtrips. Why go to fast food chains when you can get some of the best bbq I've ever had. Must haves: 1. Pulled pork - we get a lb. of it 2. Beans - we get a quart. It's an absolute must 3. Mac & Cheese- creamy, delicious and very flavorful. read more

What a bummer. We got here for dinner, at 6:45, what we consider a reasonable time for dinner. Out of everything. Or should I say everything good...all ribs, Mac and cheese, potato salad, burnt ends, chicken, and brisket, GONE. I have a solution for you- make more food. Be prepared. Know it's a holiday weekend, and plan accordingly. Michelin recommended? Doubtful. read more

We are doing an A-Z series and came here for our "B"! The place was super clean and good vibes. The service was excellent. They were very inviting as soon as you walked in. We opted to sit in the dining room room however during the summertime, we will definitely sit outside. The brisket was the best I have had in Jacksonville however the rib was lacking.. had an odd taste of lighter fluid to us for some reason.

What went well?!? The fatty brisket melted in my mouth! The seasoning was perfect! Those bacon wrapped jalapeños were what I was waiting for (and burnt ends) and they did not disappoint! I need 2 orders of those just for me. Burnt ends were sold out. Service was as fast as it could be, being the line was out of the door and all bar seating and outdoor seating were occupied. It doesn't matter if you are taking to go or dining in, you get in line, get a number placard, and wait for your order number to be called or delivered to you. If you sit at the bar, it's full service, however, first come first served. Now, if you were SMART and placed an online order, YOU've BEEN HERE BEFORE and know the ropes. The locals were popping in and out like rabbits gathering their orders. And even if they really did not place an order, they were validated and accommodated. Um-kayyyy! I see yall and you better take care of your people. The ambiance was good. Full bar stacked with folks. Outdoor dining area packed. Line out the door. 30 minute wait time for bomb ass food. I waited and WAS NOT disappointed! I'll be back tomorrow for my bbq fix to take to the beach! read more

Excited to find this place for dinner with the family. Our platter had Ribs, Chicken, Pulled Pork and Brisket. We picked mac and cheese and beans as our sides. We tried all the sauces, each of us liking something different. We also ordered brussel sprouts and jalepeno poppers to start. Everything was very delicious ( except the mac and cheese) We will make a special trip here in the future. We left feeling satisfied and that our money was well spent. We sat outside with our Aussie. There is a wall where children can draw with chalk on the back side of the patio, so be sure your pet is Friendly. read more
