Second time we've been here both returning from the shore. Forgot: Edit. VERY pet friendly. First, the service is excellent and speedy. I appreciated the selection of local beers on draft too. Found prices to be very reasonable these days. Next, the sides are out of this world. The green beans and collard greens really compete with the best Grammy homemade ones. Mac and cheese, hush puppies, and chicken tenders were on point. I thought the portion sizes were good for $3 sides. I had the ahí tacos and a side of brisket. lol. I wanted to try the brisket! The tacos has a nice flavor with an excellent sauce but the tuna was unseasoned. The biggest issue is the taco sat in juices from the toppings and became soggy quickly. A little easier on the toppings and it would be a really good dish. The brisket. Man if you hype up your bbq it better be on point. It was not. Crazy crazy dry and not really tender either. I got the flavor they intended with the oak smoke but that was really poorly cooked brisket. If you can find a good main dish everything else is lined up for a great meal. Maybe make a meal of the sides? :) read more

Service was great, we were greeted pretty quickly even though they were busy. Sat in less than 5 minutes. Our waitress checked on us in a timely manner, our cups never sat empty. The space itself gives you a family bar feeling. Looks like it would be a great locals spot. They had enough tables for any size groups and it was very clean. For appetizers we had the fried pickles and pork rinds. I'd give the fried pickles a 2/5, they had flavor but lacked crunch. The breading was missing on 80% of the pickle. The pork rinds, FRIEND, those were probably the highlight of my meal. The sizzle and pop, the crunch, flavor...I'm drooling just thinking about them again. I don't think I can ever have them from a bag again. 5/5 Main Coarse we ordered the mac-n-skilled with pulled pork, the kids chicken taco with tots, brisket stuff shells, and brisket Philly cheesesteak with a side of hush puppies. Mac-n-skillet, the meat was a tad bit dry but had a good amount of cheese. Creamy. Only downside was the pork. 3.5/5. The Brisket Philly was cheesy, meat was good, great flavor just a bit too greasy. Hush puppies were good, nothing stood out in particular. 4/5. The kids chicken taco and tots were ok. Not enough cheese and the tortilla was hard, tots were just right. 3.5/5. The brisket stuffed shells were unique, loved the flavor just a bit too much cheese to meat ratio for me personally. The brisket was cooked perfectly. Would order again. 5/5 We were in and out in less than an hour. We were never rushed and the atmosphere was warm. The prices are reasonable as well. read more

Service was prompt. Prices seem a bit high but you can watch for specials. Ribs there are good.

We literally plan our mountain vacations around stopping in Waynesboro to eat here! The food is perfect every single time. Their brisket is the best, the wings are great, hush puppies are yummy - we've never had anything from here we didn't love. And every server has been fantastic! Clean and organized inside with a rustic farm aesthetic, and the live music outside is always fun to listen to. Can't wait to come back! read more

Gluten free options! The staff was being kinda loud about a boy. The tables weren't being leaned u til someone came in and needed to be seated. read more

What can I say about this place? If you like BBQ and Fried fish this is the place for you. The food is cheap and pretty good. Not my favorite BBQ in the world and definitely not as good as the first time I went. But shockingly the fried fish was quite tasty. Oddly enough I may even have to recommend that. The ambiance of this place is like a good ole redneck sports bar. Service is above average if not excellent. Waiter was quite friendly yet unspectacular. If I were in Waynesboro I'd consider this to be a top 5 ish spot on the area. Would recommend. read more

I've tried the catfish which is by far the best I have ever had! Also the Shrimp tacos, which even tho I try to get something else I always seem to get the shrimp taco. After 8 yrs of living in the area, we've never have had a bad meal here. My husband gets a variety of selections on the menu. He too has never had anything that was not goood. read more

Second time here and had the BBQ brisket sandwich, it was so tender and good! The bang bang shrimp was equally delicious. This place is really busy at nights and has a large outdoor area attached with plenty of seating inside and out. You can tell the locals love this place and it can get pretty loud even during lunch around the large bar area right in the middle of the main room. Always have had a good meal here, and wanted to stop by again since the server was so pleasant the last time. She made us feel at home with her personality, service is such an important asset that one will remember, it brought us back from afar. Employees are the face of the restaurant and I believe it is imperative to have the best well trained crew to represent a great experience! Overall, The Fishin Pig is definitely going to be a top choice, If I am ever in that area again. read more

Was disappointed in this place. My companions both got pulled pork and Mac and cheese. Both meals were over cooked and dry. I got fish tacos, Jalapeno cornbread, and coleslaw. The cornbread was great. The tacos and slaw were under seasoned. My beer was delicious-Devils Backbone knows what they are doing in their brewery. Our server was supremely awesome. He made the visit worthwhile. Was way too loud inside and you could not hear the person next to you. read more

Good food! Good Service! Good Cold Beer and cool atmosphere! Definitely recommended and look forward to returning!

Great fried catfish. The atmosphere is casual. Food is Fair priced. Friendly staff, good service.

The absolute worst brisket I have ever tasted. The service was wonderful. Ariel (our waitress was so professional and thoughtful). We were there for a late lunch (2 pm), I am going to say some of it was the fault of the timing...but really... read more

Great food with great services. Their jalapeño cornbread and collard greens are musts to go along with the bbq.

Terrific door. Wings and fried catfish were incredible. Ariel the server was wonderful. Wish it was closer to home

I was excited to try this place for the catfish after getting a recommendation from a friend but I was a little disappointed with the catfish itself. The bang bang shrimp was absolutely delicious and the rest of the food was decent. It was extremely busy, which was a good sign but there was only one waitress there to serve everyone since apparently some folks had called out. Surprisingly, the waitress did well handling the large amount of customers as we didn't have to wait too long for our food. I'd like to go back and give the catfish another try. Next time perhaps. read more

We stopped in on July 27 for lunch. The BBQ was watered down no taste. Everything lacked flavor. I felt like the BBQ was left over from a previous day and steamed. Not what I was expecting. I would have rather gone to Cracker Barrell. Service was average, read more

Love the barbecue and the draft beers. Sit at the bar in the back (Short Pump location) and enjoy the lively surroundings. Service is fantastic at the bar or at the tables. Choice of sauces also helps with eating the barbecue and trying all flavors. Love the brisket and the pulled pork the best. read more

The Fishin' Pig catered for our wedding and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out! Steve and his staff did a wonderful job helping make our day so memorable. They were professional, accommodating, and made sure everything came together seamlessly. The food was also great and we received so many compliments from our guests. We are so grateful to The Fishin' Pig team for helping make our wedding such a special day and would absolutely recommend them for weddings or events! read more

This is a great place to dine in Waynesboro.. This is a cool bbq place. The interior has a great theme. The staff was super friendly - Britt is a Rockstar waitress. It was a toss-up between the catfish or brisket... I picked the brisket with beans and Mac and cheese. The brisket was good - the beans were awesome - the mac and cheese was good. The Texas and Carolina sauces were very Virginia versions - which was my only complaint. I really enjoyed this place. read more

The service was amazing from both the register and the waiter, the food was pretty good, not too shabby considering the food didn't really taste southern, the vibe felt more like a log cabin with fairy lights and outdoor seating for parties and hangouts read more

I got the pork and catfish platter. It came with Cole slaw, pork, fried fish, and a side of mac n cheese. This was absolutely amazing. Some of the best Mac n cheese I have ever tasted. The fish was fried perfectly and remained flaky. The pork was also really flavorful and was great with the the Carolina vinegar bbq and sweet bbq. Cole slaw was also really good. This meal was about $17. Overall one of the best bbq places I've been to. Definitely check this place out. Food: 9.0 Staff/service: 8 Overall: 8.8/10 read more

Had lunch there today and could not eat everything. Our server, Ariel was delightful, and really made our experience. Nice to do business with someone that really takes pride in their work! Highly recommend this restaurant just based on the service!!! read more

Everything seemed off to us. First we felt a little forgotten when we first got there. Only got one refill which for me is no bueno. I ordered the half rack of ribs. I'm wondering why people don't season their food in Virginia. The ribs were plain tasting as could be. Not even smoky or charred like good bbq should be. It was trendy but plain which means you have to use the Sauces. The Mac and cheese is supposed to be exceptional that was not the case. The noodles were overcooked and mushy. The flavor was ok but again no seasoning. It was disappointing for the cost. read more

Though our server was excellent... delightful and attentive... servers can't compensate for the food, which was just meh. If you like a loud atmosphere with greasy pub food, go here. Expect to use a lot of napkins to layer the fried green tomatoes in between to soak up the grease but do it quickly before they cool. This is a paper plate place with lots of napkins. Lots of kids and families. Lots of noise. Nice and close if you are staying at the hotel next door. read more

We had lunch with pulled pork, fries, beans, and Mac & cheese. All were great. Our service with Brittany was delightful. We also liked catching up on some sports since we were just getting off the Appalachian Trail. Great experience. Try these folks out!!! read more

The Fishin' Pig is a comfortable and fun place to visit, lively with a good menu. I had the broiled pollack. That might seem boring but the fish had a tasty seasoning and I enjoyed every bite. I also got some fresh green beans, properly cooked, and some slaw that was lightly sweetened and with the right and light amount of sauce. I even tried a luscious hush puppy bursting with a savory corn meal flavor. The server was helpful on a busy night. read more

Great find just off the interstate! Quick service and tasty food with plenty of choices from catfish tacos to every kind of bbq meat. My daughter recommends the andouille sausage Mac and cheese skillet and I say go for the broiled catfish tacos. Hush puppy basket was good but small pups. Service was great (Thanks Shannon!). Decent prices for amount of food you get. read more

Catchy name, that reeled me in. Rooting for some grub on a trip, I'm sure I could dig something up here. The barn feel of the dining room was comforting large relevant black and white photos on the walls. Free-roaming between the stalls and table was easy as pie. Jamie conveniently jotted his name on the butcher paper table covering. He knew the lay of the land on the menu and quick keep the ST Half/Half flowing. From bussers, to host team and wait staff, they all had a git'r done urgency to everything, but gave the guests all time they needed to say their say. At first brisket shells sounded interesting, but as an entree today, I wanted more variety this first go'round. So did the Crab Dip special, but I went with the sampler to get the lay of the land. Puppies were light, fully cooked and has a crispy crust! Fried cat fish was thankfully light on coating, but had lots of crunch and tender fish. Use the Carolina cigar based sauce as the malt vinegar stand in. Both shrimps were good. The bang-bang didn't need sauce. And, the 'slaw is great! Never got to the Jack Rabbit Salad never got touched, cuz I ordered with my eyes and ordered what I saw (see-food). Good Eats for the hungry! read more

If you like your food cold and spend over 125.00 for dinner for 3 . Worst food I have had in this restaurant in 9 year. Cold racks of ribs and send back and get luke warm ones. And then when you come in you and met by the Nastiest and Ruddiest Hostesses. Save your money and go to McDonalds at least the food is hot. read more

Fun place, great food, excellent service. Pork rinds are a must try. Loved the fried green tomatoes. read more

We were traveling and saw this by our hotel and decided to try a local restaurant. We went in and only waited about 5-10 minutes for a table. It's casual and our server was super nice and informative. The pork skins were so good! Hot and still popping when we were crunching on them! Food was large portions! So you better be hungry! The pork was tasty, moist and smoked really well and sauces on the table to choose from. My catfish and hubs was really good and we liked the batter they use. My macaroni and cheese was one of the best I've ever eaten, next to my own! But def give this place a try and some love! If we are ever back up that way we def will be back! read more

Service was attentive. Food was good and ample portions were served. Mya was knowledgeable and friendly but didn't hover. Catfish was fresh and well seasoned.

Absolutely everything about this place was awesome. Matt was our server and was absolutely awesome, friendly, considerate and great conversation. The food itself was amazing, ordered wings that couldn't have been better and a bbq sandwich that was amazing. The food came out in 6 minutes (record timing) and was clearly fresh. I got fries as my side and they were seasoned perfectly. The ambience is a 2/5 fancy, very relaxed with a bar and a great view of the mountains outside. read more
