Skip the burger. Onion rings were great. Ambiance inside is good, but the dumpster location and terrible smells pretty much ruins that going out. Good service and friendly. We enjoyed stopping here, but smell was pretty overpowering outside. Make sure you park away from the creek side! read more

I highly recommend the pork butt! Delicious every time! I have eaten most things on menu and it is all good! Love the fried okra!

nachos were so good everthing was so good loved this place great family dinner so good

This was my first time eating here. Come for lunch with a friend who recommended it. I had the pork plate with baked beans, mac & cheese, onion rings and a banana pudding. The portions were decent size (larger then most chains) and everything was hot & fresh. I had to bring the banana pudding home to eat later. The service was very friendly and fast. The prices are on par with other bbq joints. It is a small place with limited seating but it's clean and an overall pleasent experience. I will definately go back and highly recommend it. read more

Our favorite place for barbeque. Always delicious and their Brunswick Stew is a family favorite. Also, great service.

Drove out of my way to try this place based on the Yelp reviews. Unfortunately, it was mostly a waste of my gas and my time. I'll start with the good points - fries, okra, and onion rings - while nothing more than your standard previously frozen and then deep fried bbq joint staples - were served hot and fresh and actually quite delicious. For the "needs improvement" points: 1) although I was the only person in line to order, I waited 8-10 minutes to even be acknowledged while one of the cashiers counted money. One of the other cashiers finally asked if I'd been helped, which I hadn't been. 2) began placing my order for three chopped pork sandwiches, but..."we don't have anymore pork - smoker is broken". 3) ordered three chopped brisket sandwiches instead. All three arrived sliced and untrimmed, with LOTS of fat. 4) sent the sandwich back to be chopped. Upon returning them to our table, no apology or acknowledgment of the error. 5) the beef had no bark and no smoke flavor. Overall, it seemed there was general lack of accountability from staff and a lack of any management presence. I've been waiting quite a while to give this one a try, so I was quite disappointed with the experience. I sure hope the owners will take the feedback and effect some positive change. There's nothing better than good, small town BBQ and this place has a lot of promise! Back to Fat Man's... read more

Follow up on last review. Hubby had barbq sandwich and fries. I had catfish sandwich and fried okra. Both of us ended up with slight tummy distress. Cafe needs to ensure proper temps for all food and proper drink dispenser cleaning. Not sure if Columbisna read more

Was coming through town with family and found it by using Yelp. Kinda a small dinning room with out side seating. Staff was very friendly. They are a good wait but that to be expected for fresh made food. For a family of 2 and 1 kid price was about $33. Got kids grill cheese, Buffalo chicken Mac N cheese, and full brisket nachos. All was great, the nachos was very different won't be my every day order but would order again. There about 8 tables inside to eat and seen outdoor seating but did not see how many tables Beef Brisket read more

Change the buns on the burgers. They go flat. Awesome food and Service. Barbecue sauce is good. I would change the potato salad. Too fake. like Straton's potato salad you buy in the grocery store. Baked beans are really sweet. But good. Coleslaw needs to be sweetened. Pork sandwich's, ribs, chicken fingers, hamburgers, other food items are worth trying. But I would change some of the side items. Improve them. Fresh real fries, homemade potato salad? All in all servings are big, food is yummy. Go visit Tin Top. read more

Food is top notch. A good solid meat and 3. We both had grilled pork chop and a side salad - he had fried okra and potato salad. I had Mac and cheese and collards. Also served with two large and thick pieces of white bread. We were both satisfied with our meals and wrapped up what we couldn't finish to take home! What to expect: there are no waitstaff - you pick up your own paper menu when you walk in and go to counter to place your order. They give you a number so they can bring your food to your table. They provide the cups so you can get your own drink, and the tableware is plastic and included inside the "to go box" your meal is served in even though you are eating in. (Maybe they know everyone is taking home leftovers if there are any.) Recap: No frills, but the food is worth it. 2 thumbs up. read more

Tin Top is a tiny restaurant with a walkup window or you can order at the counter when you walk in. There were a ton of choices. We ordered 3 bbq sandwiches. The large was huge. Should have ordered the small. The small special was $7.50 for sandwich, chips and drink. The large was 10.50 for sandwich drink and 1 side. The sandwich comes prepares with a tasty sauce and pickles. We also ordered the appetizer of fried pickles. It was a large basket full of yummy fried goodness. I had a side of baked beans. I did not eat them, I prefer a sweet baked bean. We sat outside in the little courtyard because the weather was perfect. read more

I wish there was 10 option on Yelp. This place is that awesome!! Once again I found a place that's the best in the world!!!! Some local guys inside suggested the nachos (which isn't what I wanted to order) so I ordered that w/ brisket and wowzers!!!! I was shocked how awesome it was. And the service from all the workers was wonderful too they made everyone feel great. I will def stop by this place if I'm ever close to it again. read more

The food was great. My husband and I both got the special which was a pork sandwich, chips, and a drink for $7.00. Tender meat with a great taste. Friendly staff and we were able to get the food quickly. The dining area was clean and free of clutter. I would recommend this BBQ restaurant. read more

A little pricey but food is great! Best baked beans and smoked brisket you will find anywhere! read more

Roadside in a gravel lot, with smoke filling the air, stands a joint that looks like an embodiment of American countryside. It's real, it's unpretentious and it's popular. As one steps inside, the wooden walls seem to create a sense of cozyness and comfort, with a menu that can satisfy any BBQ lover. Let's start with the main thing that any self proclaimed BBQ lover gets, it's the ribs. They are soft and flavorful from the smoke, with portions crossing into a territory of being able satisfy multiple people. Some of the ribs were a bit on the burnt side and the skin was tough, but still good. Can't say they are the best, but solid. The Mac and cheese was not something to brag about, very generic cheese with that pre-packed kraft-y flavor to them. The potato salad was wonderful. Patrons here are mostly local folks, coming to enjoy a delicious meal and share a few laughs. There is even a pretty good patio outback. If looking for the place where most of the town goes to eat, this is the spot to go. Is it the best BBQ in Alabama? Well, I'd leave that debate to be had over some moonshine later. read more

Real good sliced BBQ sandwich. Very disappointed when they discontinued serving their excellent country breakfast. I've heard The Weeknd Steak are excellent . read more

Great little hole-in-the-wall bbq joint. I am not a huge fan of the brisket, but everything else has been excellent.

Awesome slab of ribs! Very sweet, and helpful when I was placing my order at the counter! Love this place! Maybe Valentine's Day should be celebrated here?!?!?! read more

Great barbeque sandwich!!! The employees are friendly. I am so glad we found this gem.

Wow! I was traveling through on a business trip and a coworker recommended Tin Top BBQ. This lunch was beyond great. I got the large BBQ pork plate with okra & fries. Everything was hot and delicious. If you do not come here you are missing out! read more

Excellent steak fries! Easy going, good food! My Uncle treated me, and it was quick, good, and I enjoyed the experience. Will return, and liked the choices of outdoor seating, tv's, and service was great! read more

Just great food always hot never had a bad meal love the ribs and the bbq sandwich and they really know what outside chopped is

Best food! Best service! Love the Jamaican Jerk Wings! They also catered our rehearsal dinner, everyone loved the food!

Overpriced and not very authentic. The green beans were just like what you get at a gas station or grocery store... Like they dumped a can into a warmer. Fried okra was soggy. I got the brisket and it was thinly sliced sandwich meat. Literally no texture it has to be processed luncheon meat? The locals in Columbiana rave about this place, I actually feel sorry for them that apparently they don't know any better. I won't return. Sorry read more

We did takeout and it was ready as advertised but when we got home the potato salad was missing. Not charged for it so must have not heard me order it. Ribs were tasty and smoky - maybe too smoky. Pulled pork sandwich was good but tasted smoky and a bit like brisket. Catfish sandwich was great. Will try again read more

They are so good!!! Clean neat and customer oriented. I love everything they serve. They have specials everyday....

Best BBQ in Shelby County as well as plenty of other great options all at good prices. Outdoor seating as well.

Tin Top BBQ 2 - Very Good Cheese Burger - Barbeque Near Me - Columbiana, Alabama

Barbecue nachos with jalapeños are on my favorite list. Their service is unique but enjoyable. Good atmosphere.

This was our first visit but it will not be out last. BBQ pork and sides were excellent. Eggnog pie is to die for!

Their bbq is tolerable. Their catfish is pretty good. After hearing their hamburgers were good, I tried a large burger today. yuk. The meat had been cooked previously and reheated, a dry hockey puck. The bun was right out of the bag, neither toasted, grilled or warmed. Do yourself a favor, feed your burger craving elsewhere...any where else. read more

We came by tonight and ordered 2 hamburger steaks. We got them in 5 minutes and I know why. They were the worst that we have ever ate. My wife and I couldn't even finish them. I don't know what kind of meat it was but it didn't taste like any hamburger steak that I've ever ate. I don't recommend them. We probably will not be back to this location again. Stay with the BBQ and salads. read more

Great for the price. Good people. I got a lot of food for the price, it could have been warmer, but I will go again.

Food was excellent as was the meal I had catered the cost was inexpensive also my guest loved the meal and the banana pudding was a huge hit

Really delicious food has something for everyone so good best barbecue place ever! I definitely recommend

Great food and always pleasant service! We usually eat here at least once a week! Tin top is the best!
