    A BBQ place smack dab in the middle of nowhere. They open at 11:30 and had a line at noon when we arrived. The ladies at the counter are so kind, sweet and friendly! They explained things to us as it was our first time there. The pulled pork and brisket was decent, loved the Blackberry BBQ sauce, baked beans and Mac & cheese was just meh....to be honest, we've had much better BBQ at a food truck we came upon not long ago. I will say the cornbread was phenomenal though. Not saying we wouldn't stop again if we were ever in the area but wouldn't make a special trip

    Uncle Beth's was near the Ohio caverns so we had to pay them a visit. I really lucked out because Saturday was their brisket day. They have all kinds of other options though too however. Super friendly service they had no problem telling me every sauce (I totally didn't see the sign, whoops). I ended up getting the brisket with Mac and cheese and the jalapeño corn bread pudding. The barbecue sauce I chose was recommended by the cashier it was the blackberry bbq. The jalapeño corn bread pudding was to die for, the brisket was very good as well. The only thing I wasn't a fan of shockingly was the Mac and cheese. It seemed to have an overwhelming amount of onion powder in it. Overall I am super happy we found this spot. It's not close to me but I would totally make the drive for more of that brisket and Jalapeño corn bread pudding!

    So quite an adventure thru the farm fields of middle Ohio to get to this store but was it worth it? The store is a bit of a 'hole in the wall' on the corner of a state route but as you enter, you kind of get the feel for an old bbq joint. Everything is clean and tidy. They do have outdoor seating so you might be able to bring your pup with you for lunch/dinner? First off, I was a little put back that nobody seemed to know the difference between the flat and point of the brisket but ended up with a half pound of burnt ends(appeared to be the point cubed) and the brisket(flat). The burnt ends were pretty tasty for the most part. Half of them were almost perfect. Cooked properly, nice bark and juicy. Unfortunately, some of the burnt ends were a bit touch and inedible for me. The brisket was okay, a bit dry for my palate but the bark was good. My guess would be that they have carved the entire brisket at one time and let it sit in a pan until time to serve? Who knows though, I didn't feel the need to ask the folks in the back to check out their smoker and kitchen. We got no sides, or desserts, just the brisket. The desserts did look very tasty though. Would I ever go back? Probably not, but if you're in the area, drop by and support this obviously family run store.

    We were in the area for another local attraction involving a natural geologic formation and decided we needed some food afterward. So, what app is better than Yelp for discovering those little country gems? Up pops Uncle Beth's BBQ. So we drive the few miles to get here. We pull up on this corner restaurant in the middle of rural America, and the first thing we see is the dozens of Harley's lined up out front. Already, I'm excited. I don't ride but I love bikes. Right away I feel at home in my flannel, jeans, and combat boots. We notice the line is about 20 people outside the front door to the place...they are PACKED. Now I KNOW I am at the right place. The menu is simple, in that there are a select number of items...but the big thing is, everything is made here. The sauces, the beans, the max and cheese, pulled pork, the rub for the ribs, the BBQ sauces, and the deserts. I looked at my wife and said, "If this place is as good as it smells and appears, we are going to come back again." I ordered the full rack of ribs, broccoli salad, and the slaw. For a side sauce for the ribs I ordered the blackberry bbq sauce. My hands were so messy by the end and I had a continual smile on my face. Suffice to say, we are going to come back again.

    Thursday's special: Texas Tenderloin sandwich with Mac n Cheese and spiced collar greens. Started with a potato soup. Very good. The only thing I wish is that it was smoked, not grilled. #spicemeister approved sammich.

    I was super pumped to come here after reading the reviews. We drove about an hour from our house to get here and the bbq was pretty nominal. It's a nice drive and this place is definitely in a remote location. It was nice to see the menu on the chalk board and I was excited to see that today was brisket day. I saw a carnivore platter and knew I needed it: 1/2 rack ribs (wayyyyyy over cooked and dry), pulled pork, chicken breast (also over cooked and dry), 1/4 chicken (nicely cooked), and 6 wings. $32 - I had them add a 1/2 lb of brisket and it was also over cooked and dry - not sure what the issue was today. I also got some pretty heavy attitude when I asked if the carnivore platter came with sides. She pointed to the menu item and said it was meat only - no sides. So I guess it was my fault for asking. $55 later with some mediocre sides I don't think we will be returning.

    Hoagie city makes HUGE sandwiches. But perhaps too big for their own good. The inside of the…read morerestaurant isn't much to write home about, although interestingly they also sell meats and cheese by the pound in addition to making sandwiches. The menu is fairly limited, with mostly cold sandwiches and a couple hot options. The most popular cold sandwich is the Italian and the most popular cold sandwich is the cheesesteak. I ordered the Italian and a bag of chips, no drink. They offer half (8") or full (16") sizes, and I opted for the half. The half sandwich and a bag of chips was $14. The sandwich was absolutely massive, especially for it being the half size. There was so much meat and toppings on the sandwich the hoagie wouldn't even remotely close in order to take a bite, which led me to eating it open faced like a slice of pizza. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure some people love a massive sandwich like this, but the whole point of a sandwich in my mind is to be able to eat it as intended, with the bread on either side and toppings in the middle. Since I was attempting to eat it open faced, it also became extremely messy and the mayo and oil along with other toppings was displaced everywhere. I eventually took off some of the meat to be able to eat it normally, but then the excess mayo caused all of the insides to slide out all over the place. That said, the meat and cheese tasted good, appeared to be high quality, and definitely freshly sliced. I realize I'm the minority here, and can understand why people like the sandwiches but it was just too messy for me.

The wait was ridiculously long (people that came in after me, with larger orders than mine, left before me) and the flavors weren't what they used to be. Makes me wonder if this was the case because the owner wasn't around this time.

But, no, a nice little small town diner. Nothing fancy, but comfy and clean. Lots of breakfast items, but I was too late for them. The special was shepherd's pie, which I love, so easy choice there. For lunch there are also sandwiches and salads. The shepherd's pie was like homemade, though it was less solid than some. Not a slice of a casserole, more a couple of scoops. Potatoes, sausage, cheese... Great comfort food, hot and filling and a little peppery. Sided with old-school slightly overcooked green beans, and a fresh salad (with real tomatoes, as in, probably from someone's garden.) Service was great and friendly. Prices are reasonable. It's a bit out of the way for me, but there seemed to be regulars and I hope more locals come in. For $9 for a full meal, compared to the same amount for crappy fast food, it's a deal. The name appears to be Cafe 559 now, at least on the menu and signs. There is a bar next door, so I'm guessing the restaurant closes when the bar opens? Cash only. There is a cellphone dead zone around the town, at least for Verizon, so once I got close I couldn't even use GPS. It's near the main corner.
