    Enclosed patio area

    We had a decent lunch at Willey's in the off -season -maybe 3.5 stars but I rounded down. I got the pork sandwich, which was fine but nothing special. My husband got the burger which he said was also fine. Very limited beer selection. They have a new covered/enclosed patio area which was pleasant and our waitress was very friendly.

    The food was divine! My children got cheeseburgers and I got wings. Everything was delicious and the portions were big. We enjoyed the country aesthetic and eating on the screened in porch. The waitress was great. We will be going back here during our next visit!

    Friendly staff and savory barbecue sandwich. Very convenient location and highly recommend the hush puppies too. For the barbecue we had both the NC vinegar and mild sauce, two of them pair well together with the sandwich.

    I visited Willey's over the weekend after spending the day at Colonial Beach. I attempted to order steamed shrimp but was informed they were they were out. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with fries instead. I was then told that there were no fries. I agreed. I approach the window about 10-15 minutes later to inquire about my order. I saw 3 orders of food sitting with the lids open and flies sitting on top of the food. I then witness another customer order his food. He ordered fries without a problem. I politely asked this much older woman if fries were available because I was told that they were not. She immediately got defensive and said "no! Those shouldn't have even been sold!". I suggested for her to change the menu to reflect available items. She began to yell at me as if I were not a paying customer. she had the nerve to say "I'm not going to argue with you!" As if she were too good to have a conversation with me. I kindly asked for a refund because this is no way to treat anyone. The decrepit woman then proceeds to yell "give her a refund!" I chose to go to this establishment despite it being dingy and dusty because there weren't many options. I guess they must be doing so well that they need my money. I honestly feel this was racially motivated and would not recommend Willey's at Colonial Beach to anyone. As long as this old hag is behind the counter and on the grill they will never succeed.

    A few years back Willey's BBQ was open on the outskirts of Colonial Beach, VA (Ridge Road). Then despite many many very sad customers Willey's shut it's doors and the best Pulled Pork in america could no longer be eaten. Well like the second coming Willey's has once again opened it's doors on "the boardwalk" at 101 Taylor street in downtown Colonial Beach Va.The new place is a walk up window right next to the Potomac river! Willey's is once again selling all their classics. Amazing Carolina Style Pulled Pork, Ribs, Chicken, The best Hush Puppies and more. Willey's BBQ is honestly what I base all other BBQ's in America on. I have been to so many BBQ places and none compare to Willey's. They are the bench mark for good BBQ. Overall if you are looking for the best food on the northern neck look no further than Willey's BBQ! Welcome Back Willey's! Amazing BBQ once again exists!

    AMAZING!!! It was our first time coming down to colonial beach and we realized that there wasn't many food places to choose from. I looked on yelp and we decided to go with this place because of the reviews and they were not wrong!! The bbq was really good and OMG!!! The hush puppies are huge! And obviously homemade! We will definitely be back here again!

    Wild Waylon's BBQ - Single Beef Rib

    As someone who's been smoking brisket, pork butts, and ribs for 7+ years, I don't hand out BBQ…read morepraise lightly. I judge every spot against what I'm putting out at home... and a lot of places fall short -- whether it's weak seasoning, lack of smoke, or just flat-out underwhelming flavor. But Wild Waylon's BBQ? Yeah... this place is LEGIT. We went all in: pulled pork, brisket, and the big dino beef ribs -- plus mac and cheese, green beans, a bacon-wrapped jalapeño popper, and the jalapeño cornbread. Every single thing delivered. The brisket had great flavor and was cooked right, the pulled pork was juicy and well-seasoned, and those beef ribs... absolute showstopper. Big, meaty, packed with flavor, and done exactly how you'd want them. Sides were just as solid. The mac and cheese was rich and satisfying, green beans had great flavor, and that bacon-wrapped jalapeño popper + jalapeño cornbread combo? Yeah... ridiculous in the best way. And the smoke -- you can actually taste it. That alone separates them from a lot of spots. The whole experience was on point too. The big pit out front lets you know immediately they're serious about their craft, and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful the entire time. Prices are also very reasonable for the quality you're getting. This is one of the few places I've been where I walk away thinking, "yeah... they're doing it right." If you're anywhere near Fredericksburg -- or even just passing through -- this spot is absolutely worth the stop.

    Oh, my, law. Run, don't walk, here on the weekends. Why? Because they only do their beef ribs on…read moreSat/Sun and IT IS SO WORTH IT. Also, the owner is amazing. He was delightful to talk to about the menu and honestly gave such a great vibe to the eatery. Before today is say we haven't been all that impressed with BBQ options on the east coast. There's one other place that was alright but Wild Waylon's BBQ knocks it out of the park. And if I'm being frank, Wild Waylon's is better than some BBQ joints I've been to in Texas. We will have to make the trek out here again, and this time with friends, to enjoy one of the best restaurants in VA. What we got: Jalapeno pepper poppers - 5* what a delicious side! Until today is yet to meet a restaurant that made a better jalapeno popper than myself. Wild Waylon's has officially won the unofficial competition. I will be putting rubs on my bacon henceforth and hopefully will be able to reclaim my honor. Do yourself a solid and order this side. Beef rib - 5* my partner missed my face when I took my first bite and that's probably a good thing. This was the highlight of the meats Wild Waylon has to offer. If I remember correctly it's smoked for 24 hrs and boy does it shine! The meat literally fell off the bone when I picked it up for my first bite but that didn't stop me from diving in with my fingers. This one does not need any sauces, it's flavour is strong and good. Baby back ribs - 3.5* honestly, probably closer to 4 but when compared to the beef rib no other rib can compare! What I loved about this one was the crispy-ness on the underside of the rib and dipping this one in the various homemade sauces that are available in store. Pork Belly - 3.5* we tried a slice but saved the rest for leftovers. It was good and even better dipped in a sauce. I really liked the texture and am looking forward to eating the leftovers. Much like the ribs I think I am having a hard time judging this one without comparing it to the beef rib. Brisket - 3.5* we tried a slice but saved the rest for leftovers. It was decent and kind of melted in the mouth. There's probably a little room for improvement with this particular dish but it's also a good one to let the sauces shine. Baked beans - 5* woooah, these are fantastic beans! Coleslaw - 3* decent coleslaw. It wasn't anything amazing but we appreciated having it as a palate cleanser between meats and spicy sauces. Pickled jalapenos and onions - 3.5* this is spicy and delicious!

When it's nice outside they have several picnic tables to sit at and eat. The pulled pork sandwich with Cole slaw is my favorite. They give a nice portion of meat on the sandwich. They have a good bbq sauce that goes well on it. The minced beef was not my cup of tea so I wouldn't order it again. The ribs are just ok. They use St. Louis style and precut them by the bone for you. It's a toss up when you get fall off the bone or rip off with your teeth. Most often it's tough and have to tear into it. They had baby back one time and I really enjoyed that. I think that should be the staple instead. I tried the catfish one time and was pleasantly surprised how good it was. Definitely want to try it as a sandwich at some point. The fries are not cheap but the large is a lot of fries. I think their baked beans are the best in the area. The Mac and cheese is okay and did not care for the collard greens. Overall not a bad place and definitely better than most in the area. Still only go for a treat but I do come back.
