We did have to wait about 30 minutes for a table at 5pm on a Saturday night and then the kitchen was backed up, so it was over an hour wait for food.

We tried a few different beers, and honestly, there wasn't a single one we didn't like! It's always a gamble trying a range, but they nailed it across the board. We also took advantage of some of the games they had available, which made it even more fun to hang out and enjoy their beer! There's also a really nice outdoor patio with tables and picnic benches, plus overhead heaters--which came in handy on a slightly chilly spring day.

There is a full bar that you can sit at and enjoy a cocktail or more and eat the best BBQ in White House. I had the wings with adding them lightly fired and the sausage. Absolutely delicious and a larger serving than I expected. I also love my sauces spicy, and the napalm sauce was not just spicy, but it actually had a tasty flavor. If you don't like things spicy, make sure you ask that no extra rub be applied to your food. My sausage had the rub sprinkled over the top, but like I said I like food spicy. If things aren't spicy enough for you, the rub is at each table, so you can add more. My wife doesn't like her food spicy at all, and the brisket and belle sauce were absolutely perfect for her. I cannot wait to eat here again. The staff is extremely helpful and attentive. We have lived in White House for 18 months now, and have had a problem finding food we like, so if you are in the same boat, give this place a try. I believe all the bad reviews are fake news or jealous competition.

Unfortunately, that was the highlight of the meal (though I will say that their potato salad was also pretty good). I went with a pulled pork plate. Dor my sides, I went with potato salad and mac and cheese. Originally, I was looking at the onion rings, but I asked if they were made in-house and the polite young man working the counter replied that all the fried food was frozen. I asked if the other stuff was made in-house and he confirmed that it was. While I waited for my food, I noticed how small the place was. Not a big deal, but I did notice. The ambiance was not bad, though. My food came out pretty quickly. The mac and cheese, supposedly made in house, tasted more like it came out of a box (like Kraft macaroni and cheese). I guess technically even if it was out of a box with dehydrated cheese and you just add milk, it is theoretically still made in-house. Basically, the mac and cheese was definitely a huge let down. The potato salad was pretty good. I enjoyed it. This was the best thing on my plate. The pulled pork was also disappointing. I have to wonder if this was bought from a food distributor. Again, the young man working here was very friendly and professional, but the food was definitely lackluster. I really cannot recommend here.

Since I ordered take-out, I can't comment on the table service. The staff was friendly and helpful navigating food allergies. I love burnt ends and was delighted to find them on the menu. I chose potato salad and fried okra as my sides. I'm picky about BBQ sauce and wasn't a huge fan of this vinegar-based one.
