7 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Jekyll Island

“This place needs a sign! Unless you go in the Jekyll market- you’ll miss it. Chicken tenders were a tad dry- but great flavor. Mac & cheese was a hit for my 3 year old. BBQ sauce was delish & the sweet potato fries were perfection!! Staff were friendly. They were out of the rotisserie chicken- which is was I was hoping food. Overall- would eat here again.“

“We happened here by chance and what a good one! This place is awesome. The food is delicious and more than plentiful . The staff is super friendly and attentive. I think everyone working there stopped to see if we were satisfied. Prices are great for what you get. If we pass through again, for SC, we will definitely stop back“

“Hands down best bbq in Glynn county. Thoughtful and creative dishes with solid core meats which is the whole point! For once I even complimented the Brunswick stew which is extremely hard for me as i make a phenomenal one. Staff/atmosphere are also perfect as well. Can't wait to go back.“

“Got a takeout pork sandwich and onion rings. The pork sandwich was packed with meat and flavor; the onion rings really good. My server was working in the rain. This is apparently one of the oldest restaurants in Brunswick. I'd eat there again!“

“My husband has been raving about this place since they catered for GSU a few years ago. We ended our trip to Jekyll by visiting. We got there at 11 on Sunday and a line had already formed. Which meant I was about to eat good. The food did not disappoint. We got the sampler and I loved the turkey. It was so juicy and flavorful. The brisket was amazing and the ribs were tasty. I was surprised the Brunswick stew was actually good. I usually hate it at other places. It had a tomato vinegar kind of flavor which right now is my very strong craving. I absolutely loved the vinegar based bbq sauce. Highly recommend giving them a try.“

“Definitely a dive bar but great food! We got brisket, ribs, and turkey and all 3 were very good. The onion rings tasted like a trip to the fair! The macaroni was really good too. The 2 sauce options are very hot or syrupy sweet, I wish they had another, something vinegar or more middle ground.“

“I was greeted with a smile and personally engaged, which is rare. My order was prepared quickly, brought right to me and asked genuinely if there was anything else they could do. I would eat there even without the food, which is totally 5 Star, because the staff is so friendly and efficient!“
