This place has gotten so good! Food was great and the service was even better .. if that’s possible. My new favorite spot in town! Don’t get fast food when you can get 3 meals from one of their dinners. I already got full and this is what’s left …now my giant at home can eat too .. lol

Some of the hands down best BBQ I have ever had

I tried a few items here and most of them were pretty awful, everything is pre-made and reheated upon ordering. The chicken I got was dry and bland, the pulled pork was even worse. The brisket was the only decent thing I got. The mac and cheese was weak. Cornbread was dry and unedible

We stopped in not knowing what to expect, but much to our surprise, the food was amazing and the portions were large enough for a few meals. We will be stopping by again!

The food is even better when you sit down and get it fresh and it hasn’t made the ride home. I honestly have never seen the welcome this place has. This group of people are excited to see you walk in the door! Every dollar spent there was appreciated the moment I walked in.

Ordered for take out. Smoked bacon wrapped meatloaf, two chicken thigh, and chicken sandwich. The food was delicious, and portions were huge! This place is a little gem!💎

I've had many different types of barbecue, and this was by far the worst! No better then the Jack Daniels brisket in a package! Same thing with the ribs. Chicken is ok but nothing special. Too much sauce on everything, probably trying to compensate for the meat not having any real flavor.

Tried this place for the first time today and was not disappointed. I was informed ahead of time that a few items were unavailable, and I really appreciated how well they accommodated with substitutes. Great food, friendly staff, and top-notch service—5 stars. I will be back again.

We have lived in the area for almost 4 years and finally decided to try Backwoods Eatery for the first time. The food is amazing! We got the BBQ chicken sandwich, the smoked sausage sandwich and the backwoods chicken sandwich. They were some of the best sandwiches we’ve had in a long time. Each came with a generous helping of perfectly cooked french fries. And the coleslaw…my goodness..it’s hard to find a good coleslaw… but this one…**chefs kiss** Definitely will be back to try more items in the menu and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to get a lot of good food for a really good price!

Been to BBQ places all over New England. Great people. Pulled pork bland too much sauce. Brisket too thin and no snap..
