The food was mediocre. Home fries were hard like they were not fresh, the pulled pork and brisket were lukewarm if that. The brisket was extremely thin cut. The portions were small for the price. I’m not sure what the standards were for the “world champion bbq” but I question how this is the standard.

Just had lunch at the North Glenstone location. Excellent! The pulled pork was perfect, tender and juicy with a great flavor. Having several selections of BBQ sauce is good because everyone's idea of the best sauce varies person to person. To be honest, the sides are just as great as the barbeque meat. I had fried okra (pretty average) and potato salad (not traditional, but way above average). My husband had the cheesy corn and it was great! It's pretty sweet though, so be aware of that. We are looking forward to going back and trying the ribs!
My favorite bbq in town. Love their sauces.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Whole Hog Café with my best friend, and it was a delightful experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the perfect tone for our lunch date. The décor was charming, making it an ideal spot for catching up and enjoying each other's company.
Now, let's talk about the food! Every dish we tried was absolutely wonderful. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and it was evident that fresh ingredients were used. Whether you’re a fan of barbecue or looking for something lighter, Whole Hog Café has something for everyone. We savored each bite, and it definitely added to our overall enjoyment of the meal.
The service was friendly and attentive, which made our visit even more enjoyable. We never felt rushed, allowing us to relax and fully appreciate our time together.
Overall, Whole Hog Café is a fantastic choice for a casual lunch date with friends. Great food, perfect ambiance, and excellent service make it a spot I can't wait to revisit! Highly recommend!

The brisket was awful. Looked like it was machine cut roast beef. Straight up hospital food made for old people with false teeth.

Chase extremely good and they're quick with service
I tool my family there for dinner. They was out of ribs,chicken and almost out of brisket.Enough brisket for 1 order.So some of us had to order pulled pork or burnt ends. The meals was OK but we all was disappointed.By the way the side salad was terrible also but the dressing was great,I felt the staff taking the orders wasn`t very friendly.People told me I had to go there for great BBQ and food.In their defense it was about 7:00 but they are open until 8:00I understand being out of a item but not 3 of the best BBQ sellers.Prices was high for portion sizes I felt also.I had family and out of town guests and it was very disapointing.Over all it was a bad experience and I will not go back.After my build up to all my guest it was a big let down.

Great BBQ and friendly people!! We had the pulled pork BBQ salad. It was fabulous!! The greens were fresh and a great mix. The cherry tomatoes were sweet. The pulled pork was piled on the salad. The two meat plate with brisket and chicken was also good.

Small portions for the cost, food was cold and fries were old, like they had been sitting out for a while. Very overrated and highly disappointing.

My best bud and I met owner Charlie yesterday when we happened to have mutual friends in the same suite at the Cards game last night. Happenchance given that I mentioned trying Whole Hog for the first time yesterday afternoon. Charlie invited us over for lunch. Whole hog plate and burnt ends.
Meat is on point - ribs and burnt ends my fave. Outstanding sauce selection. ask for the volcano of you like good burn. Potato salad is best I ever had. Cheesy corn rivaled KC Jack Stack, maybe better.
Amazing place, clean, quick service, friendly, and our new friend Charlie is salt of the earth - proud to know you!
