14 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Lexington

“My husband and I finally tried Bridgett’s Kitchen yesterday for supper and it was very good. We had hesitated to go just because I’m not a big fan of BBQ. There’s so much more than bbq on the menu which was great. I had the hamburger steak with grilled onions and mushrooms, creamed potatoes and salad. It was very good. My hubby had the smoked meatloaf, baked beans and mac and cheese, again very good! Bridgette and her husband were very friendly, as well as the staff, checking on their customers in a family like atmosphere. We look forward to checking out the upcoming fall menu and plan to go back again soon.“

“I remember eating here as a child in the 70's. Then traveling from Raleigh to Charlotte for work, it was always a stop. Once a colleague said as we arrived, "this place is going to be good, it has the perfect mix of BMW's and pick up trucks." This addage still holds true today. The food was amazing as always.“

“It’s been more than 15 years since I last visited Speedy’s BBQ after moving out of the area. It’s always a bit of a question after that much time how a place holds up. So excited to see this place sticking to tradition and clearly has not floundered over the years.
This is top of the line NC pork bbq! Always has been and continues to one of my very favorite places to find this style of bbq done right.
The staff is friendly and welcoming and the service on point. It’s been redecorated some since my last visit but continues to have nice country appeal.
I had the chopped bbq sandwich with slaw. I found the best way to eat it is dump it opened onto plate and then drenched in their homemade sauce. Hit the spot!
Definitely wish I still lived closer but will always stop in when passing through.“

“I sent my son an husband to get me skins they was amazing too high in price for pork but delicious to my stomach I enjoy the skins haven't taste their food but the many people that was sitting in according to my son/ husband shows their food is great“

“Stopped in on a whim and we were pleasantly surprised. Food was delicious and staff was friendly.“

“The food is really good. Service was WONDERFUL. My tea never ran close to empty. The wait staff seemed to be on their game the entire time. Met a friend there i hadn't seen in almost a year and it was a great place to meet. Very clean and had a industrial trucker vibe. Will continue to return“

“Classic older style family Q joint. Clean, great food, decent portions, friendly laid back service. The hush puppies are tiny fun size balls and delicious. But, the dip is served warm in a small paper condiment cup. I like the bottles you can squirt or drizzle the dip onto the pups. And onto sandwich. Very hard to dip the teensy pups without immersing your fingers. That's the only thing I'd change but certainly not a show stopper. I'd recommend and would easily go again.“

“Hands down only the best BBQ and Breakfast in Davidson County . Food, service and friendliness. Joey Poole knows how to cook up the best in pit cook BBQ and breakfast.“

“The food is always fresh and delicious! The staff is exceptional. They go above and beyond to accommodate their customers. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. I love this place and highly recommend.“

“Great place, food and people ♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“Just moved to Lexington/Welcome and pass Jimmy's almost every day. Been saying I need to try that place every time I pass it. Well I just got back from an out of town job and decided tonight was the night. First of all the staff is kinda rude lol. Kidding @ Peyton if I spelt it correctly. Awesome staff all around. Got the chopped bbq platter and had Peyton pick my sides. Smoked mac and baked beans. Food is great thanks.“

“We are used to Florida style bbq that is not chopped and heavily smoked but had to try this since it’s so close to our campground. I ordered the weekend special bbq plate that had chopped pork and a drumstick/thigh piece of chicken, came with slaw and fries. Hubby got a cheeseburger and we shared a side of fried okra. Like I said it’s different than what I’m used to but still pretty good. Prices are reasonable as well and everyone was friendly. If we we’re staying longer we may have gone back but we’re leaving in the morning.“

“I love this place! We moved to NC in 2019 and I his place had been our favorite go to place since we found this gem!
One of those, everybody knows your name spots but without the bar.
Wonderful food. Wonderful people. Wonderful place all together.“
