Sadly my experience can be summed up in one word:
Disappointing
Had the chicken and rib plate with Mac and cheese and cornbread. The ribs quite honestly tasted like they were cooked two to three days ago and reheated for my order. This can only be surpassed by the cornbread in which was as stale, dry and cold as you would imagine a used and dry sponge would taste like. The Mac and cheese was fine. Nothing to write home about but at least was edible. The chicken was probably the best of everything. Unfortunately the bar was extremely low so that isn’t saying much. If it weren’t for the sauce there would absolutely be no taste to the chicken. There is such a thing as seasoning.
Maybe I was just unlucky in my visit but if this was is to be expected I would recommend going somewhere else.

Bit of a wait but well worth it. These boys are cranking out maple hardwood smoked meats that are delicious. Just follow your nose. Great value for lunch specials.

I just gotta say as someone who grew up in Ontario with "Ribfest" every summer, this is some of the best damn BBQ i've ever had. Meat is always perfectly cooked, always care for the order, no matter BBQ out east, I'd recommend to anyone who came out here.

Restaurant was cute, and small; picnic tables to sit at. Not the cleanest, the garbage bins and rest rooms could've used a clean. Food was mediocre (I ordered the pulled pork sandwich) which was not good. The bottom bun was SATURATED in grease - my sandwich fell apart and my hands dripped with grease. Aside the fries, I wouldn't return based on my sandwich; my partner got the brisket and enjoyed it though. I'd rather make my own sandwich at home, or go elsewhere.

We tried here for lunch and found the food to be just average and portions slightly small. We found the server to be distracted And disinterested. This is not a place that we would go back to.

The brisket/fries were alright but I would avoid the Mac and cheese. It’s not “Mac and cheese”, it’s large penne noodles topped with a few bread crumbs. Also, they do not have mustard and charged for the bbq sauce. It’s a bbq place, it should be on the tables with the food

Crowded as was busy, took 45 minutes to get food, brisket was dry, ribs were better but hard. Sides had good flavor.
