13 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Bird In Hand

“Good food, the sandwiches are huge. I do wish they had more BBQ sides… baked beans, Mac n cheese, etc and more BBQ entree options in general. Staff very friendly.“

“My husband and I ate here yesterday for the first time! Hands down the best burger I’ve ever had! I had the glazed donut burger & my husband had the PB&J burger with bacon! The owners were so friendly and welcoming, we will definitely be back! Thanks again for a great lunch!“

“We recently hired Hen House to cater a party and what a smart decision that was! Their food was excellent, the guests could not get enough. If you are looking to hire a food truck for any occasion, do yourself a favor and call Hen House Grilling & BBQ“

“Amazing location, my wife got the pulled pork with beans and mac n cheese. I got a sampler with pulled pork, brisket, turkey and sausage along with beans and Mac n cheese and cornbread. It was all amazing! If there was a weak spot in any of it (and there wasn’t) - I would say the turkey could have been a tad moister. Portion sizes are way off the charts - I’ll get 3 meals out of the sampler I bought and my wife at least 2 out of hers. If this place hasn’t been on DDD yet it ought to be! Oh a bonus is that it’s literally off the wert - so you can ride your bike there and enjoy the ride as you look forward to a fantastic meal!“

“Best Competition style bbq ????“

“We were at the Ballon Festival in Lancaster PA. I just wanted to give them a shout out. Their brisket sandwich was amazing. We also ate the potato salad, coldslaw and the mac and cheese. I was so full from the portion on our platter but, it definitely made me want more. I wish you had a restaurant. I'm confident you would be successful. Thank you again.“

“Head manager we love your establishment but seriously experienced the worst service! We waited over a half an hour for our food to find after I ask for them to check on our food that they burnt my wife’s steak and made her another one my meal when brought out must of been reheated twice and burnt!!!! So disgusting! Why would a manager send food out looking that bad???? We will have to find another steak house that cares about their customers“

“Very interesting. My partner & I came here for drinks & dinner on a Saturday evening. When we showed up, the door appeared to be locked. We probably would have left except the pub was clearly open, and some people were on their way out so we were able to get in. Once we got inside, it was very unclear where to go or what to do. There's no hostess, wait staff, or signage, so we ended up asking the guy at the food stand what to do. Felt weird to be asking a contracted food service worker where to sit.As other reviews mention, you order your food & drinks at each stand. Since we planned to go dutch, we needed to take turns ordering food. Again, weird for a date. However, the sushi and drinks were delicious. The wings were interesting - it was hard to get service at that stand, but they had a variety of flavors and it tasted good.As far as atmosphere goes, architecture and decor wasn't horrible. The bar was laid out beautifully. However, the music was fascinating. I know we're in Pennsyltucky, but country? Not what I expected from a Dave & Busters-meets-speakeasy pub. The shuffleboard thing was placed in the middle of a hallway, so you had to navigate around the adult birthday party who used it all evening. A grandma was showing her preschool-aged grandchild how to play the slots. There were also some other patrons who clearly had too much to drink to control their volume, or stop rude thoughts from exiting their mouth. Thankfully, they left shortly after we arrived.Since Ephrata has made improvements in the last 10 years and Doneckers was historically a nice location, I was hoping that this would be a nice, classy, fun night out with my person. We'll probably go back because the sushi and drinks were really good and reasonably priced, but we plan to sit elsewhere and ignore the other patrons as much as possible. Hopefully we can open the door without any problems next time.“

“Great service, great atmosphere food was good but very over-salted“
