13 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Mechanicsburg

“Thank you for renewing my faith in PA bbq. I ordered bbq the night before from another spot in Mechanicsburg and was so disappointed, I couldn't even eat. You were right the road from my hotel, so I decided to give you a try I'm glad I did. The rub on the tender baby backs was perfect. I tried the Mango Halbanoro sauce, Damn!“

“We just left Mechanicsburg restaurant and Kiki was our server. She was an absolute blessing to us. She's very friendly and a great server. If in Mechanicsburg, please ask for Kiki. She's beautiful inside and out. Thank you fo making our visit a great one.

“10/10 great beef bbq and beans. Ty“

“Mission BBQ food never disappoints. It's fresh, well cooked and the portion size is huge! The homemade coleslaw and baked beans are delicious . The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The restaurant and restrooms are always clean and the main dining area despite how busy it is is constantly having trash picked up and tables cleaned. A great experience. We love to eat in but also have had catering from mission BBQ that has just been wonderful. Great place, great value!“

“We hired Get smok'd for our wedding.....and to say that it was great would be a drastic understatement. This man went all out. The brisket, Mac n cheese, carnitas, chicken, Street corn, green beans, and a charcuterie board...all of it was absolutely fantastic...everyone loved the food and some even went to his place the next day it was so good! Thank you again! you guys rock!“

“Great wings, friendly service.“

“Best caterer in town!“

“We wanted to support as many small, local businesses as possible during wedding planning, and we were thrilled when we found Rubbin Meats Backyard BBQ. After trying their pulled pork, I immediately asked if they catered weddings. Kevin, the owner, is incredible to work with. He truly cares and reiterated multiple times that he wanted our day to go perfectly. He is very responsive, kind, and dedicated. Everyone loved the food and we felt so happy to support a small business. If you ever need a caterer, please check them out.“

“Amazing food, great prices and awesome service. Definitely will pay another visit!“

“I’m not sure what people you have working there currently, but I suggest you hang onto them! We haven’t been there for a while because the last few times weren’t that great. However, last night ( 3/8 ) we went in for dinner. You guys were packed, but the wait wasn’t terribly long at all. I think that’s one of the best dinners we’ve ever had there. Everything was done perfectly and our waiter was awesome as well. So whatever you’re doing, keep doing it! Can’t wait to go back“

“Absolutely LOVE Lovedraft's! The food is 🤤...on another level! I don't drink much beer, but they often have some Sours on tap and I've yet to have one of those that I didn't enjoy. And with a full bar, they've got it covered for whatever your poison happens to be. The vibes in this place are incredible! Absolutely the best staff you'll ever encounter and I've never had anything but positive interactions with others when attending a show here. AND THE SHOWS!?!?!? As someone who loves Metal music, I am beyond grateful for everything that Lovedraft's has done for the Metal community in the area. I seriously never would have imagined seeing any of the bands so close to home that I have been able to see at Lovedraft's. No words could ever do good enough justice to the amount of gratitude I have for that, and for everyone who has made this happen. You've got my support for a lifetime (or at least until someone sticks me in the locked unit of a Nursing Home 😅😬...🏥🚑👵🛑🔒)! Please don't ever disappear!!!🤘🎶🩶 ...basically, if you like delicious food, awesome people, great (heavy!) live music in a unique atmosphere, and you've got an open mind/enjoy things outside the "norm," you're missing out if you haven't stopped by Lovedraft's yet. But hey, do whatever you want, it's your loss...🤷‍♀️“

“fan Fn -tastic spot. if you know you know ❤️ Love the atmosphere will be back. support local.“

“I had a really great experience with Dickies Barbecue Pit today. I was out working and making deliveries all day, and the owner happened to be receiving a delivery from me. I told him, “Man, can I get a free sample? I’ve been working all day and I’m hungry.” 😂
He was very cool about it and treated me with nothing but kindness and great customer service. The food was really good, too, and that sample definitely hit the spot!
It’s the little things that make you remember a business. The owner was friendly, the service was great, and the food was good. I really appreciate how he treated me, and I’ll definitely be stopping back at Dickies Barbecue Pit when I’m in the area. Great people and good food! 🔥
