If you go to Hog Heaven, go for the food — this is a buffet built around comfort and flavor, not fine dining frills. The moment you step up to the steam table you know the kitchen cares about classic Southern cooking done right. The selection is generous and changes enough to keep things interesting, but the real stars are the meats and the sides that were clearly made to complement them.
Pulled pork here is a standout: tender, smoky, and seasoned so that each bite has a balance of savory and slightly sweet notes. It’s moist without being greasy, and the sauce options let you dial the flavor up or down. Fried chicken is another highlight — a crisp, golden crust that gives way to juicy, well-seasoned meat. Both items taste like they were prepared with time and attention rather than rushed through a line.
The buffet’s complimentary sides are more than afterthoughts. Creamy mac and cheese, buttery mashed potatoes with gravy, tangy coleslaw, collard greens, all paired perfectly with the mains. Baked beans added texture and depth, making each plate feel complete. Service was friendly and efficient, keeping trays full and the dining area tidy.
This is a place to come hungry and leave satisfied. If your priority is hearty, well-executed Southern buffet food — especially excellent pulled pork and fried chicken with thoughtful sides — Hog Heaven delivers exactly that.

Great place! Loved the old timey feel inside and the buffet was fantastic and reasonably priced. Everything was hot and fresh

Great food. New server refused to make the four plates we asked for correctly for take out. We communicated and she did not listen. My 6 year old son ended up with a breast (asked for 2 legs), daughter ended up with white meat instead of dark. I got less chicken than asked for. Been coming here years, at least every other week, this is the only issue I've ever had with them. My suggestion is get someone who's worked there a while to make your take out plate. The other severs have always been delightful and accommodating.

2nd time here. Drove down from Southport NC. I noticed when we pulled in I had been here before. Barbecue was good. Mac n cheese was my favorite. Banana pudding was great. Fried chicken was good. Place to visit for sure. Seafood coming out looks phenomenal. Will try that next time. The oysters are coming out on huge trays. They are very popular here !!!! Happy New Year 🎉

Okay so like where do I start. This place is gross like the rice was horrific it melted in my mouth, and I don’t think rice is supposed to do that plus the chicken has NO chicken the BBQ sauce was really spicy and the peas was terrible like it was trying to be sweet but fails horribly like it was disgusting, also the squash looks like it was a sewage water. There was barely any food there.The pulled pork is slimy and felt like literal sewage, SPEAKING of sewage the bathrooms it had mold in it the toilet water is yellow, and the other toilet was orange and again there was mold on the ceiling above the toilet. The service was terrible barely talked didn’t refill my cup and the cooks were also the waiters and had NO hair net on and there was HAIR on our table and silverware! And towards the end they put all our dirty dishes in a bin which okay I understand but she then asked if she could put it next to me and before I got a chance to say anything, she put it down and started getting other people’s dishes and putting it in by the way I recommend getting the plastic silverware because We actually put the regular silverware the ones that was wrapped in the Napkins in the bin and this woman solid picked it up, wiped it off. It didn’t even do a good job because they were still stuff on it and set it aside on the table. And then, when she collected all the plates, she left the dirty silverware behind. Didn’t even put it in the bin… yall I about PUKED when I saw that The literal health department needs to come over and redo their little visit, cause they do not need to be open. That was disgusting and horrible customer service never in my life have I ever been so cheated badly by a server and that’s saying something because I’ve been to 1 star restaurants before and they were nicer, also there were flys on the food!! also don’t take your kids here it’s not worth it😊😊😊

We didn't die and go to Hog Heaven. What a disapoinment!!!! I've never been to a BBQ place that had food without some type of seasoning to give it that special taste. All the sides tasted like they were just poured out of the container. Even the fried chicken was plain with no seasoning. The pulled pork was okay. Wasn't impressed with the sauces. We just stopped in on a whim after I saw the sign and remembered it from an ad or something on Facebook. Upon entry, figured it's barbecue buffet with lots of people inside, so it had to be good: not. Had no idea of the cost. Turned out, it was appx $14/person; one really gets what one pays for. We hesitantly went for a second-plate trip hoping another sample of something would have a taste other than poured-canned food: nope! The best tasting thing I had was the Oreos and Whipped Cream desert. This was the first bbq place I left not full and satisfied. The rustic side of the road look really played a joke. Recommendations: SEASON THE FOOD and increase the temperature of the food in the buffet trays.
