Update 5/4/24... It's been 2 years since my review of Shane's Chicken Shack w/sauces. Before I begin, let me say that the staff are friendly, we ordered with curbside delivery. Any issues fall on the lack of caring with ownership and if you don't know, you just don't know! Rebrand it please! I'm upset with myself on a nice cool Saturday for mistakenly trying them again. Forgetting and trying to support Spartanburg businesses I spent well over $100 to pretty much sample their menu. My review 2 years ago was spot on and it STILL is the same. What can I say about Shane's ribs...My lazy A should have fired up my smoker, at least I would have been more satisfied and saved money. The ribs are parboiled/tasteless unless you smother them with the sauces. They're tender because of the parboil, but then you lose any kind of flavor other than the pork taste that lingers. Shane, I think you and anyone else that wants to know what next level ribs taste like should go to MCCOY'S BBQ in Lymon,SC on Rt.29...The half a chicken I got was okay, McCoy's chicken is worth remembering! The pulled pork was just okay, edible, but nothing special other than the fat in it. The sides, what can I say about the sides...The FRENCH FRIES was the best of their sides and shame I didn't get more of em with my expensive meal. The fried Okra was meh and I asked to fry them hard, which they didn't do because, they taste better, but alas...No taste! They had Texas toast or rolls and I opted for rolls, but guess what? Hamburger buns are their rolls! I pretty much threw away a whole bag of hamburger buns you get at Food Lion. If you run a food business and don't have what you advertise, take it off the menu. That's a little business advice, but NOBODY'S listening because they probably make enough off the locals with no taste buds to keep the doors open. I just had a fork of their potato salad and it seemed okay, but at that point I was so food pissed that I dismissed it. My grandson of 4 years old had Chicken tenders & fries and when he doesn't eat tenders, something is wrong. My wife failed me because we were NEVER to go back there. From now on my hundreds of dollars are going to McCoy's BBQ and their Smoked Mac & Cheese is to die for! You're goin in the ground Shane, never to be exhumed!Old 2 year review! Shane's Sauce Shack should be the name. Just don't get the extra sauce that's un named...argh! The ribs are nothing special and anyone could make better backyard ribs. Spent over $50 and even tipped $7. Shane, your food for pickup has made me stop tipping. Anyplace else I'll try first before I even think about tipping again.

We visited in the afternoon and it had a nice relaxing atmosphere. The cashier was polite and helpful.I was pleased with the serving for my BBQ sandwich and enjoyed the potatoe salad! The pulled chicken was a little more chopped than shredded and would have been better with a larger serving size, but taste was great. Overall it was clean, friendly BBQ place that we will visit again to try more.

Our first time at Shane’s and everything was very good. I loaded up on sides and all were delicious. The potato salad was my favorite; the fries were also very good. The coleslaw was a bit sweet for my taste but still tasty. Our son got the grilled chicken tenders…I like that they offer a grilled option for tenders. The combo plates come with Texas toast…a nice bonus. Plenty of iced tea and soft drinks to choose from, too.
Employees are extremely rude. Service horrible, super slow getting food out. Ordered a bbq sandwich and sat forever waiting for it while 3 people behind me seemed to get all of their food. Employees just absolutely rude. Since they are one of those businesses that asks for a tip as soon as they ring you up at the register, felt obligated to tip. Wish I hadn’t. The only tip they deserve is to hire better employees

The food was good and there was a lot of it. Was disappointed the lady behind the counter was vaping. I would consider returning. It's an Ok place to get some decent BBQ.
The barbeque chicken sandwich was perfect. Pilled high with the right amount of smoke flavor was just delicious. Sweet tea is worth the trip alone. Low cost high quality.

The food is great but the prices are pretty high. To feed my family of 3, it was over $70! The food is good but not $70 good.
