I always love getting BBQ from PapaKayJoe’s whenever I’m visiting my hometown. The sandwich was delicious and the service was friendly and excellent.

This is hands down some of the best pulled pork I've ever had in my life. If you're passing through Centerville, come eat here.

So, we are from Forida and we ordered takeout abount a year ago. We went to pick it up and the order was all wrong. Young teens there were saying that we were wrong, were rude and unaccomodating saying that this is what we ordered. We havent been back since, nor our family. Is there any reason we should give this restaurant another chance ???

Customer service is important! The food here is fabulous. So good that we ate there AND bought some to take home for another meal. I had the Southern Way Special, which was a cornbread pancake topped with pulled pork, topped with slaw. I did the vinegar slaw rather than mayo, and it was delicious. I think the vinegar helped the meal not to feel so heavy. My husband had ribs and bbq chicken. The chicken was fine, but the ribs were fantastic - really tender with a sweet sauce. The ambiance was cute, really eclectic, and fun. The reason it didn't get 5 stars was because the girl at the register seemed to hate her job. She was really short with me, not friendly at all. If they had someone interested in offering a smiling face at the counter to give a good first impression, it would be beneficial for them.

Love this place! I drive through Centerville a few times a year and I try to stop here for their amazing food every time!
I really enjoy their Grilled Cheese with Brisket, Ribs and their sides are a great accompaniment! Fried Okra is a particular fave!
Atmosphere is warm, charming and shows off the town. Staff is friendly and attentive!

Had a terrible experience here where they marked everything a la carte, which resulted in a $60+ meal. Bbq had an awful chemical taste to it as well. Staff didn't seem to care or want to help at all. Didn't even offer buns. We had to ask for them. Absolutely anti customer. Will not return.

If you’re ever out in Centerville, Tennessee stop here!!
The wings alone make it a 5 star stop! ⭐️
Me and my colleague both had the brisket plate. He added a brisket taco and we split an order of wings.
The chicken literally slid off the bone! The dry rub made my day!
I had white beans, vinegar slaw and cornbread. He had tater salad and baked beans. I thought I was back sitting in granny’s kitchen again!
Brisket was shredded! Sauces were great! I mixed hot with sweet. Sides were delicious! Nice portions!!

The Barbecue pulled pork sandwich i had was very good! The side of baked beans and mac n cheese i got was delicious! My only issue was $4 for a side thats more like a sample. I understand everything is expensive but when did we micro size side proportions at least offer a little larger side size. Aside from that yes this place has very good food i do recommend stopping by if you want BBQ in the Centerville area.
