Southern Craft BBQ Reviews
Consistently good service and great food! They have a really nice selection of bourbons/whiskies and good bartenders. Bartenders will come to your table and ask questions sometimes to ensure they get it right. It’s not just their smoked meats that are so good either, their sides are terrific! The fried ocra is like my grandmother used to make.
My son and I love the Johnson City location. They have great food and drinks. I've had numerous items on the menu and haven't been disappointed except maybe once in over a year. But what's as good as, or better than the food, that keeps us going back are the servers/bartenders: Isaac, Lindsey, Aubrey and others. They are authentic, attentive and make you feel at home. I recommend this place to everyone I can, not only because they smoke their own meats, make their own sauces,...read full review
Hands down the best BBQ we have eaten anywhere! The whole Southern Craft BBQ (Bristol, VA) experience was top notch! Melody (one of the managers) and Josh (our server) made our first experience amazing! We would recommend this restaurant 100%! ♥️

Southern Craft BBQ is a restaurant that offers a delightful dining experience with a menu featuring a variety of meals such as sandwiches, platters, and salads, all made with high-quality ingredients. The burnt ends sandwich remains a crowd favorite, known for its great taste. Recently, the smoked chicken has received high praise for being moist with flavorful, crisp skin. Side dishes like mac and cheese, fried okra, and sweet potato casserole are highly recommended, with collards that are said to be so good they would make your tongue slap your forehead.
The staff is friendly and attentive, providing great service and helpful recommendations. One server, Ziggy, has been noted for her accommodating nature, ensuring drinks are always filled. The restaurant has a warm and relaxing atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for meetings with friends or family gatherings. The portions are generous, and the flavors are robust and satisfying.
The restaurant's butcher block, which includes a variety of meats and large sides, is a must-try for first-time visitors. The fried chicken has a little kick, making it a unique and delicious option. The cornbread skillet appetizer is a perfect combination of hushpuppy and cornbread, with sweet butter that complements it well.
Southern Craft BBQ offers a variety of sauces, some kept refrigerated, so it is recommended to ask the server for them. While fried green tomatoes and deviled eggs were not available during one visit, they are on the menu and worth trying.
Overall, Southern Craft BBQ is hands down a favorite restaurant in the Johnson City area. It offers a wide selection of delicious meals, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere, making it a great choice for both locals and out-of-town guests.
