First visit today and definitely will not be the last here! Service was incredible, everybody was super friendly and welcoming! Extra patient with me as I’m from the UK - the food was incredible, nachos were piled high with goodies and not one was soggy! The trio sampler platter could easily feed 3 instead of 2 due to the quantity of the meat! The quality is incredible and there is a lot to choose from on the menu! The blackberry cobbler was incredible - highly recommend!!
Can’t wait to come back again - the decor alone was also so incredible to look at - never mind all the good food! Thank you again guys!

Super nice folks, quick service on a busy night. Potentially the best fried green tomatoes I've ever had. Crispy, thin sliced. Great. Wish they had a more creative dipping sauce than buffalo ranch. But the buffalo ranch itself was very good. The brisket was a bit of a let down. Mac and cheese is good and gooey. Tasty sauces, hot bq sauce bottle on the table. I'll get pork next time. But there will def be a next time!

Collin’s BBQ is hands down the best BBQ I’ve ever had! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with true southern hospitality—Jim made us feel right at home, and his kindness left a lasting impression.
I ordered the sliced brisket, fried okra, and the loaded potato salad (which was absolutely to die for). Everything was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. My boyfriend had the Cuban sandwich, and it left him completely speechless—it was that good! He wasn’t the biggest fan of the coleslaw, but the cornbread more than made up for it—soft, buttery, and a true taste of the South.
If you’re anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and stop at Collin’s BBQ. Between the incredible food and the warm hospitality, it’s an experience you won’t forget!

Collin’s River is a great place to enjoy great bbq and beer. The staff is exceptional even when they are super busy. Our favorite spot to eat in McMinnville!

Friendly top notch service. Brought beer samples for beer choices. Loved the fried okra. We thought award winning white bbq sauce. After inquiry- owner sent me a photo of white bbq sauce recipe! Tennessee hospitality at its best!
Was recently there for dinner, there were at least thirty of us and we reserved the upstairs dining area - catered with a tray of pulled pork, tray of chicken tenders, mac-n-cheese, baked beans, potato salad, tea and water - the bill was $27.50 per person....I thought that was high since we brought a volume of people. The pulled pork wasn't that great, chicken tenders was delicious. Just saying, I felt like my meal wasn't worth close to $30, with the three of us in the group, $83 was high......and no specialty drinks.
Best bbq I’ve had in years. One of the owners Jim Ritcher welcomed us right in! The barbecue trio platter was a mix of everything and certainly a must for first timers! I couldn’t recommend this place more!!
