“I'm updating this to reflect the wonderful staff and food here. After 4 try's I finally got to enjoy their food. In a twist, I actually am more impressed with the soulful sides than the meat and sauce! Mac and cheese, baked beans, macaroni salad, potato salad and last but certainly not least- the butter honey corn rolls. OMG- if you have seen the Texas road house rolls vs Cheddars croissants competition then let me introduce a new challenger! Light, sweet, hot, with warm honey drizzle. I liked the meat. The sauce for the ribs is a little runny for my taste. The chicken was seasoned well, but with no sauce I would encourage them to make it a bit bolder and smokier. But the highlight is the very sweet people working very hard there, and treating everyone like family!“
“Checkered Pig BBQ and Ribs in Martinsville, West Virginia, is an absolute gem in a town with limited dining options. The staff's exceptional politeness and efficiency, even during peak hours, truly impressed me. As for the food, the Pitman smoked brisket sandwich was nothing short of perfection—hot, fresh, and bursting with flavor. Thanks to the Kipita app I stumbled upon this culinary treasure while craving BBQ, and it exceeded all expectations. A solid 10 out of 10 rating for an unforgettable dining experience!

“So I’m in town for the NASCAR race and I am always looking for places to eat that are out of the norm. This place was one of three that were recommended so I decided to check it out. I’m soo glad I did. I wasn’t in the mood for anything in particular and the bartender made a few suggestions. I settled on a chicken sandwich and a baked potato and my lord was it ever good. I half wanted to order it a second time just to relive the experience.The tables are repurposed Bowling lanes cut to table or booth sizes. Very clever and unique. There’s a stage and lighting for live events I suppose but wow that was a really good meal.Thanks to Karen at Great Clips for the recommendation!“
“Since my last review, I've gone back several times. Each time has been a little better. Tonight, my son and I went for a quick meal. We each got BBQ trays and they were amazing. Good was ready very fast. Service was much friendlier than previous visits. Great job improving in all areas. We will definitely be going back as they seem to have turned things around for the better.“
