We ordered from Schmidt’s BBQ for catering and it was great. The food was really good and everyone really enjoyed it.

Sep 2025: BBQ and brew. The brisket and outdoor seating were the highlights. There was some live music. Not too loud so that’s good. The beer selection is pretty small. They close early.

Another one bites the dust...was a favorite before they stripped the entire menu. Disappointing to say the least.

Best BBQ in Leesburg. Limited menu but I had the brisket, chicken breast, Mac N cheese, and beans. The weakest of the three was the beans. They are sweet and spicy, they have chunks of beef and are only a few things away from chilly. I'd order them again because they were really good but everything else is better. Nice little spot to go as well, easy parking.

Got the brisket and pulled pork. Both were very good. I just wish they'd bring back the wings!
Nice outdoor space. My kids played on the stage they have and had a blast.

Schmidt’s BBQ in Leesburg is next level. The cornbread? Absolute fire—sweet, buttery, and perfectly crumbly. Their chicken is hands down my all-time favorite—juicy, smoky, and packed with flavor. And the live music? Such a vibe. It makes the whole experience feel like a backyard hangout with amazing food. This place is a hidden gem I’ll keep coming back to.

The custard cornbread is nuts. Get that. Mac and cheese, like many reviews have pointed out, is oddly bland. Brisket was amazing. Staff is super friendly and engaged.

It was amazing good bbq pull apart brisket and pork is cooked right. The sweet bbq sauce hits right with the sweet and tang and the Texas toast I had on my brisket and pork sandwhich hit the spot. Cornbread is best I've had in the area so far. Only other bbq place I'd say could have competition would be the one off rt 50 in aldie and this one even tops that 1 thanks

Parking: Plenty for compact cars or small truck. Wouldn't put a trailer in there but my single cab f250 went in fine. Plenty of parking not too far from it aswell if you have a bigger vehicle

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Stairs. Unfortunately no unless you got someone with you to assist.

My friends and I always pass by this place and finally made our way in this past Sunday and had a really bad experience with the guy taking orders. It was weird especially because the conversation was nice when my friend was ordering, but it seems this dude was confused. My friend told him he wanted beef ribs, not pork. And when he got the ribs he noticed they didn’t look like beef ribs, and the lady server confirmed it was pork. Naturally my friend went to the cashier to discuss the mistake and this dude totally lost it. Worst of all, his horrible attitude escalated towards him locking us in, turning off the open sign and shoving the tray into my friend insisting that it was my friend who made the mistake. Only after his power trip did he take the food back. Not a welcoming nor customer friendly environment that day whatsoever and this should be known. I don’t see myself visiting this place again, and for the owners sake they really gotta replace this guy, especially considering his episode of locking us in and furthering his little stupid anger spout.
