Barbeque Restaurants near Massanutten

“This was a nice experience. It is outdoors with table service. The server was very pleasant. Food was better and tastier than we all expected from a place like this. My wife's burger was slightly over cooked from what she requested, but hey, this ain't a burger joint. My Bahn Mi sandwich was not totally authentic, but hey, it's not a Vietnamese restaurant - still very good. We liked the chicken sandwich and wings. We would certainly go there again.“

“🌄 Massanutten Overnight Stay: Here's What to Know 🛶🦌🎉 I recently had the chance to spend a night at Massanutten Resort, and let me just say — if you think you’ve seen it all before, think again. Whether you're staying for business, fun, or something in between, this place is like a little mountain town of its own. You could easily spend a week here and still not hit everything. ✨ Arrival & Check-In We checked in around 1PM on a Thursday. It was smooth, quick, and the staff was friendly. One thing to note: there are two exits out of the parking lot, and the resort actually continues up the mountain across the road, which wasn’t super clear up front. A little more signage or direction at check-in would’ve been helpful — but once you're on your way, the signage kicks in and makes exploring easier. This place is huge — full-on neighborhoods, rental communities, and at least 12 different kinds of fun, from go-karts to golf to hiking trails with stunning overlooks that are totally worth wandering off the path for. 🏡 The Condo We stayed in the Woodstone area. Condo was updated, clean, and surprisingly spacious. The full kitchen had everything we needed, and the jacuzzi tub in the main area was a great bonus (pro tip: bring bath salts or bubbles if you’re a soak person). One small suggestion: a display basket in the kitchen area for fruit or snacks would be a handy touch. We made it work, but it stood out. 🚬 Smoker-Friendly Balcony (Yes, Really) Here’s something you don’t see often: the balcony allows smoking. One of us is a smoker, so it was nice to see a resort acknowledge it with clear rules instead of pretending people don’t do it. It was appreciated. An ashtray would be helpful, but hey — props for even allowing it at all. 🧖‍♀️ Rec Center = Hidden Gem The indoor/outdoor pools were clean and inviting, and the eucalyptus steam room hit the reset button for all of us. Sauna, loungers, pool tables, arcade, and a very decent gym — just don’t forget closed-toed shoes and proper attire if you want to use the equipment. (Let’s just say we learned the hard way.) 🍽️ Campfire Grill = Worth the Trip Alone Dinner was hands-down one of the best parts of the stay. The crispy catfish with roasted corn remoulade was perfection, and the Campfire Burger didn’t miss. Even the “kid food” was solid. This place isn’t just convenient — it’s genuinely good. Would honestly come back for the food alone. 🎢 Coming Soon: A Rollercoaster. Yes, Really. They’re currently building a rollercoaster into the side of the mountain that’ll cross over the road — coming 2026. It’s giving real alpine adventure energy. Can’t wait to see that finished. 💦 Other Highlights Didn’t get to explore the indoor waterpark this time (it’s open to the public, just outside the resort and not part of the resort itself!), but it’s nice to know it’s nearby. Definitely something to keep in mind for longer stays or families. 🛠️ A Small Glitch, Handled Well We had an issue with our lock after check-in — had to go back to the desk and wait for maintenance, but staff was helpful and quick to respond. What was more concerning: the next morning, we noticed the door was slightly open. Luckily, I had made a mental note when reading the check-in instructions — they specifically mentioned using the chain lock before bed, and I’m so glad I latched it. Our room was very separated, so honestly, we wouldn’t have heard a thing if someone had come in. Definitely unsettling, but staff reassured me they could check key swipes and entry logs — and said they would. That kind of transparency makes a big difference. ✨ Final Take If you’re looking for a place that mixes fresh mountain air with a ton of activities, relaxing spaces, and solid service — Massanutten’s worth checking out. Whether it’s a full-on vacation, a quick overnight, or something in between, this resort has the space and variety to fit just about any kind of stay.“

“Nice setup and clean. The constant bbq aroma helps the atmosphere. The soup was great and a good sized portion. The chicken tenders were low quality but tasted good. Also the fries were great. The prices are high for what you get but the staff were very friendly.“

“My husband and I used Hank’s Grille and Catering for our wedding this past May. We had a vision and they helped us bring it to life! We wanted it simple, hot dogs and hamburgers on our Memorial Day weekend wedding. we used their food truck services and it was a hit! Everyone loved the food and we got the simple meal we wanted for our big day. They were amazing to work with before and during the big day.“

“Hands down the best BBQ. Met the owner while painting bridges and brought many coworkers to try his bbq. I’ve got coworkers from Greece, Syria, South America. Europe, and pure country boys… we all agree … the best. If I know I’m within 2 hours… I make the trip. I’m waiting right now for the site to say open I am currently in Staunton checking back daily 😛“

“Great pulled beef! The flavor and service was awesome“

“Good. I’m not sure if they have smokers or not… but not bad at all.“

“So, I’m from Connecticut and lately been to a Texas Roadhouse location there I wasn’t happy with. Today, I came to your location and everything was delicious, hot and amazing! Lovely staff and excellent service!“

“After a long day at the Massanutten Resort it was nice to have a good meal and a friendly face.

Miranda S @51 Burgess Road did a very good job with us.
She was nice and super friendly.

They even sang for my baby girl.
We appreciate her. 😉“
