The drive-thru seemed busy. Everyone inside looked liked they all liked each other. Great teamwork on a HUGE combo platter that I mistakenly ordered thinking it fed only one. The sauces were incredible. Normally I'm not a mustard based guy, but the spicy and hickory sauces are both in my suitcase headed home.

I didn't even get a chance to eat! After ordering a BBQ sandwich tray togo and then waiting 45 minutes while the crew ran around like chickens with their heads chopped off I asked for my money back. Which took another 15 minutes of eye rolling as if it were my fault they couldn't figure out how to do their job. No worries I'll never go back!

March 10th visit at drive thru burgers were red and not edible. I phoned and spoke with Drew. He was very nice and told me to save my receipt, come back within 30 days, and he would make it right. Tonight I did that. Alanis was at the window. Had to tell her twice what I wanted; she asked again when I got to the window and still got it wrong!!! I give up!!

Was so looking forward to trying it out and left disappointed. We went to the buffet and was unhappy with selection and taste of the food. The only food we really enjoyed was the mac and cheese which was only one serving and they never replaced the tray and the potato salad.

I was born in Columbia and my parents were raised on Piggy Park, but we moved to eastern NC when I was a child where I've had to endure pork with pepper vinegar all my life. Every now and then I get a chance to go down to SC and get my fix of that sweet mustard based BBQ, like I did today. When they handed me the bag, I opened it, peering inside, and my mouth started to water. I think I even got a little dizzy. I bought extra and brought it home in my cooler, all the way to New Bern, NC. I'M NOT SHARING! It's MINE, MINE, MIN... read more

The food was great but the drive through girl was very rude and nasty and I didn't appreciate her little attitude when I placed my order. The girl who delivered the food to the car was very sweet though.
