About this business

Fresh Air Bar-B-Que has been a beacon for barbecue lovers ever since it opened in 1929 by Dr. Joel Watkins. It got its cult status after George W. Caston took over in 1945.

Worst bbq ever! Very small portions and only a hand full of items to choose from. Why they say bbq, I don’t really understand. They give you plain pork with a watery sauce on top. Yuck! And don’t even get me started on the service!
