I actually do like this place but my family does not...my daughter and my wife could not stomach the smoke flavor of the meats it was a little too much for them and all the sauces tasted like they added liquid smoke to them for some reason. The only thing my daughter liked was the mac and cheese and the lemonade. Ill say they need to change the bread on the pulled pork sandwich they are trying to hard to be fancy when a bbq place is simple in texas you just get a simple keiser roll just make sure its fresh and you warm it up the bun we got was cold and hard. And they need to tell the staff not to ask so many times if they need something because too much help is ennoying you cant enjoy the food. I probably wont return because I dont go out to eat by myself and I dont see my family wanting to go back.

Brisket was awesome, pork was also very good, collard greens need bacon and Tabasco! Over all a good BBQ joint and priced fairly. The staff was young,energetic,and kind. Place was Clean and entire kitchen is visible. All food is cooked fresh daily never frozen they dont even have refrigerators.... After spending 6yrs traveling for work and eating at the best BBQ spots in the world from NC,SC,TX,TN,KC to name a few this place was one of the best Ive tried in PA. Will definitely come back.

Stopped in to get food to bring home for lunch. Really impressed with cleanliness of restaurant and relaxed atmosphere was welcoming. Employees were extremely friendly and helpful. Ordered pulled pork sandwich, cheesy potatoes, mixed salad, mac and cheese, baked sweet potato, and blueberry cobbler. Family was very pleased with what was ordered- food was hot, fresh, and seasoned very well. Will definitely be back to dine in. Thanks for a great experience!

Very young staff, more worried about sitting with their friends than working. Sandwiches were extremely dry, and the sauces on the table barley makes it able to swallow. Never had a dry brisket sandwich before. The sides were good, but very small portions. Was excited to try judging from the reviews, sadly will not go back. Its essentially dickeys BBQ at a higher price. Guess you have to go down south to get good BBQ.

Prices are higher than a fast food joint, but the food is too notch! If you like different types of sauces, they have several sauces at the tables for dipping or smothering your food in. The Alabama White is my favorite sauce. The restaurant is clean and staff is friendly. Id say the portions are very generous. Plus- if you purchase their special reusable cup, they donate to the fire dept.

Love it and I enjoyed hearing the National Anthem at noon in honour of those who serve in our community . It was also nice to see they allso included police, fire, and emergency medical personal . The staff is polite and very fast and the food is awesome. There are so many choices for BBQ sauce. The best is Tupelo Honey Heat. I will drive the 30 mins just to eat here.

I really like it. For this area 5 stars all the way. The best BBQ youre gonna get without having to drive too far. If in TX 4 stars. The brisket is good quality but they should use butcher paper and let it breath. Has a little bit of a pot roast flavor as opposed to a smoky wood flavor TX is famous for. Could be better but pretty darn good. The service was excellent!

I love the patriotism here. This place looks like an authentic southern style restaurant and boasts tons of EMT, firefighter, police officer, and military memorabilia. A major highlight I think personally is the branches of military football uniforms and helmets. The food is pretty good and not too expensive. I honestly just like going for the atmosphere.

Very clean place and good food. I got their three meat combo with Moist Brisket, Pulled Pork, and Jalapeño Sausage with Cheese. All tasted good but couldve been served slightly warmer. Got a side of Mac and Cheese which was excellent. They also have a variety of hot and BBQ sauces. Definitely one of the best BBQ joints in the valley.

Best place around. Aside from the amazing food, the customer service is outstanding. The most military and first responders friendly joint Ive ever been to. Very respectful employees that go above and beyond to give you a great experience. I am a Marine Corps veteran and I come here whenever I am in the area. Highly recommend to all!

Easy access location, very full atmosphere, staff with big personalities, and a full menu that everyone can find something they want to try... eating here is a good time!!! I tried all of their bbq sauces plus their Georgia mustard and I look forward to coming back. I highly suggest going with an empty stomach!!

This place has the best barbeque in the area. Serving sizes are deceiving, it looks like theres not much on your plate but it is filling. The people at the counter are so polite and are willing to guide you through the menu if you have never been there before.

They have a sauce for every person, the meat on my sandwich was so tender and juicey, blueberry cobbler awesome! If youre in the area, give this a try before any fast food place! Super clean restaurant with a nice feel to it, highly recommended.

Where else can you go that serves awesome home cooked like food, great customer service, and be able to support your local EMS and military. If there are places, Mission BBQ is the best at it. Just go in and try them, you will go back.

Some of the best BBQ you will ever have in the north. The chicken is half an entire bird, very tender, great favor, reasonably priced. I love that Mission BBQ donates to veterans charities. I feel so good about supporting this business!

Amazing. Came in here with my husband who is a veteran. They pretty much rolled out the red carpet for him. Amazing food for a great price. The service was phenomenal. Would definitely recommend and come back here.

Awesome food! Great Atmosphere! I had the pulled pork. They have 6 different kinds of BBQ sauce at every table! Also really loved the fact that they give honor to active/retired military and Police & Firemen!

Love Mission BBQ. This location is no different. Great staff, they noticed our party of 9 and came right up to us and asked if we wanted them to put tables together for us. That kind of service is top notch.

The place is ok and it supports a good cause but just on a food level, not that great. The meat is a little dry and the sides are not that great. With other BBQ places in the area, Id sooner go there.
