Staff was really nice and gave us samples since it was our first time. Great approach bc it convinced me to buy turkey, which I never buy at bbq places. Their turkey was my favorite. Ribs and chicken were good, but a bit too peppery for my taste. Brisket was pretty good, but felt like it needed to cook a little longer. The bark was great, though. Their twice baked potato casserole was awesome! Was too full for dessert, so no opinion on those.

Amazing food, amazing customer service! Extremely pleased with the portions of the food. This is Texas bbq at its finest! Never disappoints, that’s for sure! If you are passing through San Marcos, make sure to stop by this gem!

Had the best experience at Hay’s this past weekend. Staff were patient, kind, and extremely helpful. It was our first time stopping by and they were patient while answering all of our questions. The food was the star here though! You can really taste the love and passion they put into their food and the portions are more than filling. Don’t skip on the Hatch Chile Mac and Cheese, it punches a kick and leaves you wanting more. Can’t say enough positive things about our experience here. Also, don’t forget taking some Banana Pudding for the road. So good!

This place is awesome!! I have been to just over 30 of Texas Monthly’s top 50. I am betting it now, Hays will be in the top 10 in the next list. Brisket was amazing, and the rib was truly elite, top 1-2 I have had anyplace. On top of that the owner Aaron and the crew are awesome. Local people who are just the kind of folks you come across and root for. If you are around the area or get a chance to build it into a fun day trip, make sure to get here as part of it! top of list bbq and top of the list people!

I just want to know why a regular sized brisket sandwich alone is $12!!!!????!!! Seems a bit steep compared to the other bbq places in town that sell them for $8 and taste better!

Spent close to $30 for not so much food. Sausage was extremely dry and you can only buy it by a whole link. There’s no premade plates, everything is priced on weight (and priced high). Staff was pleasant. Wasn’t impressed.

I had a chopped beef sandwich with a side of beans. The beans were absolutely delicious. I like how they put some brisket or some type of meat in it. It also had a kick to it as well. Go by today to try some bbq from Hays County BBQ.
