Such a great spot. The meats are all so tender and flavourful- I could eat an entire pan of corn bread and mac and cheese. Also the coleslaw is to die for. Do not skip!

Server was absolutely fantastic and added a nice flare to this meal Family style dining where you all must agree on a set list of meats to feast on. Very well priced for the amount of food and flavour packed into this. Pork ribs, pulled pork, fried chicken, and brisket were an absolute knockout. Sides were Mac and cheese with potato’s. Meal was “for 2” but we had more than enough leftovers for EACH of us to take home.

You probably haven't had BBQ this good. I know, you've had some great BBQ, maybe you've even been to that quasi-famous place on the outskirts of "greater Hamilton". This is better. Also, Salt Lick won't cut you off after two beers like you're some sort of child. Speaking of, they also have incredible cocktails here, my wife had something I don't recall the name of, but she gave me a sip and it tasted like pumpkin pie. So if you want amazing food and instagram-worthy drinks but don't want to trek out to the scary part of Hamilton to get Your Pie you should come here. Seriously this food is so next level it's not even the same game. This is the best fried chicken you've ever had. I promise you. And the PORTIONS! I buy groceries, I know what food costs, and I don't think I could've bought the raw meat for the price we paid for this amazing meal. Do not pass this place up - a shining diamond amongst the jewels of James North.

The staff was so pleasant and personable. We went for their crawfish boil and everything was delicious! The food came out fast, the cocktails were fantastic, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
