  “The atmosphere is really chilled and relaxed, but the food is the real standout. Everything was absolutely delicious, packed with flavour”

  “Portion size for cost was good value. The food itself was tasty for the most part, I think the Boers sausage wasn't too flavourful, overall nothing blew us away flavour wise. The chef snuck some really stale chips under fresh ones which was pretty cheeky and clearly deliberate. The waitress who brought the food over kept asking me to pass stuff to people, not my job really. Some beers were good, others not so much but I appreciated them all and though I didn't enjoy some, they were good quality.”

  “For a BBQ lover like us we can give BFK BBQ a 3.5 out of 5 stars. We ordered the Peggy sue platter + potato salad + cheesy fries + chicken wings + mojito + beer + lemonade + cookie ice cream sandwich for dessert. Ended up we paid £105 for us 2 adults and 1 child. Why we giving 3.5 it's because the chicken wings and pork cubes is dry and bit salty. Rack of ribs was cooked well but too sweet. Smoke house beans included on the platter is also too sweets. All in all, it's all good until you tasting them together. There's something missing to balance the flavour of each meat served. Cookie ice cream sandwich is a bit huge and chewy to have. What we enjoyed is the cheesy chips and drinks. Kudos to a good friendly service they have.”

  “It used to be very good quality, as of recent (last year or so) it's definitely gone down hill a bit. The meats are still fantastic, but I would avoid the loaded fries (bacon / pork / chili etc) as they're nowhere near value for money, had about 3 bacon bits on my loaded bacon fries the other day, and the fries themselves taste like they're out of an Iceland bag and into a frier. Get some extra wings or something instead as a side.”

  “In summary, delicious food carefully cooked in an American bbq style, in a rustic setting provided by a friendly, efficient team. Our second visit recently to this previously unknown food haven. Apparently it's been here years. Our loss! This food type is virtually like oxygen in America but seems hard to find in the UK. Anyway the ribs and suchlike from the smoker and firepit are exceptional. First visit was with bbq loving friends - an easy sell, whose favourite was the wrapped meatballs, among the sharing platter. Second visit was with the far fussier not meaty family, who were wowed by the beer battered fish n fries, both cooked much better than most chippies. Top marks for multi dimensional catering. My hog hen burger was substantial and delicious. I should mention another dimension - the excellent choice of beers from the brewery there. I'm not an expert but they were very well received by those who are. Location is rustic and interesting - with individual cabins, outside area and large...erm ...canopied area. Warm enough in winter if you have good clothing. Speedy, friendly, light touch service, appropriate for the character of the venue. Really good place - so pleasing to have a local speciality restaurant to take people where everything is of such good quality. Rare indeed.”

  “Brilliant! Tucked in a quiet road just outside of Exeter. Very nice setting. Outdoor tables and a few sheds for small private parties. The main area is also pretty cool. The food is fantastic. They know how to play around with meat here. Nicely prepared, tender, all beautifully cooked and amazing flavours. The service is great. Nothing is too much trouble for the team. They provide service with a smile and they work hard. Our shed had heating and a bluetooth speaker you can connect and play your own music. Definitely recommended and for sure we will be back.”

  “Great customer service started before we arrived, I had some questions for a disabled member of our party. Georgia was so helpful, she described to food brilliantly and arranged for us to eat in a shack. The food was great, our waitress was kind and helpful. And now I need to lay down because you don't leave this place feeling hungry ;) Highly recommend, we'll definitely return.”
