Tender ribs, juicy pulled pork, mac 'n' cheese, & blueberry pudding
"This BBQ favorite lives up to its name since the casual counter-service operation is always full of seniors, families, neighborhood folks, and friends huddled over very good platters of smoky pulled pork and chicken, or tender ribs. Plus, Community Q’s molasses-rich baked beans, crunchy slaw, and tangy pickled beets, rival those at your favorite soul food establishments." - juli horsford, jacinta howard, nina reeder
"Okay! I love meat. I love starch and I love speedy service and non-pretentious spaces. So, if you’re like me and often wake up from dreaming of the cheesiest, gooiest Mac & Cheese and the juiciest pork piled high on Texas toast, you should check out Community Q BBQ. On the menu, you’ll find all of the BBQ joint staples like pulled pork, ribs, smoked sausage, coleslaw, baked beans, Brunswick stew, and collard greens. They also offer locally grown produce and homemade desserts. The space is decorated with wooden spool tables, a plethora of pig knick-knacks, and they serve your food on quintessential red and white checkered paper. Insert heart-eyes emoji here! PS: The word on the street is that their famous Mac & Cheese recipe is posted online for public use! Happy googling!" - Staci Janik
"The reliable pulled pork is enough to fill up the Decatur location, but the unconventional and creative side dishes take the cake. David Roberts’ infamous mac and cheese blends rigatoni, cheddar, Monterey Jack, parmesan, and heavy cream, and the blueberry-pecan bread pudding will satiate any sweet tooth." - Candy Hom
"We love Community Q in Decatur for their smoky pulled pork and chicken piled high on texas toast, incredibly tender ribs, molasses-rich baked beans, crunchy slaw, and tangy pickled beets. We could go on and on. But it’s important to stop and mention our appreciation for the easy parking—with plenty of shopping center spaces to pull into when the BBQ jones hits." - juli horsford, jacinta howard
"At Community Q in Decatur, you almost feel like a Southern aristocrat—your ribs are literally served to you on a huge silver platter (OK, maybe it's made of tin, but these ribs are deserving of platinum). The easygoing BBQ spot has rightly been an Atlanta favorite for years. True to the telltale markers of a great family-style BBQ joint, the smoke greets you as you walk in, lingering in the air as elderly couples chat in booths, families elbow each other at the community tables, and friends chat over post-work meals. Here, rib meat falls off the bone with a gentle fork prod, while juicy, smokey pulled pork and chicken come piled high on Texas toast. And here, the sides shine too—molasses-rich baked beans, crunchy slaw, and tangy pickled beets." - demarco williams, jacinta howard
