Drifters Tennessee Barbeque (BBQ) Joint

Had a craving for BBQ and this place was one of the first to come up in th search for close to me. Place was not too bad busy for a Sunday evening. Got seated quickly and put server was very attentive. Gave us recommendations. I chose the half rack rib platter with fries, cole slaw, and potato salad with Alabama white sauce. Let me tell you this, I have eaten my fair share of ribs and these are probably the best I have had. Not quite fall of the bone. Very tender, very flavorful with a good rub applied. The Alabama white sauce was good, but just a tad spicy. I did dip them in it, and it gave them extra flavor, but they really did not need it. I could have eaten these straight off the bone. Mayo Cole slaw and potato salad were good. Fries were seasoned well. Will be back when I'm in the area for sure. Highly recommend.

Ribs were fork tender, pulled chicken didn't even need sauce, but the sweet and smokey was excellent. Nice variety of ciders available for gluten free options. Server was very knowledgeable about different sauces and drinks, giving recommendations when requested

We stopped in here for a taste and cold drink with the Secrets Tour and wow these wings blew us away. My son is the one that likes spicy food and he loved the flavor. The Pineapple Cider was absolutely delicious and really tamed the spices down.

We were there for an early lunch on a Sunday and our waitress Ashley was amazing. She took care of us and even made sure the Packer game was on. The food came quickly. The rib ribs were fall off the bone and very good and the variety of barbecue sauces was very fun. The food could’ve been a little warmer in our opinion, but it tasted great and served in great abundance.

This was my first time here and it was really good! My husband and I were on vacation and wanted to try something different. We found this cool little place and who doesn't love BBQ! Great music, service and food. It was also nice to see that clearly local people obviously frequent the place because they knew the staff by name, and everyone was very friendly, which you don't often see anymore. I love that. Our waitress/bartenders name was Ashley and she was great! As far as meat goes, I had BBQ brisket and it was so juicy and tender, it was delicious. My husband also had the BBQ brisket, as well as the pulled chicken and that was just as tender and juicy.

Passing through from nebraska headed to Florida. Couldnt wait to try Nashville bbq. Ribs were decent. Brisket was dry with no flavor. Mac and cheese was disgusting. Sausage was flavorless. I've got better bbq from famous daves. If this is what Nashville bbq is all about I'll stick to making my own cuz this stuff is not good. Not impressed at all with my almost 200 dollar order.

Went on a Sunday late afternoon, they had live music! At the recommendation of our awesome server, we shared Mac & Cheese with brisket on top, 1/2 rack of ribs (with creamy coleslaw, hush puppies & fries), a cold shandy (on tap) and a bushwhacker (like a Wendy's frosty with rum). Large portions! Only thing we didn't like; we were sitting outside and the flies were horrendous when our food arrived.

Half-rack with greens, slaw & macn-cheese. Ribs super,super tender. Enjoyed the hot/sweet sauce. I think they offered 4 or 5 different sauces. Would like to try all. Greens tasty. Mac-n-cheese OK. Ribs and sauce are the star! Yum!
