The pork wasn't trimmed well so there were several inedible fatty pieces. Greens were ok but nothing special. BBQ sauce was nothing special either. They had no unsweet tea. Cashier did not seem happy at all. It's kind of dark inside and outdoor has bunch of trees. That's not really a bad thing except in autumn. Maybe have some tents during autumn? We got a ton of leaves in our food and drinks.

The wings were the best as far as taste and bang for your buck. The bbq itself was overpriced for very small portions of the meat and sides.

We had pulled pork, fries, collards & tried all the sauces. My favorite was the mustard based, but they were all really good.

Good BBQ place in the heart of downtown Woodstock. They have a good variety of sauces, but they upset both my fiancé and I stomach for some reason. The Mac and Cheese side was classic in flavor bur extra cheese! The "southern poutine" were just over seasoned meats nacho fries. Our food came out semi warm. Overall it was quite busy but next visit I know what to ask and look for!

Spent $40 on ribs thinking they would be great, super dry, when both my husband and I tried to cut with the plastic utensils we splattered bbq sauce all over each other. Complete madness and extremely hot inside restaurant near the sauce area, needed a relaxing dinner and this place did not meet the mark even with music and cool vibe.

Went for Trivia on Wednesday night which was a lot of fun. Having the spot be shared with reformation Brewery made for a great atmosphere with lots of space outside. The food was a mixed bag. I didn’t take pictures of the brisket and pulled pork or the sides we had (collard greens and Mac & cheese) but they were… fine. The brisket was a little dry and the pork wasn’t exactly flavorful. The sauces were needed to provide some extra flavor and they certainly delivered (the sweet, the sour, and the hot pepper were my favorites) We did end up getting to trivia before our friends so we did have time to order and absolutely devour the southern poutine. That, I highly recommend. The chili on the fries had a really nice kick to it that, to me, made this extremely tasty. Bottom line, the beer there is good, the southern poutine is excellent, and the bbq is bbq (not excellent but not bad either)

The food is good, not limited, but the atmosphere being inside of the brewery is awesome, especially during nice days when everyone is out. Enjoying the weather.

Great food, large portions. Pork was a touch salty, but still delicious. The line was long, but service was quick. Finding a table can be challenging during busy times.

Over priced bad food! Bar vibe. Service good. The food had no flavor! I ordered the brisket with two side. I was served a plate of fat with ZERO seasoning. The slaw was house made. Red cabbage, onion, and celery. Sounds decent, but nope. I had to spit it out. The person I was with had the ribs. She liked them, said they were tender. Collards were ok. Needed salt and heat. The pimento cheese was good. I would not recommend anything else. It's a place for drinks and music. Bar vibes.

wonderful service, wonderful food, the Brunswick stew is awesome. That's my indicator to what's good barbecue but everything on the menu is excellent good choices of sauces, and what better way to enjoy a nice wonderful cold beer with great barbecue.

Went to Queenie's over the Memorial Day weekend and was not disappointed. Everything from the brisket to the chicken wings were amazing. Unfortunately, they were out of ribs at the time as they were sold out from the night before and needed time to smoke more. The Good: meats - we had a smattering of everything they had available. Pulled pork, brisket, chicken wings, greens, slaw, potato salad, and banana pudding. I believe that we were extremely lucky to have gone when we did because everything was freshly made, or at least tasted like it. I noticed some rough reviews around the brisket but I can tell you that I have had tons of brisket from around this great country and I would put Queenie's up there with Hard 8 in Texas and Lil Miss in Phoenix. The sides were excellent. We absolutely loved the potato salad and wished we had picked up a full side to take to a party on Memorial day. The dill really sets it apart. The banana pudding was also excellent but did instigate a debate between those who like crunchy 'Nilla waffles and those who prefer them soft inside. Only thing missing was whipped cream on top to which there was no debate. The Bad: While nothing was "bad", the only thing I wasn't overly impressed with was the greens. Again, it could have been that they didn't have time to prep more after being sold out but they were a bit under done and lacking in that cohesive flavor that comes from time in the pot. However, I would order them again based on their promising potential. The Ugly: nothing ugly here my friends. From the great outdoor seating, to the excellent beer selection of their Redemption Brewery home, Queenie's is a true must try when visiting Woodstock.

I decided I wanted to try a meaty lunch and selected bbq as my option. I had to try just about everything. I love BBQ! The brisket was juicy and tender. It was my favorite part about my order. You guys should consider doing combos. They gave me a run for my money, but I would come back for the brisket.

Best BBQ IN DOWNTOWN WOODSTOCK!! I absolutely love Queenies! They have fantastic and quick service, it being right next door to reformation makes it a great combo! Such a fun place to be and hangout with people

Parking was bad but it was a Saturday afternoon. Interior left much to be desired. Not a lot of seating and super dark (not such if they normally have purple lights everywhere?). Food was ok. My husband liked the food fine.

Jason J.

Yelp
The baby back ribs were like jerky, brisket was not moist, pulled pork was dry. Mac and cheese was the best. Not flattering for bbq.

William J.

Yelp
I'd give it a 2.5 if that were an option. I've had the best and worst bbq I've ever had here. I think they might make fresh food one to two days a week based on volume. You'll either get great BBQ or the driest dog food. The atmosphere and location is awesome but sometimes the food is just so disappointing.

Yum We were meeting friends at The Downtown Playground in Woodstock on a Friday night without reservations anywhere. Reformation is close and we thought we'd grab a beer and watch the kids play. But the kids were hungry so we opted for Queenies over the food truck. I got 2 pulled pork sandwiches with French fries for the kids and me. Hubs got brisket with cole slaw and potato salad. He got the cole slaw as a side and let's just say it was definitely shareable. The portion sizes were great!!!! I highly recommend sharing. Especially when you're also filling up on beer. So this place is recommended highly. Down side: hmmmm if you want to sit outside you gotta get there early or camp out in a Friday night. But that's not entirely their fault.

Good food and fast service. Mentioned to the person behind the counter that they might want to update their info on the website listed here (eatatqueenies.com) and was met with a lackadaisical response of that's not our website. Seemed like he didn't care that their pricing and menu were completely wrong or that others might be flustered as well.Hope this helps someone else so they don't bring it up and feel like an ass for trying to help another local business out. Correct Website: www.queeniesbbq.com Correct Address: 604 Oak St. Woodstock, GA 30188 Correct Phone: 770-639-9090 Sent Yelp the updated information so they could change it ;)

Ordered the brisket tray for my dinner. I received the same amount of brisket as my son did in his pick two meat tray. Three little slices of the fattiest and greasiest brisket I've ever seen in my life. The sides were generous portions but lacked any flavor, had potato salad and cole slaw. Also had a frito pie, I requested to have this first and was told that was not possible. (It was 5:00 and the dining room was empty). Frito pie was delivered with all of the other food and was cold with unmelted cheese on top. Overall way too expensive they try to fill you up on sides but you should avoid this place. Very disappointed!

Quality product and a good atmosphere. Love the sauce in the ice tea containers for all you want. Great sauces actually. Brisket was great! Taking a star off for being CASHLESS. You run a business in America? You take our physical currency.

This place is delicious. The pulled pork sandwich was good, and the brisket was extremely good. There are a nice variety of sauces. The collards were fresh, though a little boring. The prices are not cheap, but pretty much on par for this kind of place these days. There is a lot of outdoor seating which is nice. I would like to see reusable cups instead of disposable plastic as well as silverware.

JK B.

Yelp
First time here & definitely not our last! Greeted by the most friendly welcoming staff. Deciding to try a bit of everything it was ALL delicious! My favorite was the pulled pork, husband's was the brisket. My favorite side was the coleslaw, husband's was the potato salad. Meats has the perfect smoky flavor & plastic knife tender. Love the laid back ambiance with a great selection of self serve BBQ sauces as well as a relaxing lounging area complete with couches, chairs & a big screen TV. Topping it off is a separate bar! Highly recommend!

Driving through DTW and saw the sign. Decided to give it a try. So happy I did! Excellent brisket and even better customer service!

I had the chili dog and a side of brisket chili and it was more than I could ask for for $10. They have a built-in brewery with several beers on draft and a dog friendly area outside. This place checks a lot of boxes for us.

Yelp
A place the whole family will love! Awesome location inside the upper level of reformation brewing. We have tried various items here over the years and all of it has been excellent. I usually split a sandwich with someone cause the portions are generous. There is lot of indoor and outdoor seating options. They have a variety of BBQ sauces at a self serve station. There is plenty of parking around, but sometimes it can take awhile to get a spot on the weekends.

Ronda B.

We got take out from here and the food was fabulous! Ricky was very helpful to tell us how to reheat the pork and brisket, which we were using the next day. We will definitely be back!

Yelp
Oooooweeeeee! This is some of the best BBQ in the area! Really wanted some wings today and their wings did not disappoint! Perfectly smoked wings that weren't split. Not many people do this, but I like whole wings! Definitely get extra napkins if you try them! The sauce was not too spicy and delicious! I think they offer this on the starter menu. The hand cut fries were fantastic! I've tried other items here and I never feel let down! The best part is that Queenies is right inside Reformation Brewery. You just can't beat the outdoor tables and beer here! BBQ AND BEER! What could go wrong?!Try the wings paired with JOGR beer from Reformation! Really nice!

I love the combo of pickled veggies and bbq. I did not like their pepper sauce cuz it tasted like soda and I don't drink chemicals. The brisket is very good and turkey is perfect. The cole slaw is really yummy, not too sweet and not too wet. The french fries are good too. Banana pudding tastes like chemicals. We don't eat processed food so we can really tell when something is manufactured vs homemade.

Jeremy B.

Yelp
Some of the best bbq I've had in awhile. We ate until we couldn't eat anymore‼ I had the delicious smoked chicken wings, just pure perfection. I am in love with the beet Cole slaw, such a cool combination. The chili cheese fries had a splendid taste with a good dose of spicy. They even offer a good pimento cheese. I can't get over how good this bbq joint is. Lastly, you have to end with dessert here. Their fresh fried Apple pie empanadas are the best thing I've ever tasted. IM SOOOO ADDICTED

Stephanie A.

Yelp
Always order from this place when I'm getting a beer at reformation.. ordered two brisket trays to go. Normally when we eat there we get twice the amount of meat. Not sure what they are trying to pull... i also tipped 5 bucks.. then get home to the surprise of 3 slices of dry brisket when its normally closer to 5-6. See the picture below.

Great food and fantastic, friendly service! My wife and I ate at Queenie's for the first time last weekend and were not disappointed. We ordered the Southern Poutine, Pork Tacos, and a Hot Dog with cheese. The tacos came with a side, we chose Mac n Cheese per employee recommendation. They had several self serve BBQ sauce options which were delicious. We were pleasantly surprised by the portions, and everything tasted great. We will absolutely be back.

Oh my damn!! I am at a loss for words. This joint is THA BOMB! Girls early dinner and we had the best time, service, food!! Drinks served in mason jars, delish bread with cinnamon butter served before main dish. The Brussel sprouts are amazing!!! The sweet potatoes are sweet and creamy. Pimento cheese burger.....flawless!!!! Coka cola cake...mmmhmmm! Solid, real!

Gary B.

Yelp
Simple BBQ is sometimes overlooked and under estimated. This is simple BBQ! The slaw was great, Mac-n-cheese very well done. I felt the Brisket was salty but tender. Pork was on point. Several Sauces to pick from including a white sauce, One of my favs. Price was on the higher end, but I left full and felt like I got my money's worth. Atmosphere was great with both inside and outside dining. Partnering with shares space in a brewery makes up for any BBQ shortfalls. All in all a recommendation to try once and judge for yourself.

ATLien B.

Yelp
Their original location is in Canton, but they've recently opened a counter-service BBQ spin-off located inside of Reformation Brewery in Downtown Woodstock. The smoked meats had on the first visit were amazing, especially the brisket and ribs. This weekend tried the empanadas as an appetizer and a Smoked Cheddar/Jalapeno Sausage special that were both amazing. Save room for dessert too because the Fried Pecan Pie was unbelievable! Can't go wrong getting a great Reformation Brewery beer and a bite to eat whenever in town

Elizabeth B.

Yelp
Queenie's has good BBQ and sides and is conveniently located in downtown Woodstock. It even shares a building with the wonderful Reformation Brewery! It's also the only place where I've done indoor seating since March as the inside feels very nicely spread out. I've always enjoyed the food that I've ordered from here but the con is that portions have always seemed a little petite for the price.

Craig G.

Yelp
Fairly decent BBQ, with the "heirloom pork" being the best of the meat options (although my wife's was very fatty). They don't offer ribs, and the brisket is more like burnt ends and was quite dry. None of the meats had a great smokiness, but the portions were generous. Especially the coleslaw as it was enough for two people. And the side of pickled vegetables (carrots, onions, cucumbers, and jalapenos) is enough for sharing. The fries were good, although two at our table found theirs a bit salty. The grandkids had hot dogs, which were as big and plump as bratwursts and all the buns were on Martin's potato rolls, which are an excellent choice. The chili and the Brunswick stew were both nicely done. The prices are steep and service is minimal: signs everywhere tell you to clean your own table. And you pick up your order at the counter when they call your name. There are no fountain drinks and you have to buy those at the bar next door. Tea, water, and lemonade were our only options for refills. BBQ sauce is served in little condiment cups and we tried the sweet, hot, and Alabama varieties. The Alabama was a good rendition. The sweet and hot have more in common than I expected, with the sweet still having some heat and quite tangy.

This place is amazing. They have some of the brisket I've ever had and I've lived in Texas so that's saying something. It literally melts in your mouth. The fact that it's connected to reformation makes it an awesome atmosphere too. Do yourself a favor and get the brisket when you come here. You won't be disappointed

TooHonest F.

Not bad but their sauces are weird and location is hard to find. Helpful and cheerful and enthusiastic employees. BBQ is plentiful and good

Cathryn N.

Yelp
Seems like a lot of these negative reviews are from people who don't understand that Queenie's is located WITHIN a brewery and isn't a stand alone restaurant. Think of it more like a food booth rather than a sit down restaurant. Personally, I love the vibe of this spot. It's a great place for locals and visitors alike to just hang out in a relaxed environment (but maybe I'm just a hippie millennial). That being said, this place is BOMB. The brisket is the golden standard for all other BBQ joints. Super flavorful and always juicy. Their "cheese & mac" is a crowd pleaser with both adults and kids and the frito pie is always a good choice. Last but not least ANY OF THEIR TACOS ARE SO DANG GOOD. Plus they're only $7?!?! If you're looking for table service, handholding, white cloth napkins, and silver utensils: GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. If you're looking for darn good BBQ, local beer, friends, and a community driven environment, check it out!

Good bbq pork and turkey at the Reformation location. I would definitely eat there again.

Jennifer Waites R.

Yelp
I recommend the food but not the customer service, for the most part. I ask for to-go boxes because I didn't finish my food and they act like I'm stealing money out of the cash register. And no diet drinks? Their suggestion is to mix water with lemonade or sweet tea when I paid for a drink and have diabetes. Hmm.

Joe P.

Yelp
A terrific little BBQ joint in downtown Woodstock that has the added bonus of sharing space with an outstanding local brewery. On a recent visit, I enjoyed a delicious plate of Brisket, topped both with a flavorful sweet sauce, along with fries and a side of creamy Mac n Cheese. Queenie's has prompt and friendly service, and ample seating both inside and out. And, of course, the ability to pair your meal with a delicious Reformation IPA makes the whole experience even better. One of the brewery's two bars is just a few yards from the counter where you order your meal, making this one of the coolest BBQ restaurants I've been to in a while. Parking, as with everything in downtown Woodstock, is difficult, so plan on getting there early if you want a spot nearby. Worth the trip and highly recommended!

Yelp
What a blessing this place is! I was excited to learn several months back that my favorite brewery would be getting a restaurant inside! Little did I know that it would be some of the best BBQ in the world!! The smoked wings, mac and cheese, and banana pudding that I had from them yesterday were the best of each that I've ever had! Hands down! DO NOT sleep on this place, and the superior beer pairs oh so well!! Get there ASAP!! Oh! And the best sauces in the world!! Try their Pepper Sauce!! I'm addicted!!

Ric G.

Great setup with Reformation Brewery. Quick and friendly service. Started with the Flash Fried Smoked Brisket & Cheddar Fritters - tasty! Brisket sandwiches, collards and the slaw so good!!

We love Queenies! We've been several times and it never disappoints. I'm a huge fan of the frito pie appetizer and the pulled pork. They are always consistently good and cover my cravings for southern bbq.

Denise S.

Yelp
Not sure what the hype is...we walked in and 3 people behind the counter walked away. Eventually a guy came up and took our order. We got ribs with coleslaw and pickles, and a 2 meat tray with pulled pork and brisket. The sides were mac n cheese and fries. The ribs and brisket were very dry. The pulled pork was pretty decent and juicy. The sides were terrible, cold mac n cheese that was a little crunchy and weird fries that were oddly dry and crumbly. My husband did not like the purple cabbage coleslaw, but did enjoy his pickle assortment. No bread was served with our orders. I would not recommend this place, not sure how other people loved it so much?

Grabbing a bite to eat while enjoying the great weather at Reformation. We tried the Jalapeño cheddar sausage , the pimento cheese & pork rinds, the fries and brisket chili. Everything was great. The pork rinds were still popping when they arrived at the table. Our favorite had to be the chili, which we tried with the fries and the pork rinds. It had a spicy bite and was delicious. Definitely recommend trying this BBQ place.

Megan S.

Yelp
My first time eating here. Heard about it from boyfriend and friends who live nearby. Cute bar, seating inside or outside. So far hands down the best brisket, pork and collard greens ever. Also had 5 different sauces that I couldn't decide which one was my favorite. We shared a meal and I took over and ate most of it. So much more on the menu that I didn't get to try but will be back again next visit back.

Lauren D.

Yelp
First time in my life leaving a bad review.... They were out of 3 of their sides. Their French fry machine was down and they said it could be a week before it's fixed! Crazy!!!... but ok. So, I ask to sub fries for banana pudding since it's one dollar more and in offer to pay the dollar. They refuse. We sit down with our two sides of mac and cheese when my mother in law realizes she was given the wrong order. Then...... I go up to get water cups and she says, "by the way starting next week no free water... only bottled water." As if I'm ever coming back lol. Oh and my brisket was dry. Best of luck to them.

Shawn T.

Yelp
My first time while in town visiting friends in Woodstock. This place has a great outside area!! Although I had an encounter with the mgr who was short with me as I asked what would be a sufficient menu order for 6 people? He suggested the platters or putting in a advance catering order. Why isn't there a PARTY platter on the menu?? I took his suggestion and ordered one of the current platters . We realized when we got home it wasn't a sufficient meal or portion size to accommodate 6 people. The mgr could have been more hospitable and should have a portion size for a party of 6 without having to place advance catering order.

Margaret P.

Yelp
Disappointed. Way too much salt. The fries would have been so good if the cook would have taken it easy on the salt. Then the macaroni was bland. We were excited by how appetizing everything looked but then let down.

Mike H.

Yelp
First time here and I was really hoping that I would love this place but..... I ordered the two meat platter with potato salad and mac and cheese. I got turkey and brisket. The turkey was pretty good, tender and juicy but needs more smoke on it. The brisket was overcooked and very dry. Maybe it wasn't covered to rest? Good flavor and rub but just dry and crumbly. The Mac and cheese was terrible I'm sorry to say. Very pastie tasting like too much flour in the rue. Bland and sticky. The potato salad was amazing though!!! Some of the best I've had before.

Great, authentic Southern cooking. Chef driven, farm to table food that never fails to please. Awesome bbq pork! Best biscuits anywhere!

Jaiden C.

Yelp
Great food! I think they have really nice flavor the meat is tender and has a great consistency in moisture which further enhances the flavor. I recommended for a nice family outing or just a little snack. They also have a bar right next to where you order so it's super convenient to order then grab a beer and enjoy myself.
