Amazing service and atmosphere. Our bartender Qy was the best part of the experience and we hope to come back and see her soon.

We visited barrel house today for the first time, and it was a very pleasant experience. Our server Qy, was very accommodating and the food was really good. The atmosphere was clean and so inviting, I loved the life plants on the counter bar. This is now, my friend's and I, fave place to meet.

Really tasty BBQ. The pulled pork was really good, not salty or briny but tender and moist for a great combination of pepper cheese between fresh bread. Nice value too for a lunch. Yuengling was served at the properly cold temperature. Fun ambiance and nice service.Kudo's.

Live music, service was amazing food was delicious, eyes definitely bigger than our stomach we could've shared the portions are pretty big. 10/10

Came to town to see the JD Distillery, like most. Was recommended Barrel House by the guide. When I tell you this was the best BBQ I've ever had, I completely mean it. The restaurant itself is small, however, we did not wait long to be seated. Honestly, I'd wait an hour plus, that's how good everything was. Service was great. The pulled pork was the most flavorful pulled pork I've had to date. Their house made BBQ sauce should be flavor-town USA signature sauce. The ribs punched you in the mouth with flavor, they don't even need sauce. That's how you know they're gangster! The sides, the potato salad, honestly was some of the best I've ever had. Baked bean were delicious, with the right amount of sweet. The sweet potato casserole is worth coming for alone, I'll leave it out that. I am fortunate this place is only 30 mins from me, I'll be back regularly.

I visited on 7/8/24. The atmosphere was very similar to a dive-bar, but that's exactly what you'd expect in a place like this. The ribs and spicy sausage were the best pieces of barbecued meat I had during my 4 days in Tennessee; lovely smoke and tenderness on the ribs, and the perfect heat from the sausage. The sides were pretty average (the slaw was as finely chopped as KFC's, so there wasn't as much texture), and if you told me that the baked beans were poured out of a can, I'd believe you; they weren't unpleasant, but I expected something more. That being said, the quality of the meat covered a multitude of sins! I'd return if ever in the area again. P.S. The Men's restroom had what may be the best piece of graffiti that I've ever seen written, "Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie." Amazing.
