Buddy's Bar-B-Q — Restaurant in Bristol

Husband ordered chicken and pulled pork he did not get what he ordered and they did not tell him that they did not have that combo in a meal but if they give him a chicken dinner he wanted the chicken dinner and a pulled pork sandwich so I went back I was trying to buy a pulled pork sandwich instead they give me the pulled pork and on a plate and I had to pay $4.25 for it Justin pork on a tray so I ended up going back and having to buy a bun which cost me 39cents so we're all together we had to keep going back in peace and his meal together what we didn't want to begin with I think it's pathetic and ashamed that you have to buy this food like this and then be treated hateful and mean and the looks and the hateful talks from them Kelly Pruitt is the GM I don't care who the boss is I want the owner to see how his guests are being treated to get all together the first meal was $23.77 then I had to pay $57 then I had to pay $4.25 because the order kept getting messed up I came at the table and still didn't have it right my meal was a pulled one quart dinner on a bun south on the side whatever that means french fries corn and slaweven though all of this happened the food was cold I mean Coke I am so upset with this place right now I doubt if I ever come back here somebody needs to come in and check this place out and...

Not often I give 5 🌟! I was hesitant to spend 9$ on a meal. IDK what complaints are about unless time of day or certain employees? Amazing Pulled Pork Dinner! You get hush puppies or a bun plus 2 sides. I chose on bun w/ HP & fries. I'm picky about green beans & slaw esp after reviews. BEST pulled pork IN AREA! (there are allot bad places) The sauce was on side b/c BBQ sauce varies. Not a fan of sweet but this is slightly sweet & sour w/ light pepper type spicy. They have 2 "cups" and 1 was enough cause I like to taste pork. The pork was finer than expected but flavorful & moist. It was easy to eat & more likely to digest. I was impressed w hush puppies too. These things are nearly golf ball size! These are tasty & quite unusual. I am not sure what seasoning is buts it's mild. They are not typical cornmeal based southern style. These are more bread like and fluffy. I skipped breakfast & had half fries plus 2 hush puppies left over. Probably should've halfed sandwich & had snack for later.

I was confused w/ 3 doors & had No Idea there was drive through! It wasn't mentioned on website. Rightmost door snakes to counter where you order & pickup inside. The other 2 doors are for lobby. The food is safety sealed w/ tape too! Probably overboard cause they gave a grocery bag. I will include pics...

I live in Kingsport but am in Bristol at least once a week. I always stop at Buddys and get 1/2 pound of pulled pork and a pint of baked beans and eat on it several days. When I first started going, I thought the food was really good but the quality has quickly gone down. Went tonight and opened the container of pork to find it literally soaked in grease. It had grease settled on the top that was so thick, just nasty. I tried squeezing it out with a paper towel but there was just so much I just threw it all away. Ate some of the beans. Nothing special about them. The hot fudge cake was so hard, probably been made for days. I’ve had to dig pieces of the plastic lids out of the beans before but I think this finally did it. I won’t be back. Too much money to end up with something inedible and in the trash!!!! Update on review— I ended up with horrible nausea and vomiting. I called to tell the manager about the garbage they were handing out the window, all she cared about is if I had my receipt. No I did not but I wasn’t interested in a refund. They need to be held accountable for making people sick with the garbage they sell. Watch...
