Dickey's Barbecue Pit

Extremely overpriced! A single BBQ sandwich and a side of coleslaw cost about $10! Additionally, there was only one employee working.

The food is fantastic! The vegetables are always fresh. I absolutely love the beef barbecue, and today I also tried the chicken, which was excellent!

This can be a very good place for BBQ if you make the right choices. At the moment, that would be the beef brisket and mashed potato casserole. Most everything else is quite average. The pulled pork is lame, no bark. Most of the sides seem like they are from cans. Beef brisket and potato casserole. That's it. Ver carta

Overall ratings: Food: 4/5, Service: 5/5, Location: 5/5 for Watkinsville. The restaurant is located on a corner near a strip mall with a grocery store and a small Mexican restaurant next door, so the traffic can get quite busy. However, there's plenty of parking available both in front of and behind the building.

The service, food, and atmosphere were all fantastic! After a tiring and challenging weekend, dining here was truly a blessing. It's an excellent spot for families with kids, especially since children eat free two days a week! The ladies' room features a wonderful changing table stocked with diapers and wipes if you need them. Plus, there’s a small playground with toys for children to enjoy while waiting for their meals! It's clear that the staff genuinely cares about their customers.

I recently picked up an online order that included an XL Mac & Cheese and a large baked beans. The Mac & Cheese was well-wrapped with a lid and saran wrap. However, when I placed the bag in my car, the lid of one cup of baked beans spilled all over my car. How was I supposed to know I needed to check the lids on the cups? That situation was frustrating enough, but I was also surprised to find that the “large” order of baked beans was actually just two small cups. Really?? I left feeling quite disappointed. Ver carta

I placed my order in advance, giving plenty of time, but still had to wait 15-20 minutes for my food. Once I got home, I discovered that one of my sides was missing. The food itself was only average, at best, and wasn’t worth the price we paid. I can now remove this restaurant from my BBQ list. The only positive about Dickey's is that they are open on Sundays when our two favorite spots, G Brand and Tamez, are closed. If it had been any other day of the week, I wouldn't have even considered trying this place.

Let me start by saying that the service here is great. The people working here are always so and have gone out of their way to provide great service. Unfortunately the food is pretty underwhelming. For the price, I was expecting something much better in quality. The only meat out of everything my family ordered that was any good was the brisket. Everything else was not great, lukewarm, and just not that great in taste. The sides were also not enjoyable; my wife's bean tasted like a can of Bush's beans that we'd make at home. All in all, disappointing.

The food was outstanding with a fantastic variety of BBQ sauces. The macaroni was creamy, served hot, and very flavorful, while the baked beans were excellent. The corn on the cob, dipped in butter, was absolutely delicious. The service was top-notch, with a wonderful staff who greeted us with smiles. Unfortunately, the ice machine was down during my visit, but I was pleasantly surprised by the best pecan pie I've had in years, which made up for the lack of ice cream! There was a wide selection of meats and sides available. Overall, it was one of the best briskets I've had in Athens, and I had a great experience. I will definitely be returning! Ver carta
