Macon Road Barbeque

A Columbus must do. Hometown atmosphere and flavor. Their signature bbq sauce is awesome. When I travel I miss this place. Get the bbq plate, stew and potato salad. With a sweet tea. See our YouTube channel Coolest Life.

Went here during my lunch break. Service was great, friendly staff. Pricing was very reasonable. Once I got back to work, and opened my plate there was a bug in my Mac and cheese. When I called the restaurant back and advised it was a small roach in my plate the response was “If you said a fly okay—But I haven’t seen no roach, I’ll let you talk to the manager.” Once he got on the phone there was no apology, just cut and dry “bring it to me and show me” *click*. The service up to that point was great, but to be so cut and dry as if I’m not a paying customer?… So I will do just that. Show you.

The staff is always so sweet and helpful. My family has been coming here for years and I don't know of anything they didn't like to eat from here. Thank you for awesome food and service for the last 20 years or so!

The atmosphere in the restaurant was pleasant. As I approached the counter to pay. I was hearing a lot of f-bombs from the employees. There were three working. Two in the back preparing. And the person that was taking payment for the meal. I'm not saying that I don't, occasionally, use profanity. But in a setting like that. I don't know if you question the quality of the food. I don't think that would be a concern. But you sure don't want to hear all that in a public restaurant

Called in an order for 5pc chicken fingers and double fries with honey mustard, NO HONEY MUSTARD even after my husband asked to verify and the guy said in the bag, NO DOUBLE FRIES, barely one order. I also ordered a quart of Brunswick stew . I ordered 3 large sandwiches all BITESIZE, 1 hot and 2 mild with no slaw, well guess what ALL 3 WERE HOT AND SLICED. I called to let them know and it was “ oh sorry we can do something next time” I said “ yeah that will never happen”. I spent $50 and some change and 2 of us threw our sandwiches away. THANK YOU MACON RD BARBECUE!!!!!!!😡😡. In June of 2025 I bought over a $92 wort of meat after not eating there for 4 yrs they were very pleasant and after I asked for a couple samples I ordered more and it was GREAT!!! I have been going back at least 2 to 3
