E&S BBQ - (Near Athens, TX)

5 /5 Mr. Caceres: I’ve driven by this place for years not thinking much of it. One day I decided to stop in for lunch and boy was I surprised. It’s a quaint small town bbq joint that has a nostalgic vibe of the late 90s/early 2000s which adds to its charm. I had the Tuesday special of a loaded potato; pictured below (I chose the brisket). The cost to amount of food ratio is great. And the quality of the food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back

2 /5 Cory Ashton: Ok first of all weve passed by this place for years and Ive wondered how good the food might be so we looked at the reviews and seen nothing but good reviews so we finally decided to stop in and try it out and will never go back my wife and I both got the Tuesday special loaded baked potatoes with a side of Mac and cheese and side of what they call peach cobbler and 2 supposed to be stuffed jalapeños and for starters the potatoes barley had any meat and barley any cheese on them my wifes chicken was over cooked and dry almost like jerky the Mac and cheese had a awful after taste and the jalapeños had a burnt taste and barley had any stuffing in them! Oh and dont get me started on the peach filled bread that only had 2 peach slices in that bowl in the picture I grew up on true peach cobbler my hole life and Im 39 there is only supposed to be a top crust with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top but theres has mainly crust with a thin layer of peaches in the middle and it cost us $45 for us 2! We will not be back and to the people leaving good reviews yall need to clean yalls pallet and go taste actual quality food before leaving reviews lmao!!!!!!

5 /5 Blue Bird: Amazing food, so delicious. Great service too! The Saturday rib special is a huge portion

5 /5 carl payne: Passed by this little place several times and never stopped but today it was raining ND close to lunch so we decided to stop. We a so glad we stopped the food was great, I had the pulled pork and my partner had the sliced brisket, both sandwiches were Hugh more than we could eat. Definitely recommend you to stop in and just relax and enjoy a BBQ sandwich

5 /5 J. E. Higginbotham: I hadnt visited this restaurant since it was Happy BBQ before the Coronapocalypse, and as I expected, there have been some changes over these past five years or so, including a new dining room, a new name and a change in ownership. But Im pleased to report that the changes have predominantly been neutral to positive. While the tidiness of the Dining Room tables could stand more timely attention and the dining areas — indoors and outdoors — could benefit from an added table or three, the cuisine itself is all the same rich, rustic quality that we Texans treasure, as is the polished ranchers decor. My server informed me that the Walton Burrito (which was not yet on the menu for my last visit) is their most popular entrée, so I was quick to order a Walton Burrito for myself, and happily, it did not disappoint; stuffed with barbecued beef, baked beans, zesty sauce and your picks from a modest variety of extra ingredients (including sliced jalapeños, red onions and white onions), the large Walton Burrito, packed with such rich and hearty ingredients, is a meal in itself! E&S BBQ, far from even the nearby cities of Canton and Athens, could always use more customers, and I can promise that its well worth the drive. I shall make a point of returning in the future. Thank you for the satisfying lunch, E&S!
