First time dining here. Pulled pork and pulled chicken were great with a variety of extra sauces. Burger and fries, delicious! Baked beans had nice flavor, and slaw was well made Good bourbon selection at reasonable price.
We ate at Cinder Bistro as part of a local food tour. We had the brisket, collard dip and a sampling of local beers. We all agreed this was one of the best stops on the tour. The food was delicious and the owner was super personable. He came and talked to our group, told us more about what we …
All around great place to eat. We had a fabulous lunch. We started with the chicken wings; they were so yummy, crispy, and juicy. Then I had the smokehouse quesadilla with the collards. Great service as well.

Our service was excellent on a Saturday afternoon on 5/23/25. The girls took such good care of us with three dogs outside. Love the waitresses! Even the guy bringing out our food was so sweet to …

The super friendly staff definitely made my experience even …

The Cattleman’s Wedge was unforgettable, with the brisket adding the perfect touch to the classic wedge. Brisket and pulled pork would satisfy any craving for smoked perfection. The hush puppies …
Tried the platter with all the meats. Everything was great. And their fries are excellent too!
Found this place on Google and wanted to give it a try. It's wonderful incredible atmosphere. Smells incredible when you walk in! Had the best server probably ever, I am awful with names. He does theater in the mountains( if you see this)! He made the experience 10 times better incredible humor!
