White Swan Bar-B-Que & Fried Chicken

Me and a friend went here a while back. The person taking our order acted like she didn’t know a whole lot of anything. Which is all fine and dandy… But my friend ordered the «family pack» or whatever it’s called that comes with a whole chicken, a quart of slaw, and a dozen hush puppies (he was hungry). We go sit down. The girl comes over a few minutes later and says, «They just told me to tell you that you cannot order that for here, you can only order it To Go. So my friend politely says, «Well just package it to go, that’s fine. I will just still eat it here.» She stares at him with a blank face for several seconds. He says, «Problem solved right? I mean is that alright?» She literally sighs, rolls her eyes, and says, «I guess» as she walks away. She goes back and tells the other workers and I see them all shaking their heads. But so when my food is ready, they bring it on over to me. But when his was ready, they refused and made him come up to the counter. Then as he’s eating, he realizes he needs a fork for the slaw, so he goes to look for one on the counter where the condiments are. The other girl says, «What do you need?» He says, «Oh, I just need a plastic fork please.» She says, «That’ll be extra.» He says, «What do you mean?» She says, «That meal doesn’t come with a fork. If you want one you’ll have to pay extra.» He says, «Are you serious?» «Yep.» «Never mind, I’ll make do without.» We were completely blown away by the way we were treated. We were completely polite, and had just spent $ 25, but were treated like they did not want us there whatsoever. Needless to say, we will never step foot back in there. I’ve also told the story to many friends and family (who have been equally as shocked), and they’ve all said they will never go back there either.

There was so much food in my plate! It was delicious! I had fried chicken and bbq pork, (vinegar based bbq) Brunswick stew, potato salad & hush puppies. The hush puppies are given complimentary when the table is seated and they are sooo addicting! I like white meat and was served 2 pieces of chicken which one was left untouched because I just couldn’t eat anymore! Brunswick stew was a first for me, very hearty & country, tomato based soup with veggies & fried chicken pieces, it was good! Sweet tea was perfect! Located next to a gas station so don’t miss it!

A hidden gem of a little BBQ joint. People working here are nice and the food came out fast. Pork is excellent as well as the sides. If you don’t like hush puppies give these ones a try. They remind me of fried dough. Yum.
