The store is awesome looking and service was great, we selected this place while traveling on our spring break road trip from Jacksonville Florida, and it was a 2.5 hour wait. I got the rib plate 3 sides baked beams awesome , slaw great , corn bread good. All 3 sauces was good. Fried potatoes good , corn on cob ok, Ribs wasn’t that good to me, they was cooked in the oven not on a smoker or bbq grill and texture was tough and chewy. My wife had bbq sandwich she enjoyed it with pickles and slaw. I love trying ribs all over the south and in Florida it’s a big standard to BBQ ribs. I’d not recommend the ribs at all here. Sweat tea was also Great. Prices are good also.

We love trying local, hole in the wall restaurants, and we weren't disappointed! The pork was delicious, and so was the cornbread. Our favorite was the tangy BBQ sauce. The staff were very friendly!

We ate in the little dining area and because it was a cloudy day the sun couldn't heat it up and the heaters were on but they couldn't warm it up. Because of the wonderful polish dog being so messy we couldn't eat in the car so it wasn't our normal good experience but we will certainly go.back because they have the best burger in Gadsden

Quaint little restaurant. Kind of out of the way but very popular. We haven’t found anything on the menu that wasn’t excellent. Stuffed baked potatoes, BBQ, chicken fingers. The BBQ salad is a great choice. My favorite is the cheese burger and fries. I’m a picky eater and I have tried e dry item listed above and would recommend every one. The staff is always friendly and the service is exceptional.

found this place using my waze app , went to another place and waited for someone to ask me for my drink order and take my order , and it only had a couple folks already eating. nothing. after about 10-15 minutes I left , looking for another place. saw merrill's on the list , and glad I did . unfortunately they were out of ribs but a local customer said they had great hamburgers. so I tried one and he was correct. not saying it was the best , but was really close. Will stop again when I'm in the area and looking forward to trying their ribs

The food was delicious! Our favorite thing was the roast beef sandwich, better than Arby's. The BBQ pork was very tender, and the sauce was perfect. The hamburgers were good, traditional, and tasty. I wouldn't say they were the best hamburgers we've ever had, but they were good. The onion rings were amazing, but I was hoping we would have gotten more of them. It's definitely worth a try, and we will be back.
