This is a one of a kind restaurant in our area. Their food is always delicious and on point. They are fast and beyond friendly. Feels like you always eating with family.

Pig In a Poke provided lunch after a kayaking trip we took in Prestonsburg and it was delicious! We had the pulled chicken and pulled pork. The meat had just the right amount of smoke. Very yummy!

Perfect wait staff! This review was sitting in my drafts for years, I guess. I hope they reopen this location!

Friendly service. Food came out quick and was tasty. Loved the loaded potato salad. Cheesecake for desert was also great. Prices also great too.

I really like Pig In A Poke. Since moving to Louisville I wouldn't count this as one of my favorite restaurants, because Louisville just has an amazing dining scene that's hard to beat, but in Eastern Kentucky this is one of the best restaurants around! The atmosphere is really great. There's a bar upstairs with lots of booths, tables, and bar seating, as well as televisions to watch games. They have a good beer selection with several beers and at least one cider on tap at any given time. There aren't many places in Eastern Kentucky to sit and watch a game, or go have a drink with dinner, so Pig In A Poke is definitely an awesome choice if you're in the area. The staff is also great. The servers are attentive and I've never had a problem with my order, or anything else while dining there. Plus, it's really reasonably priced.
The food is also great. The barbeque is really good, I've always enjoyed it whether I got a sandwich with pulled chicken or pork, a barbeque platter served with meat and sides, or ribs. And they have lots of appetizer/bar-type foods that are great; including wings, loaded fries, potato skins (which are actually served as wedges, which I love!), mozzarella sticks, pulled pork nachos, etc.
If you find yourself in Eastern Kentucky I definitely recommend checking out Pig In A Poke. We go every time we're there.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Logan B.Lexington, KY1805984Dec 22, 2017
Very good BBQ! Ordered the chicken platter with coleslaw and fries. The fries here are phenomenal.
Plenty of food with the order and reasonably priced. Server was attentive. Definitely recommend.
Oh, they have a location in Pikeville as well.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jenny Lynn H.Cynthiana, KY68484May 25, 2019
Our waitress, Halee, was DARLING & SO FRIENDLY! She was honest and helpful and full of personality. We had fried green beans, pulled pork, pork tacos and ribs - across our family's order. Restaurant was crowded but service quick! We have had BBQ all over the South...a new stop!

If this place wasn't in the middle of the land that time forgot, it wouldn't exist. Terrible bbq. You can't call yourself a bbq restaurant and serve bbq this bad... You just can't. Ribs were literally falling off the bone... That's not a good thing folks. It means that they were wrapped for too long. They should be bite or pull off the bone. And they were somehow dry except for that terrible sauce they slathered on it, which was overly sweet and tasted like bargain brand sauce from the dollar store. Then there's the brisket. Anyone who chops their brisket or slices it thin is hiding dry, over cooked brisket. In this case, it's the former. The portions are also outrageously small for the money you pay. The only reason this place got a second star, is because our service was very friendly and attentive. The bbq however, is garbage.

What a meal! Started with the buffalo wings. Some of the best wings I've ever had. Who am I kidding, every aspect of this meal was the best I've ever had. The half rack of ribs melted off the bone. The mac n' cheese was some of the creamiest I've ever had. The baked beans were delicious. Ben the cornbread had a little something extra that made me wonder how they do it. This place was fairly busy for a Wednesday night. The staff was super friendly. Everyone seemed to know each other but I did not feel out of place being from out of town. If I had to change one thing I would offer more types of beer, but the food was so good your beverage doesn't matter.

I drive down H23 quite often & didn't even know this place existed. Definitely worth the stop. I had their pulled pork sandwich & fries ... less than $8. Great food, great service ... GREAT FIND! Will definitely go back.
