College Barbecue

We went for breakfast on a Saturday morning. It was my first time coming here, and it is so cute! If it was busy, we probably would have had trouble finding a table, but we got lucky. The wait staff was exceptionally nice and attentive, I gave four stars because we waited quite a while for our food. The wait was definitely worth it, as it was delicious. Definitely want to come back for lunch or dinner as it was extremely affordable. Great spot!

Pretty doggone yummy! Clean, neat, & busy. I got a bbq sandwich & fries. The fries came out in a basket so lots of good, crispy fries. I want to start with this: I have a sensitive mouth/tongue so what is no heat to you may be warm to me. I like red slaw but I get it on the side just in case. (I can feel a grain of pepper a mile away. lol). For those like me, it's a low & slow heat, maybe from the cabbage core. Not bad though. The red slaw itself was tasteless. That was the ONLY drawback here. I had to give a 5☆ for everything else. Also, they have lots of other foods/food types you can choose

TLDR: A true Carolina classic with great barbecue, retro diner vibes, friendly service, and prices that seem frozen in time. College Bar-B-Que in Salisbury, NC is one of those rare places that truly captures the heart and history of Carolina-style barbecue. This spot has been around for what feels like forever, and it’s been dear to me since my college days at nearby Catawba College. Back then, my friends and I would come here often for lunch or bring our parents for a comforting Southern meal. It’s a place that has something for everyone, and thankfully, it has stayed remarkably true to its

Absolutely love this place. The food is fantastic. Got the bbq plate and it comes with beans, slaw, or you can do French fries and hush puppies. The bbq is perfectly smoked and it's Lexington style. The have a vinaigrette type sauce. It has a slight kick which is delicious. It reminds me of a old dinner. Love the inside of the restaurant. The staff is all extremely friendly. It's a smaller restaurant so it fills up fast but you still don't have to wait long. Absolutely amazing place. Highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the Salisbury area.
