My husband and I like to go to Fincher's for a quiet meal when we want barbecue. Besides the barbecue, they have great fries, stew, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, iced tea, and the service is great.

I am a sucker for a good bbq joint. I've had Texas style bbq in Atlanta and Texas, amazing bbq in Memphis, Kansas city was great and so on. I wanted to like this place. It is a local staple with history and multiple locations. I read several good reviews. I am now asking myself, what were they thinking? This was the worst bbq I have ever eaten. I ordered a large pull pork sandwich with Coleslaw, a rib dinner with Brunswick stew and slaw. The pull pork had no smoke flavor, full of vinegar sauce and looked like it was cooked in the sauce. The consistency was mushy. The ribs had no flavor, no rub or smoke. They tasted oven baked. A house made bbq sauce would have been great instead of the high fructose vinegar sauces. The Cole slaw was plain, no creativity or taste. The Brunswick stew was watery. I almost ordered the potato salad until I was told it has sour cream in it. Who does that? Needless to say I won't ever ever go back.

Does anyone remember an African-American man who worked at Fincher’s for mini mini years in the past?

A Macon tradition. It doesn't get any better than Fenchers. Super tender pulled pork, with the perfect bbq sauce. Then the Brunswick stew is the bomb. Oh, it's good.

Wow. First time at this Fincher's. Same great quality. Excellent food. Fast. Delicious barbecue and at an awesome price!

Man oh Man ……every time I’m in Macon I’m gonna make this place my stop for lunch. Black owned business gets the thumbs up. They were super nice to the old man……now I have a full stomach on my way back to Atlanta. All your house flippers out there……stop by the place and grab you a plate.

Awesome meal. Good prices. You should definitely try to get there. 75 years of history and excellent service and experience with BBQ. Sauce is to die for!

Fincher‘s barbecue is my favorite. it’s not heated up out of the bag. I can still come to Houston Avenue and park under the pavilion Enjoy the peace and quiet. and reminisce of the car shows that used to be here back in the day. May God continue to bless the owners and family and employees of Fincher‘s barbecue.

Gross nasty Brunswick stew. Taste and smell like cat food there were no vegetables. It was the consistency of catfood. I was told it was good but I was lied to. I got enough to feed 6 people and we ended up having to pick up fried chicken because no one ate the stew. I DID FEED IT TO my cats and they ate it like I popped open a can of cat food. Do not recommend at all.

Good food. Not enough hours
