I wanted to like Pratt's, I just can't. The first time I went in the brisket and pulled pork were far too done. Dry and flavorless and their selection of sauces couldn't revive it. Mashed potatoes were rough and pretty sure their green beans were straight from a lukewarm can. It was early on the weekend so I tried to give them the benefit of a doubt. Tried them again take out and that sealed it for me. Brisket was even worse and the ribs were tough like jerky and tasted like campfire. Fries were cold and flimsy. The staff was nice and the fried pickles are decent, but I won't be able to call Pratts my bbq place.

Really terrible food. The brisket was dry, the ribs were stringy and tough, and the sauces were awful. If you’re a BBQ connoisseur, skip this place. Also, the corn muffins were confused with vanilla cake muffins. Like, what?The second star is awarded to our waitress, who was fantastic. Sadly, the food quality was just that bad.

Waitress told us they had no brisket or beans. No problem. We ordered pork sandwiches: one got fries for side and the other orka. Wait over 20 minutes and guess what? The fries were cold, so don't understand the long wait. People have said this place has went downhill. Should have listen. Will not be back to spend money on cold food.

Pratt's is an awesome BBQ restaurant that has been at this location as long as I can remember. But not everyone knows they have all you can eat catfish on Friday evenings. I love catfish and have had it from all over the southern and eastern states. I promise you'll never find better catfish anywhere. Hands down the best... If I could give them 10 stars I would.

best fried okra I have ever eat

Simply amazing. We had the buffet for Lunch and everything on it was amazing. The fish was so flavorful and fried perfectly. The pot pie was savory and comforting. The ham- perfectly cooked and juicy. All of the vegetables were well prepared and properly seasoned. The price- even better. We will drive the 3 hours to be back!

Pratt's has THE BEST "BRISKET", outside of Texas (No Joke either)!! The portions are HUGE, and the service is AMAZING! ?? You and your belly will be happy and content after dining in or taking out!! BUT They are EXTREMELY understaffed, so PLEASE ?? be patient. It is well worth it, I promise! Even the owner is helping out, and I'm sure he's been doing things he's not had to do in many years, and is still in a GREAT mood!?? BRAVO to him and his employees for hanging in there for a job well done!Keep up the GREAT work! ??

Their food is usually good, even on the buffet. Thanksgiving not so much. Take into consideration that not normal menu and were very busy, so it was ok. That being said, would recommend dining here anytime.

Pratts BBQ is some of the best in the area. Employees are eager to help you and the smiles are free. Y'all keep up the good work.

I have been eating here for years. I have always enjoyed every meal! This is one place where I have never had bad service.
