  • Great website, okay restaurant. The food is good but is lacking in good stand out flavor. The menu said they have a frosted cold mug and a lime upon request for drafts but they were out of the draft I asked for and out of limes. The service was good but you could tell she was doing the best with what management provided her with. All in all this experience is mediocre compared to Bbq in places like Florida and Texas. It’s all love though!

  • Just had lunch here and were very pleased with the delicious food and tremendous service. Our server Britta M was personable, friendly, and very thoughtful! Thank so much for a wonderful dining experience Main Street BBQ! The peach cobbler was delicious!

  • The brisket and ribs were good. The service was good. The rest was poor. The sweet potatoes fries were cold and raw. The po boy bun was straight out of package, cold n dry. The roll was cold n hard. Deffinetly NOT what I expected from the good reviews.

  • On a recent trip to Durant I took the opportunity to eat at Main Street BBQ and it was excellent. I had the sliced brisket, potato salad and BBQ beans. Everything was great. The meat was very tender and had a nice smokey flavor. I tried the hot sauce and it also was very good. It was a tad hot but not bad. The wait staff was very nice and friendly. I will return on my next Durant trip. The only issue will be what to order next time

  • Main Street is always great, they provide excellent service call a good value, and the food is always great. I have not had to worry about them messing up orders or having a bad experience here. The setup is pretty neat with brick walls, and nice decor. All in all I would highly recommend this place, it's a great local barbecue place that's very consistent and it's always great to support small town places like this that arent those big chain restaurants.

  • I really enjoy the food here. My favorite is the chopped brisket sandwich, or smoked chicken with brisket dinner. Their spicy fried green beans are my fave side. Mmm, I'm going again tonight!

  • My husband and I ate there for the first time today and we found our new favorite spot! We had a pulled pork sandwich and it was literally the best we ever had! Great looking on the inside, friendly staff. The food was served to us very quickly! Definitely will be coming back!

  • Awesome little laid back restaurant in downtown Durant. My baked potato was as big as a dinner plate, served on a dinner plate and took up the whole thing! Spicy fried green beans served with Ranch for dipping was very good. Actually everything we tried was good, but we have never had fried green beans before so they stood out for us. Got our food surprisingly quickly after ordering in spite of them being fairly busy. Very good, friendly service. We will be back!

  • The best BBQ in Durant! I love coming here! My favorite is the big stuffed baker with chopped brisket. My only complaint is that they don't have cherry cobbler very often.
