  • 5/5 Stars - Main Street Barbecue Main Street Barbecue solidifies its position as the premier BBQ destination in town, consistently delivering outstanding cuisine and exceptional service. The BBQ brisket sandwich is a masterclass in texture and flavor, tender and smoky, making it my go-to order. The BBQ sauce is a perfect complement, never disappointing with its rich, depthful flavor. The meat is remarkably tender and smoky, boasting the best flavor and texture I've experienced. The staff demonstrates impeccable attention to detail, ensuring seamless dining experiences. Main Street Barbecue earns its top rating through unwavering dedication to quality and customer satisfaction.

  • Road tripping and stopped here for lunch. Wow! Do yourself a favor and eat here. I had the rib plate (smallest is 6 ribs), green beans, and apple cider cole slaw. I have plenty leftover for another meal. Everything was delicious, and I am no stranger to good bbq. The mild sauce was really good, not super sweet. Waitress was a sweetie too. Will return again if in the area.

  • 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.

  • Blane was our server. He was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I had the 6-rib plate, grilled veggies and corn fritters. Everything was delicious but a little salty to my taste. My husband got the same rib plate with side salad and pinto beans. We did not get to try a dessert but will definitely go back.

  • Great place! We had a large party and they handled it with ease. Our server was great and didn't miss anything we asked for (even the extras were delivered). The pulled pork was moist and delicious without the BBQ sauce. They even do breakfast and have a drive thru!

  • 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!

  • The food was okay. Meat didn't have that good smoked taste you would expect. Mac and cheese was great. Service was very slow, but it was busy. Our server was extremely friendly and charming. The restaurant building was rustic and pleasant, fun atmosphere. Overall it did the job but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit again.

  • Pros: Best BBQ I've had in a very long time. This is a place my family visits frequently. Several sauce options, lots of variety on the menu. I've never been disappointed by the food. Cons: Don't expect your drink to be refilled unless you ask for it. Also will probably have to ask for more napkins. Overall good and I definitely recommend eating here!

  • I've had Main Street BBQ before but always as takeout. Yesterday my boyfriend and I drove from Denison to Durant to pick up some metal then decided dining in at Main Street BBQ sounded like a good plan.. We were not disappointed ? The atmosphere is great, the staff is fun and the food is always on point... I'd drive from Texas any day to enjoy their greatness?

  • The food is out standing! Huge fluffy baked potato, the sweet tea is the perfect sweetness without being syrup, wait staff is attentive and polite, and the brisket was killer! Clean, neat, good food and good atmosphere!
