Have been eating at Roy's for years and years and years. I am from Louisville, but my family is from Russellville. It's standard for us, when we visit my family, to take some Roy's home. The pulled pork is phenomenal. I really wish I knew exactly what they did to the pork to give it the flavor that it has. It's clearly marinated in something. What is the secret? But it gives it such a terrific flavor, that you can eat the pork all by itself, and it will be a fantastic meal. And the reason why this is so special is because pulled pork is usually a "meh" item at a BBQ restaurant. Pulled pork is almost always the same, for the most part, regardless of what BBQ restaurant you go to. Roy's really is special because it is so different. Furthermore, Roy's hot BBQ sauce is good enough to be bottled and sold. It's ridiculously good. Clearly a ketchup based sauce. The girl wouldn't tell me what is in it. She said that the owner makes it. Why they don't bottle it and sell it, I'll never know. I'm a BBQ snob. I've been to BBQ restaurants around this nation, and I am a harsh critic of this cuisine. I've been to Central in Memphis, Rendezvous in Memphis, Dreamland in Tuscaloosa, Arthur Bryant's in Kansas City, to name a few. Roy's pulled pork is better than anywhere I've ever eaten, and Roy's hot BBQ sauce is *probably* the second best sauce I've ever had, behind Dreamland BBQ in Tuscaloosa. Now, it's also worth noting - the rest of the items on the menu are very average to not very good. I don't think that Roy's is, honestly, that good of a restaurant. The beef and the sides are very average. If you go to Roy's, get the pulled pork with the hot BBQ sauce. That's what makes Roy's so good, and that's why they get 4*. If it weren't for these two items, then I'd have to give them a 2* for everything else. Please note: It is better to get the pulled pork "cold" and to-go. Heat it up yourself at home. Also note: They have another location on Franklin Street. Very small place, only two tables. So it is mostly for to-go orders. Marginal restaurant overall, but the pulled pork and hot BBQ sauce is as good as anywhere in the nation. Worth driving to get.

**Keep in mind I'm hard to please when it comes to real bbq** If you're expecting authentic smoked BBQ ribs with a smoke ring, this isn't the place. It seemed they boiled the ribs in a pot and put them on the grill for a bit. Fried okra and potatoe salad was good but the baked beans were below average. Now to the bad part. The service was not good. In my opinion you have to come to the table more than one time. Especially when your're not busy. Sorry guys but next time I'll bypass this joint.

So I was working on up on the cell tower up the hill. Spotted this place from 200 ft in the air and was excited to finish the work to get some lunch and experience some KY BBQ. Here's all I have to say about that - Service is poor, the server was very unprofessional and noticed she dropped a napkin roll with silverware on the floor and proceeded to carry it over to a table adjacent to ours. One thing that stood out was the fact their menu contained way too many non/BBQ items to be considered a smokehouse. The brisket I received was horrendous, drenched in some awful BBQ flavored sauce, really chewy, and smelled like a manwich sandwich. Come to think of it, I don't really think they were using the smoker out back for anything besides an attention getter. Sweet tea was not fresh, not even close! I know this isnt what BBQ is about. Let me say this about myself. I know good BBQ. I've literally traveled all over the South and have dined at some of the most famous restaurants from Florida to Texas and Missouri to the Carolinas. The previous reviews I'm sure were accurate two years ago when they posted but this is all changed and as of summer 2013 it was really sad.

Wow! This place is absolutely awesome. I went there this past Saturday night with best bud Brad S (on his recommendation), and both the food and the service was quite amazing and very affordable. I got the BBQ sampler platter ($12.99) with pulled pork, beef brisket and ribs, and chose okra and salad as sides. I have had barbeque all over the country, and this place makes the top 3, at least. Worth the drive from Claksville, TN.

I think it's safe to say that Roy's BBQ is generally accepted as the golden standard of BBQ in the Russellville/Franklin/Bowling Green area. And they totally deserve this outstanding reputation... The food is amazing whether you're dining in or ordering carry-out. The BBQ is some of the freshest, smokiest tasting I've ever had. It's indescribably good. And another important indicator of the legitimacy of a BBQ joint: baked beans. Oh. My. Goodness. They pass the test with flying colors. In fact my aunt and uncle who live in Russellville frequently bring Roy's baked beans to family gatherings. Roy's baked beans are simply impossible to beat. Service at Roy's is warm and genuine. I love a good family-run restaurant and Roy's certainly fits this description. The decor is awesome. Lots of sporting memorabilia and mounted fish hanging from the walls. Nothing too fancy, but it perfectly fits the small-town, friendly atmosphere of the restaurant. I know some people love Whitt's BBQ, but I really feel that Roy's beats Whitt's. Support the local guys, and check out Roy's BBQ. It's worth a drive to Russellville!

Pulled pork: good. Slaw: soupy. Service: excellent. Chocolate Pie: yum! Beats any chain any time. Will always eat here when in town.

Our food came out at separate times so two of my friends had to wait to eat until everyone else got their food. The food was O.K. I and a friend had a salad, two others had fish (they really enjoyed it) and my daughter had pork BBQ and thought it was O.K., nothing special. As we were eating we heard a Waitress scream and we found out that a server or cook had put a "plastic" cockroach in a Waitresses drink as a prank. (Yes, the Servers sit and eat at their own table in the same room with you.) We assume that the bug was plastic. one Waitress carried it around and showed all of the other employees. I went to the cashier and complained, telling her that it was completely inappropriate. All that I could wonder if a bug was in my food. I left and as one of my friends was paying and she saw the cashier go back to the kitchen to ask who had put the cockroach in the food but no one fessed up. My friends and I were completely disgusted and we aren't ever going back there again.
