At Tipton's, we pride ourselves on our use of the finest ingredients to cook our award-winning barbecue. We use only the finest pork picnic shoulders and best chicken raised here in North Carolina. Our use of select hickory and special combinations of wood gives our barbecue its unique flavor. In true Lexington style, we serve our pork shoulder simply with our secret "dip" poured over it. Add one of our three tables sauces and dig in!

Best food in Town

powerbot

oh simpletee **** what are you talking about. I go here often as does everyone else. Ha you would be a red neck from wilkes county who thinks it's not good. Jeez. Trust me ppl it is the best Q you will eat. Probably not dry enough for old simple. Been reviewed by all the big smokers and it gets better ratings than anyone else around. Go get some more meth Simple. Guys this guy is a joke don't believe anything he says. And simple hit me a PM I will show you what good Q is. You might be the main course.

Best bbq in the county. IMO

I have to say I love the pulled chicken. You can't find it anywhere and the hickory red sauce is the best. I like Lexington style although it may not be for everyone, but if you like tomato and vinegar then you got it going on. Also the staff is easy on the eyes.

We love the Potato Salad, and the Ribs. Spicy and delicious.

I went last week and had the sandwich and some Onion Rings YUMMY. Dude you must of had half of it fall off your sandwich cause they serve a quarter pound sandwich and slaw on top of that. It is the biggest BBQ wich around man. Love it. Like a 5 inch bun with all that on it. Stellar. The Onion Rings are to die for, the sauce is the best thing ever. Anyway, we love it, not just for the Q but for the variety as well. Tipton's is one of the best in the area.

One of my 3 favorite restaurants in the county! Love the burgers, and love the barbecue! Especially the pulled chicken barbecue, which is very hard to find in this area.

Watered down sauces? Never had that there. Maybe because you like kc style sauces. I think it's some of the finest Lexington Style BBQ I have ever had. I find it comical that the people in the area think BBQ should be that KC crap. You should taste the MEAT, not the sauce. Anyway, I had a great experience, it's the only place in town that actually cooks in a pit with Hickory. The pork is delicious, the smoked chicken is the best chicken I have ever eaten, and the Ribs are soooo good

analyze this

food was cold,bad service. watered down sauces.

MARIES WORLD

TRYING GOING BETWEEN 8 P.M. AND 9 P.M. MY FAMILY MADE THAT MISTAKE. WE WERE SEATED TOWARDS THE BACK BY THE SALAD BAR.MY HUSBAND AND I ORDERED THE SALAD ALONG WITH OUR MEAL. AFTER GOING UP TO THE SALAD BAR, A YOUNG MAN COMES OUT WITH A BOTTLE OF WINDOW CLEANER AND STARTS SPRAYING OPENLY THE SALAD SHIELD WITH THE SALAD ITEMS SITTING BELOW,WON'T BE BACK

now come on allysshhha. I was right next to your table that night. You were just pissed that your man kept checking out the hot staff. I heard what you said to him and then how you acted afterwards. Post a true review. best bbq in this area and as for tasteless that's one thing it is not.

Note from GoWilkes- a portion of this review was removed for personal attacks.

the service is awful! they could care less if you have service.the food is blah and tasteless! the most ho hum atmosphere ive ever had! totaly boring and drab!wont be back! btw, a suggestion here,if the waitress's would stop entertaining each other and pay attention to their customers ,your tips would be better!on the other hand,why bother!

Zparker

I have went there 3 times since i have been here 3 weeks.

First trip- perfect

2nd- cold spots in the bbq.

3rd - taste like it was super salted.

I love bbq..Tiptons is good. just seems like they could do more with what they have.

they should redo their bbq sauces. they are weak and all taste the same.

mhonline

b-b-q is pretty good. I love the potato salad.
