Loven Fresh Baking Company

No doubt the best bbq I have ever had anywhere in the South. I'll travel from Bartlett to Oakland anytime I'm in the mood for delicious bbq.It's worth the drive. We love it.

I had no idea what to expect....I heard it was small, popular with the locals and that they had a large selection of bibles. Hey...it's the south. Might as well get saved while jammin' on some really good BBQ, right?We ordered a full rack to share-which comes with a side of baked beans, slaw and bread. We also had a regular bbq sandwich (w/slaw on it, of course).The specialty is smoky bbq...but if you don't love smoke flavor, you'll probably still enjoy their options. The ribs were "fall off the bone" tender and served as wet ribs (with a good amount of sauce). Sides were delicious and the sandwich was also just right. (FYI-the sandwich was ordered with mild bbq sauce-hot was an option as well).There are a couple of tables outside, but plan on doing takeout. The inside is tiny.... just a counter with snacks, a fridge with some options and, of course, the aforementioned bibles/books. Call in an order and peruse those shelves!!

We had to go out to Oakland for some supplies yesterday and we decided to drop in to Loven Fresh for some bbq.The second you pull up and open the car door, the aroma envelopes you! I joke with my wife all the time calling it "Real Man Cologne".It's that very aroma that permeates the pork. We got it home and I swear...there was no need for sauce! Trust me when I say there's a reason that they've been there all these years and doing well!If you have not picked up some of this bbq yet you are truly missing out!I bet it drives some of the residents in the neighborhood behind them insane when they're hungry...that smoke! If you aren't hungry, you will be once the scent hits you!

Been getting BBQ here since it opened over a decade ago and as of this week it's still great. BBQ nachos is my go to order for myself but their BBQ sandwiches are always nice too. Sides are good overall but the beans are the star side-wise. The inside is insanely small, standing room for 6 or 7 people maybe. It's carry out but there two tables outside I've never seen anyone eat at if you realllllly wanted to eat there. Only complaint is their hours. Their hours are shorter they were in the past (7pm is pretty early for closing). They also are only open Tuesday to Saturday.

Yummy!! BarBQ is delicious! Everything they make is wonderful! I love their potato salad, beans, and chili! Great food and sweet staff!

If you're looking for some of the best BBQ in town, look no further than this spot. This down-home eatery serves up mouthwatering ribs, pulled pork, and chicken that will have you coming back for more. The meats are cooked to perfection and seasoned with a special blend of spices that gives them a unique and delicious flavor.One of the highlights of the menu is the ribs. They are tender, juicy, and fall right off the bone. The pulled pork is also a standout dish, it's flavorful, and has the right balance of smokiness and sweetness. There is no dining space so you will have to eat at home. If you can make it.Overall, this restaurant offers some of the best BBQ becue in the area, and it's definitely worth a visit."

Most consistently good restaurant I've ever been to. Always top notch customer service and food!! Love this place!

%c They cook the meat on the premises. You can see the smoke. This is some of the best barbarcue I have eaten.

When we first started getting BBQ at Loven's we told all our friend it was the best. And it was. It was also consistent. I have had the BBQ plate and also BBQ ribs. All very good and seasoned just right. However, it may be the sign of the times but 2 most recent visits the BBQ was just okay. Something missing or something added? There was too many fat pieces. It kinda made my stomach turn to look at it. Just made me wonder if it is because of the way companies are cutting down. Not saying that about Loven's but wherever they purchased the pork. They recently changed days of operations but I believe they are open Wed thru Sat only. I'm

I've stopped in at this tiny to-go BBQ restaurant 3 times in as many months. It is truly a quaint place. Service is speedy & friendly. And the BBQ sandwich is among the very best!!
