Swett’s BBQ

I travel a lot and I'm always hesitate of Airport food...This place was a total surprise!!Authentic Southern Soul Food in the Nashville Airport...Affordable. Delicious.You get your moneys worth...My plate of pork BBQ, carrots and greens plus a drink was about $16.00Thats very affordable in any airport!!Bonus.. Good God above!It was great food!!Plus the girls behind the counter are very friendly and super helpful!

Exceeded my expectations. I was hesitant about the ribs being so much more $ ($21.50 vs $13.50 for others), but they gave me 5 ribs. They're surprisingly like Chinese sweet sticky ribs in flavor and sauce thickness but bigger. The cheddar broccoli had a lot of cheesy rice that I liked more than I thought I would. Baked beans were good, on the sweet side too. Dinner roll was small but soft and enjoyable. Everything was much warmer than expected. Very filling.

A little expensive because they know they got you at the airport. I did asked for two types of meat though. So I kinda did this to myself. The brisket was awesome. Especially for a place that serves you out of warming trays. Brisket had no fat on it. Tasted like it was actually smoked. The food was really hot. Maybe because I'm a yankee I don't know good BBQ. I see this place has only 3 stars but I thought it was delicious. So I'm sorry this northern boy was impressed by your least common denominator. Oh wait I never got my biscuit! Ugh.

I was famished when I arrived in Nashville. Word was it would be 6 hours before I would be having dinner so I stopped in for a sandwich. The staff was exceptionally friendly and suggested the pulled pork sandwich. This was decent BBQ for an airport. Good flavor, tender and juicy! Great airport BBQ. Quick service and a lot of offerings. I wanted to try more, but stuck with the sandwich. The price was what one would expect at an airport. Nothing fancy and great to grab and run to your gate or in my case, run to the rental car.

Solid brisket here .. smoked til tender as shown by the thick pink ring on the meat. The stars of the show here were the sides: loaded potato casserole (cheese, bacon and sour cream ) and delicious tender turnip greens. 1 protein and 2 sides were $15 a good deal for an Airport!

Not sure why the low reviews for this place. It's barbecue food in the airport so it's not going to be anything fancy, but for the price point and what you got, I thought it was fair.I did the one meat plate with pulled pork, mashed potatoes, and fried apples. I regretted getting the fried apples afterwards because I saw they had sweet potato casserole and a few other sides that were more desirable to me. It was $13.99 and very filling.The barbecue sauce on the pulled pork was delicious, surprisingly. Mashed potatoes were not gourmet but were also good. The fried apples were just okay.You can also get a meat plate with three sides or you can add meats, I thought I had initially ordered a two meat plate but that's actually not an option and the employee told me that to add ribs would be $6 so I opted not to do that.I was going to eat at Shake Shack but I figured I could get that at home anytime so I'm glad I stopped by here. There are some bar stools and tables right next to it as well or you can bring your to-go box to your gate and eat it there.

Yikes! The lady tried to charge me $7.10 for an off brand bottle of water. I told her I would like to cancel the order, as I know other places have it cheaper. She replied, "good luck," and some other things that were not appropriate. Went down a few spots and got the same thing for $3 cheaper with excellent service.

Tried this place for breakfast. I think it's better than currently rated. I had a breakfast plate with eggs, biscuit with gravy, hash brown casserole, and chicken tenders. It was a solid 4/5 for airport food, especially considering price which is pretty cheap. Super quick service as well. I would consider getting it again.

Good BBQ, school cafeteria sides. My brisket was good and smoky. The BBQ sauce is far too sweet. At least, it doesn't stick to the meat. The mashed potatoes were OK. The rest of my sides, corn, carrots and mixed vegetables, were overcooked and unseasoned. The tiny pepper packet was insufficient for my potatoes, let alone the rest of my meal.Go only if you're gluten free and are unwilling or unable to hike to terminal B for poke or sushi.

You could spend $16 on a soda and a few small pieces of sandwich in a plastic container...or you could drop the same amount on a soda and huge portions of delicious hot food here. Friendly service and tasty food!
