When I was pregnant with my daughter (11 years ago) I would crave BBQ from Bates and come almost daily. My family lives in Shawnee whereas I moved out of state years ago. Whenever I am home- 4 days this time- this is an absolute must eat at place. I ate two of my meals here. I also bought BBQ sauce (which they wrapped nicely) to take home in my luggage. My mom always brings me sauce from here for my own ribs to satisfy my hometown craving. Their food is the absolute best. The brothers who own the place are kind, knowledgeable, and make some yummy burnt ends. Everything is gluten free so if you have food allergies like myself you don’t have to fret. The lunch specials are always delicious. Food is hot, customer service is on point, atmosphere is authenticity fun and sassy: Bates is the BEST BBQ place in town, in my humble (and correct opinion).

Great BBQ that can accommodate Celiacs/Gluten Free. Their potato salad and ribs are amazing!! Prices are reasonable and you can order on line.
