The food is delicious and the service is great and friendly. We especially enjoyed the chicken and dumplings and hush puppies. There is a big lunch rush but the line moves fast.

45 years I've been eating bar-b-que and Hog Heaven has the best of any in Durham County. Big chunks of meat. Another plus is the Southern cooked vegtables. Convenient to Duke
