First time visiting, we ordered Linebacker because we can try both brisket and pull pork. The two sides were coleslaw and cream corn. I like the spicy BBQ sauce. It added more favor to the meat. The brisket pieces were thick and I can use the fork to cut them into pieces. I did not taste smoke flavor on the meat. I just added a lot of bbq sauce. The coleslaw was okay. Cream corn, the corn seems old but the cream was good. The serving side could be little more. They have most of NFL games which was nice. Price is typical BBQ place $18-$20 for sandwiches. The combo is $35-$50. The service was good. She was very sweet. Parking is in the back. The inside feels like other sport bar but serve Kansas City bbq.

Stan's Bar-B-Q is a great place to watch a football game. Thank you for the AMAZING BBQ!! Great service! Leif made perfect drinks!

Right as we were given the menu, we were also given an apologetic estimation for when food would be served. Love the honesty and clear communication of expectations. Then when the food came. Delicious! Tried it with the accompanying bbq sauce and just scooted the tub off to the side. Didn't need it and actually detracted from the perfect smoke flavors pouring off the brisket. Definitely a place to return to! Great bbq and great service!

You need to go to this place!!! Worth the drive if you're not in the area! The meat is smoked so well I didn't even want to put BBQ sauce on it and I love BBQ sauce! Between my wife and I, we had Baby back ribs, burnt ends (brisket and weekend special), smoked wings, baked beans, potato salad, cream corn, and each plate came with buns. It all was so good! They serve Kansas City BBQ and I kid you not, the burnt ends flavor and sauce triggered a memorable experience I had eating BBQ in Kansas City years ago. My favorite item was the Baby Back ribs. They were plenty full and tasted even better the next day when I ate the left overs. The chicken wings were perfectly smoked and packed a great flavor. Cream corn sauce could have been a little thicker for my feel, but still my second favorite flavor item on the plate after the ribs. Potato salad mixed with some bbq sauce made it out of this world. The owners were there and were great people. They really made us feel welcome. The bartender/waiter was a super nice guy as well. There is plenty to do around them as well. We took a walk through the cute town and plenty of hiking. Highly recommend!

What a gem! We fell in love with the dry rub on the ribs. I also loved the baked beans, so much so I ate my husband side too! We loved talking to the owners, Tyson and Amanda. They were so kind and truly offer outstanding customer service. With all the options around, this place is one you do not want to miss out on!

I love to eat great food! One of my favorite foods to eat is bar-b-que. I've been all over the US eating various regional styles from Carolina to Texas to Kansas City and place in between. Stan's is a great place in an area that you don't expect to find Texas style. Normally you think of a chain restaurants in the suburbs. Fortunately, they are just a few minutes away from home. Since this was my first visit, I chose the mixed platter that had brisket, ribs and pulled pork. It had some vegetable side dish, which I ignored since I was there for the meat. The brisket was excellent! Juicy and full of beefy goodness. The ribs were just as good! Lots of smokey flavor (not over smoked) and a nice dry rub. The pulled pork was good, but a little dry. The bun on the side was not memorable, but when I'm eating bar-b-que I don't really pay attention to the side dishes. Service was excellent! Quick greeting and seating. Attentive server, with quick delivery of the food and a consistent check on us throughout our meal. Please note, on busy nights the parking can be difficult. There are 6 restaurants all together on Front Street, so you may have to circle the area to find a parking spot. Behind the library is a good place for parking, but again when it's the dinner hour on a Friday or Saturday, you may have to circle around. Overall, a great place to eat with great service.

Super tasty! We tried the burnt ends and jalapeno sausage, they were both great, and the house BBQ sauce had a nice kick. Staff was very friendly and enthusiastic, even on Christmas Eve! Definitely recommend.

Came here with my best friend Andrew as its his favorite bbq restaurant and place to eat in Issaquah after growing up nearby in Sammamish. When we arrived we were informed a comedy show was about to start which was the perfect addition to our plans. I ordered a half pound of the burnt ends with potato salad, a jalapeno and cheddar beef link, and a glass of woodinville rye and my friend had a pulled pork sandwich and Mac & Jack's African amber. Food was all tasty and high quality. Iv been missing good bbq after living in the bay area. For the comedy show both openers and the headliner were all funny. Paul Goodwin joked about his hill billy conservative family growing up in Mississippi and using a giant dildo instead of a gun for home defense, Ev Jenson talked about being trans and transitioning and being a stoner, and Kermet Apio was partway into a good set when a drunk old lady heckler derailed everything talking about how she saw him preform over 30 years ago. After not knowing what she was even on about he pivoted to throwbacks of some of his 90s jokes he does remember and jokes about Hawaiians loving spam which this lady kept asking about. He managed to finish the night strong and the whole place cheered when this lady finally left near the end. Downtown issaquah is always one of my favorite places to walk around and this is a great spot to eat and catch a show in a really small intimate venue. Plenty of free parking after closing at the library across the street.

Excellent BBQ! The best pulled pork I've had. The ribs were cooked well and the meat fell off the bone. Do yourself a favor and get the creamed corn as your side. Our waitress was stellar and kept me tipped off in tea and BBQ sauce. A great casual environment to talk and eat with friends. I enjoyed the Kansas City decor of the restaurant. Let's Go Chiefs!!!
