What an incredible place, I loved the food and service. My son and I simply love the food and the atmosphere. Ms Mabel is very friendly and welcoming. Great place, can wait to try their jumbo shrimp and brisket!

Absolutely Delicious!
My husband and I recently visited Mabel’s Barbeque, and it was hands-down one of the best soul food dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and the comforting aroma of home-cooked goodness.
The food was incredible — the ribs were perfectly seasoned, hearty, and full of flavor. The breaded mushrooms were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, the potato salad was creamy and rich, and the collard greens tasted just like something your grandma would make on Sunday. Everything was clearly made with love and care.
The service was just as wonderful as the food. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and Ms. Mabel herself sat and chatted with us!
If you’re looking for authentic soul food that hits all the right notes, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back when we’re in the area — and next time, we’re saving room for dessert!

Mabel’s is undoubtedly THE BEST soul food restaurant I can find in my area. Everything I order reminds me of my childhood and my grandmother.
Favorite dishes: fried pickles, fried catfish ❤️❤️, fried wings, bbq ribs, and the sweet potatoes.
The last time we were there, we sampled a new addition to her menu and O-M-G. It is the perfect blend of sweet potatoes and cornbread and it was so good o had to write my name on mine to keep the kids from eating all of it. Run – don’t walk – to try this cornbread!!
Tip: order in advance online

Best ribs I’ve had in a long time. Not a super strong smoke, but perfectly done and masterfully finished with a nice char so you get a slightly crunchy bite. The owner is very engaging and charming. Everything is home made. Zero factories involved here. Pure love of food.

Food: 5/5
Hidden Gem in West Chester.
This is my first time visiting Mabel’s with my girlfriend, but not the first time I’ve had Soul Food. With that being said, it is definitely one of the BEST Soul food places I have ever visited. With that being said the restaurant isn’t big, only has 2 or 3 sit down tables. But that will not stop us from going again, was not expecting a 5 star looking restaurant went there for delicious food and that’s exactly what we got.
Service was prompt, we ordered 20 minutes ahead for pick up and it was ready by the time we arrived, in and out in less than 2 minutes.
You get 2 sides with your entree, also very reasonably priced (Considering the portion of food you get). Not to mention it is ABSOLUTELY Amazing. Everything is seasoned and flavorful.
What we ordered:
1/2 Ribs
Fried Whiting Fish
Sides 1: Green beans, sweet potato.
Sides 2: Collard greens, potato salad.
Highly recommended.

Walked in one a random Sunday never had been there before a very nice lady came over and helped us decide what to get off the menu. After ordering we was told we would have to wait 20 mins which seemed ok for a restaurant and it was done in less time then that. But after eating there we wish we got even more food to try it was hands down the best ribs I’ve had in years and my gf said she’s never had chicken that good.

I’m glad I found this place! Omg it’s the warmest atmosphere, nicest decor and the best staff to have for ANY business. It was VERY Welcoming. Now on to the food….I ordered Fried Chicken Wings, Collard Greens, Yams and a piece of cornbread. I’m going into detail cause it matters…so wings? FIRE! I asked for them to be fried hard and they were. Nicely seasoned and crispy. U can tell they clean their chicken well and the grease was still clean even at ordering 30 mins before close. The grease on the chicken did NOT taste like it was burnt or old . Yams were perfect. It tastes like how ALL Yams should. Sweet, soft, “syrupy” and not undercooked. No Yams should have a crunch. Greens were good as well! Perfectly seasoned yet again. Only thing I would change if any (and this is just for me) is to remove some of the greens water but again VERY tasty and I ordered almost at the close of business. Cornbread has excellent flavor. A little on the dry side for me but I would still order it because it has good flavor. If i took it home i would just add butter and BOOM! All and all…I WILL be coming back and trying some other dishes. I appreciate the warm welcome, service AND the FOOD. Oh and they have their own sauce! THAT was tasty as well…I would use that on my ribs or something next time. It’s just not for my chicken. Food is even priced at the right price point to not feel overcharged. I spent under $20 for the entire platter. 10/10 from me. NGL

BBQ……… You are now entering THE SOUTH!!!
( It’s right next to the Dunkin Donuts in West Chester, Great Pumpkin, and Capriotti’s)
Someone recommend this place a few days ago and I was a bit leary because I spend summers down south and am pretty picky when it comes to BBQ and Southern style food. I wanted to order and help out because before Friday they had been struggling like many small local businesses have been and just reopened Friday. They definitely need community support through this !!
Ordered over phone. Super friendly and you could tell busy. Easy pick up… Pull up, call back to tell them you are there and they bring it out curbside !
The food …
Anyone who frequents down South knows they pride themselves on their BBQ. And yes up here it’s hard to find true Southern bbq and food. Well, Mabel’s nailed it ! I don’t know Mabel or if she is from the South but her food screams authentic and dedication.
Anyone who really loves BBQ knows that it takes TIME. A lot of places rush good food and good takes TIME to get flavors like this. You will taste it the minute you bite into any of her food. The bbq chicken has flavor all the way through. The baked beans have a smokey kick, maybe peppers ? But the best baked beans I’ve ever had in my life !! Sweet potatoes that are like my Mom’s !!! Corn bread, Cole slaw, hush puppies, brisket, Mac and cheese and more! Some of the things I couldn’t try because I can’t do gluten but the rest my family raves about !!!!!! My 11 year old LOVES hush puppies and said they were REALLY GOOD!!
If you love barbeque… Help this place out !! They have taken the time to do southern food right and you will definitely be back ! Thanks Kevin Schmied for giving the thumbs up ! You were right !!! Best place BY FAR!!
I believe they are open Friday through Sunday 2-7. Not sure during this if they have changed so be sure to call and check.
And please don’t forget to tip!! These staff members are hustling and exhausted… Make sure they know you appreciate them too 🙂

Best pulled pork sandwich ever! Also their beef brisket is amazing! And finally the ribs are to die for!! Not a fast food joint, so don’t expect to be in and out in 5 minutes! But 100% worth the wait!
