Google Review
Among the many Google Reviews, Local Guide Raymond -Kenny- Wimberly lives a day’s drive away and dreams of when he can get back to Ward’s Bar-B-Que on Alice Dr.:
The absolute best bbq and hash and rice in the county, or really anywhere. I have been here many times in the last 25 years and have never had a bad experience with regards to service or food quality.
The food is simply delicious. I cannot wait to go back! Too bad I live nearly 8 hours away :-(.
Yelp Review
Ward’s BBQ is awesome! I go there every time I am in Sumter, the same lady waits on me each time! LOL
Get take out — because this is just a very BASIC restaurant — their dining area kinda looks like a deli. The BBQ is fresh, tender, and melts in your mouth.
It’s vinegar-based and not overly seasoned, so always ask for extra sauce.
I really go for their hash. I don’t know how to describe it as anything other than delicious.
My sister likes the sandwiches with BBQ and coleslaw. And their hush puppies are tasty treats.
They have a VERY busy lunch counter, so don’t expect anything other than “Can I help you?” from the staff, but if you explain what you want, you will be fully accommodated.
They are actually quite nice, just busy.
If you like vinegar-based BBQ, you won’t be disappointed here!
