Poppy's - Stratford

Great food !! very friendly staff! very clean! good kids menu!

After viewing the photos on Yelp I was really looking forward to trying this place out. Upon arrival I learned that they no longer prepare barbecue, the dining traffic just wasn't enough to sustain it I tried the blueberry chipotle burger, a side of fries and an order of hush puppies. The blueberry part was simply a flavored balsamic that the burger was fried in. There wasn't any chipotle to be had on the burger unless you tried one of the sauces available in the dining room. The finished product did not look anywhere near the burger in the photos above. Good idea, just lacking substance. The fries are nothing to write home about. The kind that are fried in oil utilized for other items. Two dollars get you five or six hush puppies that are prepared with caramelized bits of onion. The overall dough flavor is bland. Slivers of jalapeño and sweet corn would've been a great accent. It's a better burger than the truckstop but at eight dollars?

Great brisket ! Pulled pork is good, but the brisket is phenomenal. I drive a big truck, and eat Bar-b-Que from all over. The brisket is top 3 I've had. price is reasonable, and about 2 blocks from pilot.

This place is a highly popular lunch destination in this small town. We visited during a road trip, and the food was fantastic, with exceptional service! I would definitely stop by again if we pass through. If you have some time to relax and stretch your legs, it's an excellent option. However, if you're in a hurry, you might want to keep driving, as the freshly made food can take a bit longer.

The restaurant offers a diverse selection of BBQ dishes in a pleasant atmosphere, complemented by friendly staff. I would definitely return and highly recommend it to others.
