We spilled a little Blue Ridge Room tea today… but we didn’t show you EVERYTHING. 👀
The room is coming together, private parties are already booking up (2 down already! 🙌), and tomorrow… we’re opening the curtain and showing you the INSIDE.
In the meantime:
🎤 Trivia downstairs at City Walk | 7–9 PM

It may be a gloomy, rainy day, but it’s the kind of rain we’ve been needing — and there’s no better weather for some good ole BBQ! Come on out and warm up with your favorites, and don’t forget… Fridays mean smoked meatloaf! 🔥
Also, Spring Fling may be canceled tomorrow, but don’t worry — we’ll still be here slangin’ meat all day long! Come see us and grab a plate! ☔️☔️

Big changes are coming to the Cranford Brothers BBQ… but before the construction starts, we figured we’d throw one more party in the space. 🕺🎶
So tonight only we will have a Dance Floor Music Bingo night. Expect singalongs, line dances, guilty pleasures, and songs that make you leave your seat whether you planned to or not.
And after dancing dust settles? The Blue Ridge Room becomes our brand-new private dining space at Cranford Brothers BBQ 👀
How about one dance before the transformation starts. Who’s coming?
