People start arriving around 10:00 a.m. on the weekdays and 9:30 a.m. on the weekends. On busy holiday weekends people will start arriving as early as 8:00 a.m.
We try to have food available until 3:00 p.m. Typically we start running out of our most popular menu items and daily specials between 1:30 and 2:30 p.m.. That being said, some days we get more than usual large group orders, and we may run out of certain items earlier than usual.
It is best to be here between 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. it allows for the shortest wait and full menu options. We recommend arriving no later than 11:30 a.m. on the weekends to have the best chance of having the full menu to order from. However, we cannot guarantee that you will always be able to order from the full menu.
No, we do not currently sell alcohol of any kind. If you are of legal drinking age, 21 years or older, and have legal identification on you, you are welcome to bring your own. Just note, our staff always reserves the right to I.D., or to ask you to remove the alcohol, if we are concerned about the situation.
No, we do not take reservations. We have one line for both dine in and same day take out food.
We ask that you do not hold spots for large groups to arrive later, or at the last minute. You’re welcome to hold a spot for a friend or two, but please be respectful of others who have been waiting in line.
We ask everyone to order and purchase their food before you seat yourself at a table. Our dining room is small but works as long as people wait to get their food first. If you are having a hard time finding a spot, please ask one of our team members to help you. If someone in your group needs assistance or needs seating before you have ordered food, please reach out to one of our team members. You are more than welcome to bring a folding chair as well.
We offer the option to skip the line and pre-order through our website at theinterstellarbbq.com. Click on the link in the upper right-hand corner labeled “order online”. There is a 72-hour cutoff window and a four pound minimum to place a pre-order. Please note that we do not offer day-of (same day) online ordering. All same-day ordering must be placed at the counter.
For orders of 30 pounds of meat or less, please place your order through the above mentioned online ordering platform. For larger orders over 30 pounds, you can reach out to the catering team through our catering page to start planning your party. We would be happy to create a custom invoice for your catering needs.
No, you do not need to wait in line. You can enter through the double doors on the right-hand side of the building. You can pick your pre-order items up at our pick-up counter. A member of our team will go over the order with you, ensuring you have everything you purchased.
Orders will include both of our sauces(red/yellow), pickles, onions, and bread. Quantities are determined by the amount of food ordered. Paper goods and serving utensils as well as extra bread and glass bottles of sauces can be purchased at an additional cost on our online ordering platform.
We offer our pre-order service option with the intention that you will be taking your food out. We have limited indoor seating and reserve those tables for dine-in guests who have been waiting in line. If there are open tables on our patio you are welcome to eat there or take the food to one of our awesome nearby shaded parks. We would be happy to give recommendations for those locations.
We currently do not take phone orders.
We currently do not offer delivery or work with any third-party services.
