Log Cabin Bar-B-Que

We traveled from 3 directions to La Belle as a central point and found the Log Cabin BBQ on-​line. It far exceeded my expectations! The service was excellent, friendly, prompt and accomodating. There were 7 of us and we were all pleased with our meals. The menu options were diverse, the food was served quickly, was fresh, hot and tasty. We will certainly go back!

Can’t wait to go back! Pulled pork was outstanding and the free soup and ice cream was a super sweet and tasty touch! Ask for Tara… an awesome waitress!

Generous portions (incl. free soup and dessert) of delicious BBQ served with a smile. Great location too.

My husband and I decided it time stop in on our way to my mother’s house. Well, we were so disappointed with the old and half baked potato, the too greasy green beans, the taste of rotten in the ribs and the service was awful because the waitress acted like she was high on something!
Absolutely the last time as we don’t like wasting our hard earned money!

Great prices, quick service, friendly staff, awesome food, free soup and ice cream. Pulled pork is to die for

Best place to eat. Staff was some of the best servers I have had in 48 states. I travel all over the US for work. The young wait staff ROCK

Always great specials, love their soup of the day, very friendly staff and owners. Just a overly great place to eat!

Really good food — at good prices. The waitress was very nice and gave us some apple sauce and crackers for our 1year old daughter to eat. Also, a free cup of soup was a nice touch. All of the food was really good taste-​wise. Only complaint was from my husband who thought his beef was a little dry. I got a combo, but next time, I would order only ribs… those were fantastic!

I’ve been going here when I visit Florida since 2011. Service is always good and the servers are all attentive. John who I believe owns the place with his dad is very friendly with his customers and always a gentleman. The food I’ve had is always very good. Breakfast as well as the salads and whatever I’ve ordered from the dinner menu. I had fish, frog legs, and shrimp last week and it was excellent. Have to say I’m not much for frog legs though. Every time I go to the Log Cabin it has many cars and bikes in the lot which also says a lot about this place. I highly recommend anybody to visit here

What an awesome place! The food was A+ and all of the staff were A++!!! If it wasn’t for prior Unilocal reviews we may not have chose the Log Cabin. Well worth it for anyone in Labelle or passing thru. I also found out they are open for breakfast and who doesn’t want a country breakfast.

Here is my 2 cents on the food and chit chat at the same time. This is a wonderful local favorite. Portions are enough to fill. Yet does not empty the wallet. The place serves all 3 eating time. They do a bbq and hometown food. I was not sure what I wanted. So I ask my server. Andre I believe was her name (excellent job). Anyway she mention the owners had been fishermen in the Keys. And that she thought the scallops were the best. So we went with that. Sauté. They were cooked to perfection with the right amount of garlic wine sauce. Plus they were tender and melted in the mouth. I also had the baked beans. Tasty with onions and a hint of green peppers. The homemade cole slaw was a delight.
The staff has to be one of the friendliest I have every encounter. Poised helpful just great. So if in the area you must try this eatery

Great place to stop for a quick bite of delicious food. I was seated and had sweet tea in under a minute, and the food was great. A plus was the servers — all were nice and listening to them talk to each other was a refreshing change from the banter in many off-​the-​beaten-​path bbq places. Will be back!

Amazing! A must stop on any road trip. Lucky locals…
I had the pulled pork sandwich that I topped with their cole slaw and spicy bbq sauce. Oh man, it was mind blowing.
Southern hospitality is alive and well!

Note: Their online menu doesn’t match the current one. Just follow the quirky Christmas lights and you’ll know you’re at Log Cabin. The parking lot is often packed during peak times with diners crammed patiently waiting a table. Remember, there’s barely any competition in LaBelle – for BBQ OR any great mom-​and-​pop dining options – so this place will be a haven regardless.
SOUTHERN CHARM
The free cup of Soup at the beginning and cup of Ice Cream at the end is a charming touch. Although many of the servers were toothy high schoolers, they worked as a team and our glasses were never empty. There was a bit of a familial feel in the air fromf those working.
BBQ NOT BAD
For the price you’ll feel full with the portions. My combo of Pulled Pork and Spare Ribs also came with two sides (I had Cheesy Grits and Applesauce) and buttered Toast. Not bad for less than $ 14. The Meat wasn’t exactly meltingly soft (which I prefer) but contained a bit of chew. Luckily the cooks restrained themselves on the seasoning allowing the real flavor of the Meat to peek through. Cheesy Grits were delicious and creamy.
Other dishes such as the Fish Chowder soup contained subtle, typical chowder flavor stuffed with floating bits. Baby Back Ribs fared better with Meat almost falling from the bone.

Came here bc of the other great reviews and we were not disappointed. Had the chicken and tried the baby back ribs and was impressed with both. Free small cup of fish soup was tasty as well as the cookies and cream ice cream which was complimentary as well. Glad we drove out of our way to get here, and would be back again!

Wow
Where to begin. Its saturday almost noon and we place a pick up order.
Show up 15 min later its not even been started because the cook has refused to make the french fries that go with the sandwiches we ordered.
Ok fine just double up the slaw.
No bbq sauce in the bag, the meat is COLD and has grease stuck to it. Garlic bread which you charged extra for not even in the second sandwich.
The slaw oh the slaw, once amazing now just pathetic dry cabbage in a cup. The sauce if there was any you won’t get.
Over all 20 bucks for 2 sandwiches made inedible without the sides ordered because at noon on Saturday you are serving breakfast but will take the phone order and handout what ever this is.

Warm and welcoming!
I was driving through this town for the first time and it was late (9:15pm). This appeared to be the only non-​chain restaurant open at the time so I called to see how much time I had left. The girl on the phone said they normally close at 9pm but 2 groups just sat down and I was good to come in and eat.
Upon entering they sat me right away and the guy said «we still have some food back there we can feed ya with» which was nice! Then they promptly gave me some soup and a mini cupcake while I read the menu!
The food was good. Anything probably wouldve been good at that time and after 2 flights. But their service and warmth also won me over.
To top it off, free ice cream afterwards too! I know Im not that special a person so you should be able to have the same experience!
Thanks guys!

Stumbled upon this wonderful restaurant during our snowbird stay. Great food and John, the owner, is so nice and pleasant. He knows how to treat customers right. You also get a free small bowl of soup and a free scoop of ice cream with every meal! Nice touch. Good is very good. Keep up the good work.

Complimentary soup of the day: creamy turkey and onion
Complimentary ice cream of the day: cookies and cream
Complimentary toy of the day: water-​activated capsule sponge that became an airplane
This place knows how to do it right!

I stopped in for brunch. With a fellow Unilocaler Paul H. He suggested going North two counties about 1.25 hours to try new locations. I got a single pancake it was unique I also liked the biscuits much more than the sausage gravy. Not complaining. Just observing the gravy was very different compared to what I called southern style. Not too thin or not to thick. Just different in a good way both consistency and flavor. I was trying to figure if cheese was added for this unique flavor. The nice girls later suggested that bad things may happen if their secret got out. So I quietly left.
