Your Oneonta

An institution. If you have friends or family visiting, make sure to bring them to Brooks. Best known for their chicken (the sign out front will tell you as much) they also offer two kinds of ribs, steaks, chicken spiedies, bbq pork and beef, trout, and a salad bar nearly as famous as the chicken. If you don't believe me, just ask a local about the cole slaw.
You can visit the sauce bottling facility while you are there, or peek on on the gigantic indoor pit, but the food comes first. Closed Mondays and the very occasional holiday.
