Slows Bar BQ

A few blocks west of Tiger Stadium, in a meticulously revamped 1880s building, Slows caters to a mix of hipsters, folks from area businesses, and suburban brewheads. Slows has excellent barbecue, a Mac and cheese that's a satisfying combination of sharp and creamy, and potato salad that could have come straight out of an Alabama picnic basket. There's a generous list of appetizers, salads, sandwiches and soups, including chili, and gumbo with andouille and shellfish.
