General Info

Welcome to Nick's Bar-B-Q & Catfish. Nick's Bar-B-Q & Catfish, is located on Highway 13 North in Carlisle, Arkansas, is one of the most original places in the entire area. When the founder E.C. "Nick" Ferguson opened the doors, it was with the idea that a barbecue house should combine friendly service with the proper atmosphere. The popularity of this fine eating place has proven the value of this theory. Nick founded the idea of great service from the beginning. Quite the host, it's told that he'd sit at the stool by the counter taking "folks" orders and even devised his own pulley right to the chiefs. Today, you'll find that the family has kept his recipes and the same old-fashioned service. You'll find this family tradition to be one of the best, from Nick's conveyor line to a whole new generation of serving you with down home hospitality. Here the service is cordial and quick. And the décor is completely laid-back and spacious in every detail. Specializing in authentic barbecued pork, beef, chicken and of course ribs. We also serve the finest American farm-raised and grain-feed catfish. Folks come from all around to enjoy Nick's. The menu also features your standard favorites. Dinners here will please the palates of the most particular. If you're in the mood for a picnic or catering a family gathering, you'll be greeted with the same warmth and will enjoy the finest in cuisine.
