Quality You Can TaSTe

Quality starts with the ingredients, but we don’t stop there. We handcraft every dish daily using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Whether it’s our house-baked buns, signature rubs and sauces, or slow-smoked brisket. Even our cocktails are crafted with care. From the pit to the plate, we serve comfort food made the right way.

The Story Of Hanks

Our culinary philosophy is pride without pretension. All of our foods are made from scratch using raw products; we bake our own breads and desserts, smoke our meats purely over HARD WOOD, and hand-cut our own steaks and seafood.

Hank’s began in a shack in Harrisonburg in the late 1980’s.  A small restaurant soon followed, serving up barbecue and southern cuisine. WE ADDED CATERING TO OUR SERVICE OFFERINGS AND opened our location in the Dayton Farmers’ Market IN 2000.

In 2002 we expanded our operation with Hank’s GRILLE & CATERING in McGaheysville.  Starting with an open charcoal pit (and a lot of blood, sweat, and tears), we have steadily improved and grown.  We’ve also built our catering business from the ground up and we’re proud to be known for excellent food and value.
