The story of BubbauQue’s goes way back to the 1950’s. A young couple, Ethel and Jed gave birth to their only child—Bubba. Bubba and his future business partner became friends since the very childhood. The two friends were growing up in the atmosphere of the southern hospitality and tradition of inviting friends over for a good meal. The best memories though were the BBQ, organized every Sunday by Bubba's father, Jed. Bubba wanted to learn his father's cooking skills and continue the tradition of BBQs; and that's how BubbaQue's came to life.

BubbaQue's emulates the renowned culture of southern hospitality with a cheerful, welcoming atmosphere and a menu of hearty, southern-style barbecue. Its chefs slow-smoke premium cuts of pork, beef, and poultry to create mouthwatering sandwiches and barbecue specialties— including the barbecue wings that won them the champion title at Lakeland's King of the Wing competition. The chefs utilize their barbecuing expertise to create seven different types of sauces, with flavors ranging from spicy to smoky to sweet.

Out in the dining room, baskets of barbecue and bottles of beer speckle wooden picnic tables. The restaurant decor is lively—with colorful knickknacks, playful signs, and zero marble busts of a glowering Andrew Jackson.
