Fincher’s Bar‑B‑Q is heading back into Warner Robins, taking over a long quiet storefront on S. Armed Forces Boulevard with an eye on an April opening. The family owned Middle Georgia chain plans to move into a former restaurant space near Robins Air Force Base, bringing its signature pulled pork, ribs and drive in style service back to that stretch of town.
Plans and timeline
Co owner Jake Fincher told What Now Atlanta the team is aiming to open at 102 S. Armed Forces Blvd in April and said they have been eyeing the block for a while because of its proximity to the base. "It was a barbecue restaurant, and we're doing the work to bring it back," Fincher told the outlet, which reported the space had been converted to other uses after the pandemic.
Space history
Commercial real estate listings show the 2,583 square foot building at 102 S. Armed Forces Blvd marketed as restaurant space, according to Crexi. Map data also points to a barbecue spot previously operating at that address before its closure, based on a local listing for Martin’s BBQ on MapQuest.
Fincher’s footprint and menu
Fincher’s currently operates four Middle Georgia locations, three in Macon and one in Warner Robins, and describes itself as a family owned business that has served the region since 1935, according to the restaurant’s website. The site highlights classic staples such as pulled pork, ribs, chicken, pork chops, burgers and sandwiches, and notes that catering and nationwide shipping are available for the brand’s barbecue.
What to expect when it opens
Fincher’s co owners say the new Warner Robins location will stick with the same straightforward formula: familiar barbecue plates, classic sides and a focus on the local customer base. "We've been doing it for 91 years, so we're going to continue doing what works," Jake Fincher told What Now Atlanta. Prospective diners are encouraged to check the restaurant’s website for official opening details and menus as the company finishes the build out.
Where to find Fincher’s now
Until the new spot opens, customers can head to Fincher’s existing Warner Robins restaurant at 519 N. Davis Dr. The chain’s locations and contact information are listed on the company’s website. Owners say catering and events remain a steady part of the business, which they expect will help keep the brand grounded as it grows into the new storefront.
