Petro's Chili & Chips - Bristol

Petro’s has always been a favorite of mine and the Bristol location is no exception. We’ve been there twice already and the food has been great both times. The tea is my favorite and this location has some of the best I’ve had. Chips and Queso are also a family fave. Shout out to Emily and Beth at this location for their upstanding friendliness and customer service!

Love Petro's but have always gone to one in JC. First time trying this one, it was superb! Gal at windows was charming, food was hot, tons of toppings on the BBQ chicken baked potato! WONDERFUL!

I am editing my review after returning on several occasions for lunch, since my last review. I have reordered my usual several times and each time has been spot on. Tastes amazing and the customer service, even from the start has always been on point. Everyone is always friendly and that goes a long way in itself. I have friends who are also telling me things seem better since the opening! I debated on reviewing but when I compare this to Johnson City TN, where I have ate their many times, I was left disappointed. I took a friend that has never tried this before and I raved about how good it was. That this one was new in town. I ordered my go too, the medium pulled pork BBQ petro, my friend ordered a Buffalo chicken petro, then ordered two loaded baked potatoes and a chili cheese dog for someone else. My complaint was the food. The service and kindness from the staff were on point. I had a literal sprinkle of pulled pork on top. No BBQ that I could taste and not even a fork full of meat. My friend with the chicken was similar. My bowl was literally only chili and chips, that was basically it. So that was disappointing, considering the price for the bowl. Potatoes looked good but were not mine to eat. The chili cheese dog we paid for was sadly not in our bag. We did not discover this until 20 minutes away. So, I am hopeful because this place is new, they will get it together. I understand flukes happen and everything. I hope the employees weren't trained to put the smallest portion of meat in the petro bowls. If so, the portions need to honestly be adjusted.

We love trying out new places. This was our first visit and didn't know what to expect, but based on the reviews we decided to try it! Megan who took the order and served at the window was very friendly. We tried one small original Petro each, and also had the nachos. It was a lot of food, but we just wanted to try both. We had one original nachos with olives and one with chicken, olives and jalapenos. Honestly, the original Petros seemed to be missing something, not sure what. Maybe a little more spice? It was good, but just seemed a little bland. I'll probably try the Baja next time to see what it tastes like with salsa? The nachos were very good. A large portion, with excellent-tasting queso, and jalapenos were not too spicy. Wife liked the Petro's Ice Tea with orange. All of the toppings in the food seemed very fresh. A nice change from all of the burger joints. We will return to try other items!

The staff is so nice and friendly and just amazing! I got the Pulled Pork BBQ Loaded Potatoe (without jalapenos or black olives) and it was so scrumptious!! The hint of orange sweet tea was a refreshing addition to my afternoon! So yummy! Also, the staff blessed me today with how amazing they are! Such an awesome addition to Bristol!!

The original Petro was delicious and the hint of orange tea is refreshing and unique. It’s nice that they have vegetarian options and the food tastes fresh.

Staff was extremely friendly and the original Petro chili was great. They also gave my dog 2 treats and he had no complaints at all. A nice new addition to Bristol!

Line moved quickly, staff was very pleasant. Order of loaded baked potato and wedge salad with blue cheese was best I've had! Surprised since staff is still in soft opening mode! Food was fresh and wonderful!
