Our story so far... After much research throughout the States, Smokin Bones had its first outing in Herbert Park in 2014. Barbecue has grown to be a way of life for the Smokin Bones team and is much more than smoky meats and juicy flavours. Barbecue is about friends gathering together and sharing good food in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. That’s what we aim to achieve in our locations, from the head chef to your server on the floor. Thanks for your custom and we hope you enjoy your visit. Smokin Bones is 100% Irish owned and apart from visiting any of our locations you can now enjoy our great smoked flavours at home. Order online for home delivery or visit our online shop and order our unique ‘BBQ in a Box’. Barbecue at home could not be easier.

We ordered and I asked for just BBQ sauce on my pulled brisket Burger but it came fully dressed so that was the only issue I had with the food order, Its a great place staff very pleasent but the background music is a little too high for a small place . Value for money ? Id say yes as they offer a starter nacho so its a small portion enough to enjoy if ordering a main Etc.. we will return.
