We have had 2x Birthday celebrations and family dinners at the BBQ Den Smokehouse, so so happy with the food which was absolutely delicious trying most of what was on the menue, customer service was spot on. Troy took the time to talk to us and recommend some of his cocktails that were truly unique. The smoker is a great talking point which Troy was happy to answer our questions. I would greatly recommend The BBQ Den Smokehouse for a unique dining experience. Well done Troy and staff you have come a long way from when you first opened. 5/5 for an amazing experience.

Just tried "The BBQ Den" burger barn, and wow! It's the perfect mix of soft and sturdy, holding all the juicy goodness without falling apart. The flavor has a subtle smokiness that really enhances the burger. Plus, chatting with the owner was a pleasure—super friendly and clearly passionate about their craft. Definitely a five-star experience!

My husband and I came here tonight for our 8 year anniversary, I called Troy to make sure they had space for us and told him what tonight was for. We showed up to a table already set up for us with some wine and a box of chocolates the food was amazing as was the service! We are definitely coming back

Had a really great meal. The food came out quickly, they weren't too busy. Tried the pulled pork and the brisket. Both were perfect and full of flavour. Service was great, the girl was very friendly. They could work on the ambience a little. Everything was clean. We will definitely be going back soon.
