Fire Pit Grill

Absolutely blown away by the quality of this barbecue place. Everything we ate was juicy and tender. The beef short rib is easily the best I've eaten, with a mustard-dill sauce that brought together the smoke and the fat beautifully. Be warned though, it's not for the light of appetite. It came up as two short ribs with a generous amount of meat on each. A short rib dish as a main is usually one rib, and rich enough to be plenty! We (two hungry people) shared this and a Smoke Pit House platter for one and it was too much between us. The cocktail menu is theatre in itself and I wish I'd been able to try a few more because each is different and in its own way fabulous. The rubber ducky is memorable. Staff-wise everything went perfectly smoothly even for a large and chaotic table. They were brilliant from first order to last morsel.

Great atmosphere and great food I had the cow,chicken and pig burger with a side of onion rings, it arrive nice and hot did not look alot BUT I struggled to finish the meal. If your looking for a quiet place for a meal this is not for you as it was a great place for going with a crowd as I did the service was great and was not left wait for the next drink very attentive staff.

If you're looking for a BBQ experience with great size portions, and some funky design work as decoration, look no further than The Smoke Pit. Food is very, very tasty, varied and plentisome too. Staff are super attentive and polite too. Good choice of drinks, ales, cocktails and cocktails on the menu. Advise to book a table ahead of arriving as the place can be very busy, even on a week day. Handily located in the centre of town and lots of other bars nearby Parking only available in neighboring streets, but not too difficult to find. The blue cheese dressing is with the £2 per portion. Mondays is bottomless wings and ribs... So if you're feeling brave and really hungry, give it a go

This place was recommended to us ages ago, and we just never got round to going.I booked it for our Valentines date night. We had a platter to share, it was absolutely huge. It was very nice. I had a Candy crush cocktail and my Huband a cider. We were really impressed with this restaurant. And it was clearly very popular. Very nice evening, and very enjoyable.

It can be quite expensive meal out, but the food is banging and the portions are huge so I’d say it’s worth it. The best I’ve had is the ‘Phat Chef Dog’. I asked if they could remove the pulled chicken and add extra mac and cheese - they were happy to and it was absolutely delicious. *The mac and cheese is the best I’ve ever had - definitely recommend getting it, even on its own!

We love this place. Everything about it is just superb. Tasty, cooked to perfection, the service, the drinks, the music - it's pretty much the whole package - and seriously recommended. The kids love it here too - which means it must be good although we had a kid free night out last night... highlights on our table - 16-hour pulled smoked brisket, Donald Rump, Greek Malaka and the infamous Smoke Pit House Platter. My previous visits here, I've devoured the Ol' Dirty Burger and the #CowPigChicken Burger (not in one go!) Chips, house pickles and sauces are all seriously good. If you're thinking of it, think no more, just do. Music highlights for me this time - Muse, Food Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Sublime on the playlist one after another - so much love for this place.
