The Smoke Shop BBQ

We create a pleasant atmosphere for our customers to build memorable memories with their friends and family through our friendly and attentive hospitality, mixed with our award-winning BBQ. Our American BBQ is a one-of-a-kind style that pays tribute to Andy's 20+ years of BBQ competition experience, and it's complemented with an unrivaled whiskey program that boasts New England's largest American whiskey collection. Our goal is for each guest to feel at ease when visiting us and to look forward to their next visit to the Smoke Shop.
