Black Dog Smoke & Ale House

Food was AMAZING. Staff was attentive and friendly. Atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. I will be a regular here. Pit beans and burnt ends are must-haves!

Been coming here for the past 5 years or so. Some of the best BBQ I've ever eaten. The brisket platter is a favorite of mine but the daily specials are always really good too! The taco special I had there once were great from what I remember. All in all, can't go wrong with anything on the menu. It's all good! Only gripe is that it's fairly small so you might wanna come on an off hour to grab a seat or check out their Champaign location if you have a bigger group.

Was very busy.. sat at the bar girls were attentive and nice.. decent bbq a little salty but not inedible.. sides were average.. i would stop by again when in the area.. parking lot was small..

Hands down the best Q joint in the area. From the moment you exit your vehicle you smell the smoky goodness of what awaits you inside.

Enjoyed smoked polish sausage, pulled pork, twice baked potato casserole, and house corn bread. Smoked salmon, smoked bake beans, sweet potato fries. Sauces tailored to the dishes were fantastic!

The smoked polish sausage was paired with a mustard Q sauce, the salmon with a Georgia Peach BBQ sauce. Both were perfect matches.

Everything was exceptionally delicious, but the smoked salmon was the star of the show, being the perfect texture and taste.

Staff was attentive and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend visiting!

Outstanding BBQ. The burnt ends are delicious. For your choice of sides, the pit beans and cornbread are failsafe. You will not be disappointed. The cornbread is extremely tender and it contains a magical mix of the pit beans, cheese, and green chilies. The mustard based BBQ sauce is fantastic with the burnt ends. One can easily over eat here, so enjoy responsibility!
