“BBQ restaurant, bar & grill”

Black Dog Smoke and Ale House is the most talked-about restaurant in town. Locals and visitors come here to enjoy great barbeque and craft brews in a warm and casual setting. Come early to get a seat, and even earlier if you want to try the burnt ends. Smoked meats & BBQ, tasty sides, excellent craft beers and much more. Please note: Our posted hours are when our kitchen's open. Friday and Saturday our kitchen closes at 11pm but we'll be here serving drinks late. It's the barkeep's call.
