A cute little bbq spot in Westport. Have heard a little about it and decided to give it a try with a couple of my friends . The restaurant is small and cozy, not a crazy amount of TVs, love the ambiance of it between the table lamps and lights. The service, our waitress was super friendly offered suggestions to us and knowledgeable on the menu. Was kind of surprised the place wasn't packed. I feel like it's one of those spots that doesn't get a lot of hype but deserves it. The food. We didn't try the ribs or brisket which I know is a bbq place staple but I plan on coming back to try! The pulled pork was good on both the tacos and the quesadilla. Not dry and the bbq sauce was the sweeter kind which I preferred. Loved the fries, house cut fries well seasoned. I would put those up against any place locally. Drinks were great not too strong. The Mac and cheese was good! My buddy loved his burger nice and juicy cooked to perfection. The fries app with the pulled pork was good, wish it was a slightly bigger portion go 3 guys. Overall I think more people should give this place a try and I know I'll be back to try the brisket and ribs read more

Will not return, Brisket was cold, hard and dry, Mac and cheese was salty. Corn bread , Cole slaw and wings were good. Service was excellent and Ambiance was very nice, quaint little place. Ribs not served until after 4 pm even on Sunday. read more

Brisket was dry and cold. Pulled pork was not pulled and consisted solely of burnt ends. Baked beans from a can, mac & cheese from a bag. Good thing this place has a bar to keep afloat. read more

Nice selection of sandwiches and drinks. It was a Sunday, they were out of brisket and ribs, but the pulled pork was excellent. The handcut fries were a little overcooked. Excellent service. The ac was cool. Menu specials posted. Plenty of parking. In plaza that also has pizza and ice cream, if you need something else. read more

Bootleg BBQ Westport - Pulled pork sandwich on sourdough. - Barbeque Near Me - Westport, Massachusetts

Dry & flavorless ribs, burnt and unseasoned french fries, slow service. Too cold inside.

Service was great.. first time back since they opened and second time food was cold not the servers fault at all.. ribs and pulled pork were ok plus fries but all were cold. How can that be with a small and low attendance resturant. To make it worse we put in for tickets for a redsox game my daughter was called twice and when she called back said she had to talk to the owner they didn't know.. I called the next Wednesday and they said the same and took my # .. so that adds up to never going back.. read more

Some items were good, but the brisket was very dry. Mac and cheese tasted artificial. The rib sandwich was good

Great place. Food is good, Brunswick special soup was delicious. Games are on. Beer is cold. Highly recommend.

Outstanding BBQ! Highly recommend! The pulled pork sandwich was flavorful and the hand cut fries were perfect! Also, try the fried pickles!! One thing to note, for families, soft drinks are bottled and additional beverages can add up! Overall, great place and fantastic food! read more

Bootleg BBQ Westport - Pulled pork and fries - Barbeque Near Me - Westport, Massachusetts

Cozy, casual atmosphere with AMAZING food. It's our opinion that a BBQ spot is not just about the meat offerings but the whole plate. The babyback ribs were smoked to perfection and not overly smoked (you can still taste the meat). I have been eating BBQ for 30 years and this is the best I have ever had. They have the smoke and the spice just right. The meat falls off the bone without being over done. The fries were absolute perfection and to my great surprise they actually got the slaw PERFECT! Seems so simple but so many places mess it up. Bootleg does it right. The pulled pork is as good as the ribs with a sweet and tangy sauce that can'be beat. Begin your journey with the fried pickles and move on from there for treat after treat of great southern food in a setting that you would want to eat BBQ in. You will not be disappointed. read more

Small, cute place. Lots of locals and great BBQ! We're from the south so I know what I'm talking about ;) We'll be back!

Just had an incredible experience at Bootleg! It was our first time in and we will definitely be going back! Upon walking in, the most lovely young lady greeted us so warmly and made us feel so welcome! That was KC. who would be our waitress - she was phenomenal! So kind, so caring, so genuine, so professional! She is a true asset to BB! And the food - DELICIOUS! We both had dishes that included brisket. It was so good! The smoke on it was awesome! And so tender! A wonderful first visit and we will surely be returning in the near future! TY KC! read more

Tried the latter of 3 meats. Ribs were good, nice bite off the bone and good flavor. The brisket very good and moist with a nice smoke ring. The pulled pork was a little on the dry side but good flavor and nothing a little bbq sauce didn't fix. Beans were awesome, coleslaw was ok. Came with 2 slices of bread and a piece of cornbread. Nice bar and atmosphere. Will definitely go back to try mac n cheese and smash burger. read more

Food is delicious!! Service is on point, and you always feel welcomed as soon as you walk in! Ambiance great, also you'll never miss a game!! Great job! read more

The food was cold and dry. Expensive and very limited menu. 1 star. Very disappointed. Service slow. Ambiance ok. Nothing like real barbecue restaurant. Ala cart read more

We were really excited to have a BBQ place in the area so we gave them a try. The food was just good, the place was cute, but the portions were very small. Not something we would go back to. read more

Totally legit burger joint! OMG. Great variations on burgers with extensive sides. Cold beer at a great price. Sports on TV. Great service. Hit this place hard when you need an excellent local gourmet burger. read more

We have some down South BBQ experience, and this smokehouse is the REAL DEAL! The food was all "on point" We started with the fried pickles, then moved onto the Cubano sandwich (on the Specials menu), and the Brisket sandwich, both with fries. DELISH! I usually judge a smokehouse by the brisket. This place is top of the line. I agree with everything the previous reviewers said, like the comment about the bottled soda, (a mild negative) but I can look past things like that, for this quality of food. Wait staff is Very friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking. When summer comes, there WILL be lines out the door, and long waits for take out. read more

Wow! Best local BBQ in the area! I've had brisket at other local restaurants, but Bootleg wins the prize! So tender, less fatty than others. The pulled pork was also so tender! Their Mac and cheese was also amazing! And their fried Oreos! I have a very picky child and I bought pizza from another local restaurant as a backup and she didn't even touch it because that's how good Bootleg was. Our new go to favorite BBQ in the area! read more

Very disappointed. I traveled for 45 minutes on a Saturday afternoon to have ribs only to find out they don't serve ribs before ?pm (readers can figure it out for themselves, i'm not going to fix your problem). Would have been nice to know. Hey Bootbums, ever hear of a web site? You could have put that important piece of info on your website our maybe printed it on your menu so people can know when you serve your pride and joy! Rookie mistake, need to learn how to do business before you open the door. read more

One of the best BBQ places I have ever been too. Friendly staff and great atmosphere (music, atmosphere, ...). Can't wait to go back.

Delicious bbq! We were hesitant to come because we didn't know what the parking situation was- but they have a dedicated lot so it was no problem. The food is delicious Service was fast and friendly.The Bathroom was a hottt ( but better than freezing, right?) but all in a solid 4.5 stars! Only not giving 5 because I only tried the delish Brisket sandwich and a bite of my friends burger. Ill update as I work my way through their menu read more

I was headed into westport near the village area, and i noticed that a new BBQ place was in the village commons plaza and had to try it, I sat at the bar it was around lunch time so i got the smash burger and fries i barely took a breath in between bites, this place hit the spot for me ill put the word out to family and friends read more

This location has had a lot of turnover so seeing an empty parking lot on a Saturday evening is not a deterrent for me. Also Kevin James was nice enough to get local to endorse this place. He eats a lot so he must know stuff! The place had 3 tables active, 2 incompetent servers but forget that, the food was AWFUL. The dry rub was bland, ribs rare & cold. The corn bread tasted like easy bake oven from 1950. The coleslaw was edible. Period. My thirteen yr old son did not eat one french fry. I had to document it! Now tell me, what do YOU think is wrong with this junk yard called a restaurant? I don't have the time or interest to go into further detail to tell you about the remainder of this unfortunate sodium saturated subhuman inexcusable overpriced sadist experience. I have to join The Proclaimers to walk 500 miles just to get this crap out of my blood stream read more

GREAT food and GREAT service! The girls working there are amazing too! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Easily the best barbecue restaurant in the area. Great food. Friendly service. Will definitely be back!

Delicious food--love the Mac and cheese! Neat atmosphere with cozy bar. Only thing I didn't like is they use paper dishes...

I went for lunch on Friday. we ordered a sampling from the menu. Wings, brisket sandwich, mac&cheese, and coleslaw. I wanted to try the ribs, but they were crossed off the menu. The wings are just store bought basic (Wing dings from Sysco). The sandwich was cubes of brisket on a terribly cheap bun... no sauce. Hardly edible. There was no sauce or smoke ring in the brisket, and the coleslaw was terribly tasteless. There was a man, I assume was the owner speaking with some guests, but he just kept staring at us and said nothing. After we were halfway through the meal, this person walked by us and asked how the meal was. I said "okay" then he asked if we wanted to have our chakra read? Super weird. read more

Absolutely phenomenal. Went 2 Sundays in a row, first time take out, second time dined in. Service is very friendly and sets the tone for a delivery of decadent BBQ, great apps and sides. You can't go wrong with a pulled pork sandwich served with a mound of fries. Other stars are the rich mac and cheese, the tempura broccoli appetizer and the jumbo tater tots. I hope they add a website so it's easier to drool over the menu in advance. read more

Somebody here really knows how to smoke good barbecue. Three large TVs on the walls for viewing sports provide more of a bar hangout feel than previous restaurants in this space (Small Town Grill, and Marguerite's before that). The meat of the menu is smoked brisket, pulled pork, smash burgers and wings. Vegetables are fried (potatoes, pickles, tempura, etc.). My brisket was smoked perfectly tender, full of flavor and was not fatty. The BBQ sauce offered in a squeeze bottle was sweet and tangy, authentically Memphis style. The fries were sprinkled with pretzel salt, which made them out-of-the-ordinary. Meat comes in sandwiches or served on top of mac and cheese. A couple of nits for improvement: I ordered a root beer and was handed a plastic bottle out of a case. That's fine for a food truck, but a customer who pays for table service and tips a server fairly should be offered a glass with ice. The food is presented on aluminum trays. A sheet of waxed paper liner that was on the tray under my brisket was cut to pieces by my knife and fork, and bits of it ended up in my food and mouth. Save the waxed paper for sandwiches only. And don't forget to ask for a glass with ice for your soda. read more

First let's start off with the service at Bootleg BBQ, it was spot on. We did the three meat platter and the rib were cooked very well. The brisket was very good. As for the pull pork very moist and great flavor. Everyone said to try the French fried and they were yummy. I will definitely go back the next time I'm in Westport. read more

great pulled pork and brisket very small place bun was terrible did not eat it. ff and service great.

I have just eaten the best pulled pork sandwich I have ever eaten! Excellent fries and broccoli tempura
