Place has such great potential! Staff is nice, you order first and they bring it out. Everyone from cashier to cook are awesome and so nice. Lots of menu options and not extremely expensive at least. Interior is warm and smells of wood smoke. It's a great bbq place and one of my nearby favorites. My top recommendation is the baked beans side! They got that recipe down! Very tender and flavorful, I haven't had beans like this in ages. I like the Pulled Pork done "Bama style" which is just with some slaw on top. It's the same price as the regular and you get extra stuff! I've also had three other sides, cornbread (good but rather bland, not as sweet as I thought); Mac and cheese ( was a bit dry and sitting under a heat lamp too long) and banana pudding (very tasty). The actual pork is good, but not good enough where I didn't have to add sauce every bite. The sauce they provide is very good but a bit spicy. Would be nice for a couple different sauces. Overall a top tier casual eatery for Boulder, and love the atmosphere! read more

The service is incredible. The options are amazing and the Thanksgiving special is only available Thursday

Food is always great at this place! Not many places in Boulder where you can get fried catfish and hush puppies. :) We go there from time to time; you should definitely check it out. But the service we got the last time we went was so above and beyond! It was a little while before closing time, and the dude who was working there came over to our table to ask if either of us was drinking tea and if we'd mind if he dumped the iced tea and started cleaning the urn. Turns out I actually WAS drinking tea and would've been really bummed if he dumped it out. So incredibly thoughtful! (Especially in a world where most restaurants have already dumped the drinks, stopped making food, mopped the floors, and put the chairs up on the tables an hour and a half before closing time, haha!) The other thoughtful thing he did was coming over to us again later to offer us some sweet potato casserole to take home. They had some left over, and they weren't allowed to keep it for the next day. So he gave us each a little to-go container of it. What a nice guy! read more

I ordered delivery two times in the past 5 months. Both times my full order was not fulfilled. The online ordering system allowed me to order ribs, but apparently the location was out of ribs and did not contact me for a replacement item. When I called the location, I was told my order was credited for the missing items but there was no apology or offer to order something different. I was told I should not have been able to order the items and the online system was to blame. Very disappointing! read more

Had an excellent lunch here today! It's under new ownership and Alex clearly takes pride in running his business. I had the fried catfish platter with hush puppies (instead of cornbread) and double collard greens. Everything was prepared perfectly and tasted great! The hush puppies had a crispy brown exterior and a moist and savory inside, the collard greens were not overcooked like they can often be, and the catfish was lightly battered and quick fried so it was light and tender. I'll definitely be back and wouldn't hesitate to order the same thing again. read more

We love Moe's, their service is great their food is amazing. I just placed a huge order for my son's graduation party Alex the manager made it super easy.

Ridiculously over priced. $18 for 3 small pieces of brisket and it was dry. Won't be going back read more

Moe's Original Bar B Que - Dry brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Let me start off by saying I am not a bbq person. When presented with options, bbq is usually last on my list. But my boyfriend wanted to go here, so I said sure why not..."I'll just have a couple bites" (age old trick, am I right?) But let me just say...WOW. We were insanely impressed with the flavors at Moe's. We were SO impressed that we came back the next day for lunch! I would honestly love to come back again and try other things too. Their menu is simple, but the way they execute standard bbq fare is absolutely delicious. The Mac-n-cheese was SO good. Not greasy at all, delightful texture, and perfectly cheesy. Our favorite was the smoked turkey (we got it both times!) "Best bbq I've had in a long while" - my boyfriend 10/10 would recommend! read more

Its review was terrible. But I just wanted taste barbecue near my office. I tried and satisfied with the taste and atmosphere there. The new owner deserves to have new reputations 'cause he was very kind and friendly and the food was good enough for commendations. I had the smoked Angus brisket with Corn bread and marinated slaw. The food was definitely enjoyable. He let me taste some special drinks matured in their own mini barrels and it was awesome! He deserve 5 stars! read more

During a recent business trip to Boulder, I chanced upon Moe's BBQ. The staff was ultra-friendly and provided quicker than expected food to my table! I had a very tasty Pulled Pork sandwich and Sweet Tea that totally hit the spot. There was also great music playing throughout the restaurant and I appreciated the decor, using old ski-lift chairs as tables! Very cool! I very much enjoyed eating dinner there and will definitely come back the next time that I am in town! read more

I was a big fan (emphasis on the was) of Georgia boys barbecue, but for some reason Georgia Boys has been slacking. Their brisket isn't as juicy and tender,the ribs are not fall off the bone anymore. Overall the quality at Georgia boys has gone down. Luckily I ran into Moe's barbecue in Boulder. I hesitated at first because it was kind of slow that day. Normally if you go to a barbecue restaurant and it's slow, you're probably gonna find dried meat that has been sitting for a while, but to my surprise this was the best barbecue I've had in a very very long time.the brisket melted in my mouth the ribs were very moist, with fall off the bone meat. the beans the potato salad, everything was homemade and they had specialty beer. What an awesome place! you have to try Moe's barbecue. read more

apiece for wings. 1 wing = $2. Spent $126 and NOT ONE BBQ SAUCE included in the bag. Ribs for 2? No sauce. A lb of hot links for $20; no sauces whatsoever. A dozen wings is $23? Wings pictured on the menu were wing/drum attached but we received literally 12 wings (6 drums and 6 wings) for $23? Called the store. Was immediately placed on a 13 minute hold. When he (finally) comes back on, the dude reviews my order and tells me that he personally placed sauce in our order, which is a straight up lie. Then he tells me to come on down to the store (20mi round-trip) to get some BBQ sauce and get it myself. Buyer beware! Try KTs BBQ, Georgia Boys or GQue for better food and service. Leave this pricey $$$ 3-time health-department violator off your list. read more

Moe's Original Bar B Que - Barbeque Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

My husband surprised me by taking me to Moe's in Boulder, as he knows what a BBQ fiend I am. We walked in just under an hour before they closed on a Tuesday evening, with one person ahead of us. We were perusing the menu when the gal behind the counter gruffly summoned us to the counter. Having never been there before, I was studying the menu but didn't see where fries were an option, so I asked, and she just pointed to the menu and rolled her eyes. I chose the sliced brisket and fries, and hubs ordered the smoked chicken, and then we took a seat nearby. Food took quite a while to come out, considering we were the only people seated, so my husband got up to ask the gal for status of the order. She was visibly annoyed and chastised him for even asking. The brisket was a little dry, so I filled up a couple small cups of their barbecue sauce so moisten it up. Turned out I needed a bit more, as I like to dip my fries in it. When I went back to get some more, I was baffled that she had removed the container. It was now 40 minutes until they closed, and they were getting a rush of customers, so I didn't get this at all. Long story short- good customer service brings back repeat customers, and this establishment was sorely lacking that Tuesday evening. read more

Definitely not the best BBQ place I ever ate , I just got a pulled brisket sandwich but it has so much fat in it and very little meat . And to much sauce made the sandwich very soggy read more

Found this place looking for BBQ in Boulder. It's a franchise, but it's the best damn franchise I think I've ever eaten at. I went for BBQ and saw catfish on the menu so I got a combo plate with the catfish and pulled pork. I've been back 5 times now in the last two weeks and I don't plan on stopping. The cornbread is divine and the fried okra is the best I've ever had. The catfish is amazing as well. I keep wanting to try other things but when I see catfish on the menu I can't help myself. A bonus is the atmosphere and the country music playlist. Only reason I don't give them 6 stars is because Yelp only has 5. read more

WAR EAGLE That's what I was told to say when I walked in since the manager is from Alabama. But so is my awesome sister-in-law but she says ROLL-TIDE-so...you decide. We came here for a quick drink and to gather with friends since our niece was graduating from college. Service was friendly and Bloody Mary's were refreshing (they serve them with a side of Okra-now that's Southern). I didn't get to try the food but maybe next time because it smelled delicious! read more

Amazing bbq spot, ole hickory smokers fresh everyday. I recommend everything on the menu but my favorite were the ribs, hot links and smoked wings. Also the mac and cheese is amazing and great deserts. They have family packs for parties of 4-6. Restaurant is nice and some cool artwork and posters with a great music vibe. read more

Specials daily (check their Facebook page) and frequent live music. The pulled pork and in-house Moe's sauce is to die for. The customer service is also top notch. Nothing like ordering up some yummy southern food, especially when it's prepared and delivered by a cute southern gentleman :) read more

If I could give negative review I would!!!!!! Stay away!!!!!! Dude at the counter was high asl food was just plain trash portions are for children no matter what you order left out food I paid for and they said there nothing they can do!!!!!! Complete trash !!!!!!! read more

Food: 3/10 cornbread was dry, potato salad plain, baked beans were alright. Small portions

Well, after over a year +. The family went back for take out. The food was average for me on the brisket platter. The kids running the show messed up the sides with the main platter. Really! after a year + I order again and it not right. Wow!!! Shelley, Really! Don't know what to say after this. I sure do miss the old crew that started it. Remember the pickles I brought in? read more

After trying to order a door dash dinner, they called us to tell us they didn't have brisket. Okay no big deal. So we requested that they just cancel the order as we spoke with them over the phone. This was almost a $100 order. They said we have to do this through the application. No problem. But instead, they confirmed the order making us unable to cancel. I called the restaurant back And spoke to an extremely rude, she SAID she was the manager, Aleesha. She apparently not only doesn't know how to manage a restaurant during a high volume time, she said she didn't know what she was doing in order to cancel the order to refund the money. She asked ME what to do. I'm sorry I don't work there and I'm not a manager at your company? As a manager how do you not know this? And she refused to do a thing to figure it out or help me. Obviously becoming upset because her tone indicated that I should know how to do her job, I asked to speak to someone else and I said i need you to figure it out and refund my money. When I asked why they confirmed the order after we told them cancel because they didn't prepare enough food for a dinner rush at 625pm she said that she didn't care and that she disregarded the proper protocol and auto confirmed this "because she had a line out the door." How is that an excuse? You're a MANAGER. She hung up on me. Hope her franchise owners know they have a disrespectful idiot running their restaurant. She should onviouslt be fired or demoted cause that's no way to speak to anyone. read more

We do carry out from this place every now and then. If it is just me I go for the turkey sandwich with beans and coleslaw as my side. Sandwich comes with slaw which is awesome. They have the best beans. When we do it for the family we do the beef brisket for sandwiches with beans and slaw. Quick easy dinner that doesn't break the bank. read more

The brisket and wings are awesome. I really like the brisket sandwich "'bama style" (not an actual Alabama thing), which involves adding Moe's barbeque sauce and slaw. But really where it's at are the wings. They are cooked crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Also I really like the fries, but my wife doesn't, so YMMV. I'm not too crazy about the rest of the sides, though. The potato salad is maybe better than the others, but the rest are just meh. Also the ambiance sometimes suffers from the music being too loud. Still, I go five or six times a year because it is pretty good barbeque. So there. read more

Had the shrimp po'boy with beans and cornbread. Server was nice, but food took awhile (I was the only one there) because the server and cook were chatty. Cornbread was meh, po'boy was just ok. read more

We enjoyed a delicious dinner! The Brisket was juicy and had great flavor, and the smoked turkey sandwich was great! We also loved the sweet potato casserole and the fried okra. Fun atmosphere as well. read more

Briskets and pulled pork and corn bread were dry. I had expected service to be nonexistent but the girl who took our order went out of her way to provide horrible service even though service was expected to be zero at this establishment. It was our first time here as we are visitor from out of town. She rushed us to order even though we told her that we needed a few minutes to look at the menu at the top above the kitchen. During the ordering process she gave that condescending tone like we should have known what to expect here. Then we missed them calling our name when the order was ready. She brought the food over and literal tossed it on our table as if she did us a favor by bringing it to us. We apologized for not hearing them calling our names but she turned away and didn't acknowledge any of it and walked away with an attitude. Overall I guess I'm shock to find out that the lack of service can be better than bad service. The service was so bad I wished I had ordered my food with an automated machine and had a buzzer to let me know when the food is ready. read more

Moes is a great stop if you want some delicious BBQ right by CU. my girlfriend and I go here usually on Wednesdays and get the Pulled Pork sandwich deal for 8 bucks. Only reason why it's not getting 5 stars is that the sides it comes with are pretty mediocre usually, besides the banana pudding. Updated Review 8/24/16 Although I still enjoy the food and the atmosphere at Moes I've decided to change my star rating to 2 stars. Mainly because on the website it clearly states "Starving Student Deal EVERYDAY" I tried getting the deal and was given a snide remark back from the girl at the counter stating, "no that's only on weekdays." I'll be avoiding this place until Moe's stops false advertising and I'm contacted about this problem. UPDATE SAME DAY: just found a pebble in my potato salad... I know that sometimes rocks get embedded in potatoes... But geesh, this is how you go from a 4 star review to a 1 star review in literally 20 minutes... read more

The Boulder Moe's is awesome. I first fell in love with it at the location in Vail years ago but no living in Boulder and now a vegetarian the Boulder location is awesome. They have tons of side dishes that are vegetarian friendly and they even have two sandwiches; smoked tofu! Which is awesome! And and a sloppy mo. The best part is the sauce, slather up! read more

Ribs are very good. Fall off the bone literally. I got a 6 bone that came with two sides. One side was banana pudding and the other was coleslaw. It cake with cornbread too. Cornbread was delicious. Banana pudding was excellent. Coleslaw was a little too spicy for me. Ribs were excellent. I was so impressed with everything I came back an hour later and ordered a pint of beans to take home which was great too. read more

Moe's Original Bar B Que - Good bar to sit at and eat - Barbeque Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

When you walk in you smell the smoke, that's a good thing. I had a 3 meat platter with hot links, brisket and smoked chicken wings. The smoked wings were a bit too salty for me but had good smoke flavor. The brisket was good but maybe a little dry due to overcooking. The hot links were tasteless and very average so I wouldn't suggest those. I like coleslaw a lot but this marinated( vinegar based ) coleslaw was terrible. The potato salad was average and in need of some flavor but okay. Overall it was average BBQ with the smoked chicken wings being my favorite, I could stop for a brew and some wings after work. The prices were Boulder appropriate so no complaining there. read more

They won me over today, with a little help from my friends! The food here was good last time, the experience was not. But coming in early today for a lunch rather than a busy time of evening gave me a chance to see them at their best. Tables today were still clean for the day and I was with friends who knew I had been concerned in the past and helped to make sure we did have a clean table. Today I tried the brisket sandwich with a side of slaw and an unsweetened iced tea. All good. Nice tender brisket on a decent roll, not too much sauce, with a side of my favorite slaw in Boulder, marinated, not "mayoed." The self serve iced tea comes both sweet and unsweet and are served from separate dispensers, separate from the soda machine. Always tastes fresher to me this way. Price was just right and I like the option of a sandwich with just one side. As it was, I really could not finish everything since I rarely eat this much for lunch. Good sized portions for a lot of their customers. I will come back again and see if the place is still clean some evening. It would be a treat if I could add this location into my quick casual dinner rotations. The food is worth it. And I could do takeout but often that option is not as appealing as eating in. read more

The brisket was 80% fat. Horrible. Completely inedible. OMG. And, the cornbread was burned. It looked like someone tried to fry it after slicing it. It was black on several sides. Also 100% inedible. So disappointed. (Cole slaw pretty good for what thats worth). read more

Horrible Boulder Location with horrible service, DGAF attitude and horrible follow-up to correct issues. I order a Pulled Pork Sandwich to go with beans and slaw as the side items. After an extremely long wait in an empty restaurant, I received my meal., Only my meal was for inside the restaurant and not to go as ordered. I asked them to make it to go like I ordered. I received my bag and went to a work meeting with my team. As I opened my lunch, I noticed i was missing silverware, napkins and BBQ sauce. Worst part is I was in a 2 hour meeting with nothing to eat my lunch with. After my meeting, I went to Moe's website to submit my issue. I received an email from Laura Ryan on October 8. Here is the form letter: My name is Laura Ryan, I manage the corporate contact portion of the Moe's Original website. I sincerely apologize for your experience at our Boulder location. I have forwarded your email on to the owners so they may address & correct the staff. I also requested the owners reach out to you directly. Thank you very much for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We appreciate your business and hope to have the opportunity to serve you in the future. Regards, Laura Ryan 970-390-9410 - cell laura@moesoriginalbbq.com On October 26th, I sent Laura Ryan an email explaining I never heard from the Boulder location. Today is November 11th and still no reply from Laura Ryan or the GM of the Boulder store. I have no intention of ever returning to this horrible chain restaurant. read more

This place is definitely a good, quick, reasonably priced place to get some barbeque. I went here a few times while I stayed on campus for a summer program. It was right next to the school so the location can't be beat. The decor is quirky, cute, and different. They even had this table that had a chair that looked like a ski-lift chair - very unique. I happen to stumble on in when they were playing live music, which was cute and nice - especially to be serenaded on my way home from a whole day of classes - ugh. Food is good. The chicken was tender and a good portion. Cornbread and mac and cheese was good. The only con I have to say is that it seems like it would take quite some time to get my order out but eh, I was being serenaded while waiting so.... who cares about the waiting? read more

This place is legitimately great BBQ and smoked meats. The staff is fun and they put out some fantastic food and a reasonable price - offering some excellent lunch and sandwich specials. I love they have a variety of bbq sauce's to chose from - or just eat it plain - it's all good. Just like any BBQ joint that does it right - get to Moe's early because you can't rush slow smoked meats and when it's gone... well you're just out of luck. read more

My boss had asked if you guys had any lids or straws for the cups, and one of your cooks said very proudly and rudely, "we don't have plastic lids or straws, you're in Boulder"......yet you guys have plastic forks that we throw away when we're done. He said it in a very disrespectful and rude tone. He was definitely an asshole about it. We most likely won't be going back again. read more
