Update: this is definitely the best if the twickenham trio of bbq joints. Staff are quirky but very friendly. Dulce de leche icecream/shake is to die for. Wings excellent. Sweet potato fries great. St louis ribs good. Beans with pulled pork very nice. Avoid the mac and cheese options, and pickles. Update 2: chilli watery, lacking in depth. Corn bowl okay. Slaw good but spicy.

Well, it was not what I was expecting! I went with some colleagues for lunch and I wasn't thrilled…read morewith the prospect. The outside and inside decor look like a really terrible American low-quality food chain and I wasn't excited to try it. But! We had the loveliest waitress, very attentive, very happy to walk through the menu and spot on. The guys had banana milkshakes and I loved that they came with little bright green curly straws - cute to see these manly men with their petite straws. The food was really lovely too. One colleague got the hot dog - it was incredible looking, enormous and slathered with stuff. I did think it would be impossible to eat with your hands, but he proved me wrong. My chicken wrap was really tasty and nicely done, and the fries were delicious - possibly the best I've had in a while. When one friend couldn't finish his sausage platter with mac and cheese, the waitress cheerfully wrapped it up for him so he could carry it away. Nice! The music was terrific, a great mix of old blues. So why oh why is there a big screen telly playing current music videos over the bar, complete with naked writhing women and gangsters? Shut it off - you're ruining the vibe you actually got me to like. Is it cheesy? Yes. But it's supposed to be. And it's good. But shut off that damn tv.

The brisket was very delicious and juicy, but like all beef in the UK, very expensive and very small portions. Not very Texas, but I get it. The ribs were just as good and it felt like more value. The biggest difference was in the sides. Vinegar in London is not like in Texas. The potato salad was not what I expected, and the pickle packed a lot more punch. But the Fries were superb, as was the chili. We enjoyed the cornbread, but it was nothing extraordinary. All in all, this is a great place, awesome vibe, and I most likely will not revisit this place the next time I'm in London but I would recommend it to others.

The restaurant is in a little old building on one of the main streets near the Catherdral. It was empty when we arrived in the middle of the afternoon and we were greeted promptly by a smiling waiter. She gave us our pick of the tables and a selection of menus. We were starving so we chose one of the platters which came with ribs, pulled pork, Korean fried chicken, brisket, fries and slaw. We also ordered the Asian crackers. Every bite of it was lovely. Some of it was very heavily seasoned but with the house lager it was perfect. I was particularly fond of the ribs. The sticky soy sauce glaze worked perfectly with the rich rib meat. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone wanting to try something familiar done a little differently.

So I came across Mangetout on instagram a few months ago and was impressed with how the food…read morelooked. After reading the reviews and hearing about it some more, We decided to make a day trip if it from London to Southend-on-Sea and see if the food lived up to the hype. Oh boy, the pictures don't do the food justice. Firstly, this is one of the very few places where the food actually looks like the picture!! So my hubby ordered the rib tips for a starter, daughter had the shrimp starter and I had the brisket end starter. We were bowled over by how delicious the starters were. The shrimp was crispy and just plain gorgeous, we've never tasted better, honestly. Just he shrimp alone made the trip worth it. The rib tips and brisket ends were also amazing. So yummy. For our mains, were we glad we'd starved before coming! Hubby had the manwich, massive sandwiches, never seen bigger honestly and he said they were sooo good. Sandwiches came with chips and coleslaw and he demolished the lot to the shock of the waiter lol. My daughter had hickory smoked ribs and that came with corn on the cob, salad, coleslaw and chips. The meat off the rib just literally fell off the bone. It was so delicious and so full of flavour that even she managed to eat most of it. I had the Almighty burger...there are just no words to describe the awesomeness of this beast. It also came with chips and slaw and it was fantastic I ate it all. The portions here are HUGE and we didn't need to eat anything else all day... Apart from dessert coz honestly we'd come all the way, why not have dessert hey? The dessert was amazing, everything was amazing. We were so full at the end, thank God the restaurant is right by the sea and pier so we had a long walk site seeing to get the food down before going back home. We are certainly returning to taste all the other stuff on the menu! YUMMY!!!!!! Service was really good and the music and drinks were excellent

Ive been here twice. First time was good, but very slow service. Steak was good, not great value…read more Prawn entrée was above average. 2nd time again service was slow even though I pre-ordered. As it took so long I then asked for it to be takeaway...They then charged service...Not sure what for. Mama's ribs coating was too thick and to be honest not very nice. Perhaps they messed up the recipe? Meat itself was very good, but I struggled to remove as much of the coating as possible. Sweetcorn overcooked. Staff seemed ingenuine...Atmosphere is pretty good, but pretty poor value and food is hit and miss. The place across the road is the opposite. Humble, delicious and well priced.

Smokin' Aces - is literally ACE in terms of taste. Wow. I can't believe how good these guys are…read more They are located in Chapel Market and only do lunch time service although apparently might open a full time restaurant somewhere. The chicken is just sublime, and the sauce selection they recommend - is brilliant with it. I go for the salad box - which includes, chicken, salad and mac and cheese. And they give lots of it. All for £5 - I repeat 5£!!! You must go at half 12 otherwise the queue can be quite lengthy. Many go because the portion sizes are incredible but the quality of the food is up there. Sometimes I can't finish it and have to take it back for dinner. what more can I say - mind blown.

I used to quite frequently say that the BBQ Shack at World's End (London Road, Brighton) was one of…read moremy favourite places to eat. It used to be phenomenal, although sadly it has gone slightly downhill. I used to think that anywhere could rival their wondrous display of BBQ delights, but Smokeys definitely is now a lot better than World's End. The portions are extremely, extremely generous. I would heavily suggest that starters are not ordered - that's if you actually wish to finish the main! My husband and I were able to eat so little of ours that we had to get a doggie bag to bring it home with us. There was no way that we were going to let that go to waste. The only downfall of the restaurant is that the service was quite slow. That being said, it still would not put me off going. I certainly intend to go again.

Bottom-line: while maybe average to its American traditional bbq counterpart , Boudean's is…read moreprobably as good as it gets for London. Ordered the half baby back ribs, fries and slaw. Baby back ribs: not necessarily fall of the bone type of ribs, but if you give it a good tug , some of the meats will slide off its axis. I enjoyed it for what it's worth. Obviously, the smoker is limited in scope , so I'm not expecting Texas style quality. Was a little chewy in some places, but also tender in others. Had a preference for the chiptole bbq sauce rather than the hickory. Fries were mostly good (minus the tiny bits). So close to the meats, the fries absorbed some of the smokiness flavor. Slaw: low-point of the bbq. They used way, way, too much dressing. Like it was flooded. Also the cabbage wasn't cut finely, but presented as whole chunk slices. Would definitely not recommend this one. Overall minus the slaw, I enjoyed Bodean's
