• Barbecue • Dame Street

Our story so far... After much research throughout the States, Smokin Bones had its first outing in Herbert Park in 2014. Barbecue has grown to be a way of life for the Smokin Bones team and is much more than smoky meats and juicy flavours. Barbecue is about friends gathering together and sharing good food in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. That’s what we aim to achieve in our locations, from the head chef to your server on the floor. Thanks for your custom and we hope you enjoy your visit. Smokin Bones is 100% Irish owned and apart from visiting any of our locations you can now enjoy our great smoked flavours at home. Order online for home delivery or visit our online shop and order our unique ‘BBQ in a Box’. Barbecue at home could not be easier.

    Second time dining in Achara, and honestly you guys smash it out of the park every time. First time we arrived our table was delayed by only 5 minutes and you guys threw us a round of drinks on the house and were so kind and professional the whole way through. Last night, the food came out so quick one plate after another and every bite was just amazing. That ceviche and beef cheek are RIDICULOUS! Favourite restaurant in Dublin at the moment by a long shot, keep doing what you’re doing because I am a FAN !

    This is my 2nd time eating here and just like the first it was brilliant. One of the group was the late, but the staff were great about it. Brought us some beers while we waited, when he arrived they didn't rush us, gave him time to settle and then took our order. They gave us recommendations on sides/portions etc. I had the pulled pork, which was delicious, just the right amount of BBQ sauce, sides were perfect.
