About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for groups
  • Innovative
Smokin Bones grew from a stall at Herbert Park Barbecue festival in 2014, we now serve you the very same authentic ribs, pulled pork and brisket as you had at The Big Grill.

At Smokin Bones we source the best possible local ingredients and don’t fuss with them too much.

Simply cooking with wood and time, “Low n’ Slow“.

    Great food cool vibe. Only issue was that our table was super sticky and we ended up cleaning ourselves with wipes that we had in our bag.

    Staff were just amazing, only thing that let it down was people coming up to us while we ate because it was outside and my food was a little cold, but over all great night and just lovely staff, 5 stars for the staff!
