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.

The atmosphere and service was really good. Our starters, the sea bass (cold dish and spicy but really tasty) and the satay prawns were both excellent but definitely not blown away by the main courses tbh. Not your typical Thai food restaurant first of all. Could be a good thing I guess but fish had bones in it, which isn't a major thing, but first time in a long time that's happened and my main course was some sort of mince meat and tasted nice but way way to salty.

Lovely place, only one waitress who was run off her feet! Left sitting for 20 mins before being asked to place an order, few drinks forgotten but food was outstanding - really enjoyed it particularly the burgers. Thanks!
