Great service fun trivia night on Wednesday nights. Food is pretty decent and drinks decently priced to match. read more

The subwoofer is SO LOUD that you can't hear the music or the people singing. You can barely hear the drums.

We drove from North Jersey to check this place out (it was a drive so we were expecting good barbeque food). We got there around 7pm. Because the place was a little empty, the kitchen was about to close. We got there in time, and the kitchen cooked our dishes before closing out. We ordered the fried calamari and barbeque/smokehouse sampler (which has pulled pork, brisket, ribs, cole slaw, and cooked apple jam). The calamari was okay; it was under-seasoned, a little chewy, and had too much breading. However, the sampler was really good. The meat was tender and covered in sauce. I wish the dish had cornbread on the side as well. Staff was laid back and chill. It was a long drive but it was worth it. read more

Located near the Pennbrook railroad station this is less a BBQ joint, despite the name, but a sports bar. Inside it has high ceilings and big windows and many, many screens and while it is comfortably modern it's done in dark wood that gives the feeling of an older, more charming place. Unfortunately this is the best part of the place. The menus for food and drink are both outdated including drinks -Sam Adams Winter Lager stood out, and certain sandwiches that are no longer offered. These are not fancy menus and could be redone in a few minutes on the office word processor. The fact they haven't points to older issues. Appetizers run in the $9-10 range with Sandwiches and burgers $12-$14 and things like ribs and brisket at $20+. The price for drinks is on the low side of marker price, which is a plus. I had the buffalo shrimp and the sauce was good and the texture was excellent, you really didn't taste the shrimp. Still it was pretty good. for a main course I had the black and blue burger that really had only a hint of any special flavor and my wife had a chicken wrap that she said the honey mustard tasted a little strange and the tortilla itself was stale. On asking for the bill it was a long time coming, which weas a surprise because the staff up to that point had been very attentive, then when I got it we waited and waited and waited and in the end I just left cash instead of using plastic and we walked out. Before we even got to the car my wife and I agreed we would have gotten a better meal at, wait for it, Applebee's. Looking back on it what I would say is it's a place to go for drinks and appetizers with friends and watch the game. but that's it. for a more solid meal, yeah, I know. applebees? read more

Stopped in last Wednesday for lunch with a couple of friends. We had to wait for over an 45 minute for our food. The Philly cheesesteak eggrolls were disgusting . The egg roll was greasy and more like ground beef read more

Have been here many times. New owner now. Food tasted good. But was dried out like they reheated it. Wife got Brisket, 2 small straps very tuff and dry . I got Smoked 1/2 Chicken. Very Dry. Great place to Drink or watch a Game. But will not EAT there Again. Looks like we need to find a new place for Brisket and Chicken. How SAD ! It Gets worse. My wife's Brisket must of been Old.!! She has been Sick for hours !!! Don't Go!!! read more

Smokehouse Tavern - The Smoke House - Smokehouse Near Me - Lansdale, Pennsylvania

We went to the Smokehouse Tavern on a Saturday night to listen to a local band. It's a nice, bright bar with sports matches on every TV. The band was great! Beer was cold, and they had a good selection of bourbon. I'm basing my opinion of the food on the pizza I ordered at the bar. That's all we ordered to eat. The pizza was surprisingly good for bar grub pizza - fresh crust, flavorful sauce, plenty of cheese and great toppings. We will definitely be back! read more

My wife and I held a wedding rehearsal dinner there on Saturday for approximately 50 guests. Food and service were awesome. Event coordinator was easy to work with and customized the menu for adults and kids. Even took care of some very specific food needs for a few guests. The private room and bar worked out great. All of our out of town guests complemented the food and service. If you are looking to hold a family function or an event, look no further. The owner and wait staff are top notch . Our family could not have been happier and the bride being from Georgia gave high marks to the pulled pork and Brisket. James B. read more

With the location and ambience we really thought the experience here was going to be great but we were so wrong... food took FOREVER to leave the kitchen (we arrived at 7pm didn't get our food until about 8:30) brought out apps and entire meals at the same time.. food unfortunately was NOT worth the wait, my husband's burger was under cooked and is cheese steak egg-rolls had no flavor or seasoning. He and I were also convinced his burger was pre-frozen as well as the fries that came with our meal. I ordered the crispy cod sandwich but was given the fish n chips, when I questioned my meal our waitress told me this was in fact the crispy cod. Not looking to argue I just took the meal and ate what I could (fried cod was very wet and soggy) but when we got the bill my meal alone was almost $20 ! The fish sandwich was listed as $13... so that was very annoying for us. The only saving grace was the live music ! Will not be returning to this location read more

Very disappointed today with menu changes.... Changed the burger roll , was a nice fresh Kaiser now a basic potato roll you can purchase at Giant. I think they burger is also smaller, was 10 oz fresh patty and now I guess 6 oz burger and not as good tasting. Buffalo chicken salad is different buffalo sauce and chicken is cooked differently. Wings were good but not as good as normal. Was my favorite place but looks like I may be searching for a new burger place! read more

A great neighborhood spot. The food is terrible - stick to the prepared foods like salads and fried items. The brisket I ordered tasted like grandma's overcooked pot roast with store-bought sauce poured over to mask the blandness. The meat was too tough too cut through with my fork and knife, so I left it on the plate. I'm giving this place 3 stars because of its awesome staff. Pat, my bartender, was attentive and friendly. He offered to switch out my entree but I wasn't craving anything else on the menu. Not his fault though, he did a fantastic job! I'd come to this place again for drinks and appetizers. read more

The staff was very nice. The service was good. Once I walked back to the hotel, I started feeling very jittery and started to sweat. An hour or so went by and everything that I ate came up. To the restaurant I say, please check your cross-contamination with raw and Cooked food prep. At this time I can honestly say I would not revisit this establishment. read more

For being named, "Smoke House Tavern", it is quite the misrepresentation of a BBQ joint. The brisket was comparable to a brick. We got the ribs also, but these were boneless ribs, not sure how that works. The "best" thing was the pulled pork, still not good, but tolerable. The mac & cheese was just noodles with oil and butter. I would not recommend this place to anyone, nor will anyone that had the food. We are quite disappointed. read more

Seemed pretty quiet for a Friday night. Was there with a friend and had a Reuben sandwich and some beers at the bar. The Rueben was not edible, but the bartender never bothered to ask until it was ready for the check an hour later. He took it off no problem. I asked another young man behind the bar for some napkins, and got the most uninterested response. Sad vibes here read more

Very nice place for a good meal! Wait staff are very friendly and fun atmosphere I highly recommend it read more

Really hot in the place. They don't turn on the AC and it's basically 90 degrees in there. Feel bad for the workers who literally are dripping in sweat. read more

1 star only because they have beer. Wouldn't feed this to my dog. Super fatty ribs and briscut not to mention they don't know how to cook a perogie. Could have used a chainsaw at the table. read more

This evening three of us enjoyed a quick bite and drinks at the bar. This particular Tuesday evening, it was quiet. With a hostess, a waitress, a busser and a bartender, we were quickly seated in this upscale and stylish environment. The guys ordered a beer and a rum and Coke, while I opted for a simple iced tea and one shot. When my drink came, I noticed a pineapple piece right where I sat. I hadn't noticed it earlier because of the color of the countertops. Obviously, they were not wiped down prior to me sitting there. Although the menus were torn and had seen better days, the options were plenty, ranging from ribs to wings, with pizza, sandwiches and salads as well. When walking in, we noticed the "special" on the chalkboard in the foyer. Our decision had been made as we ordered today's special of chicken penne with creamy pesto a side salad, and roll. The salad was fresh and the side of blue cheese was very good. When dinner arrived, we were pleasantly impressed with it's savory flavor and perfectly cooked penne with chopped grilled chicken pieces. The decor of the restaurant is beautifully arranged. The actual bar is a U-shaped with plenty of wooden barstools that are comfortable for sitting, and hooks for purses (and an umbrella for this evening). The dining areas are a generous mix of table and booth seats. With it's beautiful ambience and location in the outskirts of Lansdale, we are sure to visit again and perhaps bring more friends! read more

Good Lord this was *horrible* BBQ. The ribs were chewy and dry (and only 8 small ribs for a "rack") and the mac & cheese was a flavorless dry noodle mess. First time - and last! - trying this place. Waste of money. Go somewhere else. read more

I got bbq take-out from here and it stunk! Brisket was rock hard, days old it seemed. I literally couldn't eat the brisket. The ribs were about 40% fat. Pulled pork was the only thing that was okay - not great, but okay. Super weak, will not be ordering from there again! read more

I come in here often since I live nearby. Sundays during football season are always lots of fun! The menu is quite extensive and I don't think I've ever had something I didn't like. I especially enjoy the wings! Honey BBQ, Oriental, and Smokehouse wings are my top 3, but I've tried almost all of them without disappointment. The staff is always friendly! Some memorable servers include Kyle and Nikki. The bartenders, Nichole, Tim, and Joe, stand out as well. This place gives a neighborhood feel, which I don't really find elsewhere. Will be back! read more

Meh.. It's one of only a very few restaurants in Lansdown/North Wales of which these towns are occupied by mega companies and their parking lots. Came into town from MD for a business event and settled on this place after the first place we tied didn't take credit cards, and the 2nd place didn't have a liquor license. So we arrived to the Smokehouse which was busy and we were sat by the host. The waitress came about 10 mins later and we put in our drink order. 22 mins passed and we hadn't seen her...not even a water. I gave up and went to the bar to order our drinks and passed her on the way coming to our table finally. Not sure if she was new or what, but she seemed a little out of sorts. The beer and the Chardonnay were almost room temp and the glasses were sweating so the bartender did his job, but she dropped the ball. The food - Wings were gooey, but par for the course. Just don't expect anything out of this world. The salads were big and worth the price paid. TIP: if you're without kids sit at the bar for the best service (that goes for 99% of restaurants/bars) bar tenders know what their doing. Conclusion- Tread lightly going here. If it's super busy (which it probably will be because it's one of only a few legit restaurant/bars in this area) sit at the bar for the best service (may be a few sleeveless locals) get the wings well done. Don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed. read more

Under new owner AGAIN! This place should start thinking about shutting their doors with all the new owners coming in. The original owner was the best but the last 2 have been horrible. The food is not the same and over priced for what you get. The employee seem miserable. The only familiar bartender I see is the tall skinny one and he is not good. he makes you wait forever for a drink if he is not your regular. I miss the old bartenders they were always so friendly and would remember me. I travel alot for work and usually stay at the hotel across the street. This was my go to spot when I was there but i think it is time to change it. The new owner really took this place down hill read more

I was shocked by the attitude of the hostess at this Tavern. My husband and I called the Tavern Wednesday evening and made a reservation for three people for Friday evening at 7:30. The person who answered the call was pleasant and asked if we wanted a booth to which we responded yea sure! We have never been to the restaurant! Friday evening we arrived on time only to be told by the hostess that she had no reservation. By that name at 7:30 and there were no booths available. Did we want to sit in the dining room? (Which by the way is a separate room from the main tavern room. There is no Tavern "feel" to this room, just a room with a TV and completely unoccupied. Plus the kitchen entrance is in this room, so the wait staff are constantly in and out. ) We expressed our dismay to the hostess at the failure to record the reservation. And she to our amazement replied " Do you want the table or NOT!! " We agreed and were escorted to a large empty room and told our waitress would be fourth coming. 30 minutes later a waitress never appeared even though many passed us and gave us the "once over". No water, no nothing! We also began to notice empty tables in the Tavern. At 35 minutes a waitress appeared and asked what she could get us. I respond with " can we move into the hit top by the bar now that it's empty?" She says I think so, just let me ask the hostess. There might be a reservation for it. We said we did make a reservation but they didn't seem to record it. She leaves to go ask. After 5 more minutes we leave without so much as an apology as we walked out! As we left mover noticed three empty booths and tables. Unbelievable! Someone should teach the hostess about customer service. I understand things happen but she should have not been so snippy and instead simply said I'm sorry for the mix up and then tried to provide a pleasant experience! Sorry smokehouse Tavern it's a one star rating! Maybe you will train your staff better! read more

So I wrote the tip that says to give it some time before they "fill out the menu". Well, they didn't. I noticed the smokehouse tavern added pizza.....isn't it a smokehouse? Identity crisis at its best. To the owners: Smokehouse tavern has absolutely no personality. From the unkempt staff, to the banquet hall style decor...and on top of that, Wawa has better pulled pork. I have never eaten in a restaurant that seems as confused as Smokehouse Tavern. Service- Terrible. No personality, no uniformity, and please get rid of the white sneakers and jeans...it screams unprofessional. Food- Dry, bland, frozen. I've had 2 dishes from the "smokehouse menu" and they were both very dry. Decor- TVs don't add personality. This place is about as boring looking as they come. Boy oh boy. I may give it a third try in a couple months. But for now, I'm going to Jessie's, or the Smoke Rack for smokehouse food. read more

Despite being one of only a few bars in the county to have the interactive national trivia, and despite the fact that many regulars come there and tend to stay longer to play the trivia, and despite many many regulars pleading to keep the trivia...smokehouse opts to turn its back on many of the regulars and remove the trivia?!?! What a slap in the face. This happened a couple years ago at a little place called Prism Brewery and we all know how that turned out. read more

They call themselves a smokehouse Tavern and the ribs and brisket felt like they came out of a microwave! Waitress made us feel like we had to rush out so they can go home! Just an absolute terrible Time. Whatever you do don't get BBQ! Place shouldn't be called smokehouse if they can't smoke food! read more

Oof! The service was slow, even with no one there and the server disappearing into the kitchen at length. The food, a Smokehouse burger, their speciality, was a soggy mess with a formerly frozen patty and not good BBQ on a packaged bun. It was accompanied by a small portion of fries, making me wonder if they were saving money on the cost of potatoes. Drive 5 min and go anywhere else. read more

Do not get the bbq at all.. the worst food I've ever had. Mac n cheese was just Kraft from a box. Should've been a sign that everyone at the bar was just drinking and not eating. read more

Ordered potato skins for an appetizer and they were absolutely delicious. Got a full rack of ribs for an entree with Carolina sauce and it was sooooo good. Our waitress Angie made it an astonishing night! She was fantastic. I would highly recommend this place for a good meal. If you visit the smokehouse tavern, make sure you ask for Angie! read more

Aight. The place seemed slow may be because of the weekday. Why else would I write this review while sittin here? Lights were not that dim but dim enough that you can feel Relaxed. Jodie the Bartender is pretty hot. There is no price list in the menu, which could be confusing. Music they were playing was lame. I mean come on! I had a yuengling lager( a local beer) which tastes pretty ordinary. If this review seems unorganized it's because I m a little tipsy and if you don't like it go f*** yourself. read more

Menu price for 12 wings is $7.95 which is not bad at all. They have a "gameday special" which is 6 wings for $5, which I guess only makes sense if you want a half order, or want to try different flavors, but the price is still MORE than the standard 12, not really a special. I went in one night and ordered 12 wings off the menu, one flavor, and was charged for 2 "gameday specials" at $5 a pop, so $10 for the 12 wings instead of 7.95. I had them change the price, but everyone I asked about it seemed very confused. I asked them on social media about this gameday special and the pricing, and both times I asked the post was deleted. I was not nasty at all about it, was just wondering about the price and if it was correct because it seems that people ordering off the menu are being overcharged if they just want 12 wings. No reply, just DELETED my question. New ownership took over a few months ago, looks like a place that I went to fairly often for wings lost a customer. read more
