The staff has always been very friendly and the service is always spot on. The BBQ is really good. I have had the pulled pork, the ribs and the chicken wings and all were great. Good selection of sides including the Mac n cheese, broccoli, tater tots, corn bread and much more.

Great customer service. We split sandwiches/share dishes when trying new places. We got the Ham Bellamy and Window Burger with requesting cut both in half. We were very happy when for the first time ever the burger arrived on separate "plates"! It was nice our sandwiches having their own plates with accompanying sides.

Fun place, live music some nights, the beer garden have hammocks, corn hole and other games. They take your order and when it's done they yell your name with a bullhorn. I got the 2 meat- ribs had excellent tooth and great smoke. Pulled pork was fantastic, not too pulled just like I like it. Juan, Patrick and the gang will treat you right. This place is worth the trip.

Excellent food. Oysters were fresh and briny. Fried chicken was crispy and perfectly done. Brisket sandwich was delicious. Recommend Lieutenants Island BBQ sauce for dipping. Lydia could not have been kinder.

Who would have the guessed that you would find amazing bbq on the cape? This place is wonderful and the food was amazing. We got a to go order and found everything to be delicious and well portioned (shout out to the burnt ends in particular!). We also found this restaurant to be a great value and while waiting observed an awesome back patio with games and tables. It’s a very casual and laid back vibe for sure. If you want bbq on the cape, look no further!
