But as luck would have it Table no 14 was available in a corner of the busy restaurant. Jon was super attentive and we had our drinks order in shortly after arriving. He checked up on us regularly and our meal appeared soon after ordering. The platter for 2 was excellent value for money and I highly recommend this as a great after game venue. Please book, you may not have the luck of the Irish., Cheryl Cordier, 2 months ago > Father’s Day at Smokey T’s, rolled out full and weak at the knees. Platter stacked, mac and cheese, tacos gone with ridiculous ease. Meat that good should come with a warning, I’d happily eat the leftovers for breakfast in the morning. Best BBQ in Christchurch, no debate, great staff, great feed, five stars on the plate., Paul Wilson, a month ago > This review is for the Riverside shop. We were after a bite, not a full meal, saw the gravy and mash and partner got the Mac N cheese. I ordered the waffle fries to dunk in the mash and gravy. Food took about 10 mins, we took it upstairs to eat and the first bite was amazing, big chunks of meat in the gravy and the mash was creamy and perfect. Dunking the waffle fries (I’d never had these before) in was next level. My partner said the Mac n cheese was the best she’s ever tasted, creamy with a crusted top and bbq meat through. The portions were generous and it was what I thought was pretty chea, Taps72, 5 months ago ## Doors - [What stood on this ground](https://www.chch.live/before?lat=-43.533364&lon=172.64817) - [On the map](https://www.chch.live/map#-43.533364,172.64817,17) - [Documents that name it](https://www.chch.live/documents?q=Smokey%20T's) - [Christchurch Central City](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city), the suburb - [The OSM record](https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/101365387), fix it there ## Questions, answered briefly **What is Smokey T's?** A barbecue restaurant in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch. **Where is Smokey T's?** 314 Cashel Street, Christchurch Central City, on [Cashel Street](https://www.chch.live/street/christchurch-central-city/cashel-street).
