Over priced, although the rib burger was excellent, it's criminal how an apparent "smoke house" gives out pots of bisto granual gravy...your a smoke house, use the beef stock from the beef you smoke! Also what's going on with "beef bacon" again, criminal for a smoke house! And I no pork is not halal, but neither are 4 cans of Stella, or a bottle of vodka so if its OK to sell beer, why not sell pork? I'm confused....

The Beef Ribs I ordered were just okay. It was more fat than meat, which meant that the taste of the meat was overwhelmed by the fat. That paired with the underseasoned meat made for what I'd describe as a mediocre meal. I'm not the biggest fan of pulled beef, so I probably wouldn't visit this establishment again, unless someone is able to convince me to try something else. Seating and atmosphere is good. It is pretty pricey, but admittedly it is filling.

Been here a handful of times. This was the worst has hit the nail in the coffin won't be coming back. I am a serious meat eater when it comes to eating food.Brisket was a little on chewy side. We ordered the rib burgers with the bone inside it. With loaded fries. I know the price for brisket is expensive but this feels like a rip off as the meat should be spot on for the price we are paying.(overall 4 peopls review about this). The cookies where dead. It was like they were uncooked very doughy nothing like the tic tok video. Was not really going to come here it was a tik tok video we watched made it look beautiful but was far from that. I ain't a hater but. For the money you are paying should be premium edition service/food/atmosphere. This place ain't for me. Do not recommend. 🤮

I was in Manchester today and decided to treat myself to some smokehouse. I ordered the small brisket and a small rib (off the bone), BBQ sauce and peppercorn sauce, and Jalapeño bites. The meat was very soft and tender, the rib had much more flavour and was much more tender than the brisket. If I came here again I would have the short ribs over the brisket, whilst it wasn’t dry, as such, it was as succulent as the rib. This is a premium food place, and it cost me £36, so I expected the cutlery to be top quality, sadly it was not very good and did not enhance the eating experience. I thought the cutlery was bit uncomfortable and took the shine off a little from a very satisfying lunch. I told the staff to pass this little criticism on to the management. Little things like this do enhance the experience. At these prices I would expect some sides to be included by default, but sides were extra.

Alhamdulilah the food was hitting standards where the wait time was around 40 minutes but understandable seen as thought everything is fresh. Decently priced for the quality of meat. Seating is available and average for where it’s location is based including the staff being ultimately pleasing with the service as swift and organised as can be. I would call before to confirm how long the wait time would be depending on the amount of people arriving. Overall good vibes and family atmosphere.

I came all the way from wales today just for the brisket. Ordered one large portion and one medium brisket slices, 2 burgers, one rib loaded with fries tex max and some extras. Chaos part :- In the beginning, we were served 5 burgers I asked that guy twice where is the brisket slices so he pointed out towards the burgers and he said the loaded rib is on the way I thought they might have wrapped my brisket slices into burgers somehow, well we started eating after some time the guy came just said “ it was mistake and took 4 unwrapped burgers and 4 fries from us and took it back and then came back with that one same burger with 2 dead cold briskets ( with two equal medium even tho I ordered one large ) He took 2 fries back but I was expecting 3 fries so I asked him after while he brought fries back but forgot the drinks. I was so pissed about everything and this point I can’t express honestly!! The loaded Rib fries were without Rib I mean mistakes happen but this was beyond mismanagment and training. And all the burgers were in one tray with no extra plates ( not sure if he forgot or they just don’t provide plates but eitherway it was unpleasant )

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pitmaster, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The standout of the evening was undoubtedly the impeccable service provided by Dhivn. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was flawless. His professionalism and warm demeanor truly elevated the experience, making us feel welcomed and valued. The food was absolutely amazing. The burgers were perfectly crafted—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was a delight. However, the real highlight for me was the ribs. They were incredible—soft, juicy, and so tender that the meat melted in my mouth. It’s rare to find ribs this good, and they exceeded all expectations. Another pleasant surprise was the Nanco cheese, which was rich, creamy, and perfectly paired with the meal. It added a unique and indulgent touch to the experience. On top of the great food, I also loved the fact that Pitmaster offers refillable drinks. It's a simple yet thoughtful feature that enhances the overall dining experience. The restaurant itself was spotless, which is always a major plus. The cleanliness, combined with the inviting ambiance, made it a comfortable and enjoyable place to dine. Overall, Pitmaster delivered on every level—delicious food, great service, and a clean, welcoming environment. A huge thanks to Dhivn for making the experience even better. I’ll definitely be returning soon and recommending this gem to all my friends and family!

If you’re a meat lover—especially a ribs fanatic like me—this place is basically heaven. The ribs and beef briskets? Smoked to perfection (I’m convinced they smoked them for 14 days straight), grilled so beautifully, and so tender they practically melt in your mouth. And don’t even get me started on the burgers—they’re dangerously good! In winter, when the cold hits and your stomach turns into a bottomless pit, this is the spot to save yourself. Swing by and conquer your hunger with some of the tastiest beef you’ll find on Oxford Street. Your taste buds will thank you!

Both the Loaded fries were ordered were the highlight for us! The shredded Rib pieces on top fries and Nacho cheese 😍 you can opt for different flavours which is a great concept! The Brisket also had so much flavour; just a joy to eat! We also really enjoyed the burgers! The melt burger had very soft and tender Brisket pieces and it went so well with the Peppercorn sauce; a very subtle peppery flavour. Again with this burger you can choose different flavours! Even the mac and cheese bites were so good! Probably the best we've had, so cheesy and creamy and good portion size!🤌🏽
