    I’ve been to a few UK BBQ restaurants with southern US style cuisine and Burnout BBQ is the closest to my favorite Charleston restaurant’Sticky Fingers’. I’m delighted to have enjoyed the dining experience and its fantastic value for money, as you get US sized portions. The only recurring issue, which seems prevalent in all of the UK BBQ restaurants, is that there is no cornbread or funnel cake on the menu. Maybe Burnout BBQ will consider adding it the future. Corndogs would also be a welcome addition!

    We were greeted warmly immediately upon our arrival and seated straight away. The choices on the menu looked incredible. We ordered really easily and were impressed by the ease of doing this plus the very reasonable price too. Our food and drinks arrived incredibly quickly and were beautifully presented. They were enormous portions and tasted really delicious. I couldn’t finish all of mine but the server was so lovely and understanding about it. The Philly cheese hotdog was incredibly tasty. We will definitely return. Booking is recommended as it does get busy.

    My boyfriend must have said 20 times this is insane. He loved it and so did i. Doggy bags are handy considering the food portion sizes!

    Top notch food, brilliant service, just a little slow at times as the poor lads was running the floor on her own. Can’t fault anything really though. Quality and presentation was amazing as was the whole experience. Will definitely be back to work through the rest of the menu!

    Celebrating my brother in laws birthday , has a bit of a wait for the food due to lots of take aways coming in but worth the wait . Need to look at your chips portion though as very large and we’re wasted which was a shame. Staff all very polite and knowledgeable about the food . Great night and will be back again as we want to try the weekend trays as they look superb.

    Our experience was brilliant, the atmosphere was great, for 9 of us we had enough room on the 3 tables put together for us. Such a wide variety of food to try, can’t wait to go back for more. Value for money was amazing we all left so full and happy!!! Which for a table of nine with ages from 60 - 2 years old it’s quite difficult! The waitresses were great, even offered to bring over a cake we brought in and lit the candles, played happy birthday music for 2 people on our table which was really appreciated. Overall we were all super impressed and can’t wait to go back!

    We went for a birthday meal. The meat and sauces were delicious! We ordered the share platter for two so that we could try a bit of everything. Really nice ICA on tap! Lovely space and well decorated. With the large share platter - we were disappointed to see the corn on the cob was on a quarter (2 very small pieces), but delicious. Please increase this to at least half a corn on the cob each. The mains are so delicious but the deserts are really disappointing. We got the special share desert which was supposed to be “gooey brownie” with waffles, Oreo pieces, and milk chocolate sauce. It had very dry tiny pieces of brown crumbled over a dry waffle with hardly any chocolate sauce. Definitely not worth £12! My other suggestion would be that they need to include some more veg options - other smoke houses do a better selection of vegetarian options with the same bbq sauces. And front of house staff need to stop people coming to the door and standing with the door open as it got very cold 🥶 we kept our coats on
