7 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Boxborough

“We stopped in for some food on our way to a nearby farm. The people working were delightful and we met the owner, super nice guy. The food was delicious! It was a surprisingly great stopping our day. Highly recommend. We got a calzone and hot sub. Both very good.“

“Came here to check out a good Dead cover band at Dante's at Firefly's and sample some southern grub. Was not disappointed.Advice: Try getting there on the earlier side, as the parking lot filled up pretty fast. Also, if you're going to see a band at Dante's, be aware people might be grooving out near your table.Anyway, on to said southern grub: Ordered the S.W.A.T. Blue salad, BBQ beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and collard greens. My guest had red beans and rice, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese. We both were left feeling satisfied and reaaalllly full.Added bonus: Was seated right next to the soundboard, and it was interesting observing the sound guy in action tweaking the levels.Service was as reasonable as you get for staff waiting on customers during a loud performance. We were even offered $1 leftover cookies at the end of our meal which was a nice little treat.This place is the real deal. Plenty of variety of beer too of course. Just make reservations if you want to experience a relatively smooth evening.“

“Stopped in for a quick lunch around an hour before they closed. Got the brisket and pulled chicken with cole slaw. brisket tasted GREAT, had the perfect amount of crust and was not dry at all, the chicken is their only meat they don’t season and it was AMAZING. don’t hate on this place until you try it, best part is it’s ran by 2 very polite young gentlemen. We will definitely be coming back here. this area has been needing a good bbq spot and hubba’s is the one!“

“This place was recommended by a friend, and even though it's about 20 minutes from where we live, it will definitely become a go-to spot. The service was excellent -- good recommendations, good timing -- the food was great, and the drinks were *chef's kiss*. We had a few sharables and the chimmichurri steak shared among four of us and it was plenty. Steak cooked really nicely. It's hard to decide which was the star.of the meal, the food or the drinks. Between us, we tried a few different and all were excellent and new. As I said, we'll be back. Maybe tomorrow.Kid-friendliness: There were lots of families with young kids. Chill place. All are welcome.“

“The restaurant underwent an incredible renovation that really took the atmosphere to another level! Now it's more familiar and pleasant, making the experience even more welcoming. The food is as delicious as ever, and it's great to be able to enjoy ambient music during lunch. Furthermore, the staff are always helpful and willing to serve, making each visit even more pleasant. Definitely a place to come back to again and again!“

“Need to make sure you have a dedicated staff member for delivery orders during lunch. I was waiting 20 minutes after texting for my order and was told it was busy inside. Then, staff member came to the passenger side of my car to deliver... when I am the only person in the vehicle. The food is good and usually service. This was below the usual bar.“
