About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Great for brunch
  • Great for creative cocktails
Founded by Rob Shawger and fellow award-winning pitmasters Matt Abdoo and Shane McBride—two elite chefs who left NYC’s Michelin-starred restaurants to pursue meat smokin’ mastery—Pig Beach BBQ’s chef-driven barbecue marries tried-and-true technique with a dash of global eclecticism for a fantastically delicious, never pretentious, foray into the Smoked Meat Universe.


Since its 2015 debut in Brooklyn, Pig Beach BBQ’s smoke-centric signatures have been featured in The New York Times, NBC’s TODAY Show, Eater, Food Network, CBS Saturday Morning, and more, and earned a coveted spot on Southern Living’s “Great American Barbecue Bucket List.” Along the way, Pig Beach’s all star trio has continued to make waves on the competitive barbecue scene, amassing dozens of world championship titles, while expanding the Pig Beach BBQ restaurant collection to include locations in Queens, New York, West Palm Beach, Florida, and now Boston!

    Friendly service. Food was tasty but came out only lukewarm, which was disappointing.

    Delicious food, great service. Keep mind this is an indoor pickel ball court, one big open space.

    The barbecue is very good. We had the brisket, which was fork tender, and the ribs. which were also tasty. We also enjoyed the collard greens, potato salad, mac & cheese and purple Cole slaw. The combo platters also came with the softest, sweetest bread. It was all delicious. The staff was great and very accommodating. We arrived 15 minutes before the kitchen closed (Summer hours had not yet been updated on Yelp) but the hostess seated us and took our order right away. The restaurant is part of PKLBoston. The space is enormous with five reserved pickle ball courts, areas to play corn hole and shuffleboard as well as two separate bar areas. The place is big enough to have several areas for private functions. Just be mindful of where you park. We unwittingly parked on a "Private Way" and our car was towed.

    Gotta be one of the best BBQ place in Boston right now…amazing food, not too pricey and fun stuff to do there. Smoked chicken wings are “Out of bounds”. A definite must try.

    This was my first time here and it was such a cool experience. One of the managers made a few suggestions and checked on us periodically. The food was really good and the service was as well!

    Service was very attentive but with multiple servers it was a bit disjointed. Food was generally pretty good but ribs were a little dry. Would go again, though.

    Took a chance on a new place and we were not disappointed. Everyone was super friendly, food was delicious, the extra games and activities were fun, and everyone, young and old, had a great time.
