A South End Smokehouse That Turns Into an R&B Lounge
Pull apart smoked brisket and biscuits early, then stay for whiskey and R&B once the South End lights drop.
🍖 Smoke by Day, Soul by Night
Reunion BBQ smokes low and slow on Tremont Street in the South End, sending out trays of brisket, pulled pork, wings, and beef ribs on butcher paper with pickles and raw onion. Biscuits arrive soft in the middle with a crisp edge, and the sides run to mac and cheese and greens.
Later the room shifts. The whiskey list comes forward and the space eases into an R&B lounge, with the smoke smell still hanging over the bar. Reviewers rate it 4.5 across more than a thousand visits, though the kitchen keeps a leisurely pace even when it is quiet. It sits a short walk from the Back Bay stop, close to the theaters on Tremont.
