Pictured here is 1/4 pound of pulled pork , 1/4 pound of pork belly (those chewy nubs look SO good) and 1/4 rack of ribs (St. Louis style/ dry ribs ), with baked beans thrown in for good measure. Read more
Found this place looking for a spot to watch the World Cup . Food was fantastic! Service was outstanding. Our bartender Christine was friendly , and amazing. Good beers on tap . Definitely will go again
Two words… "meat candy ." If you don't know now, you should visit and do some research. Tiny spot, expanding next door. For now expect a wait that's well worth it.
Their Filipino sausage sandwich is a take on Longaniza served with garlic aioli & pickled shallots (Not sure if still on the menu). Get the Gimme the Beef Platter - 1/4 lb brisket & 1/4 burnt ends .
Delicious drinks & authentic BBQ I'm from Texas, and this is pretty great BBQ . The Austin salad with pulled chicken is so filling and delicious. Mac n cheese is to die for and don't forget the sauces!
We got Butcher’s Bar catered & it was so dang delicious. The Mac and cheese , ribs and cornbread were stellar. Wish I could’ve tried the brisket but it ran out fast, so I’m sure that was great too.
Great BBQ In Astoria . The burnt ends here is excellent, great flavor, and melts in your mouth good - you will eat it all. The drink cocktails are very good, friendly staff and nice decor.
The half baked mac and cheese ($10.99) is to die for! We also got a pulled pork and a pulled chicken sandwich both darn delicious! Will be back to this place for sure!
Butcher Bar makes me want to move to Astoria. Truth. It's expanding next door soon. The Meat Candy Burnt Ends , Brisket & Applewood Smoked Bacon are delicious. The Apple Pie is good. They serve Shiner .
The chili cheese nachos are excellent. If you order it, make sure you have several mouths to help. We ordered it with the pico , sour cream and jalapeños on the side to adjust for personal tastes.
Pulled pork , coleslaw , garlic broccoli , cornbread are good. Pork belly overcooked, brisket was flavorless. Mac & cheese OK if you add S&P. Baked beans acceptable but soupy, didn't see any bacon .
Dry-rub BBQ . Fall-off-bone ribs were tough & dry. Brisket , (the best) burnt ends , pickles , applewood bacon baked beans , 1/2 sweet & 1/2 unsweetened iced tea ! Outdoor deck seating.
Barbecue dishes, Sandwiches , rotisserie items, and chops, all made with top-notch, locally-sourced meat. Taste: Smoked Pulled Pork , 50/50 Sandwich , Rack St. Louis Style Dry Rubbed Ribs Read more
The atmosphere & general image of this place is great. Very clean and presentable. I had the Mopped and Chopped Brisket sandwich . Delicious, but then again, when is brisket not delicious. Will return
No longer BYOB but they do have an excellent drink selection. Get the burnt ends ! Be warned- they do run out.
I had the Bob's Burger (1/2 lb brisket/bacon blend, thesandwichenthusiast.com/butcherbar) here, & cannot recommend going back for it enough. Beautiful backyard & a new bar area worth checking out.
One of my favorite neighborhood places ! Brisket , chic and pulled pork are all on pt. A pretty good range of whiskey to choose from as well .
The Philly cheesesteak is AMAZING!!! The 3 cheese sauce takes this sandwich to a different level of awesome. Slaw is A+. BYOb , $2.79/pp. The burnt ends are good, but John Brown BBQ keeps 1st place.
A big thanks to Teddy and Matt for flawless catering . 40lbs of mac n cheese , 20lbs of slaw , 20lbs of yams , and 100 corn cakes with the amazing honey butter . On point and ultimately delicious. Thanks!
If you're a first-timer, get the sampler platter with your choice of three meats -- it'll be enough to share with room for dessert , or can be dinner for one if you're really hungry.
Finally! Quality BBQ in Astoria . Butcher Bar is a southern gal's dream and savory respite! Not to mention, amazingly friendly service . I can't say enough good things!
This is what (food) dreams are made of... Butcher Bar has the best BBQ in the NYC/NJ area
You'd be crazy not to get the smoked pork belly . It blows the burnt ends out of the water. While you're here be sure to try one of their organic sodas and stick around for the free apple pie . Awesome.
The mac n cheese is amazing here. Great place to go and pig out. Drinks are good and great atmosphere.
Combination butcher shop and barbecue joint. High points: dry-rubbed ribs , brisket cheesesteak , and burnt ends .
Pulled pork sandwich is great!! The bread was nice and toasty and not at all soggy. Sweet tea is not that great though. Mac and cheese is very heavy but good.
Porky's platter is delicious. The pork belly and ribs is excellent with a side of Mac and cheese . Plus complimentary desert !
Fall off the bone smoked pork ribs and beef burnt ends !
The burned ends you must have the burned ends when you come here. ABSOLUTELY divine.
The Butchers Platter is the way to go. You get to choose 3 meats from the carvery along with 2 sides. 1 platter is enough for 2 people.
Their cornbread & Mac & cheese are musts!!
You could taste that everything was made with fresh ingredients . They even gave us complimentary desserts - apple cake ! So yummy
Takeout is fast. It's all smoked ahead of time!
Natural food, fresh meat ! The Burnt Ends is a must!!! Read more
the Philly Briskett sandwich is AMAZINGLY good and the burnt ends are also good the meat is so tender
The Mac&Cheese and the corn bread live up to all of the hype! Very, very delicious!
Do 2 of the 1/4 meat choices so you get to try more of their delicious food
Don’t miss the promotion on week days, $9.99!
The burnt ends and pork belly are the standouts here, while the brisket is probably the weakest
Delicious brisket . Best BBQ in Astoria , top contender for best in the city .
Really great food and service. Order anything on the menu it will be great no matter what.
And the Ribeye steak and it was amazing.
The pork belly , burnt ends and Mac and cheese are excellent choices.
Best: Fall-off-the-bone ribs , butcher bowl, wings .
the brisket and bacon is as good as any I've ever had at Texas!
The burnt ends are referred to as "meat candy", and goddamn if it ain't the beautiful red-blooded truth.
Everything on the menu is delicious, fresh and prepared with care. The owner is friendly and gracious.
Get there early, the brisket is great, but if you come too late they'll be out of burnt ends ! Staff is really great too.
I say get the burnt ends , this place is amazing. Too bad it kills my diet, but worth the. Extra salad during the week.
Pulled pork or brisket . U choose. Best option outside of fette sau.
Very spacious and the wings are awesome. The California pulled pork is a must if you like pork of course. The Texas size drinks are big, and sweet with just enough liquor. - Christina Rapesto
Any choice is a good choice. Combos are always value so you can't go wrong! - Eric
Best bet is the platter (ribs, brisket, turkey, pulled pork). For sides, slaw was good and greens exceptional. Corn bread - Rory Parness
Has some of the best cocktails in Astoria, and their kale Cobb salad is delicious. Good whisky selection. - Morgan Polotan
Great movie theatre especially for date night as there's a lot of cool restaurants and bar surrounding the area. Great screens! - Tracy Solorzano
