About Smoke & Shine

Smoke & Shine is a cozy small-town bar and lounge known for serving outstanding food and cocktails. Visitors should be patient, as the staff may take a little time to serve unexpected crowds. The menu features generous portions of pulled pork, Double Cheese burgers, and BLTs, along with excellent appetizers such as onion rings and mozzarella sticks. Brisket and shrimp poboy are highly recommended dishes, with some customers calling the brisket one of the best they have ever had, even if they typically aren't fans. The atmosphere offers a mix of country BBQ vibes with an eclectic feel, creating a unique environment. The food consistently impresses, with favorites like pulled pork, sweet cornbread, mac n cheese, and baked beans all earning praise. The drinks, including the Pineapple Upside Down Cocktail, are amazing. The place is warm and comfortable, perfect for a casual outing, especially for its distinctive bologna sandwich. Visitors also appreciate the fast service and good old-fashioned bar food, which makes it easy to enjoy a quick meal before heading back to activities. Whether sitting inside or outside, Smoke & Shine offers a great atmosphere and reliable service that keeps guests coming back.

Racist bar and grill! Waited 10 minutes at my table never was greeted or asked if we wanted a drink. Two tables of people came in after us was served drink and order was taken. Never imagined in 2026 that minorities would still experience racism in a food establishment.

Good food, great drinks and friendly staff.

Small dry serving of meat, pit beans were just cheap pork and beans dumped out of a can. Sweet potato fries were burnt to a crisp, macaroni was dry, bland and days old. Was brought two appetizers when we only ordered one. Only decent thing was the Apple Pie Mimosas. A waste of $75
