About The Smokin Birds

The Smokin Birds is a hidden gem located in a beautiful setting, serving high-quality food that exceeds expectations. Known for its amazing food and great service, this spot is a must-try for anyone visiting Muskoka. The menu features burgers made from high-quality house-smoked meat, resulting in flavorful, juicy, and tender patties. Their brisket sandwich, paired with perfect fries, is a fan favorite, and many recommend the Brisket chilli fries and Turkey with a side of street corn. The brisket Sammy is decently portioned with a soft bun, and the Mexican corn is delicious and well-sized. Although some items like the small beet salad may seem small for the price, overall, the food is considered worth it, especially with the authentic BBQ smoked on-site. The atmosphere is cheerful with colorful picnic tables, and the smokers on the property add a real BBQ feel. Staff members are friendly and courteous, creating a welcoming environment. Despite being a bit pricey, the quality and atmosphere make it a memorable dining experience. The bathrooms are very clean, and the entire place maintains a high standard of cleanliness and authenticity.

Absolutely the best smoked bbq we have ever tasted!!! Hubby and I came upon Smokin Birds by chance on a drive through Bala recently. He had the Brisket sandwich and I had the pulled Pork sandwich. The meat on both was so tender, just melts in your mouth. Served on a lovely brioche bun and had a delicious pineapple coleslaw on it as well. All of the flavours were so amazing. I wish we were closer by.

I’ve had this place in the past and was served well with good food. But made a visit today and after standing at the counter for about 5-10 minutes while staff was there to only be told that they’ll reopen in 50 minutes. Why I had to wait to be told that while the buisness looks fully open, maybe a road sign to state there not serving would be a great addition. Also the way I was informed was pretty ignorant. I’ll save my time and go to the next place next time I’m hungry

Brisket sandwich was juicy and perfectly balance.
