Being from Texas and living in MA I sometimes crave BBQ and Shed’s hits the spot! Turkey, sweet potatoes, and mac and cheese are my go-to’s here. The brisket leaves a bit to be desired but is good enough for when a craving hits.
Visited in 2019 and it was brilliant, loved the paper towel on the wall a nice touch. Service was great and food was amazing. Pity I don't live in the US or I'd be a regular :(
It kept showing up as an "ad" when I'd search for lunch and I finally gave in today for lunch. Shed's is located near Downtown Crossing and so a barbecue place in downtown Boston is going to be interesting. I had a low expectation but it was nicely exceeded today.
Brisket was quite moist though covered in sauce. Decent flavor and consistency, maybe a little too sauced but still decent.
For sides, the mac & cheese was very good. Not too much cheese, plenty of flavor and the noodles were firm. Cole slaw was good. Tart with an appropriate amount of mayonnaise. Maybe some more celery seed would be nice but that's just how I make my own. Corn bread was excellent. Firm, moist, not sweet.
Restaurant is clean and well maintained. It's not obvious walking in that it's not table service but I figured it out promptly.
Better than any smokehouse I’ve had in Texas!Perfect in every way! As a Bostonian I’m “wicked” excited to have this place in my neighborhood!!!
Great clean location with ample seating. You can't go wrong with any of the bowl. My favorite is the mac and cheese with the brisket, hots, corn and the corn bread. The lines move quick do if your ever in a rush don't worry. And everyone it's so nice and patient edith your order. Also the desert are the best treat.
Tasty, solid barbecue joint. Mac and cheese is good, their power greens base is awesome when I want to feel a bit healthier. The brisket is my go-to meat. A bit expensive and indulgent for a workday lunch, but love it when I go.
Got a craving for good BBQ? This is the place! Located in downtown Boston, it's a bit hidden if you don't frequent the street it's at. Food is well prepared, seasoned & cooked. Meat was so tender, it came off the bone like butter. Great, friendly staff. I recommend this place.
Sliced brisket meat plate is to die for. Tender and juicy and very reasonable price. Best BBQ in Boston hands down and the staff is super nice.
I go to my fair share of bbq places and Sheds, you just can’t beat. Highly recommend
Solid BBQ, will definitely be back. Cornbread was awesome.
Had chopped brisket, smoked turkey platter. Both were so tender and flavorful. Beans and Mac n cheese were great side options. Corn bread I could eat as dessert it was so good. Will be stopping in every trip into Boston!
Found this place from a video Facebook go figure. what a great little BBQ spot right in the city. Not many around, was helped right away and got my food immediately and was hot and definitely fresh. I got the sliced brisket with Mac and cheese and it was delicious. Definitely recommend. Only down side is the hours. I left work early to try it and was not let down. 🤷♂️
I like the concept of a bowl for a barbecue joint. The Texas sauce is awesome! 😍 It may not become my favorite go to place for barbecue or a lunch, but it's definitely a good clean place for a quick barbecue fix. Try one of the soda as well with your bowl.
Shed's is good place to snag a quick bite to go back to the office or to sit down for lunch. The BBQ is really good, I would say to try the brisket. It is the perfect place to get a decent amount of BBQ in the Downtown area.
