Slow Smoke Bistro

An American-style low-and-slow BBQ bistro on the Redcliffe Parade strip, opposite the water. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor footpath tables, so it suits a relaxed meal after a walk along the foreshore.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating on the footpath out front, on lead and settled on the ground beside you. Water bowls are often available, but bring your own to be sure. The tables sit next to passing foot traffic, so it suits a dog that is comfortable with people walking by.

Good to know. The kitchen is built around smoked brisket, ribs and pulled meats, with brisket burgers and loaded fries among the regulars. Confirm current opening days before a special trip, as hours shift.

Getting there. Free street parking runs along Redcliffe Parade and adjacent streets, with a free public car park near the jetty within easy walking distance.

Nearby with the dogs. The paved waterfront path is directly opposite for a walk before or after, the Redcliffe Jetty is a short stroll along the strip, and Cafe Diversity nearby has a dedicated dog menu if you want a second stop.

When to go. Weekends and evenings are busiest. Good for a longer, casual feed with a calm dog.
