A new restaurant has opened in Stevenage Old Town, offering barbecue Texan food.

Smoke BBQ Stevenage is a pop-up barbecue and smokehouse restaurant in the high street, complete with a beer garden and open kitchen.

'Pit boss' Charlie Hoar said: "Enjoy a festival vibe with a relaxed, modern twist.

"Savour the best smoked ribs, brisket and pulled pork that make our pop-up a standout destination."

Food, which includes smash burgers and barbecue platters, is served from noon until 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and from noon until 6pm on Sundays.

Customers are invited to bring their own alcohol this Friday (August 9).

The restaurant is open for walk-ins only - reservations are not available.
