Cafe Telegraph Smoke Shack

Celiac safe with several gluten free options. I've came here twice, once for lunch & once for dinner, both meals were amazing! The food was delicious, service was extraordinary, the decor is fun, & the dog friendly, smoking section is awesome! The partially closed in area is heated and has dog bowls for use. Live music, several TVs with sports, & a private parking lot are all additional great perks.

This is our neighborhood place but it's worth a drive as a destination. They support local teams and they even name their menu items after area schools. The owners are very involved locally and we really appreciate them. I went for lunch with my Dad the other day, we sat at the bar, had pulled pork nachos and smoked wings with Carolina BBQ on the side. This place is a lot more than a pub, but I need to say the wings were wonderful, great smoky taste with a nice bit of the smoke coloring, a tasty rub, and they almost didn't need the sauce but it's so good anyway, made me wish I ordered fries just to enjoy the sauce more. The pulled pork on the nachos was a big portion, moist and flavorful with the smoke flavor in the pork complementing the cheese wonderfully. Marlo took good care of us at the bar and that's what every experience I've had has been like, attentive and friendly staff. Cafe Telegraph has a really good selection of gluten free items including a delicious pizza crust, variety of salads, but the smoked meats really stand out. The pork steak is big enough for three meals, the ribs are wonderful and juicy, and the brisket is delightfully done. Highly recommend.
