Tradesman's Barbecue

"Tradesman’s is a massive place that's both a BBQ spot and sports bar, but really feels like more of a restaurant. It can seat over 200 people between its two floors and has one of those enormous multi-screen TVs behind the main bar that makes you feel like you’re being brainwashed a la A Clockwork Orange. But especially during March Madness and playoff season, it’s one of the best places to multitask while sharing a plate of brisket, a bunch of imperial stouts, and smoked chicken with your 10 closest friends.

"This Midtown Village barbecue, beer, and whiskey joint doubles as a sports bar with a big wall of TVs behind the main bar and more TVs upstairs on the mezzanine. Tradesman’s also has oversized windows that open onto Chestnut and Juniper streets, with stools attached to the building’s exterior walls — you can see the TVs from the sidewalk seats." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff

"Tradesman’s is part BBQ restaurant and part sports bar - and it’s huge. It can seat over 200 people between its two floors and has one of those enormous multi-screen TVs behind the main bar that’s constantly playing so many different games you may feel like you’re being brainwashed in sort of a Clockwork Orange technique. But, especially during March Madness and playoff seasons, it’s a good place to multitask while sharing a plate of brisket and tri-tip with your 10 closest friends." - Sydney McElwee
