This place has some awesome brisket! Actually, everything they create is awesome. We started with one of the best iced lattes we’ve ever tasted. Then we moved on to lunch. I won’t detail exactly what we ordered because I’m convinced it doesn’t really matter. Just order what best appeals to you, and you’ll be more than satisfied. The staff is super friendly and helpful. And there’s a nice covered outdoor area with plenty of seating and big fans to keep you from completely melting on even the hottest summer day. I’ll be coming back soon because there are plenty of other options on the menu I want to try.

A small coffee shop and BBQ joint. The coffee is excellent. I can’t speak to the barbecue since I did not have any, but the smell is very promising. You probably don’t want to go there if you are a vegetarian because of the limited options. Indoor seating is limited, but there are ample outdoor tables under a canopy with a large fan to create a breeze. Staff are very friendly and helpful, but the small work space probably contributed to backups during busy times.

We stopped for coffee and were surprised by the huge amount of food options on the other side of the restaurant. We ended up trying tacos and the hatch chili mac and cheese- both which were insanely good! The homemade tortillas were so great, and the tacos were portioned well with lots of filling! I especially loved all of the sauces and the lime. The mac and cheese was SO good as well with lots of hatch chilis in it. Overall, some of the best street tacos I have ever had- we will be back!

The Smoky Mug is amazing! It’s a coffee shop and Tex Mex BBQ joint rolled into one. We had the sliced brisket, a brisket sandwich, smoked sausage, pulled pork, mac and cheese and it came with pickled onions and pickles. We also had some drinks from the cafe area, a cold brew coffee and a dirty chai. Everything was absolutely delicious and that bbq was some of the best I’ve ever had, and that includes what I’ve had from multiple parts of Texas.

This place has everything you want and need. Very friendly down to earth staff. The coffee and breakfast are honestly the best around. Great bagels, awesome breakfast sandwich and breakfast burrito, they’ve got some awesome house drinky drinks if you’re feeling saucy. Sit inside or outside, whatever you prefer. I can’t wait to get back there for lunch/dinner and try the BBQ soon. Cannot recommend this place enough!

We traveled from Florida to Richmond through flight. Once we landed on Richmond we wanted to have breakfast and we searched near us. From the reviews and being a cafe we decided to have breakfast from The Smoky Mug.

My son I went out for lunch and split the barbecue platter. I think it went for around $60. It included brisket, barbecue, this amazing sausage with cheese in it, macaroni and cheese, slaw, coleslaw and amazing homemade super thick tortillas. We both have really good appetites and my after my shepherd dog was also there who got a good bit of the food, and we still left some there unfortunately. Of course my dog could have eaten it all had I gave it to him 🙂 The food was so good! The brisket melted in your mouth and the barbecue was so fantastic! I am normally on keto but I cheated and had the tortillas which were amazing and the macaroni and cheese which was maybe the best I ever had! They also had some type of peppers mixed in with them which made them incredible! I highly recommend it and think it is a great value!
