www.bunsandbites.com states, “@greatnorthernbbqco is on my list for coziest restaurants. It feels like an old western movie meets the Montana Woods, meets a Texas Cantina…With the smell of a campfire! So, how saucy do you want to get? We recommend just diving in. Your wet wipes will be waiting, but for now…commit to sticky fingers from juicy ribs and brisket! Saucy wings. Zesty pickles. Stay a while with a spicy margarita. Some banana pudding. This is a whole lot of cozy, feel good food. Great to share by the platterful, with friends, or maybe just a little solo BBQ sandwich at the bar. See you there.” Themed after the 1990s Cult Classic TV Show, “Twin Peaks,” Great Northern BBQ has a “warm and cozy campfire vibe.” All of the BBQ meats and seitan are slow house smoked out back= the restaurant has an outdoor eating area facing and aside of their custom wood fired smoker, as well as the most adorable and classic diner car take out window! “You can smell that smoky flavor from a mile away!”
