Townline BBQ, as the name suggests, sits on the town border between Sagaponack and Wainscott. However, what isn’t borderline is how delicious Townline’s ‘cue is. The dry-rubbed meats are smoked on site and can be served with delicious house-made sauce and southern-inspired sides such as cornbread, baked beans and collard greens. The rustic outpost’s reclaimed barn wood, popular trivia night and fun vibe has helped make it a beloved spot on the East End throughout the calendar year. It was also selected by Newsday for Top 100 Best Long Island Restaurants on Long Island serving bbq this fall.
