Welcome to Southbank Original Barbecue, a family-owned bar and restaurant serving slow-smoked barbecue, comfort food, and cold drinks right on the Fox River. We’re Yorkville’s favorite spot for live music, great food, and good times. Enjoy pulled pork, wings, burgers, and our famous SOB Mac, all made from scratch with care.

From May through October, soak up the view at our riverside patio and outdoor bar. When the weather cools, head inside to our uniquely decorated indoor bar, grab a drink, and join the Southbank family. Don’t miss our annual SOB 5K and St. Patrick’s Celebration, kicking off spring every year!
