Full Service Catering for events - From event set-up to tear down. Keanes will serve your guests from cocktails through dessert and make your party a breeze - You can view or download a menu here. Padraic and his team did a wonderful job for our lakeside celebration. All our guests commented on the delicious food, and I appreciated that Keane's helped us develop a menu featuring both regular and vegetarian dishes.

Most successful family BBQ ever and all thanks to Keane's! Had their food for the first time at a catered event 6 months ago and couldn't wait to have his brisket, cornbread, pickles (frankly everything they make) for our next family gathering. Padraic was extremely diligent with helping us make the day a super success and taught me how to cut the brisket.

I was referred to Keane's when I needed to cater a small family luncheon and within 30 seconds of sending my inquiry online I received a phone call to talk through my options. The entire transaction was super easy- with booking, payment and pick up. I ended up deciding to go with their Express catering and it was perfect! The portions and quality were incredible. The brisket, mac and cheese, stuffed mushrooms and chicken were all favorites, as well as the individually wrapped cornbread. Just amazing! I recieved compliments from every family member. We will definitely be ordering from here again

Where do I even start. I found Keane’s in early 2020 when the world hadn’t turned upside down yet, to cater my wedding in Massachusetts. Long story short, 3 venues and 3 dates later, Keane’s hung in there with us and drove all the way up to VT to make our day extra special with their incredible food! Their staff is unbelievable, Kim their events manager was so accommodating and flexible, Padraic is so nice and the most amazing Chef. Everyone at the wedding kept saying how “this is the best brisket they’ve ever had” and I can confirm. Everything was absolutely delicious and I can’t

I recently threw my Father a 60th Birthday Regatta and dinner at Sail Newport. Keane's tending to my every need, was very professional, the food was great, and they far exceeded my expectations! Looking forward to working with them again in the future! Our cocktail hour was by far my favorite as the hors d'oeuvre were excellent! Keane's will go the extra mile for you, and their quickness in email response really put me at ease that my event was in great hands! All of our guests were raving for days after the party!

What an amazing caterer! Our wedding was coming up and I always dreamed of a beach wedding. We needed to have a Kosher dinner and I really wanted a barbecue. Padraig Keane and his team had never done a Kosher… wedding before but was eager to do one. He purveyor was able to supply all of the Kosher meats and fish. He followed all of the dietary laws to the letter. The food was out of this world. My guests had never tasted such delicious brisket and salmon. The set up and execution was flawless. We are still talking about the brisket. His staff were friendly and went out of their way to accommodate

Can’t say enough amazing things about Padraic and the team at Keane’s Wood Fired! When we first put in an inquiry for our wedding, Padraic set up a call to touch base about our event. His kind, friendly and energetic demeanor was a breath of fresh air. We booked without even tasting the food (a first for Keane’s according to Padraic!) We ended up going to Trillium Brewery one weekend to try some of the food and we’re blown away by how delicious everything was. We realized then that we had made a great decision. Kim (event manager) was so helpful and easy to work with throughout the planning

We had Keane's cater our 70 person wedding in Scituate, MA. To say they were amazing would be an understatement. From setting up the tables to the food, everything was amazing. Working with Kim throughout the whole process was wonderful. She was easy to work with and very accommodating to what we wanted. She even drove all the way from Cranston to visit the venue. All of our guests said it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. We even served the food family style, which Keane's did a great job with. All in all it was wonderful and we certainly will use them again for future events

AMAZING!!! I hired Keane's to cater the welcome BBQ the day before my wedding as well as the brunch the day after. I was planing out of state and they were beyond great to work with. Kim was our main communication and her husband delivered on the day of. Everyone was raving about the food and they brought everything we needed for the event. The brisket was out of this world and the charcuterie boards on Sunday were such a hit. Highly recommend 10/10 for sure!

Real deal bbq. Ordered three times for parties. Everyone was so happy with everything they ate, every time. Their chicken is some of the best I've ever had. Will continue to order from them. You won't be disappointed.

We loved their BBQ but were totally blown away by the Thanksgiving dinner we ordered this year. If you're looking to take a break from cooking, this is an incredible option! Sides were great but the smoked bird was unbelievable. But Keane's BBQ is great year 'round ...

Finally able to get here and WOW!! Amazing brisket really lives up to its reputation! and Keanes barbecue sauce is the best! No comparison to store bought! Macaroni and cheese is fabulous! But that salad and salad dressing was really over the top delicious!! Can’t wait to have it again!

Keane’s express catering is awesome. I ordered the sandwiches, beans and ribs. All of my guests raved about the variety.My vegetarian friends in particular enjoyed having the flavorful roasted veggies sandwiches. Also a huge favorite was the cornbread. Yummy!! Best cornbread I’ve ever had. And the best customer service. Kim emailed, called and kept in constant contact to make sure my event would be successful. I’ll definitely be working with Keane’s again

This is the best BBQ we've had in all New England- worth every penny. They only do take out but are really great about scheduling pick up times and packaging everything you need. The brisket will melt in your mouth and the Kielbasa is insanely good.

Padraic and everyone there are super friendly and always welcome feedback. The only minor wish we'd have is to offer more traditional plate dinner options with different proteins and sides. Regardless, we're still coming back regularly whenever we want fantastic BBQ.

Best brisket in RI! Our family has ordered takeout from Keane’s on many occasions and have never been disappointed! Padraic and his team do such an amazing job! Highly recommend any item from their menu. Easy on-line ordering and food always ready at your pre-selected pickup time!

I drove by this place the other day on my way home and had to do a double take. I had never seen/heard of it and LOVE BBQ. I looked them up online and had to wait for today to get their take-out and it didn't disappoint.

I got the brisket sandwich and greens which was great but the real showstopper was the Hanoi chicken sandwich which was amazing. Plus their cornbread was probably the best I've ever had.

Definitely going back

Found this place somehow on Instagram. They are a catering company that turned take out during COVID19. I had been craving some BBQ for months and this place hit the spot. My husband got the kielbasa with greens and pulled pork with potato salad, I got the smoked mushroom sandwich with slaw and we got corn bread and Mac and cheese to split. My mushroom sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. It had a spicy slaw on it that was killer and the bun must have been Broiche as it was a little sweet. The slaw on the side was overkill as the jalepeno slaw in the sandwich was perfection

My takeout was wrong, and once I got where I was going there wasn't enough time to go all the way back. I'll re-review when I go back and get the correct order.
