Had a fabulous little date night, food was nice, staff was super lovely, really attentive And friendly. Definitely will return in the future.
Quite a disappointment here for a meal we had over the weekend. I got the meat skewer and it was all quite dry and not much flavour. Very small portion size for the price too I thought. Fries came out cold for most of the table too. Nobody particularly impressed with it. Service was ok but place wasnt busy and staff were nice. Wouldn't come back im sure there are other places to get better food.
First time visiting a Hickory's and for the most part it was a great experience. The layout and vibe was spot on for the theme they're aiming for, and the staff in particular were very attentive and hard-working. The shrimp starter was a bit of an unusual mix and probably wouldn't have it again, but the huge burger and the beef rib were both fantastic. The biggest let down was the sodas, which tasted of very little and felt like paying just shy of £5 for a mug of icy water. Would happily come again, though, and just avoid the bits that didn't quite hit the mark the next time. Oh and the popcorn style complimentary nibble at the beginning - they're very moreish! Well done, guys.
First visit to a Hickory's today. We were a little concerned when directions took us to the middle of a housing estate, but that's exactly where we were meant to be. Friendly, helpful, and welcoming staff. The smell of this fabulous smokehouse was promising upon entry. It didn't disappoint. Ample on-site car parking, smoking area outside, garden, dog friendly bar area (water bowls and treats inside the entrance), cinema room for little people, good clean facilities, and you can see and hear the food being cooked. Once seated out waiter introduced themselves and brought popcorn and water for the table. Good menu options. We went with the 3am Mac n Cheese and Earl Grey tea and a half rack of ribs with fries and an alcoholic slushy for grown-ups. We skipped starters and were too full for afters! There is no need to tip. It's included in the bill. So do be mindful. Very enjoyable experience, and we would definitely go again.
Brilliant restaurant, love the decor and ambience. A well executed cajun style smokehouse. Food was absolutely amazing, extremely good value for money, large portion sizes. Really friendly and helpful staff.Will definitely go again and again. 100% recommend if you're a meat-lover!!
Really good BBQ food! Atmosphere is fabulous and somewhere I'm desperate to try in the evening! We sat outside in the huts (which are heated) but we've also sat inside on a previous visit. There's a hidden little cinema room with 2 rows of cinema seats hiding by the toilets! They show 3 different films daily. Perfect to keep the kids entertained while you wait for food. The service is quick and can't fault it. Meat is cooked very well and was perfect for my husband who's just come home from Georgia, after eating some unbelievable bbq food! Can't wait to come back!
Really enjoyed our first experience at a hickory's. Myself and my husband visited on a Thursday afternoon but there were quite a few customers in, despite this, table service was fast and our food arrived quickly. We were given popcorn as a snack while we chose our meals, warm, sweet and salted. I had the cherry cream soda to drink which tasted just like a cherry bakewell! We had corn dogs to start and a giant pretzel to share. I ordered a side of onion rings with my main which I really recommend, the batter is so tasty, I think it's the same they use on the corn dogs, and the onions super soft inside. All our servers were extremely friendly and I couldn't fault our first experience, will definitely be heading back, although I don't think I'll be ordering a starter next time as I'm dying to try the desserts!
