I've been to Hickory's a few times, each and every time, the experience is incredible. As you enter Hickory's, it has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The smell of the smokehouse is 🤤. Staff are friendly, approachable, and willing to have a laugh with you. Having recently tried the brunch menu - this is by far the best value for money meal I've had for a very long time. Beef and cheese sub with grape soda 👌. If you are going late afternoon or night time, definitely try the platter for 1. An exceptional variety of food - you will need a serious appetite to take this on. If 2 of you fancy a challenge, go for the platter for 2. Fancy a burger? Take on the goliath that is go big or go home. I highly recommend Hickory's either for a snack or a meal, don't be put off by the prices - it's worth every penny! I would suggest making sure you are hungry if you fancy taking on the platters. The beer is reasonably priced and i would always recommend booking if you are going late afternoon/night time.

Absolutely loved our first visit. Located just off the A50. (Bonnie Prince Island). Ample parking. 🅿️ The vibe and ambience in this place is just pure perfection! Definitely gives you an American Diner vibe. The service is second to none, the portions are fantastic and the experience is 💯 % worth it. Thank you so much. Our server was Jeanette. She was absolutely fantastic. Deserves a bonus and a rise! Professional, friendly, excellent service. We couldn’t fault her. Thank you for our experience, we shall definitely be coming back soon. 💫

Had a great time at Hickory's today. The brisket and the dipping sauce were excellent. Also had a root beer float which was presented nicely and I enjoyed it very much. I shared a side of pretzel garlic bread with cheesy dip and tatertots (would particularly recommend the pretzel rish) and a dessert with my wife and we each had a main course, we were both fit for bursting at the end of it. Staff were very pleasant and the atmosphere was nice. With it being a wednesday lunch, naturally it was fairly quiet. But the décor made it feel cosy. There was a kids playground onsite outside as well as a cinema room with about 10 seats, so would entertain the kids and compliment the free popcorn you receive. We shall definitely be going back at some point and maybe sample the brunch menu which looked delicious.

A great place to eat. Food is delicious and portions are generous. Four star only because service sometimes came a bit slower than ideal. But staff was friendly and kind, and we had a great time. Plus: there is a kids menu, plastic cutlery for kids. Also, they give kids flags, a booklet with fun activities and pencils.

Our first visit to Hickory’s Smokehouse didn’t disappoint! When we arrived, we were treated to a little brisket taster, which was a lovely touch. We shared the Platter for One and a Smoked Brisket Sub—both packed with flavour and cooked to perfection. For drinks, we had the Cherry Cream Soda and a Root Beer Float, which were spot on—definitely a 10/10 experience. Great food, great drinks, and a fantastic first impression. We’ll definitely be back!
