Our second visit to Hickory’s in Adel and it didn’t disappoint. We’d booked for 19:30 on Friday evening to celebrate 2 birthdays. We were seated promptly in a spacious booth (5 of us) and although nobody came to take drinks orders for 20 mins, we could see they were extremely busy. Staff were lovely and friendly - cocktails and IPA beer selection excellent and all our drinks arrived within minutes of placing the order as well as their tasty popcorn. Ordered some burgers, a BBQ sharing platter (with extra onion rings) and my wife had the chicken cobb salad. Portions were generous and the brisket, pulled pork, sausage ribs, wings and sides were all outstanding. The triple Oklahoma burger was also exceptional. We didn’t have room for dessert this time although they looked great on the menu. There’s a great atmosphere in the place and a very welcoming vibe. It’s a huge building with many tables and yet the kitchen was able to get food out to a really good standard within 20 minutes of placing the order so all credit to the team. I was actually surprised at just how little the bill was as I was honestly expecting much more. For the 5 of us it came to around £170 which for the quality and quantity of the food, all served in a great environment by happy staff and easy parking outside was excellent value. We’re looking forward to our next visit.

Very lovely atmosphere, they have a cinema room, so kids can watch films. The food is amazing! Fist time tried a burger on cinnamon bun - this is an unique combination! Will come back again!

Went for a date night with my partner; staff were friendly, polite, and very accommodating to my allergies. Food was delicious, I had the smokehouse rump steak and my partner had the smokehouse platter for one, which they enjoyed; but be advised the coleslaw and pickled onions have jalapenos. We shared the Cajun onion rings which were delicious and crunchy, also served hanging so any excess oil drips off and prevented them from going soggy 👍 I had the chocolate fudge cake for dessert, which was absolutely delicious but very sweet so would recommend maybe either sharing or having something like a small milkshake/glass of milk to help cut the sweetness (unless you have an extreme sweet tooth 😅). Only downside was where we were sat was dimmly lit, so it did make it a bit hard to read the menu(s) properly (I had to use the torch on my phone 😅) and it is slightly on the expensive side for what we got; but all in all, very nice place, happy with the food and service, and would go again

We went just before Christmas for a family meal. The service was swift, from good members of staff. Popcorn was brought out with our drinks whilst we made our meal selections . The food was really tasty and good portions not a five star as not quite hot enough. The restaurant is clean and the interior is designed well with plenty of seating options. The toilets are clean, and fully equipped for everyone's needs, disabled and baby changing facilities. Loads of parking and there is an outdoor play area. There is a small cinema area for children whilst they wait for their meals. We will definitely return.

Hickories was recommended to us by a friend Olivia to have a meal for our 41st wedding anniversary, she had been there on a few occasions and had been really impressed by everything, especially the food . We had never been before but we were amazed at how helpful, kind and welcoming the staff were with us The food was amazing and well presented if anything portions were really generous, so we didn't leave hungry Hickories was once the lawnswood arms and it has been refurbished to a very good standard. We were really impressed We would absolutely recommend a visit to this newly refurbished restaurant with fantastic staff, food and atmosphere
