Thank Hicks it's Friday

Born from a road trip across America’s Southern States, we learnt the craft of barbecue from some of the region’s most respected pitmasters. Inspired by those experiences, Hickory’s Smokehouse brings together slow-cooked flavours, carefully prepared dishes & a welcoming team who pride themselves on genuine Southern hospitality.Summer at the SmokehouseLonger days, sunshine and BBQ... that's what summer's all about! Skip the shops, the prep (and even the washing up!) & let our pitmasters take care of the hard work. Whether you're catching up with friends over BBQ trays, tucking into stacked burgers with the family, or cooling down with a frozen cocktail, Southern-inspired spritz or homemade soda in the sun, we've got everything you need to make the most of the season. So, whether it's a family feast, after-work catch-up, weekend get-together or a summer holiday treat for the kids, join us for Summer at the Smokehouse.Let’s Brunch Brunch has got to be the most fun and certainly the most sociable meal of the day!There are few things more enjoyable than a long leisurely meal eating great food with your favourite people. The Americans seem to understand this more than most, & the South make it a real event.Our brunch menu has something for everyone, from Southern favourites to twists on classics, plus a couple of stacked showstoppers. Paired with a freshly brewed ‘Cup of Joe’, iced coffees or sweet teas, start your day the Hickory’s way!Available every day until 2pm.A Taste of the SouthAuthenticity is absolutely key for us and that starts with our smokers. Anything good is worth waiting for, right? Our ‘Ole Hickory’ Smokers from Missouri & our ‘Southern Pride’ smokers from Tennessee are set right into the heart of our restaurants.Our Smokehouse selection is cooked low ‘n’ slow, bringing out deep, authentic flavours inspired by the American South. It takes more than a smoker to make our meat fall-off the-bone tender though. It’s the skill & passion of our pitmasters who have all been trained in the art of barbecue. At Hickory’s we have a saying... “Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear aprons.” And our pitmasters are our heroes.Our Smokehouse menu celebrates exactly this. Think BBQ trays made for sharing, platters for when you want a bit of everything, and traditional authentic stapes you’d find at any Smokehouse in the states.Not in the mood for smoked? No problem. With a wider choice of dishes, there’s something for everyone to get stuck into with families & friends and for those “I can’t decide” kind of moments.And whatever you do… don’t skip over the appetisers & desserts. Trust us, they’re worth saving room for!From The BarWhether it’s after-work drinks, pre-dinner cocktails or just a laid-back sip, our neighbourhood bar is the place to be.From homemade sodas & hard shakes to frozen & signature cocktails, Southern-inspired spritz’ and a full spirit selection.
