Hickory's Smokehouse Southport

As we entered Hickory's we were greeted enthusiastically by one of the brilliant staff members. Asked if we had visited before and was found a table on a super warm Summer evening when the place was quite full. The menu was explained and water brought to the table with a bag of popcorn how nice not having to ask for water! The menu is excellent something for everyone and the meal arrived very quickly. All smiles and concern that everything was Ok Any thing else needed etc etc. The food was excellent cant be faulted at all for its type and very reasonable prices. Everything here was super slick and effortless. The staff are brilliant and ensured we enjoyed our stay. Asked by one delightful member on the way out would we return and the answer was a definite yes. No question. The staff here are the best trained in the whole of Southport. I would highly recommend this restaurant as the food and drink is unbelievable 5 stars

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!

Fab food! we had a sharing platter it was divine. The place was busy but the service was good. We didn't wait long to be seated, had a quick drink in the bar area till our table was ready. Fantastic choice and amazing food. Def a must!

I had an lovely meal here on my birthday, I really enjoyed the brisket but the real star of the show was the onion rings. They were mega. We were lucky that the staff were able to fit us in because it is a very popular restaurant. I appreciated the effort because we hadn't booked beforehand. The wait staff were really good and my brother enjoyed his food also. The toilets were a bit messy, but on the whole I had a good time. Lots of options on the menu.

We had a good brunch at Hickory’s. The staff were friendly and answered our questions. We sat outside in one of the little huts which was fun. The poached eggs were slightly vinegary but the pork was fantastic. The hot dog was brilliant.
