Hickory's Smokehouse Chester

A buzzing, family-friendly barbecue spot by the river with smoked and grilled meats, shakes and beers.

Born from a road trip across America's Southern States, bringing home the authentic tastes of the Deep South. Hickory's is a small but perfectly formed group of authentic barbecue style restaurants who live and breathe the values of southern USA hospitality… born in Chester!

We learnt all things smokin’ from the best pitmasters across the region. From a menu bursting with smokehouse classics and barbecue favourites, to our team of passionate pitmasters, brilliant bartenders and sensational servers - we’re all about rolling out that warm Southern hospitality!

Let's Brunch

Start the day the Hickory’s way! Whether you’re craving for fluffy Homemade Pan Cakes, our classic Chicken Fried Waffle or dare to conquer the Ultimate XXL Muffin or Pitmaster Stack – we’ve got you covered! Why not wash it all down with a bottomless ‘Cup Of Joe’ or check out our Bloody Mary, Iced Teas or Iced Coffee’s too!

Available every day ‘til 2pm

A Taste Of The South

For the ultimate authentic feast, tuck into our Smokehouse selection cooked low ‘n’ slow to perfection. From the 16 hour smoked Texas Style Brisket to the Memphis Style Baby Back Ribs. If you’re looking for a bit of variety then our new BBQ trays are a must. Or for when you can’t decide and just want to try it all, go for the The Smokehouse Platter, a.k.a the ultimate choice for any BBQ lover!

For the ‘non-smokers’ check out one of our mouthwatering Mac ‘n’ Cheese dishes, warmin’ Gumbos or Cedar Plank Roasted Salmon. Or if a burger is more your style then the Go Big Or Go Home is the one for you!

Our appetisers and desserts aren’t one to skip out on, so make sure you leave room! From Popcorn Brisket Bites & Smoked Wings to a Cookie Creation & Campfire S’mores, the perfect feast awaits.

From the Bar

Whether you're planning on stopping by for after-work beers, pre-dinner cocktails or just fancy a refreshing sip in the sun, consider our bar your laid-back local hangout. From Homemade Freakshakes, Sodas & Lemonades to our Frozen and Signature Cocktails & Southern Spritz range. Plus, an extensive spirits collection (including over 25 Bourbons!)  – whatever you’re sippin’, we’ve got you covered.

For the young ‘uns....

The kid’s menu has been specially created with a team of Mums, Dads and kids so it contains just the right balance of treats, healthy options and fun. The menu is packed with dishes and drinks for smaller appetites, from the classic mac ‘n’ cheese to burgers and popcorn chicken bites, to smaller versions of all the shakes. The cinema room and fro-co station are on hand to keep the little ones entertained too!
