Hickory's Smokehouse Southport

Immediately greeted and taken to our booked table which was in a charming hut, with a heater and plug sockets. These huts border on a charming outdoor area full of interesting details like American style Post boxes and whisky barrel tables. Even the menus are full of character, made to look like a newspaper, plenty of choice. Drinks order was taken and delivered promptly by which time we had decided. We shared some bacon bites (divine) to start and I had the platter, which had a good selection of smoked meats. All the meat was incredibly flavourful, tender and juicy. Especially the beef rib, omg I could eat just that for a week straight. I was pleasantly suprised at how good the fries were, fresh, crispy and seasoned beautifully. Like five guys but better. Service throughout was attentive but not overbearing. Anything we asked for was promptly delivered with friendly banter. My wife had a raspberry lemonade which was extremely refreshing, not overly sweet, served in a large Mason jar with mint and raspberries as a garnish. As it was just me still up for dessert (amateurs) I had mine to go (sweet texas pie, a pecan fudge tart with blueberry compote, clotted cream and crushed oreos) which was Heavenly. Due to some technical limitations with the card reader, our poor server had to run back and fore to do 2 separate transactions so we could split the bill, but he was more than willing and we happily included the tip for great service. 10/10 will absolutely be returning. Right I'm off for a food coma nap. 😴
