Firstly, the staff were absolutely amazing even on a busy valentine’s evening. Super professional, attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much to ask.
Can’t rate them highly enough.
The food was insane, big portions, everything was flavourful, the sides something refreshingly different too.
We had big bbq platters for 2 and there was so much and everything was just incredible.
The milkshakes were the best we have ever had and the deserts were just as fantastic.
I’d give this place 20/10 from the visit we had.
Thank you to the team for the best meal out we have ever had as a family.

I recently visited Hickory’s Smokehouse and honestly loved every minute of it. From the moment you walk in, the place has a buzzing, relaxed energy that makes you feel instantly welcome. One of the highlights for me was sitting at the counter, watching the staff work the grills in front of you. There’s something seriously satisfying about seeing the food being cooked with so much care and confidence before it lands on your plate.
I went for one of the platters, and it was exactly what you’d hope for from a proper smokehouse: generous portions, bold flavours, and meat that was tender, smoky, and clearly slow-cooked to perfection. Everything on the platter felt well thought out, from the juicy meats to the sides that actually held their own rather than feeling like an afterthought. It’s indulgent, comfort food done right.
The staff deserve a special mention. Even with the restaurant being busy, they were friendly, efficient, and clearly enjoying what they were doing. Sitting at the counter also gave a great behind-the-scenes feel, adding to the whole experience rather than just being a place to eat.
Overall, Hickory’s in Gloucester delivers exactly what it promises: great food, a fun atmosphere, and an experience that feels a bit special without being pretentious. I’ll definitely be back, and next time I’ll be arriving hungry.
My favourite starter from the night was the fried pickle and garlic pretzel. As for the main, I love the sausages the most. Not a big fan of the gumbo, maybe that’s just me. The grape soda, you got to try! It’s so nice, my husband literally had 2 cups during dinner.
They were really nice to give out some sample beef strips before we order. I think cause it was our first time there? The strips were super flavourful and tender!!
One thing I must say is, they don’t clear your table. I’ve asked them a couple of time but they just ignored? They brought out more of our food without clearing our table, and the platters were huge, our table got super cramp and we didn’t have enough space to eat.
We ordered 2 meat platters (they’re apparently for 1, but no way would i finish 1 to myself!) And all few sides, there was absolutely nothing on there that I could criticise, the meat was melt in your mouth, the sides were fantastic (the onion bloom being a favourite on our table, gone in seconds ha ha!).
Overall, I’d say you’re missing out if you don’t go! It smells incredible in there as well. We cant wait to go again!!
A special thank you to Jess for her professionalism, constant support and genuinely warm attitude. She brings such positive energy and always inspires happiness. Every time we arrive, her smile and kindness turn our visit into something really special.
The whole team is fantastic – attentive, organised and welcoming – but Jess truly stands out. It’s rare to find someone who clearly loves what they do and makes guests feel so valued.
Thank you for always making us feel so welcome. We’ll definitely be back, as always.
