Hickory's - Wall Heath

Restaurant | Kingswinford | Angleterre | Royaume Uni

Le "Hickory's - Wall Heath" à Kingswinford est un restaurant qui apporte l'essence du Sud américain au Royaume-Uni et s'est fait un nom grâce à sa cuisine authentique de Smokehouse. Il fait partie de la chaîne Hickory’s Smokehouse, qui a vu le jour grâce à un voyage inspirant à travers les États du Sud des États-Unis, où les fondateurs ont appris l'art de la fumaison auprès des meilleurs Pitmasters. Le restaurant à Wall Heath représente une hospitalité chaleureuse, une atmosphère familiale et une expérience culinaire qui stimule les sens – un lieu qui est devenu une destination prisée tant pour les habitants que pour les visiteurs.

L'atmosphère du "Hickory's - Wall Heath" est chaleureuse et accueillante, caractérisée par un design rustique mais confortable, rappelant une cabane de barbecue du Sud. L'intérieur offre un mélange de bois, de métal et d'espaces ouverts qui créent une ambiance détendue, tandis que le vaste espace extérieur avec terrasse et cabanes chauffées est parfait pour des repas en plein air. Les familles s'y sentent particulièrement à l'aise, car il existe non seulement un menu spécial pour enfants, mais aussi une petite salle de cinéma et des activités comme le tennis de table pour divertir les plus jeunes. Le public est diversifié – des familles aux groupes d'amis en passant par des couples cherchant une pause décontractée – et le personnel est réputé pour sa gentillesse et son attention, inspirée par l'hospitalité légendaire du Sud.

Le menu est une fête pour les amateurs de viande fumée cuite lentement et de plats classiques du Sud. Un des points forts est le "Texas-Style Beef Brisket", préparé pendant des heures dans le fumoir, avec sa texture tendre et ses arômes de fumée intenses. Les "Memphis-Style Baby Back Ribs", servis avec un glaçage épicé et sucré, font également fureur et se détachent facilement de l'os. Pour ceux qui cherchent de la diversité, il y a des plats comme le "Southern Fried Chicken", croustillant et accompagné d'une sauce crémeuse qui ravira les papilles. Les végétariens ne sont pas en reste, avec par exemple le "Plant-Based Burger", qui se distingue par ses saveurs fumées et ses accompagnements frais. Les garnitures, telles que le coleslaw fait maison ou les Chili-Cheese Fries, complètent parfaitement les plats principaux et ajoutent du caractère à chaque bouchée.

L'offre de boissons est tout aussi impressionnante et reflète la culture des bars américains. En plus d'une large sélection de bières pression, y compris des ales et des bières artisanales, il existe des cocktails créatifs comme le "Bourbon Smash" ou des limonades et milkshakes faits maison, très appréciés des enfants. Le bar lui-même est un lieu de rencontre où l'on peut simplement s'arrêter pour un verre, tandis que des retransmissions sportives en arrière-plan renforcent l'atmosphère de pub.

"Hickory's - Wall Heath" n'est pas seulement un restaurant, mais une expérience qui célèbre la passion pour la bonne nourriture et la communauté. Il est fier d'utiliser des ingrédients frais et de préparer les plats avec des techniques traditionnelles qui préservent le goût authentique du Deep South. L'orientation familiale est soulignée par de petites attentions, comme du popcorn gratuit à l'arrivée ou la possibilité de faire griller des marshmallows à la table – un plaisir pour les petits et les grands. Le restaurant est particulièrement fréquenté les week-ends ou par beau temps, mais son agencement spacieux fait qu'il ne semble que rarement bondé.

Pour beaucoup, "Hickory's - Wall Heath" est un endroit où l'on peut laisser derrière soi l'agitation du quotidien et plonger dans un monde de saveurs et de convivialité. Il combine les meilleurs éléments d'un barbecue américain avec la chaleur d'un pub britannique, créant ainsi une identité unique. Ceux qui ont envie de viande juteuse et fumée, d'hospitalité chaleureuse et d'un moment détendu ne seront pas déçus – même s'il est prudent de prévoir un peu d'attente en cas d'affluence.

We ate mid-afternoon so it was a little quiet.

Not impressed! I'm a Google reviewer and don't often leave a one star, however multiple things went wrong on our first visit to this restaurant. 1, we had never been to this place before and the menu wasn't explained very well at all. We were told about the tasters, there were 12 of us at our table, we said can we have one each? The waitress said I can't do that, I can give you three, now when someone says they are giving you three things, you don't expect to be charged. If we were to be charged, why couldn't we all have one. 2, I'm a vegan, no tasters were available for me, upon asking, we were told there is nothing for vegans, very confusing as I managed to cook vegan food for myself. 3, My vegan burger was sloppy and borderline warm, my fries were a very small portion in comparison to other restaurants I've been to in the same class. The sauce that is served (tomato like) was not flavoured at all. 4, My brother ordered a large dish with lots of meat on, the ribs were over done, hard and not edible, we sent them back and some new ones returned at the end of the meal, I understand it was busy, but complaints should be replaced with urgency, too late for the birthday celebration as the meal was over. This should have been deducted from the menu as we did say it's a little late when they arrived to enjoy. 5, My sister ordered a fish dish, it was dry and tasted like the fish was borderline out of date. Again, with the reputation of this chain, not good at all. 6, we were sat close to the front door, freezing was an understatement. People kept coming in and leaving the restaurant door open. There was no automatic closer on here or if there was it's not fit for purpose . If we got up once to close the door we got up 15 times. 7, When giving feedback to the waitress at the paying of the bill, we found the attitude to be argumentative, hostile and non caring. Couldn't wait to leave. 8, I've given a two star for the service as we did have a birthday cake and they did bring that over for us. Summary: We were not impressed at all.

Had a fantastic birthday meal with friends but unfortunately I find with every hickorys smokehouse once you have ordered and got your food you seem to be forgot about and you don't exist anymore which is very disappointing, I have found this to be the same at 3 different premises now and don't think we will bother again.

Super good food. Were sat by the kitchen which was very loud with a lot of shouting. Very good place to come for birthdays.

My favourite place to dine out. Social distancing rules were adhered to and the serving staff were pleasant as always. A service charge of 7.5% is automatically added to your bill, which I feel is fair enough, however you can ask for it to be removed if you don't think it has been earned. The food is great and the milkshakes are the best - just don't have one as a drink before your food arrives, have one as a dessert 😋. Update - visited again for Sunday lunch on 9th October 2022 as part of my Son's 21st birthday celebrations. Once again, everything was first class, the restaurant was very busy, but the food and service standard was as high as ever. Tom, our server was excellent and made our dining experience a memorable one - if he doesn't already, the guy should have his own fan club! 😀 Hickorys Wall Heath remains my favourite place to eat.

Can't fault the food or service. Never had a bad meal, reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.

Finally decided to try here to see what all the hype was a out and couldnt have been more disappointed...Food is a joke for the price! Main meals are like a starter or a kids meal. Only 1 steak on the menu too. Poor service ordered 4 drinks and 3 were wrong, 3 different waitresses asking the same questions... Too many screaming kids for my liking! Needless to say we won't be going back there again.

A proper American style diner, awesome quirks from the menu to the furniture. Meat that falls off the bone and regular service to our table to check to see how we're doing. Didn't put a foot wrong.

My partner and I turned up a little early, hoping to get a table earlier than I booked. This wasn't a problem, so we went and sat in the bar area until it was our allotted time. By this time £40 spent at the bar.. we noticed people casually walking in and getting seated. I approached staff at the door who seated us immediately, (Unapologetic). A server came to the table almost immediately. I hadn't even had a look at the menu as if we were rushed to make up our minds. The waitress returned just 2 minutes later... long story short we had the platter for 2. When this arrived the ribs were overcooked to a point of burnt not smoked, I could've broken a tooth! They were uneatable. (My dog enjoyed them though). The overall experience was poor. I felt like I was eating in a dimly lit shed. Sat in the corner with poor lighting. The quality of food was not on par, well seasoned fries and the cowboy beans was all that was satisfactory. However the couple of slices of brisket was mouthwateringly good. You don't get monetary value here especially for the platter.

American themed smokehouse. Brilliant selection of food and drinks. Staff are second to none
