Hickory's Lincoln is open & smokin'.

We are so excited that Hickory's Lincoln is now open. We've loved getting to know the area & have met so many great people - thank you.  It's now time to unveil our unique take on Southern hospitality to you, our neighbours and the good people of South Hykeham, Lincoln and beyond.

Come & join us - we'd love to show you what you've done with place & hopefully convert a whole host of guests to all things BBQ. Pop down & join us or book yourself a table.

Where to find Hickory's Lincoln...

 You'll find your new local Hickory's on Newark Road, South Hykeham! 

If you've been to Hickory's before you'll know that we're a family friendly restaurant & bar, and Hickory's Lincoln is no different.   The entire building - inside & outside has had a complete refurbishment. BBQ fans will love the Chef's bar (we think it's the best seat in the house). You'll get to watch the chefs first hand as they slice the brisket. Ask them for suggestions for hot sauces & get a real sense of the Southern States.

Families, groups of friends, the gang from work - we've got you covered. From cosy booths to party tables, you'll be able to enjoy each other's & soak up the atmosphere. 

Inspired by a trip to South Carolina where veranda living is not just an outdoor space, but a way of life, we've got a veranda at the front (perfect for a drink & dogs are welcome). Then take a look out back - there's a covered veranda for dining & drinking & our signature huts for dining in the garden – your own heated, private space.  Along with the garden we’ll have safe & secure outside play area for kids- it's the perfect place for the whole family, whatever the Lincoln weather has in store.

Your neighbourhood bar...

You're welcome to join us just for drinks at your neighbourhood bar.  Whether you're planning on stopping by for after-work beers or pre-dinner cocktails, consider it your laid-back local hangout. 

Sports fans... we've got you covered with multiple large screens that are perfect for catching the sport. Especially Sunday nights watching the NFL!

Younger guests are in for a treat...

Our VIK's really are our most important guests! We keep them entertained with table-top fun, regular special events, an outside play area and of course their very own cinema room that they can come and go as they please.

Our 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 pancake stacks& the classic mac ‘n’ cheese to burgers and popcorn chicken bites. There are also smaller versions of all the shakes.

No visit to Hickory's is complete without a trip to our Fro-Co creation station. Designed to showcase the one & only frozen custard (that’s Fro-Co in Hickory’s talk).

Authenticity is absolutely key for us & that starts with our smokers. So we've shipped our 'Ole Hickory' smokers over from Missouri & our Southern Pride smokers from Tennessee and they've taken pride of place in the heart of the restaurant. 

Smokehouse Classics...

You'll be able to indulge in classics like tender Memphis ribs, juicy Texas-style brisket, and irresistible BBQ pulled pork. All slow-smoked here using special smokers from Texas and Missouri. Our appetisers and desserts aren’t one to skip out on, so make sure you leave room! From Corn Dogs & Frickles to Cookie Sandwiches & Table Toasted Campfire Marshmallow, the perfect feast awaits. 

Close your eyes, take a bite, and let the authentic flavours whisk you away on a journey into the heart of the Southern States. 

Smokehouse Platter

Take a seat at the bar & try our extensive spirits collection. We're pretty proud of our Bourbons - that we've sipped, drank & collected on our road trips. If beer's more your style, we've got you covered. With easy-drinking session ales, including our exclusive Hickory's Pale Ale. And, we've got a selection of bottles & canned craft beers, so there really is a beer for everyone.

Our bar teams love nothing more than shaking up a cocktail. Our drinks list will be bursting with interesting mixes & classic combos that all designed to pay a nod to our Southern roots. Be sure to try one of our signature cocktails.  Go for the Game Changer, a twist on the Hurricane, a real fruity & tropical drink. Check out the Cotton Candy - gin & Cointreau shaken with lemon juice & poured over candy floss. Or if you like your bourbon as for an Old Fashioned.

So whether it's a smooth sip of Bourbon, a refreshing beer, or a Hickory's cocktail, there'll be a seat at the bar with your name on it.  

WE CAN'T  WAIT TO WELCOME YOU.
