We had a fantastic start to the summer with our Yard Party! It was great to see so many of you! Same again next year?

What an amazing day we had at our Southern-style Yard Party!

On Saturday 20th July, families filled the garden for an afternoon of live music, yard games, face painting, and plenty of summer fun. The atmosphere was buzzing, and it was fantastic to see so many smiling faces soaking up the sunshine together.

We kicked things off in true Hickory’s style with a smokin’ brunch — from stacks of homemade pancakes to bacon with maple syrup, eggs over easy, and mugs of hot coffee (with a few Bloody Marys too!). Guests then headed outside to keep the party going, while others joined us later to round off the evening in the restaurant.

From Memphis-style baby back ribs and hand-pulled pork to our legendary Texas-style brisket, the smokehouse was firing all day. And of course, a few brave souls even took on the mighty Go Big or Go Home burger!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the day so special — we can’t wait to do it all again next summer!
