Chinese restaurants in the United States range from steam-table lunch counters to white-tablecloth Cantonese seafood halls, and most fall somewhere in between: a laminated menu, a lunch special board, and combo plates priced a few dollars below the dinner menu. Ordering by number off the menu is normal and speeds things up, especially at takeout counters. Family-style ordering, where a table shares several dishes with rice rather than each person getting an individual entree, is standard at sit-down spots and usually cheaper per person. Many neighborhood restaurants are cash-preferred or charge a small card fee, so it is worth asking or checking the door before you order. Delivery apps cover most areas, but calling the restaurant directly is often faster and avoids the markup.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 11 amβ8 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Really enjoyed our visit to Hickory River. The service was great, really friendly staff. We had the family platter and it was absolutely delicious, big portion. The only slight bit of feedback is that as it was quiet when we were there some background music would have helped the atmosphere. However, this is very minor and now our son has moved here from UK we'll def be back! Highly recommend

Not worth $60. They didn't include 2 of the sauces we paid for. Bean portions were minimal. Texas toast wasn't even done. Highly disappointed for the amount of money we spent.

I had the 2 meet plater, I originally want Ribs but they didnβt have Ribs on Sunday! The brisket was not good , it tasted like something you can buy at the supermarket. What kills The Whole experience is that they donβt have BBQ sauces available at the table or in a service area. They gave you a small portion and thatβs all. If you are from the south or anywhere that sell Real BBQ, this business itβs not for you. The place was clean, the staff was friendly and they have good prices but NOT outstanding BBq. If you are a business person that look for a place to have WiFi and get some work done, more bad News They donβt have free WiFi for customers (in 2026)

I got the chili cheese fries and peach cobbler with ice cream. The fries were tasty, the restaurant was clean, and the service was fast and great. I will return. The main down side was that the peach cobbler wasn't great unfortunately!

The food is great! I had the pulled pork sandwich, ranch beans and chili. The chili was good with just a little bit of spice, the ranch beans were tasty with a good barbecue flavor but most importantly, the pulled park sandwich I had was tender, smoky and juicy. They don't short you on the amount of meat you get on the sandwich either. If you've ever been to Paully's BBQ in Arthur, their barbeque is about the best around, but now they've got a serious competitor having Hickory River at the Fields now open!!
