Hickory Tavern Carrboro NC

We had visited this place when we first moved from Dallas 10 months ago and had a less than desirable experience. We decided to try it again and had some of the best service ever. Bella (Isabella) made us feel right at home and was very personable. The food was great and the GM made a visit to our table. I’m a restaurant manager myself and appreciated that table touch. In all, we enjoyed our visit and will be back. Thank you for making our day.

When this place first came to town I loved it. I have been to many family and private parties here. But over the years I have had some highs and lows. 95% of the time the food is great, and I think the cooks are excellent. I love how management will come out and speak and ask how is it going...but my issue most of the time is with the wait staff, especially if we have a larger group. Some are cranky, and I guess its not enough help on the floor. On one occasion, I had a snarky waitress who was just too chatty and "familiar" but not in a professional way; one was new and just couldn't get our (party of 4) orders right. But like I said, if there is an issue, management is quick and kind to fix any problems. I prefer a take out experience at this point. Hats off and 5 stars ***** to the cooks!

We were visiting from Florida and the Hickory Tavern was right next door to our hotel. This place is so awesome I can hardly believe we were so lucky to have found it. The food was delicious, fresh and hot. The restaurant was very clean and well kept. I thought it was a little pricey until I saw the huge portions!! Our server Adrian was absolute perfection. Love love love this place!!💞
