I've been to numerous Hickory Tavern locations around the city of Charlotte and surrounding towns and this is probably the least impressive location that I have been to.
After being seated - we waited a total of 10 minutes before someone came over to our table to ask us what we would like to drink. The food is overpriced for the quality that you receive. I ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich with fries and the sandwich was incredibly bland and it was served with a side of blue cheese dressing. The dressing looked and tasted as though it had been sitting under a warming lamp because the temperature of the dressing was rather hot and there was a film that covered the top of the dressing. I chose not to use the dressing.
Needless to say I probably won't return - which disappoints me because I was pretty happy to see an establishment open in Indian Trail with a good amount of craft beer on tap.
