| - Good Sports Bar...
I've been to this particular Hickory Tavern many times over the past few years.
Highlights:
-Diverse menu: They really have just about anything you could want to eat at a sports bar. Their wings are pretty good. I like to get them charred for a $1 extra.
-Phenomenal screen setup: I've been to many sports bars in and around the Charlotte area, and this particular Hickory Tavern has one of the best television layouts around. Whether you are sitting at the bar or in the dining room area, you are never far away from a nice, clear, HD, flat-screen to watch the game of your liking.
Lowlights:
-Service: The service is hit or miss honestly, and it seems like lately its more miss. Of course this is my own personal opinion, but I feel like it takes the bar tenders a while to recognize new patrons when they walk up and take a seat. It seemingly takes forever to get served that first drink, but once you do, you're good to go.
-Parking: Due to the other businesses and establishments in this plaza, parking can often be tight, especially when big games or events are going on.
-Price/Specials: To me, their specials aren't really "special". In fact, I would that this place is a bit overpriced as a whole.
All in all, Hick. Tav is a cool sports bar/restaurant. You can't go wrong with the food here, even though the service is often spotty. Not worth a drive in you are not in the area, but if you are, its a nice spot to check out.
