Southern-Style Summer Brunch Served in Chester

Inspired by a road trip across the United States, the owners of Hickory’s Smokehouse brought the flavours they enjoyed back to Chester. Since it opened in the city in 2010, residents and visitors have been enjoying a host of Southern delights like barbequed baby back ribs, fried chicken and juicy steaks sizzling from the griddle.

This year, the well-established eatery has announced it is serving up brunch every day for the summer between 10 am and 2 pm. A leisurely meal designed for socialising, brunch is beloved by families and friends alike, and Hickory’s offers second-to-none hospitality and greets diners like old friends.

Whether guests like sweet or savoury sustenance for brunch or a combination of both, the Chester smokehouse delivers. Stacks of fluffy pancakes and waffles are orderable with vanilla cream and toppings like strawberries, blueberries, hazelnuts and chocolate, but can also be served with Louisiana fried chicken or crispy streaked maple bacon.

All new for 2024 is the “Ultimate XXL Muffin”. This challenge for hearty eaters is stuffed with a sausage patty, bacon, grilled cheese or a magic-dusted mushroom for vegetarians and plates with a side of tater tots. Other options include kids size brunch plates of pancakes, and American classics like steak and eggs and French toast.

To drink, there’s plenty of coffee and juice, but for those celebrating there are Bloody Mary’s mixed to perfection, Paloma Locos with tequila pineapple and grapefruit soda and Grape Escapes laced with Violette liqueur and vodka.

Hickory’s Smokehouse can be found on Souter’s Lane in Chester.
