🏡 Smokehouse Style in a Village Setting
Located at 216 Cromwell Lane, Burton Green (CV4 8AP), just a short drive from Coventry city centre, Hickory’s Smokehouse brings the bold flavours and relaxed hospitality of the American South to the West Midlands.
From the moment you walk in you sense the theme: big portions, smoky meats, a lively bar and a space designed for gatherings of friends and family. With its open-plan bar, garden huts and inclusive feel, it’s a slightly different option from the usual city-centre dining spots.

🍗 BBQ Menu Highlights & Signature Dishes
Hickory’s specialises in slow-smoked barbecue classics — think Texas style brisket, ribs, pulled pork, smoked chicken and generous sharing platters. Portions are generous and the flavour profile is bold — smoky, rich, fall-off-the-bone good.
For those watching what they eat, there are vegetarian and non-gluten options in the menu too. Brunch is served every day until 2pm (with a wide variety of cocktails and shakes) and the bar offers hand-shaken cocktails, craft beers and a lively drink selection.
The venue is great for social dining, offering what’s for dinner Coventry, barbecue restaurant Coventry, and family friendly dining Burton Green.

🎉 Atmosphere & Family-Friendly Vibe
Hickory’s offers a friendly, social space — ideal for celebrations, large groups or families with children. There’s a special kids’ area, outdoor garden huts (dog-friendly too) and a bar area for grown-ups. Reviewers often mention that it “feels like a proper American barbecue spot” and the staff are praised for making visits feel special.
Because it sits just outside central Coventry in Burton Green, it provides a slightly more relaxed environment compared to city-centre venues — perfect for an evening out that’s a little different.
