Great prices, menu selection and friendly staff. Food was delicious! Location was easy to find. Portions were satisfying without being too much. read more

This local BBQ spot is an absolute gem. The moment you walk in, you're hit with that smoky, slow-cooked aroma that lets you know you're in the right place. The meat is tender, juicy, and packed with flavor--clearly cooked low and slow the way real BBQ should be read more

Great restaurant and if it proves to be as good next time, an easy 5 star. Ate at the Claremont location a number of years ago and it was good, but I can't extrapolate from one to another. I was in the Hickory area today and looking for a good place for lunch. Been awhile since I have had BBQ and decided to try this one. What complicated things was that Susan was in Pittsburgh and I had Watson the Corgi with me and did not want to leave him in the car for an extended period of time. Walked in and was promptly seated although no thanks to my Iphone. I asked for directions when I was at the Mall and it said 5.3 miles and driving time of 2hours 13 minutes. Followed it and I knew something was off when ti told me to turn left onto NC 127 N and I knew it was NC 127S. Simple lunch of a Smoked BBQ sandwich with a side of Onion Rings. All was good and while I normally ask for no pickles. That said, if it's served with slaw, I normally ask for no slaw and it's not because I don't like slaw. I love slaw if it's fresh and nice and crispy and not soggy. Around here, you order something with slaw, the juice from the cabbage along with the mayonnaise become a slimy mess after 30 minutes. Was going to kick myself when sandwich came out but on first bite, the slaw was perfect with a nice crunch and texture to it. In addition, for my friend, Watson the Welsh Corgi, I ordered the Angus Cheeseburger with no buns, lettuce, tomatoes, or other condiment to go. Great service and very attentive. While I was waiting, my iced tea was refilled at least 4 times without asking. Looking over the place, not fancy and very rudimentary but clean and neat and very utilitarian. Sandwich came out and it was great. The BBQ is perfect and has the sweet taste that comes from hickory smoke. Was disappointed a first because it had no bite to it but then I realized the sauces were on the table and they were quite good. God Onion Rings as a side and they were great. I strongly recommend this restaurant because it hit all the marks and is a solid place to go. After I left, I drove home with Watson's Togo stripped down Cheeseburger and when we got home, he had half to the Cheeseburger and will get the other half tomorrow. Watson give it a four paws rating. read more

have bought hamburgers twice and both times they were very rare not cooked at all. The service is very poor and if you say anything to owner she will tell you if you don't like it you don't have to eat there. How professional! I wouldn't let my dogs eat at that establishment. read more

If I could give 10 stars I would lol. Hannah's BBQ came thru for a last minute business lunch order. I called before they opened and spoke with a sweet lady Dolly who got me in touch w/ the manager Tonya. Tonya made sure we had more than enough food to go around and she even delivered since we were on a time crunch. Everything was absolutely delicious and I can not thank yall enough for coming thru last minute! Best BBQ in Hickory! read more

Exactly what I want when I'm craving BBQ. Tasty food with great prices and friendly service.

My parents had been going to Hannah's for years. And, anytime I was in town, I made sure to go for their delicious pulled pork sandwich! I was able to take my Dad there for lunch after two years. He wasn't comfortable going out. But, a trip to Hannah's was worth getting out for him. He ordered the vegetable plate and while he normally eats like a bird, he almost finished everything on his plate! Of course, I had my favorite pulled pork sandwich and took one to go for my husband! I am already looking forward to our visit in March so we can go back! read more

Hannah's BBQ South - a plate of food - Barbeque Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

Went through the drive through at Hannah's BBQ South recently. The BBQ and potato salad was really great. Got some hot onion rings for a snack on the way home and they were some of the best that we've had. It's difficult to find a place with onion rings that good. You should definitely give them a try next time you need a BBQ fix! read more

A sweet lil' diner. Great atmosphere & fair prices. Staff was friendly and the chicken tenders are delicious!

Great food and service at a reasonable price!! My family goes there regularly. We love it!!

We were scared at first, having just left Virginia and an awesome bar b q/ smokehouse that has won hundreds of trophies around the country. We were so pleasantly surprised that Hannah's food is just as wonderful if not better!!! The Christian family atmosphere was the icing on the cake! We have our new go to place for bar b q Can't wait to bring our family in!! read more

Hannah's BBQ South - Ribs , brisket, pulled pork with onion rings and fried okra - Barbeque Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

We were travelling through Hickory and wanted some local barbecue for dinner. We decided on Hannah's BBQ and were instantly charmed by the decor and young lady who greeted us at the front! The menu had a lot of chose from. I opted for the BBQ pork plate with Brunswick stew and green beans. The pork was juicy and full of flavour. My mom had the brisket, which was debatably even better. The BBQ sauces were also amazing! I highly recommend this restaurant and hope to be back in the near future! read more

Love this place great burgers and hotdogs great BBQ & great service I recommend this place

After reading reviews for barbeque we decided on Hannah's. We are not from the area but I have a friend who always boasted the Hickory had NCs best BBQ. The restaurant is nothing special but it was clean and quiet. The waitress was very friendly. When an error was made and my wife was served the wrong side the error was quickly remedied. For the most part the food was good. The chopped BBQ was excellent and their hot NC style sauce may have been the best I ever tasted. On the way out I looked to see if there was a display of jars of the stuff to buy but I didn't see any. My wife had the brisket and said it was good. I also had a sampling of the ribs. They weren't bad but they were overcooked. The hushpuppies left something to be desired. They had a special on fried flounder and unless I miss my guess they cooked the hushpuppies in the same oil as there was a slight fishy taste. Prices were fine. My wife and I ate dinner for $25 including the tip. For me 4 stars is a good score as it is not now or will ever be a 5 star restuarant. read more

We stopped here while passing through town. Cute little place on the inside; sort of a western country theme with dinette booths. We were warmly greeted at the door and then by our waitress. I ordered the pork plate and husband ordered the B.O.B. Sandwich (bbq on a bun). My plate had crinkle cut fries (seasoned just right) and bbq beans (tiny bit of a spicy kick) and was really good. Husband said his BOB sandwich "was one of the best" he's ever had. The bun was toasted ciabatta and had the right amount of pork on it, along with some spicy slaw (he says he wouldn't consider it "bbq slaw" but it was nice and pickled and not full of Mayo) and dill pickles. We walked out full and happy. I only wish we lived in the area so we could try out some of their Tex-Mex/Mexican inspired options. Maybe on another trip... read more

On our visit to North Carolina my wife and I wanted some real local BBQ. Hannah's was recommended. Upon arrival we were greeted and seated immediately. Our server,Tammy recommended the combo platter. My wife had the brisket,ribs and chicken with pinto beans with onions and fried okra. I had the chopped pork,chicken and ribs with macaroni and cheese,and BBQ beans. We each got 5 of the best tasting hush puppies. All of their sauces are house made,the vinegar base sauce was great. For dessert we each had some fresh baked blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream. Every thing we had was well prepared with good balance of flavors. I am a professional chef with 30+years experience. Wonderful food and service. read more

I always like to try local places when I travel for work, and BBQ is one of my favorites so I was excited to try them out. However, I have mixed feelings after eating lunch here. I've always found that a good sign of a good BBQ spot is how good their Mac n cheese and hush puppies are. Both here are good which was a good start. Unfortunately the brisket was a let down. The meat itself didn't have a lot of flavor to it (but the house made sauces were good and had a nice flavor) and the slices I got looked more like bacon with the amount of fat that was on them. They either need to smoke the brisket longer so the fat breaks down and melts into the meat, or just trim that top layer off before slicing it to serve. The server was very polite and made sure to swing by the table a few times to check on things. Overall, I'd say they are middle of the road (based on this one visit). Not bad, but not somewhere I'd be dying to come back to. read more

They were extremely accommodating since we were traveling. They served us right before they were closing early for a holiday. We have a son with a food allergy and they went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of and had food he could eat. read more

If travel wasn't an issue, I'd honestly pick Dickey's. I ordered the Chopped BBQ plate along with mac and cheese and a baked potato. The BBQ was okay. The sauce that they place on the table for it isn't that great. It has a nice flavor, but not what I wanted. The mac and cheese was watery. "If they dialed it back down on the amount of water, then it'd be really good." - friend The baked potato was okay. I liked that they weren't stingy on the butter and sour cream. The service was good. The waitress kept up with drink refills and she was very nice. Overall, I wouldn't come back unless somebody really wanted to come. read more

Excellent BBQ! Tender, tasty and plenty of meat. If I lived closer, I'd be here once a week. Service was friendly and the business is very clean. I got the chopped pork sandwich and it had a great coleslaw on top, with a nice tangy NC BBQ sauce. The other reviewer said the fries were great. But I didn't think they were that good. They were thick and crinkle cut, but weren't that crisp and just an OK flavor. I probably wouldn't waste the calories again. But, definitely stop here for a sandwich if you are in Hickory. read more

The food is usually WONDERFUL. The portions are small compared to the prices they are charging. That is the only negative thing about this place, and one reason we eat here less often. read more

On military business heading to Asheville made a stop at Hannah's. Small BBQ plate was plenty to travel on ... variety of sauces to choose from and lunch menu for a sit down or drive thru was budget worthy. read more

Hannah's BBQ South - BBQ small plate with pulled pork, Mac n' cheese and collards ... yummy! - Barbeque Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

First time eating here and I have to say that this is some real good BBQ! The pulled pork is tender and not dry, the BBQ baked beans come with shreds of the BBQ pork in it. The hush puppies are soooooo good and the sweet tea is on point!!!! The service was fast. Jill was awesome and checked on me often. I will be coming back again. read more

Stopped in for order to go. Large rib dinner with Mac and cheese and pintos. Ask for extra bbq sauce. Waitress was as sweet as could be. Within less than 5 minutes my order was ready with pleasant exchange with waitress. I was pleased with the amount of ribs when I opened at home. Made an extra meal with left over ribs. Glad I asked for extra sauce. read more

Just ate here., 2/10/2016. Had the combo plate, country style rib, chicken, pulled pork. Sign outside says "hickory smoked" Absolutely zero smoke flavor in any of it. Did not enjoy the ribs or pork. Chicken was OK. In general it was a disappointment. Would not recommend. Service was very friendly. read more

I did a BBQ fly by here getting a sandwich to go. Generous portion of que on the sandwich which came with slaw and sauce on the sandwich and pickles on top of the bun. The pork was tasty, but didn't have much smoked flavor. The slaw was good, and wasn't overly sweet. Check them out! read more

Hannah's is great if you are wanting chopped pork. I notice most of the negative reviews are folks getting things other than what Hannah's is known for. Go for the chopped pork plate with white slaw and fries or onion rings and you won't go wrong. It's the best value and comes with great hush puppies. I love that they offer BOTH vinegar and ketchup based sauces. Folks from both sides of the BBQ sauce battle can eat in harmony. read more

Don't get the ribs. They're dry and tough. Hannah's is my least favorite chain in the area. I give them chance after chance and they never seem to disappoint read more

Nice atmosphere but service slow. Disappointed in the size if the bowl of soup vs cup. The bowl would barely measure a cup. My husband had the chicken sandwich and it was good. Probably could pick a better place. read more

my favorite sauce! Good prices, hush puppies are excellent...

Food is great and always tastes wonderful, but for the price, you can find better BBQ in Hickory. I'd recommend trying Dickey's on LR. They give you more food and it costs about $5 less per person! read more

Love, love, love this place! Food is always top notch and in my opinion, their tea is the best in Hickory! The variety of food options offered is incredible for a BBQ joint. I'm from Texas originally and I must say, Hannah's South does a great job keeping my Texas size cravings at bay! The staff is so friendly and I really enjoy the music as well! Thank you for creating such a wonderful atmosphere that I'm proud to bring my kids to! Hannah's is one of the first places I bring my out of town guests because I know they will have great food and great service!!! read more

The Ribs I had were tired and dry. May have been originally cooked a few days ago and reheated. Had an after taste of having been chemically smoked. The French fries were the crinkle cut bag variety but we're prepared well. The hush puppies were actually pretty bad. Somewhat rubbery in texture. Definitely not made on the premises. Most likely from a bag of frozen. Taste, even for hush puppies, was fairly bland. The service was attentive and friendly. The 127 location has always got a fairly good crowd. Perhaps I'm just a BBQ snob but what I had wasn't my cup of tea. read more

Great chopped bbq! Friends brought us some bbq from Hannah's while visiting us in Ohio, so while visiting NC we had to stop in and check it out. We didn't have the address and couldn't find it in Hickory while "searching" in maps but luckily our friends gave us directions to it. We all had the smoked chicken and it was good but I'd say the chopped bbq is there speciality. You can get bulk bbq to go so yeah, we've got 5 lbs to take back to share with friends. Loved both the vinegar & tomato base sauces. read more

I have been to Hannah's three times now. Although I am about 45mins away, I try to stop by when I am in the area. The BBQ here is good. However, the hushpuppies are what keeps me wanting to come back. Please note that you have to ask for red slaw or you will get white slaw. read more

This is the second time my call in order has been wrong!!! The first time I went to the pick up window and received my food, drove away with my daughter going through the plates. She asked "who ordered apples?" Is when I realized something was wrong. I pulled into a parking lot, OPENED ALL the plates and nothing was what I ordered. Drove back , went in and explained none of the food was my order, the girl took the ENTIRE bag and gave it to a car waiting at the pick up window! Really! Second time I called in an order, my husband picked it up. One plate was wrong so I called them and was told they could take my name and give me a free chicken plate later. Well great but, what about now? I would like some dinner! Not a very good way to do business. Food is fair at best. You can't be sure if anyone has played in your food before you get since it seems to be their practice to pass out wrong food to customers.This is the last time I waste my money, time, gas, and possibly my family's health! read more
