Great atmosphere, and a nice selection of beer and other booze. Food is what you would expect at a ber, but nicely done. I was very satisfied with everything at Olde Hickory.

This place is a full bar and a local favorite apparently. There was an older crowd (like 60+) at most of the bar but definitely some younger people around too. Decent food, and 12 beers on tap plus bottles of Lindley Park while we were there. They are doing the Imperial Stouts right.

Stopped in here for lunch on the way home from a road trip. Glad I did. You can build your own flight for $1/brew ($1.50 for high grav). I’ve liked this brewery for a while, so I was excited to try it and wasn’t disappointed. Good selection of their own stuff on tap. Food was great - definitely pub food, but really high quality pub food. I was impressed.

This is basically a two room saloon style bar set in the middle of an artsy square across from a train station. The square had a farmers market goin on when we visited. Service at the bar was excellent. We did a flight of a crazy amount of their beers, fourteen or so. Didn’t try the food, but it looked like standard pub fare. Worth visiting just to check out the neat little area around the brewpub.

On our way back from the Asheville area last week, this place was a must-stop. Came here for dinner with the family. The establishment sits in a cool little area filled with coffee shops, wine bars, and art studios. Neat little area to walk. The place was pretty dark inside, and the interior didn’t flow really well. It was like there were 2 rooms. We were place on the non-bar side. Tap handles completely cover the walls. Service was decent. Waitress was prompt and efficient. The beer selection was really good, as expected. Most all of the OHB brews were available, even some of the special releases. They had a smattering of offerings from other local breweries as well, which was nice. But I was here solely for some fresh OHB. The food was fantastic! I got a burger and my wife got a pizza, and both were excellent. This place will become a regular stop on my way down the 40. Recommend.

I think DiarmaidBHK summed it up well. While the OHB brews aren’t exciting, they are solid efforts, and the prices are excellent!

Located in the heart of downtown Hickory, Olde Hickory Tap room is a massive place fronted by lots of free street parking. Te room is divided into a large restaurant area and the bar area. Lots of dark wood and brewers metro ilia on the wall. We went on a Saturday night and even with the loud music, no cover charge though, the service was efficient. They had 7 of their own on tap as well as 12-14 guest taps of local and regional craft. The bottles were mainly BMC. The beers were solid but not spectacular. The wings were fantastic. The best part is the price with OHB pints starting at $3.50. I’m not usually into the loud bar thing but the singer was incredible, I’ve never heard a soul version of Shine on you crazy diamond before, and I had a good time.

stopped in 7/12/11. lots of junk and beer related stuff everywhere.... even had a four peaks sign by the bar! bartender seemed like she didn’t want to be there. decent food menu of standard stuff but it is just that....only decent. dozen or so of their brews on tap.

October 2011. In the heart of what seems like a good old fashioned American town, OHB offers a wide array of house and guest taps alongside the standard pub fare lineup of food. The place is cavernous and adorned with breweriana. We didn’t eat, but instead sampled a handful of beers, all of which were fairly average. A previous rater described the service as "lazy and uninterested" -- I wouldn’t go that far, but the whole vibe here was somewhat apathetic, and I think that comes across in the food and beer as well.
