The Beloved Brand Unveils the Latest in Its Menu’s Evolution With ‘Features’ Including New Shareables, Entrées, a Savory Side, a Delectable Dessert and a Peach Smash, a Seasonal Libation for the Ages

Charlotte, NC  (RestaurantNews.com)  Merely months after receiving national and regional accolades for its revitalized menu, Hickory Tavern today introduced more positive changes with its new “FEATURES” menu, a limited-time offering of fresh culinary creations, custom-crafted to bring an array of new flavors and creative options for its valued fans and new guests.

“We are keeping our foot on the gas in order to offer exceptional experiences and flavors to our valued guests,” said Hickory Tavern CEO Mark Eason. “While the overall menu changes have been embraced with wonderful feedback, we want to always keep our offerings vibrant so when guests think they have tried everything on the menu, they haven’t.”

Chimed Augustine, “It’s a nostalgic favorite that our loyal guests have been clamoring for. Inspired by the iconic Halal truck version, ours stands out with succulent Mediterranean-marinated chicken and our signature flavorful white sauce. It’s a taste of tradition with a deliciously unique twist.”

All of this comes on top of a successful menu relaunch under Eason which had sparked sales, team member morale and guest satisfaction, so much so that it caught the attention of the country’s top trade source and its coveted reporter Ron Ruggless:
