fancy hank's

we love a good bbq joint! fancy hank’s is great place tp catch up with friends and family!
we loved the venue and also the delicious food they offer.
particularly amazed by their sweet & sour bbq wings with yoghurt ranch and also their cornbread with sweet jalapeno spread and pickled jalapenos - flavours are amazing!!!
apart from those, we also had their 14-hour smoked rangers valley brisket with coffee molasses, red onion pickles, mac n cheese with provolone, thyme crumbs, bbq fries with tamarind mayonnaise.
i think the brisket was a bit too strong in flavour for me though, we couldn’t finish the whole serve!

after being told there was a minimum 1 hour wait at several restaurants in the area we popped upstairs to the rooftop bar here and put our name down for a table in the restaurant. no sooner had we ordered a drink that we got an sms saying our table was ready. it was almost a shame as the rooftop bar is really cool.
the food was mostly excellent. authentic american bbq with a few modern twists. the meat was all smoked excellently, tender, smokey and juicy. most of the sides and snacks we ordered were great, except i'd stay away from the potato salad. a bit disappointing. but definitely go for the pulled pork paired with the coleslaw 👌🏿
good service too. would definitely be in the top 3 american bbq places going round.

mouthwatering meat! we had a large group and were able to try a lot on the menu. i'd highly recommend the brisket, ribs and do not forget to order that corn bread!!! simply amazing. excellent drinks menu to suit the cocktail, wine and craft beer drinkers. cool vibe and service was efficient and vibrant. thanks for great night and keep up the good food.

as an american who's been away from true american bbq for quite some time, fancy hanks was a welcoming sight. i went in skeptical, as there is a certain magic and special touch that comes with slow cooked meats, but i left a believer. fancy hanks is an all around gem, from decor and aesthetic, to flavorful and tasty menu items. can be a bit pricey, but go all out if you can and try everything!

ribs place with no pork ribs unless you order in advance. honestly.
chicken was tasty but not what i wanted.
no finger bowl/towlette/facewasher/whatever to wash hands when it’s a really messy, hand using restaurant. end result: sticky and disappointed.

i love this place. the ribs is amazing.. a bit pricey tho.. love the coleslaw ... the lady whos serving us was really friendly and helfpul.. place is cosy
would recommend

we went to fancy hanks a few weekends ago for the first time, we ordered the pitmaster bbq platter and got:

🥚 deviled eggs
🥜 mixed nuts
🥩 beef briskets
🍗 buffalo wings
🍗 fried chicken
🍞 corn bread
🍟 seasoned chips
🥗 coleslaw

everything was great, full of flavor, good portions and cooked perfectly! the beef brisket was incredibly tender and fell apart so easily with just a touch. the wings were our favorite for sure! also, the corn bread was amazing & we’re still daydreaming about it. we 100% recommend you to try their platter 😋

the only downside was the restaurant space itself. we went there on a somewhat hot day and unfortunately they only have two wind pipes which weren’t really helping nor cool. i was struggling with the heat so we had to get the food to go and went home (luckily we live close-by!). so our recommendation is either get a takeaway or wait to dine in until the weather cools down! ❄️

we stopped this evening for a sneaky pre show dinner and were not disappointed!
we didn't have a booking but managed to get a seat at the bar (actually our favourite!). staff were welcoming and explained the menu really well. there were so many delicious looking sides and starters so we ordered a few of those! 5 was a decent amount of food! highlights were the brisket ends with beetroot (great flavours and textures!), the mac and cheese and the cumin fried cauliflower. collard greens were awesome but ultra spicy-a different type of heat than other items we tried and a little off the vibe of the food.
overall, great experience, left really full and enjoyed our dinner. will defs come again and are coming to try their sunday roast! thanks guys

the beef brisket was delicious and the sides were great - recommend the macaroni cheese and romaine lettuce. however, we ordered a whole rack of ribs - it came out very quickly and clearly had been cooked earlier and reheated/kept hot for a long time. the meat was overcooked and had no tenderness. loved the rooftop bar, good friday night atmosphere and espresso martini.

was a cool place to chill, good atmosphere. the staff were wonderful very helpful and knowledgeable. the drinks list was a hit with us!
we ordered a few items to share and it was a bit hit and miss. mac n cheese, fries and the sausage served with crackers were delish. chicken wings were tasty but they were pretty cold, the food was just a little bit ordinary.

after my first time at this restaurant, i knew this would be one of my favourites.

i have been to a couple of american barbecue places, but this one definitely takes the cake. the brisket from the pitmaster's selection 'from the smoker' with the accompanying sauces bursts with flavour and honestly one of the best things i have ever tasted has to be the cornbread from fancy hanks. 

every time i have eaten here, the service has been good and the food arrives quickly. let's not forget to mention the beautiful and classic interior design which does make you feel very 'fancy'.

we had the chicken which was smoked, the coleslaw and the chips. everything was delicious. service is fast but the tables for two are packed so tightly together it was hard to sit down or move. recommend a drink upstairs if you have to wait for a table.

two must haves on this menu - the devilled eggs and the brisket!! the brisket is melt in your mouth delicious with a smoky dish flavour. mac n cheese is good too. ordered the set menu and you won’t go hungry! you get a mountain of food including sides of potato, beans, coleslaw and cornbread. suggest if you are not hungry then to order separately. great vibe and friendly service.

celebrated my birthday here a while ago. catered to a large group of us with good service. had the beef brisket which was tasty. wanted to try the pork ribs as heard it’s yummy but it was sold out. got the mac and cheese which did not disappoint

our lunch here was not a happy experience. the food is that typical american bbq - pork, chicken and sweet sauces. unfortunately the pork is bland and the sauces are sweet and not much more. the salad - basically a supermarket bag type coleslaw- is just an after thought. the chips were soggy. just ordinary and could not recommend anything much about this place.
