“I live in Raleigh but like to visit Little Washington a few times a year. The Hackney has been on my "to-eat" list, and I finally made it there. I am so glad that I did. It is an Autumn approved restaurant.The historic building is beautiful & was restored very nicely. The space has great energy. I loved the music that they were playing & the big windows.The food was delish! I had the fish & chips. The tartare hollandaise was amazing. I am still thinking about it days later. For dessert, I had vanilla creme brulee which is one of my favorites. It was very well done. I had the New Year, New Mule cocktail to go with it. The cocktail was so tasty. I didn't think that I was really a gin fan, but I would totally order that drink again.After my meal, Chef Davis came out to ask me how everything was & chatted with me for a few minutes. That was classy & made my day. He is good people.I will definitely be going back to The Hackney for a second visit. I love supporting local establishments that excel at what they do. I will encourage others to visit as well.Parking: There is street parking right out front, or there is a parking lot a few blocks away. Both are free.Kid-friendliness: I love kids but wouldn't bring them here. This is a grown up experience.“
“Absolutely phenomenal! Cant say a bad thing about this restaurant. Cozy vibe, live music and comfortable seating. Food was out of this world, I had the flank steak and my boyfriend had the lamb chop. Shared the bourbon apple pie for dessert, best I’ve ever had. This is our new favorite restaurant!!! Our waiter, Christian was exceptional, we would go back just to see him!! Great night.“
“Right on the river. You could tell it was a newer place and they were figuring it out. That did not take away from the excellent meal we had. One thing I really like is they offer smaller portions of meals (like shrimp and grits) which makes dining while travelling more manageable.“
“We have been to 1906 a handful of times and it's always great! Sunday we split a roast beef sandwich which was fabulous. I would just suggest toasting that roll because it was totally soggy on the bottom. But, i would order again!And the service is always efficient and friendly.“
