Tasty food and very nice staff! I did a late night mobile order one night and stopped by to pick it up about 10 min before close. It was only a small order, but the staff was very nice and understanding. They gave me my order and didn't mind at all that it was amidst them trying to close. The bbq with ranch, pickle was also very tasty! read more

Had takeout here twice, both times with an empty lobby and no one else waiting the same guy working hadn't even started making the order.. I think they just wait for you to get there instead of making it ahead of time, so sitting there awkwardly watching him start to make the order in an empty lobby has unfortunately happened both times.. It wouldn't be the end of the world if he was at least polite, or welcoming or friendly.. but he just stared and didn't even reply at all to my "have a nice night" attempts.. Sauce was good, food was hot, but not nearly as good as other competitors nearby. read more

Big yellow cups, tasty meats and good sweet tea...I enjoy me some Dickey's! This Dickey's sits at one of the massive shopping complex along Moores Lane that is anchored by Publix and PetsMart. As with most Dickey's, the space is small with the counter and open air kitchen taking up a good portion of the interior. I have a few go-to's when we visit Dickey's, which is on random office outings for lunch. Dickey's is in the rotation, so we see the inside of this place at least quarterly. 100% of the time I order the two meat plate with sliced brisket and jalapeno sausage with fried okra and mac n cheese. Round that out with filling that yellow cup with sweet tea! The food is solid, not the best barbecue, but good for a chain spot. The space has a worn feeling by design, but also could use a bit of TLC in some areas in the dining space and restrooms. Dining room is always clean. Staff is friendly and efficient. Overall, Dickey's is and will remain in the lunch time rotation! read more

I tried out Dickey's for the first time on a group lunch order on a rainy day. Usually I don't like group orders because most places screw them up but I liked that Dickey's package the condiments separately so that my giant baker wasn't soggy by the time I got it. Now the giant baker I underestimated that it would be this filling so i got a side of brisket, but the baker is more than enough on its own. However, im glad I had the brisket because it was amazing...so juicy and tender. So if lunch order went so well I can imagine it taste 10x better when dining in. I will be back! read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Giant Baker with Meat - Barbeque Near Me - Brentwood, Tennessee

I got a brisket sandwich combo with barbecue beans. Their brisket sandwich is probably one of the best I've ever had with very lean meat the way I like it. The barbecue beans were outstanding as well. However the physical plant needs some work. Inside the restrooms the sink handle is broken and the place just doesn't look clean. I hope the back of the house is cleaner than the front of the house looked. Service was also very strange. I walked in and absolutely nobody was visible behind the entire counter. Suddenly someone appeared to take my order. They must've seen me coming on the cameras or something - a very strange experience, but I would come back for the food. read more

Dickie's BBQ is under new management, and hopefully they will iron out the kinks. Turns out the bbq is all about who's the pit master. And maybe the new guy is ... new. What's good: people are nice and the place is clean. What's not so good: The ribs. Dry and ugly. Brisket - tasteless and ugly. Fries - Big and under cooked. The rest of the sides looked ok, and so did the pulled pork. They need to fix things pretty soon. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Mediocre ribs and brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Brentwood, Tennessee

The food is really good here. For sure one of the best barbecue spots in Tennessee. The service is great and the food is fresh. It's a nice and chill environment and everyone is nice. If you like good barbecue this is a good place to stop in. read more

I have been going to Dickeys almost every week for almost 5 years. I love the jalapeño cheddar sausage the best of all. I have tried the other meats and they are good too. But the cheddar sausage is the tops for me. I haven't found any other place that has the taste that theirs does. The new owners have jumped in a brought the place back to prominence that they once were before. Keep up the great food and great service. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - My stack of big yellow cups from the years of visiting Dickeys weekly - Barbeque Near Me - Brentwood, Tennessee

We did one of the food boxes and had it delivered for a bday party. The bbq, the jalapeño cheddar sausage, and the smoked chicken breast were delicious. Bbq sauce was on point. We got the potato salad, spicy green beans, and baked potato casserole as sides. All were fan favs. The only thing that sucked was we ordered a big thing of fried okra and it didn't arrive. read more

We visited a few time in the past few years and their quality has declined significantly recently. Portion size is down and price is up. No free ice cream anymore either. New menu and recipes are less impressive as well. Disappointed in the new management and the changes ... now it's mediocre at best. Plus, we got an email saying turkey was back (my daughter's favorite), and today there was a sign in the lobby saying they had turkey, but....no turkey. Not on the menu and employees said turkey is not back after all. read more

The food was just amazing. All of the meat was so juicy and tender and it was seasoned amazingly. The service was great too; everyone working there was so friendly and helped me very much with my order. I quite enjoyed the quieter atmosphere as it created a nice calm ambiance as we ate. All in all, it is great babecue and I highly recommend this place! read more

If I could give this "minus 5 stars" I would. So for the 4th of July we ordered the XL pack for a small party. Got it home and discovered that there was not enough food in this $95 pack to feed even 4 people. I called and spoke to the manager and he said that I must have gotten the wrong order since the XL pack would feed 12 (although later he corrected himself and said it feeds 8). So we drove the 20 minutes back up to store and the manager stated that our order was indeed correct and that "food is just expensive". We are not big eaters but there is no way this XL pack feed would feed 8 people. We will NEVER go back to this place. There are just too many other BBQ places to choose from! This place is dishonest. read more

I just do not get it!!! Why? Why can't people at this place wear their mask??? I seriously love their BBQ but this is so annoying! Covid isn't coming out of your chin! read more

One word: AWESOME! The jalapeño sausage and the brisket were top-notch. I know they are under new ownership as of some months ago, and they have turned the place around. read more

Was very disappointed. I've been here in past and have had a great pulled pork sandwich. Tonight I watched an employee pull a pre-made sandwich out of a warmer oven. The bun was very stale and the pork was cold. My side item, creamed spinach, was awful. Don't think I'll go back, too many places with better quality. read more

Very fun neighborhood place and we've always had good service. I don't know if they still have the special deal for kids on Sunday nights, but your kids (or you) are sure to love the soft serve ice cream cone that comes with every meal. read more

I love smoky barbecued meats of all kind! Dickey's is the best. The actual restaurant is sort of small and uncomfortable (Moore's Lane). But, get it delivered or pick up and you will not be sorry. Try the jalapeño kielbasa. The sides are just ok. The star is the MEAT! Yum. read more

great food great service. ben was AMAZING! star employee!!!!! he deserves a raise, friendliest pit boss ive ever seen

My friend and I walked in thinking we were going to get some Greek food. Nope Dickey's BBQ had moved in. The owner was proud to share with us newbies that they were based out of Dallas, TX and had been in the Cool Springs/Brentwood area for 9 months and yet to have people walk out disappointed. So it made me look really hard to try to find some errors. Though a chain in some parts of the States, Dickey's is a franchise and owned by locals! Order of brisket plate, a brisket burger and 3 sides between my buddy and I. Green beans, mashed potatoes and fried okra. The brisket had a great tender taste, not dry like some TX bbq. It had spices that gave a kick in your mouth but not too spicy. I actually love green beans and they put meat in it and seasoned. Some places just boil beans and no seasoning. Well Dickey's knows how to do it. From sides to a nice full menu. You can't go wrong. Yes they cater and next time I'm in gonna try the ribs! Clean place and friendly staff. Their sweet tea is brewed fresh and mixed perfect. OH and as was about to leave, FREE ICE CREAM CONES complimentary!!! BOOM. Too bad I don't eat sweets anymore. But that's a plus for any age! read more

Great tasting barbecue. We ate the pulled pork plate, baked beans, baked potato casserole and potato salad. We enjoyed everything. The potato casserole is basically mashed potatoes with cheese and green onions on top. The portions were a decent size. There are 3 types of barbecue sauce that is warm and self service. One meat and 2 sides cost $10.50. Meals come with a roll that wasn't very good. Free soft serve ice cream for dessert. Great ice machine and sodas are self service. Keep your plastic cup to take home. Several other meat options I want to try next time. I'll be back. read more

Ok. I LOVE their barbecue. And I have been coming here for awhile. They always serve great food. But they aren't wearing masks as required. And they seem really upset to be at work. And I get it. It is just frustrating to come in and support a business that does not seem to care about me as a customer. When I asked a question about the menu the lady was super irritated and literally rolled her eyes at me. I just want to have a nice interaction when I am going out to spend money. And I don't want to be made fun of for wearing a mask. read more

If you're in the area, you have to stop by! Very friendly owners and wonderful food! The bbq is fresh and the sides are delicious. The place is laid and relaxing. I can't wait to try them again. read more

I try to make it to Dickey's at least once a week for the brisket taco smothered in mac n cheese. It is so good. The service is always fantastic. Everyone greets you as you walk in with a friendly smile! read more

The sweetest husband and wife owner/operator duo served us the most delicious bbq! I got the pulled pork sandwich and my husband got the brisket and sausage. We were not only blown away by the flavor and tenderness of the meat, but the kindness and efficiency of the owners. They made us feel right at home! Not only was the meat fantastic, but the sides (fries for me, and fried okra and green beans for my hubby) were also outstanding. We will definitely be back, not just for the food, but for the exceptional customer service as well!! We love Dickey's!!!! read more

Amazing food and even better owners. Great taste and quality but also great hosts! 9.9/10

I walk in at 5:45 three girls sitting there eating dinner no one says nothing I stand at the counter they don't say anything finally I said are y'all open they look at me and they said we closed. I said it's 5:45 can you serve me none of them said anything they just looked at me like idiots. I will never ever go to this restaurant again. read more

Very good bar b que, the beans and okra were wonderful also. Very clean, people were very friendly. Will go there again.

What happened to this place? I just paid $15.75 for the Monday special which is a bbq pork sandwich, 2 sides and a drink. There were no pickles and onions, the bun has changed to this disgusting overly buttered bun. I mean, the smell of butter and bbq really doesn't go together IMO. The fries are now these thick short steak fry things, limp, undercooked, not good. Potato salad and pork were pretty good. Always liked this place, but these changes will cause me to look elsewhere. read more

A staycation lunch trip with the wife and kids, my in-laws in from Cartersville, GA and my brother-law and niece visiting from Germany. The food was delicious and the service was very fast and friendly. A young man (the supervisor?) recommended that our large group could probably get what we needed while saving a lot of money getting the Family XL Pack. He probably saved us $50 and we got to sample the excellent brisket, pork and ribs. The onion tanglers (rings), fries, green beans and Mac and cheese were delicious and the kids and guests all gobbled it all up. We'll definitely be back. read more

The owner is a great guy and supports our local EMS workers. Very grateful. Dickey's supports local and we should support them. Oh, and outstanding BBQ . read more

So let's start with the good. The fried okra tasted great and the Mac and cheese was good as well. I tried a few different meats and the two tiny pieces of turkey I got had a good flavor, the jalapeno cheese sausage was good and the ribs were okay. The roll that was included was cold and hard as a rock, I might use it as a door stop for my hotel room. I got both their spicy bbq sauce and their sweet bbq sauce and both tasted good (but to be honest I couldn't tell which was the spicy so don't go expecting too much). The sweet tea was really good and let's be honest, who doesn't love a souvenir cup!! Overall I probably won't visit this location again, but it was adequate. Don't be fooled by their cups though, this is NO WHERE NEAR: Legit Texas Barbeque. Not even close. read more

A few hours before the Pred's game, my wife and I stopped by the Dickey's Pit BBQ in Brentwood for an early dinner. We found our way through the dim interior to the counter where we placed our orders. My choice was the full rack of smoked ribs with a side of barbecue beans. My ribs were dry & smokey on the outside and moist & tender on the inside. There was a LOT of meat on each and every rib. There were three types of dipping sauces. I tried all three,but my favorite was the spicy. Now while those ribs weren't too salty for us salt aficionados, they may be a bit too much for others. These ribs remind me of the Memphis dry rub ribs that I had in the famed Rendevous in Memphis My barbecue beans, while good, were nothing special, but on my next visit I'll probably order them again. As pointed out by others, the ribs are a bit pricey. In light of the quality of the meat, I have no quarrel with the prices of the ribs themselves. What drove the price of my meal up was à la carte pricing structure. This is the first time that I've in a place that sold ribs that priced all the items on the menu à la carte. Krispy Kreme Donuts, cafeterias, McDonald's...they all sell à la carte, but none of them sell ribs. Anyway, I'm basing my rating on my meal and overall restaurant experience yr=yesterday and am ignoring their crappy pricing structure read more

For what you pay the amount of meat you get is VERY Small !! They are not organized and would not recommend going here & I killed a cockroach the size of a frog read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Barbeque Near Me - Brentwood, Tennessee

C- at best! Absolutely zero atmosphere when you walk in, no music, no sounds on the television... dead quiet. Indifferent service, ran out of two sirs on a Sunday EARLY lunch! Pork sandwich was cooked decently, but little flavor, bun was hard and sauce on the side in a plastic container( really cutting cost there), potato casserole Wes's just dry blan mashed potatoes, bbq beans had little to no flavor. Would not go back and would not recommend with all of the better BBQ options around town. Bill was $15 but honestly worth about $7.99 or $8.99 max. read more

This location needs to go. First of all, if you are unlucky enough to arrive at this location in the hour before they are scheduled to close, don't expect to be able to get sides or most of their meat or a place to sit. We made that mistake and adjusted when we go. The most recent experience was the kicker. Wanted to order the same family meal we always do. The bored out of her mind girl working the counter said that I couldn't order 1 1/2 pounds of spicy kielbasa and a 1/2 pound of another because the family meal only comes with 2 pounds. I explained that that is 2 pounds and that it's never been an issue before. She then pulls out this locations trump card and says we only have 1 pound of kielbasa available even though I watched her grab it off a stack of several. I left. I'm done. I will probably eat Dickey's again but not here. Whoever the owner is, please do yourself a favor and start getting feedback on your closing crews before it's too late. read more

Dickey's is the sleeper of the Cool Springs area!!! Among hundreds of restaurants, this place is worth a try. Okay, fine, yes I already left a review on the pulled pork and brisket. And now that Nashville has replaced Texas as the new barbecue capital of the world, the competition here is fierce. But the underdog Dickey's is pulling off the upset!!! Sure, it's not Martin's. Frankly nobody is. But for a quick, convenient stop in an unassuming strip mall space, the food here is fantastic!!! I had to review again because I just had the ribs for the first time. The guy behind the counter said they were mouth-watering, fall-off-the-bone good. He was right!!! What a surprise from the little restaurant that could!!! I'm addicted! read more

The staff is friendly and the food is tasty. I love the ribs and the brisket is so good! The ribs are nice and tender. It's not fall off the bone, but still good. I had the brisket a while back and loved them at first bite. I They were really moist and super tender! I usually have lunch every Friday. I highly recommend it. read more

I got take out on Memorial Day and I couldn't have been happier. Everything was so good!

We've been coming to Dickeys since they first opened here and have always has a pleasant experience. The quality of the food is incredible. As BBQ places go, the food can be a little bland on its own, but they have plenty of sauces which li can add to your liking. In other words, they rely on the quality of their meats rather than smothering the tray in sauce. The price is a little high, though not unconscionable. Again, quality meat is pricey and I get that, so I don't have a major complaint. I'll say that my main complaint is the text messages you receive if you sign up for the free drink. Man, they send those things out quite a bit and they're more annoying than helpful. read more
