We used Dicky's for our New Hire Luncheon. We had the Classic Buffet with pulled pork and the Texas-Style beef brisket which was absolutely Delicious! We also had the Macaroni and Cheese Bar and the Loaded Baker Buffet. Everything was a hit. The servings were plentiful and the Loaded Baker Buffet is a meal in itself with all the trimmings that come with it. it easily could stand alone. The delivery was on time, and they helped lay out the dishes, very professional. On my favorites List for sure!!! read more

Everything was awesome. The help was awesome as well. You can't wait to come back Nevin Graydon read more

Today we went with the family to grab a bite service was great staff was super friendly but this time the food was cold our bbq sandwiches were cold and the chicken was cold. I always thought bbq foods were fresh and hot. read more

I recently ordered catering from this business March 20th a for March 21st for my mothers 60th birthday and had a very disappointing experience. Several of the food trays were only partially filled, and at one point, three different meats were placed together in a single 1/3 small pan. This raised serious concerns about cross-contamination and overall food safety, which I found unacceptable. When I contacted the restaurant to request a refund, the situation escalated further. The owner personally called my cell phone and was extremely unprofessional. The conversation felt hostile--he was passive-aggressive, raised his voice, and even blamed me for "not ordering enough," despite the fact that I spent around $300. He also brought unrelated topics, including politics, into the discussion, which was inappropriate and uncomfortable. Overall, this experience felt disrespectful and poorly handled from both a food quality and customer service standpoint. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this restaurant for catering or family dining. He was hostile on the phone screaming and yelling while my children were present. DO NOT EAT HERE OR SUPPORT . They are very careless with their customer service and Mark is extremely insulting and screams on the phone and threatens you. VERY UGLY BEHAVIOR . He will text your personal phone number as well to harass you. read more

This Dickies is on a comeback. I had quit coming here because things had gotten so bad, but a friend talked me into trying it one more time. I'm so glad she did. We got our food before we even came out of the restroom from washing hands. The employees were cracking jokes with us as we went through the line. Will definitely be back. read more

the food was good, but the real reason for the 5 stars was the team and the cleanliness of the building. I used to eat here every Sunday but stopped because the team was rude and the dining area was never very clean or inviting. Today my wife and I decided to try it again and were so pleasantly surprised with the improvements. We're not sure of what drove the change, but we were glad to see it. Thank you, we will definitely be back again read more

Great service from the staff at Dickies today...welcoming greeting, happy staff, and my order was packed with care & ready on time! The ambience was nice...clean and inviting! The food was off the hook! Crispy fried okra and pork ribs hit the spot! A great Sunday lunch with extra for later! Way to go, Dickies!!! read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Fried okra & Pork ribs = Good eats! - Barbeque Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

The brisket was so delicious!!! Everybody was friendly and polite with prompt service. The restaurant was clean and orderly, from the tables to the window sills. Being from Texas I'm picky about my brisket but it was a warm welcoming feeling eating here, made it feel like back home!! I will be coming back soon! read more

Portions are extremely small for price. It's like the McDonald's of BBQ. Owner or manager was very rude.

My date and I stopped into Dickey's for lunch last Saturday and had an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality that set the tone for the rest of the lunch. The staff went above and beyond. They are friendly, attentive, and clearly proud of what they do. The food is equally excellent. Perfectly smoked brisket, generous portions (super important these days of shrinking portions), and sides that hit all the right notes. You can taste the care that goes into these plates. For quality and value this place was tops. Ultimately, what really sets this location apart, though, are the people. It's rare these days to find a place where you feel like more than just another customer. We felt like family. Can't wait to come back! read more

Haven't been to this place in a long time due to quality issues. But recently went back and the food was delicious. I got a pulled pork and sausage westerner. The meat was smokey and tender. Enjoyed every bite. If you've stopped eating here due to past issues, I highly recommend giving it another try. read more

Yes, this review was for the Puyallup location, was in town for work. Dry, dry, dry. Had the sliced brisket, pulled pork, and ribs. All were dry. They failed to remove the membrane on the ribs. The flavor was ok. The okra was decent. I wish I went somewhere else. read more

I will just start out by saying the food itself tasted fine. Got here at 12:15 in the afternoon and I'm the only person here. Their credit card machine is down so you have to pay cash. Ask for a three meat combo, double brisket, and chicken breast. My double order of brisket was four pieces the size of my finger. I wish I could post the picture so that you could see what I was talking about. I questioned her about it, and asked if that was in fact, a double order of brisket, to which she replied yes it is. I told her as nicely as possible, that this was not my first trip here. But I had never seen portion sizes like that at any dickies I've been to on the West Coast. I don't know, maybe they are in trouble and this is how they're trying to make up read more

We used Dickey's for our catering and knowing it changed owners recently and friends said how good the food was, we took a chance ! We ordered the Baked Potato Bar ( i ordered in store with the manager Candy, which was quick and super easy ) and everyone loved it. Huge potatoes, Mac and cheese on point and generous helpings of fixings and meat. I will use them again for sure ! Delivery was smooth and the delivery person was so nice as well ( Romeo) and was on time for delivery. 24 happy trainees and trainers. read more

We decided to try Dickey's again after a few years. My pulled pork sandwich was tasty (with a side of super salty fries) and my husband's chicken sandwich looked good. He ordered a side of Mac n cheese. Which we waited for... and waited... and waited... and here we are, plates long since cleared, STILL waiting!!! Finally he said he'd just take a side of fries to go... but guess what? We're still here waiting for them. read more

As someone who loves BBQ and is pretty picky about brisket, I was seriously impressed with Dickey's. I got the brisket sandwich and it was fantastic! Tender without falling apart. It wasn't dry or overly fatty! You can tell it's been done low and slow. I also loved the variety of BBQ sauces to choose from although the brisket could stand alone without the sauce. Everyone working was super friendly and greeted us the moment we walked in the door. Will be back and definitely recommend! read more

They're serving their sides in sauce containers to save on serving portions. Packaged our $45 meal a mess. Rude customer service. First and last we eat there. read more

It was very disappointing. I hadn't been there in a long time, but the food is mediocre at best. All of the meat was very dried out as if it had been sitting for quite some time. They used to have their separate sauces out so you could pick the specific sauce that you wanted to use that is no longer available they don't have a sauce bar anymore. Plus they used to have soft serve ice cream so everyone could have soft serve ice cream and that's also not available. There was no one else in there except for us and I think it's because the service has gone downhill and there's no real ambience. It's very disappointing and sad. read more

Received order of 3 meat plate via delivery service...was so surprised by the small portion sizes for the money, plus the brisket, though it tasted great, was so fatty, barely any meat to it. Had two sides of potatoes and cole slaw, each about 5 tablespoons worth. Texas toast decent, pie slices a laughable mini size smaller than the palm of my hand. For about $50, this was subpar at best and not enough for one person. Won't order this again. read more

Was very disappointed. Save you cash and get something good. Small portions and just thrown in the bag. Boo

The service here was great and the food was delicious. The employees were friendly and helpful and it was clean and pleasant.

First visit to Dickey's. Great experience! Greeted by friendly staff as soon as we walked in the door. They were very helpful to us as first time visitors relative to what we might like to try. The 3 meat platter was amazing and the side dishes were tasty! Nice to know they offer catering too. We will be back! read more

They are conveniently located right off Meridian in front of Bed, Bath and Beyond. We ordered the brisket plate which came with 2 sides and some Texas toast. We got mac n cheese and potato salad as our sides. I also ordered a 2 meat plate (brisket and ribs) with the same sides. The brisket was tender and well paired with the sweet bbq sauce. The toast was warm and fluffy on one side and slightly crispy on the other. The Mac n cheese was creamy. The potato salad had a lot more mustard than I prefer but it was decent. On the other plate the ribs had plenty of flavor but they were too small and you only get about 2 of them if you order it on the 2 meat plate. Service was very friendly and the line moved very quickly. They've got an Old West, Tombstone kinda vibe going which was cool. On the inside they have fountain drinks and a station to collect utensils, sauces and other condiments. read more

Ate here with a friend over 4 th of July weekend. Wow! The food was excellent and the service at the counter was top notch. I got the pulled pork platter with fries. Pork was cooked perfectly and the fries were hand cut and served crispy and hot! I used the sweet bbq sauce and my sandwhich and it wasn't too sweet and had great flavor. If you're in the mood for BBQ you won't be disappointed. Tons of menu options too! read more

Stopped by Dickey's in Puyallup for lunch this week. Great service, excellent food, wonderful all around experience! If you haven't tried them, stop in! read more

2 stars for food, extra star for decent customer service. Ordered the pork out platter Burnt tips were tough & a bit dry-would not get again Pulled pork was good-would get again Had the jalapeño cheese sausage which was ok tasting but the casing rough to cut/bite through & the texture was a bit on the undercooked side-may try one more time Ribs were a tad dry and little meat-I would order again Roll that come with just wasn't for me, dry & bland Mac n cheese is very creamy & flavorless Coleslaw had no sauce-see pics-no sauce I checked the bottom and there is no sign of sauce just a bag of coleslaw mix dumped in the bowl Cornbread muffin was good Was unfortunate we didn't like more than half our meal The employees were friendly & kind so added a star because customer service is very important. read more

What happened? Have periodically eaten here over a long number of years. My most recent visit was a few days ago for lunch at 12:30. It was so cold inside we could see our breaths. My pulled pork sandwich was cold. The sauces used to be warmed in a pot. Now, single serve that are also cold. My friend had wings which looked terrible, and she said they tasted like they were from the previous day. The only items I had that were any good were Okra and Cola. Both meals were overpriced. Unfortunately, it seems this restaurant is cutting back in order to stay open. Sad, because the staff is very nice and also friendly. read more

Alan who is apparently the shift manager made my wife extremely uncomfortable as he made multiple insinuations about her buying food enough for him as well so they could go off and have a time. After this, he argued with her about requiring 18% tip for a to go order. The floors and facilities are always grungy, and seems like the food has just gone down since we've been coming over the last few years. I put up with the restaurant because sometimes I just want something other than traditional fast foods. I called the restaurant to complain and Alan yelled at me and told me if I was a real man I would come to the restaurant and confront him in person, then hung up. Yes, Alan, I would, but I prefer not to live in prison, and at this point I don't know if I would show restraint. DON'T EAT HERE, IT'S GROSS AND THE PEOPLE ARE LACKING ANY SOCIAL SKILLS OR MANNERS. I'd give negative stars, but it won't let me. read more

Online order, rack of ribs and pound of Brisket. Driest Brisket I have ever had. How could the workers complete an order with Brisket that dry. The ribs were either boiled or baked, not a hint of smoke. Total cost for 3 people, with sides was 92 bucks. Total waste of money. Will never eat at this Dickey's again. read more

Someone call the health inspector!!! This place needs to be shut down. This place hasn't seen soap and water in years!!!! Then to make it even worse, when I was ordering I peaked at the back and this too hasn't seen a cleaning I'm years!!!! How in the world is this place even allowed to be open???? read more

This is tough, we ordered via a food delivery service and so I expected cold, limp food and that's what arrived, however this BBQ was very greasy, and the sides? Well, the dog ate them. The total cost of our meal wasn't justified by what we fed to the dog. Maybe if we actually dined in the food quality would be better? Hence the reason for 2 stars and (this is tough) review. But, We won't order from here again via food delivery service. read more

My feelings here are very mixed. The place was clean, the service was quick, the food was....as expected for a cheap chain BBQ spot in the Pacific Northwest. Now I sit here, writing this review, strapped on to my toilet like the astronauts strapped to the Challenger in January of 1986. Like those astronauts, I will not be back. read more

When I lived in Spokane, in used to be a big fan of Dickeys. I was happy to see that there was Dickeys when we moved up here. Unfortunately, the quality is no where close to what I was used to. It was weird to me that the menu didn't even look the same. The three of us ordered different types of meats and sides such as sausage, spicy sausage, brisket, ribs, bbq brands, potato casserole, cornbread, Mac and cheese, and fried okra. There were two things they all had in common: lacked flavor and tasted stale. Even the little roll that comes with the meal tasted like it sat there for several days. Every franchise offers free vanilla ice cream. The ice cream tasted like a pound of frozen sugar and the color even seemed off. I really got nothing that I can recommend. The location is easy to get to and has sufficient parking. The staff was also friendly read more

This review only pertains to the Puyallup, WA location. I do intend to visit some of the other locations to do some comparison in the future. The date of the visit was June 28, 2022, and it was around 3:15 p.m. Decided to visit because I discovered it not too long ago, and had a good dining experience while in Houston, TX with the same chain earlier this year. The location is in the south Puyallup area, on the west side of the usually very busy Meridian street. The exterior of the place has a rustic western decor, adding a bit of atmosphere to the BBQ served in the location. There is ample parking available. Entering the front door (facing east), you step into a not very well lit large dining room. Ordering and kitchen is located across from the entrance with the menu mounted on the top of the wall just behind the kitchen. I wished I experienced the BBQ smell immediately upon entry like I did in Houston, but that was missing here. There were 2 servers behind the kitchen, one of them appeared to be a trainee. Both were nice answering some questionsI had. To the side of the dining room, there is a self-service drink dispenser serving mostly Coke products. Beside that, there are three self-service BBQ sauce pots (Regular, sweet & spicy.), and small plastic sauce cups in a plastic basket for you to dish out as much as you want. I used the App to place my order. Had some minor issues with it, but that was resolved and everything went smoothly afterwards. My order consisted of 2 pulled pork Tuesday specials and I added the Jalapeno BBQ beans side. The order was to-go since I had to meet up with my daughter after work to return home. I would have eaten there if time permitted since BBQs normally do not hold up well when cold. Back home an hour later, it took a little time microwaving and that's it. (Pulled pork does not suffer much taste deterioration after microwaving that BBQ beef suffers in my opinion.) Taste-wise, the pulled pork was very good and I have no problem ordering it again and again. The highlight, however, is the spicy BBQ sauce, which stood out for me in Houston, and remains so with this location. It is one of those sauces that will enhance any dish anytime anywhere. It has the right bite, and is not too sweet. (BJ's restaurant offers a Peppered BBQ sauce that has similar enhancing characteristics, though not as spicy.) The Jalapeno BBQ beans were a disappointment however, and did not stand out especially with the steep pricing. Pricing-wise, BBQ places are usually on the higher end, and Dickey's is no exception. The chain does offer daily specials except for Sundays which minimizes the penalty. Supposedly there's a kids eat free Sunday offering, but I have little desire to be crowded in and eating with a bunch of noisy kids. Rating-wise, I give this place 4 stars. It will be adjusted after re-visits to experience other offerings. I highly recommend you come by during a day when plated specials are offered, so you can experience the sides with the main meat(s) for a better value and a more thorough exposure. Oh, please download the app, order ahead to avoid possible long waiting times, get bonus points and enjoy some free food/drink in the future. For now, you get 2X points during the 3-5 p.m. Happy Hour all week long. Happy eating ! P.S. Will update menu in next visit. Just noticed they were bad. Apologies! read more

Bean water? Really? Screw this place. Blew over $200 on an office lunch there and pretty much got ripped off. Shorted us on almost all the sides we ordered and the real kick in the teeth was the cup of BBQ beans was nothing but the water they were cooked in. Not a single bean to be found. Super stingy on the extra sauce as well. Everyone in my group of 9 order a side of BBQ sauce and they gave us 3 little cups. For a BBQ place you'd think they'd put some sauce on the sandwiches, but you'd think wrong. Dry as a bone with only a dollop of sauce to add to it as they didn't give us what we paid for. Save your money. Dickies? More like dickheads. read more

Update: Can't believe this place is still in business. The owner should hang it up. For a franchise, the restaurant is extremely dirty and nasty. The self serve ice cream had melted ice cream mix splattered all about the dispenser. The potato salad and mac & cheese were of the poorest quality....they are the sides of a one meat $15 plate. Way over priced nasty food. As a last ditch effort the the owner is offering an all you can eat on Thursday for $19.95. I was curious enough to ask...I'm so glad I did. The all you can eat is rationed in some odd 3 tiered system. Example: first plate is a set weight of meat, which is lowered at 2nd trip, and then the final trip will be your 3rd trip with even less food. That's not all you can eat. Customer service is exceptional. The staff is very accommodating. They seem to really enjoy what they do. I've learned to curb my craving for BBQ, because the chains of Dickey's that have sprouted up in the area does a horrible job of representing barbecue. They are really doing a disservice to the art. The brisket is probably the most expensive meat they sell and they don't know how bad they destroy their most expensive product and then expect to sell it to consumers. In order to make a profit they sell all the less expensive meats at the same cost of the beef brisket, that is a rip off. $16 a pound for some sausage or chicken? I say that because I order, Texas style, by the pound. I suggest sticking to the smoked turkey and polish sausage. They have a lot of specials between opening and 5pm that are a real bargain. read more

Really bad. Ordered through delivery service. Ordered two 3 meat plates. One small slice brisket which was so fatty it was not edible. Turkey had a bad taste, like it was spoiled and the chicken was incredibly dry. The potato casserole had black spots from bruised potatoes/spoilage. Was over $30 per person and ended up having to throw into trash. Extremely disappointed. read more

The people there are amazing, I've been there more times than I can count, also the food there is amazing, the portion amount was beyond perfect for me, thank you to the dickeys crew for all the great time I have had read more

We love Dickey's BBQ and have never had anything but delicious southern BBQ flavors until we are at the Bonney Lake location! The server was super friendly and polite. Very apologetic about drinks being Luke warm and flat! They we're out of carbonation and ice for soft drinks! But the worse part were the meats, stale and inedible! Will not be back! read more

DO NO EAT HERE!! My boyfriend and I each ordered a 3 meat plate. Kielbasa was very tasty... brisket was greasy and fatty, pulled pork was dry and we each got 1 rib and small side items! bbq baked beans were nasty and NO flavor. You have got to be kidding me..... 19.00 per plate and we each got 1 rib..... complete crap!!! We spent 50.00 and did not get enough to fill us up!! never again!!! OH an I preordered our food and set it up for 7pm pick up...... got there and waited 30 minutes! Expensive crap food, small portions and waited 30 extra minutes! read more
