I hadn't been to Dick's in ages and it sounded good. I ordered 2 Dick's Deluxe and an order of fries. The food took me back in time. The burger had two fresh patties with melted cheese. It was topped with their signature pickle relish. The bun was nice and soft. The taste of the burger was a symphony in my mouth. The fries were fresh and perfectly salted. Eating at Dick's is line going back in time. Feels like an old school drive in where you beat on the trunk of your car. It has a great ambiance. Service was quick and very friendly. I will need to put Dick's into my rotation of restaurants to visit. read more

Nice place, very cheap burgers But my favorite thing here is milkshake 10/10 Super quick service and always fresh read more

One star removed for lack of seating. Please add some picnic tables or something outside. You've got a captive audience from those staying at the airport hotels. It sucks if you don't have a car. read more

I don't know what made this experience so good today whether it was the employee at the front counter or the food they were both wonderful. I'm telling you what this guy was on it he was helping me. I accidentally spilled my eyes. He wiped it up. he was mannerly. He was sweet. He made a smile become a warm feeling That spread throughout the day. I'm telling you what if this guy doesn't make manager, I would be surprised Dicks is wonderful. Their hamburgers are great. You can get hamburger french fries and a drink for $10. It is a great lunch and a great experience. Thank you so much for everything and also they have handicap parking and since I'm elderly that works for me five stars go out to you and keep your eye on that employee. read more

50s style walk up burger joint! Shakes, burgers and fries, what more could you ask for! The burger is yummy, cheese is gooey and bun is soft! The deluxe has a sweet relish so choose to leave that off or not depending on preference. Fries are fresh cut and similar to Wendy's. Yummy! Service was friendly and very very fast! Overall good experience! read more

Second time at Dicks, but 1st time at this location. This location was much better than the other location. The burger was much better. I love the sauce they use, its different than other burger places, who use 1000 island type sauce. Dick's pickle base sauce is just different and good. The ice cream was great the huckleberry ice cream was very good. The service was good and friendly. read more

We were visiting Seattle and stopped by this nice old school burger place. It's really nice. The service is good and the food is as well. The star of the show were the French fries and tartare sauce. So yummy . Please try the root beer as it is the best I had ever had. My daughter had the mint chocolate chip sundae with butterscotch. The food came out fast! I would prefer it over the larger chain burger placed. Go check them out. read more

Burger was bland, small patties, oily. Fries were soggy and horrible. Chocolate milkshake was decent. Not sure what the hoopla is about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Win5M-yTEA8 read more

Decent stop. Heard a lot about Dick's Drive-In but never had the opportunity. This location was the closest to our airport hotel so we placed a delivery order on their site (DoorDash) for a late dinner (around 10:30). Ordered 2 Cheeseburgers (1 Deluxe), 2 Fries, and 1 Chocolate Shake. Got the food delivered in about 45 minutes. Food was fine, good for limited options at 11 PM. Definitely gave a diner food vibe but minus the delivery fees, the prices aren't too bad. read more

We were told Dick's Drive In is the local fast food burger joint to try. You park, walk up, order, and leave. No tables. Simple menu with 6 types of burgers ranging from $2.45 to $5.30, fries, ice cream, shakes and sodas. No combos, all a la carte. We got the 1/4 pounder deluxe which had two thin patties, cheese, lettuce, mayo and chopped pickles. I hate pickles but it was so well disguised by being chopped like relish and that sauce was the best part for me. The bun was soft. Also got the fries. Loved it. It's like, if McD and In n Out had a baby. Condiments cost extra and it comes in a container. Just a basic inexpensive burger that tastes so good! Definitely coming back another day. read more

Okay so I lived in Washington for my first 25 years and never tried dicks. I know, don't judge me. I just never got around to trying it and didn't care to go out of my way. With that said, I have a few thoughts. I personally think the burger itself is over hyped. People have told me it's one of the best fast food burgers in the greater Seattle area, and I think they were saying that based on pride. Like it was good, but not the best thing I've ever had. With that said, I do think the bang for the buck is pretty darn good. The deluxe is a solid amount for $5, especially these days. Compare that to other fast food places and it's right on par with what you'd get. Plus, dicks does a lot for the community and always gives back. It's a worth a visit just because of that. I'm happy to try i finally tried dicks and although it's not the best, it's definitely solid and a reliable stop for a meal. read more

3 - Meh, not horrible, but not worth a second trip Dick's Drive-In - Kent, WA Stopped by Dick's in Kent to try the classic experience--50s-style burger joint with no indoor seating. You order at the window and either take it to go or eat in your car. The service was friendly and the place was impressively clean, which I appreciated. I ordered the Dick's Deluxe Burger, which is a quarter-pounder made with two 1/8 lb patties, mayo, chopped pickles, and lettuce. Honestly? It was mediocre at best. Nothing bad, but nothing memorable either--just a pretty underwhelming burger overall. What really surprised me was that they charge 20 cents for ketchup. Not a dealbreaker, but it definitely left a weird impression. In a world where most places toss in a few packets for free, it felt unnecessarily stingy. Not a terrible experience, but nothing that makes me want to come back. If you're into the nostalgia factor, maybe it's worth a stop--but for me, it was a one-and-done. read more

First time trying this place after hearing its Seattle's in n out. I would say it's decent but not a place you must have. I'm glad I tried it and if it was next door to my hotel I'd try it again for convenience but I wouldn't go out of my way again. Fries are seasoned well but they don't have ranch so if you love fries and ranch like I do then keep that in mind. 1/4 deluxe burger is decent. It's on the smaller side, about the size of a double cheeseburger from McDonald's so if you have a big appetite you might need more than one. read more

Eater Seattle claims this local burger shop as one of its favorites for takeout. Wanting to try something local and iconic, I bookmarked this location because it is the closest to the airport. Upon arrival, I was excited to see a retro midcentury design with an open kitchen concept and a large parking space to dine in the car. I would give a thumbs-up to the service. When I explained it was my first time trying it, the server recommended trying the shake. What I ordered: DICK'S SPECIAL (One Patty, Lettuce, Mayo, Chopped Pickle) - The order came out quickly in a big brown bag. The burgers were neatly wrapped, and while I appreciated the soft buns, the burgers did not bring much excitement, as I felt they lacked depth in flavor. It honestly felt like a one-and-done experience visiting the city. KETCHUP--NOT FREE. I paid $0.44 for two, and they came in neatly sealed plastic containers. FRENCH FRIES - The fries were overcooked and a bit flimsy. VANILLA SHAKE - The shake was tasty and comparable to the shakes from In-N-Out. About three-fourths of the way through, I poured hot Americano into it, and it tasted like sweet coffee. read more

Dick's Drive-In - To go - Fast Food Near Me - Kent, Washington

If you are a fan of Dick's Drive in (and many people who live in Seattle definitely are) then Kent is your destination!! From the SeaTac airport, drive down southbound I-5, and hang a right on exit 149, then southbound again on Pacific Highway. Keep driving until you see the Dick's Drive In sign! Yes, you will go out of your way, like I do. And, oddly, it's not as far away as you think. You do have to some street maneuvering to get there, as it's not a quick turnaround to get there if you are driving southbound, but it's manageable. I'm not sure how busy it is on weeknights, but for sure, it can be crowded on a Friday or Saturday night. And it won't fail you if you want to get there before 2am if you are needing that Dick's Deluxe burger with special-fry sauce. And make sure you time your journey accordingly, because when you order your fries, you want to make sure they are still nice and hot - the draw back of making fries with fresh potatoes every day. I personally don't get shakes with my burgers, but like all other locations, they have them and they are efficient when getting them out, and they are just as tasty in Kent, as they are in every other location that Dick's has a store. So, when you are in Kent, you know where to go! No explanation needed. It's Dick's! read more

WELL PRICED CHEAP BURGERS - Dick's is a great alternative to a McDonald's cheeseburger, super affordable and reasonably tasty. No modifications are possible and as a drive in there is no seating available. It's iconic in the area for a reason with a huge following of ardent followers, including Kenji Alt Lopez if I recall correctly. People love this place but I'd rather spend more for a more gourmet burger. Still sometimes you just want something reasonably good and affordable and Dick's is both of those things. Happy eating from John Seeto! read more

Dick's Drive-in: A Legacy of Quality and Simplicity Since the 1950s Dick's Drive-in has the very best burgers around. Each burger is made to order, crafted with care, and simply designed to be straightforward and efficient--no complicated modifications, just classic, delicious burgers made quickly with quality ingredients. The process is a well-oiled machine: one person is slicing fresh fries in the back, another is expertly making hand-spun shakes, a third is preparing the patties, and another is dressing the burgers as they go. This teamwork allows them to serve hundreds of hungry customers efficiently, especially during busy lunch hours when lines can swell to 30 or 40 people at a time. Yet, they effortlessly fill those orders and keep everything moving smoothly. Over the years, Dick's has also made a real difference--helping kids go to college and giving back to the community in countless ways. How many fast food places can you say do that? Their burgers are always fresh--never frozen--and they use high-quality ingredients every single day. If you're looking for great food at a fair price, Dick's delivers. During peak times, you can enjoy your meal outside at their little seating areas or take it to your car. And don't miss their handmade shakes--my personal favorite is the strawberry. It's so thick and flavorful that you can barely get the strawberry through the straw! If you're craving simple, honest, delicious burgers made with care and history, Dick's Drive-in remains a truly special place. read more

Several people said we had to try Dicks before leaving Seattle. After eating there not sure why. Service is very fast but it's hard to hear through tiny windows. It's easy to order though since they only have 5 items. We had the deluxe, fries and chocolate shakes. The amount of sauce on the burgers is crazy. It just oozes out and makes a mess. The fries are greasy and limp. Shake was thick but little chocolate flavor. Not sure I need to come back. read more

Second time here because when I searching burgers In Seattle and the pic of Bill Gates waiting in Dick's burger always pops up, that makes me want to try. Compare to other burger places, Dick's burgers are definitely cheap, burgers start from $2.45. Can you believe a burger only $2.45? Just like cheap airline concept, every additional item cost extra lol, onions, ketchup... all cost extra but still cheap. No complaints about the food based on their prices. However, I really really hope they can offer more food selections! By the way, they open late which is really convenient for night owls. read more

This is an FYI, we purchased over $30 worth of food, only to come home and find that they didn't pack one of our deluxe. I was too tired to drive back and decided to call the next day. Basically, all they said was they could not confirm that they made a mistake and would not give us the missing burger but only offered us "comps" which isn't enough to get us the missing burger. So, if you ever order from them, MAKE SURE YOU CHECK UR BAG before you leave! Because they don't give a damn about you or their mistakes. Can you imagine losing a customer over a burger because it's more important that they're suspicious of you like you're lying than to own up? Thank you for your comp but no thank you. Train your staff better. read more

Dick's Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Kent, Washington

After a long flight with limited food options in the evening, Dick's drive-in was a solid choice. You can't go wrong with burgers, fries, and shakes. It's simple, satisfying, and super affordable. They get your order out fast, which is probably why they don't allow customizations to the burgers. I was a bit bummed that I couldn't get a plain cheeseburger with just lettuce, and they didn't have a plain cheeseburger at all. It's likely because everything is premade. Still, the burger, fries, and shake really hit the spot. There's no seating, so it felt like an old-school drive-in experience. I honestly can't remember the last time I ate in a car. Good thing it was a rental! read more

Not sure what the hype is all about? Definitely not the food. Sure it's setup to bring back memories of a time gone by but the food sucks. Thin beef patty's, soggy fries. 1/4 pound deluxe, order of fries (they only come in one size) and a milk shake shouldn't be $14. read more

Rude impatient staff. Ordered food and told I needed to wait for an item. I waited by my car parked directly infront of their counters. Guy finally called me up to grab an ice cream cone and made a big deal out of how he had to "make it three times because I left somewhere and should just wait there for a few seconds". At first I said my bad (even if it wasn't, I was waiting there the entire time. Did not leave the vicinity). I was standing there infront the entire time and did not hear this dude call out once. He then got all defensive and called me a b*tch hiding behind his little counter when I called him out for his poor customer service and should yell out louder next time. (btw, maybe with that beta passive voice you got you shouldn't be calling anybody that word.) Keep in mind this dude kept escalating over a icecream cone complaining about how he has to do his job by... get this, making a simple icecream cone. It's not my fault you don't communicate well and can't manage your time and work well enough to not have to constantly remake a cone??? just give it to me with the rest of my food Train your staff better. There's a reason you're making minimum wage working at dicks. loser read more

70 years! Still family owned! Unique throwback to an more simpler time. One that McDonalds lost a while back. Going here is like stepping back into the 50's. Where can you get Tarter on a Hamburger? It's a NW/Northwest thing. Only we get it? Another aspect to food is the atmosphere and it's employees and how they're treated. Dick's has been well known to support their staff like only a few other restaurants. Another is their events like yesterday. So much fun to be surrounded by humble talented innovators and sculptures. We celebrated cars from the 40's to the 60's. They also provided us with food and memorabilia. The merchandise for Dicks is super awesome and I suggest the cool blue hats and shirts. Thank you Dick's!!! read more

If im being honest wasn't all that. It was very underwhelming in the taste category. The prices make it perfect after a night out

Dick's drive In is the place to go for a lazy, at home movie night, late night snack. It is the iconic Seattle Burger drive -in. The menu never changes, except for the ice cream flavors, periodically. When you order a burger, you know exactly what you'll get & always hits the spot! And the fries? Some call it soggy, some greasy, I say, gimmee more fries with my Dick's Deluxe Burger! read more

Came here to pick up some burger and fries. The service was quick and ordering was easy. We ordered cheeseburgers and lots of fries. This place is better than in n out. The cheeseburgers tasted so good, but just plain ones. The deluxe was too fancy haha. The fries even though their bendy are still so good! Will definitely come back! read more

Not a bad little late night snack. Basically think of a "non franchise" knockoff in n out lol I don't mean that as an insult either. Visited from California and was recommended this spot. Food is cheap but taste pretty decent. Had a deluxe burger combo and didn't break the bank for it. They get your order served quick and parking lot was large so major plus points for that read more

Great place for a late night bite after a night out or anything really since they're open late. I'd say overall, the food is mediocre esp at the price point. Fries are delicious, burgers are alright- they don't do any modifications, and charge for ketchup or any extra dipping sauces. The place is super fun and great place to hang out and eat on a sunny day or warm night. Location is great, about a 10min straight drive from the SeaTac airport and near the I-5 exit. Easy to find for first timers read more

Driving 99 on Sunday noon. Stopped by Dick's place to ordered a deluxe and a special with flies, added chocolate milkshake and vanilla milkshake for $20. It was a very quick service and easy. There is some deals if you're guaranteed student 2022. I saw that note for order counter windows but sorry, I didn't read it carefully. Anyway, Dick's burgers and milkshakes tasted nostalgic. I think it's good for everyone to eat hamburgers and milkshakes here once in a while to regain their nostalgic feelings. read more

The entire parking lot is full of drag racing kids with loud cars. I am unable to leave the place because they're everywhere. Somebody opened their car door and slammed it into the side of my car.

Rude customer service, would not recommend. Food is very underwhelming. You also can't take anything off or add onto burgers.

As a transplant who has been living in WA for 7 years now, I was told that I had to come to Dick's because it was a Washingtonian thing. It's unlike any place I've been--you place your order outside at one of the stations and the order gets turned around in minutes. The servers and cooks must work very hard! I have to say the service was cheerful and great. The burger and the milkshake... less great. If I want a good burger or a good milkshake, I'm probably going to go to Habit Burger or Katsu Burger. I do give points for nostalgia though... I can see how if people grew up eating these burgers, that would influence the taste. read more
