The staff here always super nice they bring my food to my table. The food is amazing! This isn't any ordinary chicken. The Mac n cheese and waffle fries are my favorite. I don't like barbecue sauce but Dickey's sweet sauce I love. They nailed it with this barbecue. The smoky smell of the smoker is great! They have flat screens playing sports games and FREE ICE CREAM. Also great daily deals. #hooked read more

Fried onion tangles? More like burnt onion pieces. Should have checked them before I got them home. Sad. Also, was surprised by the sudden change in the Happy Hour rules. No more $2 pulled pork sandwiches and $1 sides. Sadder. read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Barbeque Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

I have ordered a lot from this place and usually have been very happy with them but the last two times I ordered from them they gave me the fattiest cuts of brisket. Very disappointed. Not sure if I will be ordering from them again anytime soon. read more

This is the first Dickey's I've ever been to. I decided to give it a try since I'm on a low-carb diet and figured the meat plates would be a good fit. (I was originally going to go to the Five Guys next door and at the last minute decided to try something new and give this a shot.) Right out of the gate I figured it would be a great spot because I was greeted right when I walked in the door and the two guys behind the counter were very helpful in narrowing down the best choices when I told them I'm low carb, so anything with bread or potatoes was out. They seemed very knowledgeable and friendly. The one guy made the brisket sound wonderful by talking about how long they smoke it, and he suggested I try a few of the meats since there wasn't much else I could get. So I went for the 3-meat plate with brisket, chicken breast and jalapeño cheddar kielbasa. He said those are probably his favorite things on the menu, so I figured I was good. The plate comes with a drink and two sides, so I just got a double Caesar salad, and they were kind enough to leave off the croutons and put the dressing on the side. Upon getting my plate, I was expecting strips of brisket, but it was kind of choppy. Maybe my idea of brisket is just off. But given how he talked it up, I thought it would still be good. Honestly, the kielbasa was the best thing on the plate; it is gold. I would get it again in a heartbeat. But the brisket and chicken didn't really have any flavor to them. They were both soft, but not really juicy. They have their barbecue sauces in a little bar area, so I grabbed their original and sweet. The original added some good flavor to the meats, but the sweet sauce just tasted overwhelmingly of syrup (like maple pancake syrup), so I didn't keep eating that. They also have a spicy sauce, but I didn't try it. Their soda machine was out of the syrup for Coke Zero when I went to fill up my cup, but one of the guys was super quick to fix it when I mentioned it. So that was nice. And for those who can have it, they have a soft serve machine where you can get as much vanilla soft serve as you want, so I'm sure that's a draw for families. But for the $15 I spent, I was not impressed, and I'm not sure I could justify going there again when pretty much all I can eat is the meat and I didn't feel like the meat was anything special. It was a nice change from a regular burger place, but I was underwhelmed and felt like I overpaid. If not for the bomb kielbasa and nice staff, the rating would be lower. read more

Management is great. Food is excellent. Small searching area but we always seem to find a seat. They have near to go as well. So much smokey goodness. read more

great food and service!! austin and Carl were very helpful and got us exactly what we wanted!

Stopped in for lunch to try a new BBQ place. I got the 2 meat plate with 2 sides and my wife got the 1 meat plate. Outside of the employee/manager having her face mask down while serving food they failed to get our order correct by missing one of my sides. Whatever, we can deal with missing waffle fries. Open our box to find brisket that is laden with fat and nearly inedible. Poor BBQ, poor service, and optional face masks left us feeling very displeased. My advice, go elsewhere. read more

Being a Texas boy, I've been to the other locations a number of time. This...felt like walking into an imitation. The set-up is closer to a subway than other's Dickie's locations I've been to. The food was sub-par all the way around. The meat was meh, the onion tangelers were charcoal and the green beans were bland. The staff seemed confused much of the time. I believe I underpaid for my meal, but they just went with it because I already paid and said I wanted two sides with my meal. The staff just expected I knew how their workflow worked without any real direction from them. That being said, they did seem friendly. I didn't get the sense that they don't care. Star for that. What a disappointment. I am completely confused about what Dickie's national brand approach is. You can have things like your yellow cups and soft serve, but if the food and the core experience are different it's not the same thing to me. And for god's sake, put on some country music. I'm not a huge fan of modern country, but playing generic pop in Dickie's is just "huh?" read more

I did not have particularly high expectations for BBQ from a large chain, but This place was impressively bad. I don't think I've had worse barbecue in my life, which is no small feat! For starters, absolutely nothing I ordered seemed particularly fresh, save for the roll and the pecan pie. The worst offenders were the waffle fries. Now, these are generally pretty hard to screw up, but Dickey's managed. They were practically unseasoned, rather limp, and tasted like they had both sat in a freezer for a while and languished under a heat lamp. Next up, we have the "BBQ" beans. They might as well have come out of a can. They were too sweet, too small, and basically mush. Also, there was no meat in them. Literally every other BBQ joint I have ever been to put scraps of meat in their beans. They provide flavor and texture that were sorely lacking from what I suspect may have come from a can of Bush's. Speaking of meats, hoo boy. I ordered both a three meat plate (chopped brisket, pulled pork, and polish kielbasa) and a half dozen of their "famous" smoked wings. Right of the gates, I noticed that the portions were quite small. This was a small mercy. The brisket was garbage. It was fatty, stringy, and utterly flavorless. The pulled pork was the same way. Neither one had any sort of smoke ring. Now, while that's mostly an aesthetic matter, its absence makes me question the competence of the "pit master." That's in quotes because I'm mot unconvinced that these meats weren't thrown into a crockpot with some liquid smoke. The kielbasa was not nearly as bad, but it too lacked flavor and seemed to be the product of artificial smoke. I'm also curious as to why Dickey's does not do hot links instead. Finally, there was a small light at the end of the tunnel in the shape of a slice of pecan pie. The filling was smooth and heavy on caramel notes, balanced out by a slightly savory crust and pecans on top that were toasted just right. I'm not sure how they managed not to f*ck up the pie like everything else, but I'm glad that they didn't. At $2 for a decent sized slice, it's a steal That is the only reason they didn't get a one star review. TL;DR: save your money. The food sucks, and costs too much for what it is. read more

Last minute called to see if there was a waite like everywhere else these days. Surprisingly there was immediate seating. This made the wife skeptical but we went anyway and had delicious BBQ dinners. Her last words were "I would definitely eat here again ". Shortly after we arrived the place got super busy. This was Sunday evening around 7:30 or so. read more

Food was better than I expected.... the highlight is the free soft serve ice cream! Order a fountain drink and you'll get a yellow dickie cup, first fill with soft serve then top it with the fountain root beer. I wish this was around when my kids were little. A great treat on a hot summer day. read more

The service of the gal behind the counter was excellent, she explained the menu and was super friendly, she did her job well. For her customer service I'd give that 5 stars. However, the food quality was among the worst I've ever experienced and that is what I'm basing the 1 star review on. I was unable to eat the gummy, yet grainy Mac & Cheese. The green beans were completely watery and smooshy. The pulled pork was around 50% fatty cut, deriving very little meat, and the roll that came with the meal was a steamed gummy mess. For the price, I'd expect some level of food quality, but it was just missing from this establishment. read more

Good lunch spot. They recommended the Mac brisket stack. Price is a too high for both quality and definitely quantity, but it was definitely delicious read more

Dickey's is a little spendy but I've never had complaints. Good food, great service, atmosphere is open and family friendly. I decided to get delivery since I wanted to watch the Master's. I got the family pack and was sad I couldn't get 1/2 lb of two different meats like I would in the restaurant. On top of that I ordered sliced brisket. The pictures tell the rest of tale. Extremely disappointed and will not order delivery again. Too much money spent for a wrong order. read more

We went in for a late lunch. Ordered two meats with two sides at the counter. Meats were spicy sausage and smoked brisket. First team member carves and lays out on paper. Next server asks me for sides choice. I inquire about cole slaw and the reply is "don't know, never tried the slaw". Crap, WTH are you doing serving if you know nothing about the product? Order slaw and potato salad. This with small drink comes for about 14.00. Brisket has zero bark and very little smoke. Sausage is very good, moist and tasty with spicy sauce. Sides are just OK but I ordered what might be considered their worst sides. People love this BBQ but I have had better. It does well and I feel I should give them another try before writing them off. For now my review is 3 1/2 stars. read more

I'm so pissed. I usually like the food here, but they need to fix their family pack. Last night, I was debating between ordering 4 combos or 1 family pack. The guy convinced me that the family pack is a better deal because you get more food for the same price. I beg to differ. This family pack is advertised as it would feed for 4-6 people. When I got home, it ended up barely feeding 4 people. The sides fed only two people. How is 6 waffle fries supposed to feed 6 people? The meat was barely enough for 3 people. I paid $50 for $20 worth of food. I would have got more food if I ordered 4 separate combos. I knew it was too good to be true. I'm going to demand my money back or two complimentary meals. read more

This is my favorite bbq joint. I always get the 2 meat plate with brisket and spicy cheddar sausage. The potatoes casserole is out of this world! Came in tonight because my wife was craving the pulled pork and they accidently sent us home with the sausage instead. The manager was on top of it and got us our original order and let us keep the mistake. Great customer service! I'll definitely continue to keep coming back. read more

I was excited to hear that Dickey's had opened up in Beaverton, so I made a trip across town on my first day off so I could check them out. Let me get straight to things: Pulled pork - it was okay, nothing special Brisket - I asked for sliced, got shredded, and was not impressed with flavor Ribs - overcooked, cold, clearly from a day or two ago. BBQ Beans - Best part of the plate Mac n Cheese - pasta was so cooked it was mushy, overall flavorless Roll - over proofed and did not arrive until I was done Sauces are kept hot, while they tasted ok, they were like the pork, nothing special. Everything is kept wrapped in plastic and in a steam cabinet, and there was not a hint of smoke in the air. Overall, I was not impressed, and this was even after I took into consideration it is a chain BBQ place. There are FAR better BBQ places in town. read more

The food here is good. The service is good. The place is clean and nice. It's a good value. So why only three stars? First, the music. If you like bad covers of old country music, this is your place. Otherwise, bring hearing protection. Second, the use of disposible plastic cups for soft drinks. I am an Oregonian and I don't want to landfill a plastic cup each time I have lunch. I wish they would use non-disposable cups or biodegradable paper cups instead. read more

I'd give Dickies 3 1/2 if I could. As it is it drops because of inconsistency. On the good side: Free ice cream Pellet ice Onion "tanglers" Nice sauce Good potato Casserole Brisket is usually top notch Close to my home On the down side: Small dinning area Often too busy for the space Sometimes a mess Pulled pork is meh Ribs overcooked Prices are not up to the value INCONSISTENCY Honestly, we go there because its the only BBQ in the area and we can't always drive to north Portland every time I have a hankerin' for some smoked meat. read more

Understand something. I've spent time in Texas. I own a *real* barbecue (no; that's *not* a grill). I know what real barbecue should look and taste like. This is it. Dickey's, for the uninitiated, is an institution in the Dallas area. They've been around nigh on unto forever (or 1941, if you want an exact date). The original fact about Dickey's is the meat. And, predictably, that's the case with their first Oregon location. Understand something else - real barbecue isn't served up in restaurants. A real barbecue establishment is called a 'joint', and with good reason - the emphasis is on the meat, and little else. Dickey's does their own barbecue on-site - so the bowling-alley shaped strip-mall hole-in-the-wall here at the intersection of Murray and Scholls has few tables; isn't really set up for large groups, and has no waitstaff. You place your order at the counter (you're expected to know what you want; if you don't, the staff is trained well enough to give you a spot-education); it'll come to you on a tray lined with butcher paper. It's said that there are two kinds of people who understand beef brisket - Jewish folk from New York, and Texans. These folks understand brisket - you can order a half-pound to go from the lean end, and they know what you mean - which trumps every other 'cue-establishment I've frequented in these parts. Try the brisket. You won't go wrong. That said, understand that both the coleslaw (which is creamy enough) is pretty bland; the potato salad even more so. They don't have salt and pepper shakers on the tables (a serious oversight, IMHO), so be prepared to open a lot of those irritating little paper-packets. I didn't try the beans, but if they're the same recipe as in Dallas, they're good. They have three types of sauce at the bar in the back (plus pickles and onions), and free soft-serve ice-cream after your meal (if you want it). Minor quibbles: The floor is greasy - a wash after-hours with vinegar water and some due-diligence should correct this problem. (I know; it's hard to keep a place like this clean with ambient vaporized grease from the smoker a more-or-less constant fact.) Also, the place is *hot*. That's probably not a problem during winter and spring - but this summer, I'm going to imagine the majority of their product will be consumed at home, unless they're going to be liberal with a *very* high-volume A/C system. In all, they didn't disappoint, even if the location was modest (I imagine corporate is really just dipping its toe in the water this far north and west). By all means; go. Order a pound of brisket; take it home, and revel in the fact that there's finally a place on the west side that serves something with a real smoke-line.... read more

I have been to this Dickey's BBQ a few times. The staff is friendly. They have a good selection of BBQ sauce and all of them are tasty. I like their sausage. This is the only place in Oregon that I have found fried okra. I used to live in the south and have really missed fried okra since moving to Oregon. If you're in the mood for some good BBQ, stop by and give them a chance. read more

Decent BBQ at decent prices. Flavorwise, it's on par with Buster's or Famous Dave's (although I prefer Dickey's BBQ sauce over the other two) so nothing earth shattering but pretty decent. We got a full rack of ribs, some brisket and their Big BBQ sandwich with sides. Normally, this would warrant only 3 stars but their fried okras, which I find hard to locate in Portland were delish! Seasoned just right so that it didn't need any additional sauce with crispy exterior that wasn't overly greasy. Man, I could eat these all day! Pretty large portion sizes for the fried sides. Also, they have a soft serve machine where you can eat as much vanilla ice cream as you want. We all had two cones each. YUM! And we went on a Sunday, which is "kids eat free" day (one kids meal per adult meal ordered. The kids menu consists of either chix nuggets, meat plate or a sandwich plate, which includes one side and a soft drink. Service was prompt and friendly and they were patient enough to answer all our questions and wait when we were "hemming and hawwing" over our menu choices. Overall, a very satisfactory experience and I highly recommend to those folks with small children. read more

I love BBQ and I was really excited that this place was opening near my house. We decided to try it last night and I really wanted to love it but it was disappointing. First, the place is very small, 6 tables? You walk in and order your meat with one person, sides with another then pay with someone else, like you're in school in the cafeteria line. The guy that greeted us was very polite, gave us a sample of the brisket, pretty dry. I ordered the special of the pulled pork sandwich with two sides and a drink for 8.99. They were out of the pulled pork so he offered to do the brisket instead, fine; thankfully it came with BBQ sauce. I went to order my sides and they were out of everything I wanted, mac and cheese, coleslaw, wasn't very happy since it was busy and was dinner time, they should be better prepared. They were also out of sweet tea, she said it was sweet tea but it tasted like plain tea to me, offered to make some fresh but was going to be another 10 mins. Food was okay, fries weren't anything special, sandwich was boring and dry but the beans were actually pretty good. Overall wasn't great, will try it again to see if things improve, but was pretty disappointed. read more

The food is great and the service was excellent. The deal of the day makes it a reasonable price and the cups are awesome! I do wish they had cornbread though. read more

If I could give less stars I would. The rolls were the best part of our order and those were almost completely cooked all the way through. $3 each for 4 bites of potato salad and mac n cheese both taste like they were straight from the closest grocery store brand. We bought 2 twelve packs of ribs and both had the taste and feel of eating jerky. I stopped eating after a rib with a crunch. The experience is so bad I created this account to share. read more

Not a huge place. Kinda like the size of a subway. Great service with a smile and conversation! The food was great! They have many options and lunch specials. Their brisket sandwich was amazing. It is right down the st from where I work and I look forward to eating there often. The location is very clean and tidy. They have fountain drinks and the pricing is very reasonable for the food being so delicious. 3 of us went there to eat lunch for about $22. There are lots of side options. Macaroni and cheese, waffle fries, several kinds of potatoes, some vegetables. The place is a little busy at lunch because it is obviously becoming more popular and is in a busy business area so plan accordingly. The service is fast enough to keep up with the crowd though. I cannot wait to go again! read more

Been coming here to this location for over a year now!!Food is always HOT,TENDER,and JUICY!!I highly recommend the 3 Meat Plate!!More than full everytime and satisfying!!keep it up guys!!The bbq sauces here ROCK to!! read more

I got the 3 meat combo. Chicken breast was good. Sliced AND chopped brisket both well over half globs of fats. Not much meat for the $$$.

We never knew this existed and have been there a few times now. Friendly staff and fast service. All the meat options are excellent. The best part is a free soft serve ice cream after your meal...a definite hit with the kids! Great addition to the community. The only challenge is they have minimal seating. A larger location would be great. read more

Dickey's is a chain with a fairly small seating area. It's sort of like a scaled-down Busters with some upscale sides. You can get your order to go, which is a great feature. I Had a "Lil' Hoagie" with brisket, some potato salad, sweet tea, and some of their free ice cream. Three kinds of sauce: I think I got the Spicy, they didn't ask, but all three are available at the condiment/beverage/silverware area. The sauce was good, as was the brisket which you can get chopped or sliced. They put a couple pickles and two pieces of onion on the sandwich, which were also good. The potato salad was nicely creamy with a lot of dill - above average. The tea appears to be fresh-brewed. It was OK. Ice cream was good vanilla soft-serve. read more

Dickey's BBQ is "ok". I've been here a few times now (hoping to not judge it based on one experience or even two). Unfortunately there are not a lot of BBQ options on this side of Portland - especially in Beaverton/Hillsboro. To start off - I do a LOT of BBQ at home in the spring/summer - and do a lot of smoking of my own meats. I lived in Texas as well as Georgia for quite a few years - so when it comes to BBQ I've had some of the best out there. In addition...living in Oregon I would not expect the BBQ to be on the same level as the BBQ belt of our nation - which is why they get 3 stars instead of 2. Simply to start off - if you have fried okra and mac-n-cheese on the menu - there's not a single BBQ place in the south that would stay open without hot sauce anywhere to be found. Texas Pete's, Tabasco, Louisiana Hot Sauce....something. When it comes to fried okra - one of my all time favorite southern treats! Very few places in the NW serve it...so thank you for having it on your menu. On the same token, it's pretty obvious it's low grade pre-frozen (which is still better than nothing - but it's less expensive to have a dredge/batter there in the restaurant and make it to order. Better tasting, less expensive). The tiny rolls served - yeah...that's not BBQ. For the same price (or close to) there are a LOT of bakeries in the area where loaves of Texas Toast could easily be made available. Texas Toast is what needs to be served with BBQ - not tiny bland rolls. The meat - it's "ok" but definitely missing the significant smoke flavor found at the vast majority of BBQ joints coasts to coast. What I do like - The manager seems to be a great guy. I like the concept they use for the drinks. The sauces are above average and it's a nice perk with the free ice cream for customers. I also like the amount of options on the menu and the number of sides available. Dickey's will do in a pinch when you're tired of the normal options of food out there. It's not bad - the prices are a bit high. And with a few tweaks on things it could be a 4 star BBQ place. One of the easiest would simply be for the owner to get some hot sauce available. It's not a significant expense.....and when it comes to BBQ places coast to coast - it's an expectation (especially when you serve the sides that are on the menu). read more

We ordered through door dash - delivery. A Pound of pulled pork and a pound of turkey. I called directly - asking to have them bring both spicy and regular sauces. The man said yes, and he'd make sure we got it. So, the driver delivered. We had one small container of BBQ sauce -- tiny container -- 4 tablespoons. ! Not even enough for one portion of the meat. So, I called. The man apologized. I said since we're having the driest BBQ ever- would he give us a coupon for something off of our next order. He said NO, I CAN'T DO THAT. Wow. That's horrible customer service. I said I'd have to give a bad YELP review. - No attempt to resolve my issue, so here's my review. The only reason I gave them 2 stars is because the food is really good. But - they've lost a customer now. read more

We recently went with the grandkids to this location. We entered the store and there were three people behind the counter. We stood there for ten minutes and no one even acknowledged us. So we went next door to Five Guys. read more

I was so excited to see a Dickeys had opened up in the Portland metro area! I'm from Texas and used to eat at Dickeys there all the time, it was and is a favorite. It is truly the best BBQ I've had in a while. Real brisket not some kind of roast beef fake stuff and the sauces are the best I've had since leaving Texas. Is as close to what I grew up with as you can find in the NW. I'm looking forward to many more meals here! Kids eat free on Sunday and free ice cream everyday make a fantastic meal even better! read more

Dickey's Barbecue Pit - Brisket sandwich with BBQ beans...amazing! - Barbeque Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

I've been coming to Dickey's at this location since it opened. I have to get my bbq fix at least once or twice per month. The food is great for this area, and have no complaints. However, the service is horrendous. It used to not be that way. There is one person in particular I've had about enough of, and it is the middle-aged bald guy that cuts your meat. Negative attitude, short with customers, and generally angry to be even working a job he chose to apply for. I've worked customer service for years, and for him to be the very first person to greet you and take your order, it is not welcoming at all. In fact, I even watched an elderly couple in front of me have to experience his extreme distaste for his job, even after they told him it was their first time there. At this same visit, I also watched him belittle the younger employees in front of a full line of cuatomers. To be honest, I have reservations going back to support this type of emplyment. If you want a cl great experience for cuatomers, like it used to be, this guy should not be a part of the franchise in my opinion. Seek someone less self serving, and complaintive, and find someone with customer service on their mind. Otherwise, I'd see others turning away as well, or causing a scene due to his attitude. read more

This place is A-Ok but I'm also a fan. The best things about this place is that the prices AND portions are reasonable. When it seems like you cannot get a meal for under $10 with any options these days, Dickey's offers up a good meal at a reasonable price. Brisket Sandwich: Hearty helping of bbq meat! Wow! The bun was fresh and the sauce was good. My only complaint here was that the meat was a *little* dry, easily rectified by adding a little extra bbq sauce. Sides 1 - beans: Great baked beans! Spicy, but not too spicy, and not too watery. Side 2 - fries: Waffle cut fries perfectly salted, definitely a fan of these. A small-ish serving, but you really don't need too many with how big the sandwich is. Side 3 - mac n cheese: This marked the place down a little bit for me, it might just be that the overly cheese mac n cheese is not my style, but it was blah and needed salt and pepper. Side 4 - coleslaw: standard coleslaw for the area, neither good nor bad but a solid choice if you normally like to add slaw to your bbq sandwich. Next time I would skip the Mac n' cheese and stick with the beans and fries! Notes: quick service, big drinks in reusable plastic cups, an alternative to your standard hamburger joint, accessible, okay-ish parking. read more

I was a vegitarian at one point in my life. Well, its places like this that i cant keep being a vegitarian. Had tried each of their sliders, and wow the meat they use, and how the cook it was unbelievable, melt in your mouth good. The kelbasa, and pulled pork...WOW. my go to BBQ spot. Loved the armosphere, and the staff were awesome. The main BBQer really loved what he does. read more

I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but I had such another positive experience with Dickey's that I felt the need to do it. I also see it as a good way to send out positive vibes to the people who are there, working hard as always to put out a good product. My order was completed on time and was waiting for me as I entered the door (Surprisingly, on time because I had expected to get there late!). As usual, I was greeted with a smile and a hello. I don't usually give out tips, but in this case, I made an exception because again, the service was top notch and this is unique in comparison to many, local restaurants (i.e. Shack Shake) I've been to recently. We ordered the ribs, pulled pork and a kids meal with chicken nuggets. Everything was excellent! I wasn't able to BBQ for the 4th this year, so you guys really helped me out. Thanks again and keep up the great work!! read more
