PICK-QUICK Drive In

Burgers are excellent, fries were fresh, the chocolate milkshake was bomb and the service was well in place. Highly recommended.

Burger was cooked well but very small. Strawberry shake was good but expensive. Overall I would say it isn’t a good value.

Two stars might be a bit harsh but I was really underwhelmed.
Pluses, staff was nice and friendly, inside was clean. The shakes were really good.
Minuses, hamburgers are SMALL, if you are expecting gourmet burgers this is not the place and if you are hungry better order two doubles. The big deal breaker for me was the fries, they are flat you gross. I realize that taste is subjective but these were limp masses of greasy shoestring potatoes. Burgers besides being small were pretty much non-​descript, not bad, but not especially good either.

My daughter recently moved to Auburn and my wife and I were visiting. She saw this 1950s-​ish looking place and wanted to try it. While the building is new, it does have that 50s look to it. We parked in the lot and went inside the glass and metal room. It has simple tables and a few counter seats. There is a large ordering area with the simple menu displayed on a sign above the counter.
Basically, the offerings are hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, ice cream (cones, sundaes, milk shakes, malts, and floats). What is odd about the menu pricing is that the condiments on the hamburgers cost extra (tomato, onions, pickles, etc…) if you want them. For me that was OK since I did not want most of them.
My daughter ordered a Chocolate Malt and my wife had a custom milk shake (Green Crème De Menthe and San Francisco Mint). They both enjoyed their cold drinks (on a cold near freezing day — I don’t understand why people do that!).
They each had the deluxe burger ($ 3.49 without cheese, and $ 3.89 with cheese). Deluxe means that it includes lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and sauce. Adding delicious grilled onions adds $ 0.55 to the price.
I had the Original Hamburger ($ 1.89) that includes ketchup, mustard, and a pickle, the great grilled onions ($ 0.55), and a side order of Chili ($ 2.59 topped with cheese and onions). Dipping the hamburger in the chili made a great combination; otherwise the hamburger is small and ordinary.
After placing our order that totaled $ 24.78, Irena told us about a special offer. If we purchased a gift card for $ 25, not only would it pay for our meal now, but it would include a bonus $ 5 coupon. We decided to go for the deal since my daughter will return to this place in the future.
The staff is friendly and the service was quick.

Terrible customer service. Pulled in thinking it might be like Dicks and quick, I waited in the drive thru for 5 minutes before I ordered, no big deal. Then waited about 10+ minutes before I got my food (2 cars in front of me). Pulled out and realized, wrong food. Seriously?! Terrible. Never even apologized for the wait time. Not like Dicks at all. Won’t eat here again.

The wait time in the drive thru was terrible. I assumed you have to wait for fresh food but reached in for a fry and it was cold and greasy. I would not mind the wait time for hot food that was freshly made. Burger reminded me of Burger King at 3 times the price. Such a bummer!

I was craving and NEEDED a malt milkshake! Only a few places in the area have malt, so I stopped at Sub Zero knowing they have malt … They were so rude !! I left sub zero and Unilocaled where to find malt. Pick-​Quick popped up.
Kassidy was so nice ! And understood my obsession with malt and made me the best vanilla Carmel extra malt milkshake EVER !!! Didn’t try any of the food, but it was clean and the service was so good I’d come back just for that !! :) thank you kassidy !

Came for lunch and food was not so great. Whatsup with the large drink?! More like a small. And definitely not worth 15 $for two burgers.

Thinnest deluxe double burger ever and the chili fries are just straight up comical. I will never ever go back I feel like I wasted $ 15 dollars and wasted 30min in line. Do yourself a favor if your reading this and just go to Chicago Willys instead which was pretty good and ten times better bang for your buck trust me and it’s right by it.

Kassidy was our server and was genuinely friendly and efficient. Food was good! Had a fresh Blackberry milkshake and a classic cheeseburger with bacon. My daughter had a classic hotdog, fries, and an Oreo milkshake. Cool building, good food, friendly service. We will be back.

We have went here for well over 20 years (the pic quick in fife) and have never been disappointed they use very fresh ingredients and the burgers are made when you order them our grand daughter just loves their chili fries! If you want really fresh food and the time to wait as there are always lines because of the really great food, wait and enjoy!

The wait in the drive thru is atrocious. There is no way to exit for when you get tired of waiting like I am RIGHT NOW!!!
Food is usually just okay, I should have gone to McDonalds.
Been waiting 10 min still 3 car in front of me.
Get more staff please!!!
Im sure I will never return!
Okay, super thin burger, I really meant «SUPER» and $ 5 + for 2 micro burgers with zero taste. McDonalds does taste better.
Done, never again!

I really want to like this place but it’s hard because the food isn’t great. It’s OK but they nickel and dime you to death. I stopped at the one in fife a long time ago and that place was good. Something about this new place just doesn’t jibe. The building is beautiful and nice to sit in. The food lacks. The bun tasted like it has been sitting out for a while and got crumbly as I ate. The meat was good but the burger overall looked small and thrown together for what you pay. My wife and daughter decided they wanted shakes to go with their fries. I swear it took the kid three remakes to get them done as we sat there wondering if we would ever get shakes. When they did get them the cups had ice cream smeared all over them, since everything is kept behind the counter we had to go and ask them for napkins. I don’t think I’ll be back. If I’m in the area I’ll head over to Willy’s.

Although my experience was not good this last visit. Manager Christy following up more than made up for it. I’ll be back for the good food agin for another try.

I give them credit for working towards serving clean food. They aren’t fully there yet, specially compared to Dukes Chowder House in Kent.
They have great quality meat. It’s local, no growth hormones, and naturally raised. That’s really hard to find at any type of restaurants these days. They also claim to get all their produce from local farmers, I would hope it’s organic. That would earn them extra stars!
Fries are good. You can tell they are freshly cut and cooked. I think they are 10 times better than any other traditional fast food fries.
They have a lot of HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup) in many of their products. This is very disappointing!!! For claiming «PICK-​QUICK is committed to serving Honest-​to-​Goodness food» having HFCS in their food completely contradict there honest food statements. We have to order lettuce wraps instead of their buns because they have HFCS in them. Not to mention its in all their sodas. I wish they would provide drinks not sweetened with HFCS. I won’t even try their shakes in fear of the HFCS. So disappointing!
Definitely not quick. Make sure you have time to wait for your food. My family and I waited in the drive-​thru for 20 minutes. My kids got really restless.
Overall, I will go here if I’m craving a burger that is not laced with chemicals!

I’ve driven by both Quick Pick locations many many times and I’ve always told myself that I needed to try it one day. That day was finally today and for the lines that I see outside at the Fife location, I was sorely disappointed.
I could compare them to Dick’s in Seattle like other reviewers have done but that’s not fair to Dick’s. I think they try to be like most of the other local small chains like Frisko Freeze or Time Out Burger, or Herfy’s, or Frugals but they don’t really stand out.
They have a limited menu with your choice of a hamburger, cheeseburger or hot dog variation ranging from really plain to loaded. You can make your burger a double but ¼ pound is all they go. The ¹⁄₈^th pound patties are bland and tasteless but the deluxe burger comes with Quick Pick sauce. The menu reads that they sell french fry sauce for dipping but I’m pretty sure that the french fry sauce and the Quick Pick sauce are the same.
The fries themselves are exactly like those you get at Dick’s so if you like thin, hand cut fries with the skin still on the potato and fried without any prep until they are soggy, then you’ll love them. I however do not like fries that way. They do offer extra toppings for your burgers and dogs at additional charges that I felt were too high. I paid $ 1.09 for 1 slice of skimpy bacon.
I wasn’t around in the 50’s and 60’s so I don’t know if diners and malt shops charged for condiments or not but this place doesn’t even have ketchup available. I’m sure I could have asked and would have probably gotten handed a few packets but I’d rather not.
I’m very disappointed in this establishment. The building is cool, the atmosphere is fun and I had hoped that this would have been a place that I went and raved about to my family and friends. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a place I won’t return to much less recommend to anyone.
When it comes to burger joints these days, the bar has been set quite high by places like Fat Burger, Red Mill, 5 Guys, and even Dick’s so places like Quick Pick better step up their games or they will get left behind.

I wish i could give this place 0 stars. I thought i was gonna be just blown outta the water. I ordered something simple through the drive through since i decided togive this spot a chance abs switchfrom McDs. When i was going to take a bite, my patty was as thick as my fingernail. Seriously so disappointed. The dollar menu cheeseburger has a thicker patty. It tasted like nothing but grease. I couldn’t even finish it. The shitty burger was $ 4 so i definitely expected way better. I paid $ 18 for a burger, fries, and 2 shakes. The worst money ever. I pretty much threw my money away due to the fact i couldn’t eat the food. The fries tasted so overwhelmingly over seasoned and as if the oil was old. I could have gone to McDonald’s and paid half the price and gotten better food. The shake tasted ok but you can’t really go wrong with a shake. And as im finishing up this review, my stomach has began to hurt and i feel like I’m going to hurl this monstrosity of a so called burger. Ill never ever EVER go there again. EVER

Solid. Recommend double meat double cheese and bacon. Good shakes. Green business model. Cool industrial décor.

I hate to say it, but I’m a (borderline) convert to this place. I still think it’s just a more expensive verson of Dick’s with a slightly larger menu, but they have improved enough to get my business back. An original double cheese is now $ 3.39, but a double stack (same thing minus onions) from Wendy’s is $ 2, so it’s all relative I guess. They have really delicious ice cream which is FAR better than anywhere else-​DQ is a joke in comparison. I think my original assessment is still accurate, but I’ve come to realize that we’re living in an area that seems to force businesses to gouge people in order to survive-​basically everyone rips everyone else off because of the high living costs in King County.

Some times I do not feel like having a half pound cheeseburger. There are days where I simply want something fresh without being over the top. Days where I want beef, cheese, tomatoes, and pickles. No special sauces, eggs, or even avocados. Sadly, there are few places that serve quarter pound cheeseburgers that aren’t from a fast food establishment.
First thing to understand, though it says «Quick» in the title this place will never be as fast as McDonald’s or Wendy’s. That is because they are making your cheeseburger from scratch. You can go outside where they have picnic tables and watch them through the glass if you so desire. It isn’t the pink slimy meat. It isn’t precooked or flash fried. They take the meat and form the patties. Think of this more like Five Guys than McDonald’s.
The cheeseburgers are delightful in their simplicity. If you want more meat, you can order a double. They offer a nice selection of cheeseburgers and milkshakes. The employees behind the counter have always been very pleasant when I have visited, and they have never taken excessive time for what they are offering.
This location is in Auburn and is clean and well lit. There is plenty of parking. On sunny days there are picnic tables in a small grassy lot on the side of the restaurant. Surrounded by tall enough trees it made it feel a bit secluded in a very pleasant way. They have nothing to hide, and there are plenty of viewing opportunities to watch the employees hard at work.
When I want a simple, no fuss cheeseburger Pick-​Quick is a great stop.
