OK, so this isn't the healthiest place to go. Set that aside and enjoy the chocolate milk shake, the wonderfully greasy cheeseburger and french fries. What fun, just don't do it too often or you'll experience a clog in the arteries. :) More

One of the reasons I like going to Dicks is to watch the many many different kinds of people that congregate there. From business men to vagrants, everyone loves a quick, cheap burger. More

After hearing so much about Dick's Drive-in, I was anxious to try it. I found nothing exceptional about it. I don't know what the hype is all about. More

I love me some Dick's! Love the 'Special' burger, fries and tarter and the hand made shakes! Gotta have some often! Open very late for those munchies too. More

I have no idea what the appeal is of this place. I would rank this below even the humble and questionable McD's classic cheeseburger, and that is really bad. I guess it is the nostalgia that attracts patrons, but imho, the burger was lacking in all regards. More

One step above McDonald's with a very limited menu. Don't know why this is a Seattle landmark. Cheap burgers, pay extra for onions or anything else. Service is fast but know what you want befroe getting to the window. They don't suffer fools gladly. More
