Pattysmiths Dickson

Pattysmiths Dickson is a burger-focused restaurant built around smash-style beef patties, with the patties cooked fresh on the grill to develop a crisp, golden exterior while staying tender inside. The menu centres on Wagyu and Angus beef burgers, with each one served on a buttered and toasted milk bun. There are also crispy-coated and grilled chicken burgers, chips, fried pickles, onion rings, loaded chips, shakes and sweet options, making it suitable for a quick solo meal or a casual feed with family and friends.

The burger range includes straightforward choices such as the Simply Smith, made with beef, pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayo, through to more substantial combinations. The Big Smith adds double beef, double cheese, bacon, lettuce, gherkin relish, barbecue sauce and smoky mayo, while the Spicy Stack brings together double beef, cheese, maple bacon, jalapeños, onions and a spicy sauce. Chicken options include the Classic Chicken, Cheesy Chicken and Smokin’ Chicken, with different combinations of pickles, mayo, cheese, slaw, chipotle and barbecue sauce.

Pickles are a particularly strong part of the Pattysmiths identity. The brand says it works with Australian supplier Dillicious and has even created a Pickle Club, with the pickles used to add crunch and acidity to its burgers. Other house details include toasted, buttered buns, house-recipe sauces, locally farmed fresh produce and hot chips served by the scoop. For something sweet, the menu lists soft-serve sundaes, cinnamon-sugar churros with chocolate hazelnut dipping sauce, and thickshakes made with real ice-cream in Nutella, Biscoff and peanut butter flavours.

Pattysmiths says the business began in 2018 when a group of mates set out to revive the simple local-diner burger through the smash technique. That background helps explain the focus on fresh preparation, toasted buns and careful assembly rather than a broad restaurant menu. In Dickson, it is a practical choice for burger fans who want a filling casual meal, with enough variety for mixed groups and add-ons for those looking to make their order more substantial.
