"Pick Quick's soft serve is creamy, not too sweet, and cement-thick. That’s totally a good thing—it stands up to chocolate dips, warm caramel, and/or a cup of fizzy root beer. This stuff is an ideal third wheel to a double cheeseburger and hand-cut fries, and more importantly, will not melt too much while you eat those other things." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"This old-school fast food joint in SoDo nails no-frills burgers, whether the basic with just a patty, ketchup, mustard, and pickles, or the deluxe with American cheese, onion, iceberg lettuce and fat slices of tomato. There are also over a dozen milkshake and malt flavors to choose from, including an enticing Almond Roca variety, and perfectly swirled soft-serve cones." - Joey Carreon
"This roadside favorite, founded in Fife in 1949, expanded to Auburn before opening a branch in SoDo in recent years. It’s a slice of Americana, once chosen as best burger joint in Washington state by USA Today for its crisply charred burgers and hand-cut French fries. As a bonus, Pick-Quick has a wide selection of shakes blended to order, including ones with fresh, in-season berries. As the name indicates, you can place and receive your order from the comfort of your car. Best for: Affordable takeout meals for the family." - Jay Friedman
"If you’re looking for a drive-thru window, go to Pick Quick for lunch. It’s an old-school, fast-food spot with burgers, fries, and ice cream cones that are better than the ones at Dick’s. You could also pay for the whole meal with the rumpled singles you found in your pants pockets while doing laundry." - aimee rizzo
"If you just want a burger, fries, and shake without thinking too hard about it, Pick Quick in Sodo is always the answer. Maybe their name’s subliminal messaging has something to do with it. Expect a nicely sizzled patty, really tasty soft serve root beer floats, and hand-cut fries that remind us of the ones from In-N-Out—only not so polarizing." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
