who we are

Here at The Smoke & Pickle, we believe life’s like a BBQ – and we like it hot and fast. 🔥
We set fire to things. We stick things in vinegar. It’s hard work, but worth every smoky, tangy, mouth-watering bite. Once you’ve wrestled one of our creations into your mouth, you’ll know exactly what we mean.

We don’t play by the old school rules – we reinvent them, one delicious bite at a time. Because in life, who really wants to go low and slow?

This place is amazing. We went back twice because it was so good. Tried just about the whole menu and all of it was epic. The chicken burger was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Definitely recommend

Gordon Ramsey would approve! Top knotch triple smash burger, loaded fries, chicken tenders and ribs all top quality and taste amazing! Pair with a tasting paddle from Altitude brew house and it is the bomb! Highly recommend!!!

10/10, no notes. But if I were to write notes…absolutely delicious burgers & chicken tenders. Service is lovely too. This is a must try for anyone visiting Queenstown. Nice ambience too (we visited when they were at the brewery).

Definitely the best burger in Queenstown!! Being a vegetarian we’ve had two of their burgers in both their locations and both were mind blowing. The chips are extremely flavorful with their seasoning on top.

our food

Our street-food style menu changes with the seasons, always packed with flavour, smoke, and a twist of pickle. Some dishes whisper, others shout – but all of them hit the spot.

Vegetarian and gluten-friendly options are always available on request.

Keep an eye out for our one-off specials – we love to surprise you.

Every dish we create is a perfect balance of fire-kissed food and the sweet-sour magic of our secret pickling recipes.
