Here at The Smoke & Pickle, we believe life’s like a BBQ – and we like it hot and fast. We set fire to things and stick things in vinegar, creating smoky, tangy, mouth-watering bites.

What People Say

"Damn. That was legendary"

Reviewers consistently praise the burgers as some of the best they've ever had, highlighting the friendly service and great atmosphere.

"Honestly, I think THIS is the best burger in Queenstown, soo delicious! MY TIP: order a double burger minimum! Such an hidden gem, stunning view, it placed next to a nice brewery if you want a fresh beer next to your burger. 10/10 experience 🩷"

"I consider myself a burger aficionado. This was hands down the best burger of my life. I am in Queenstown for another 2 weeks and will make it my mission to eat here at least 2-3 more x. Damn. That was legendary"

"One of the best burgers I’ve ever had! We got the classic smash burger and the philly cheesesteak hoagie and both were exceptional! If you’re in Queenstown you have to try Smoke and Pickle."
