Making your day since 1953

We’ve been proudly rooted in the North East since 1953 — crafting delicious, quality food from our purpose-built home. Every Dicksons recipe carries a little of what makes us special: care, curiosity, and a love for what we do.

From a family start to over 30 shops and counting, we’ve grown alongside our communities — becoming the region’s largest family-run maker of meat and food products.

Our secret? Great ingredients, hearty recipes, and a big helping of local pride. It’s food made with care, for people who matter.

From our flaky, hand-rolled pastry to our flavour-packed sausages, everything we make carries that signature Dicksons care. Our bakers are up early every day, rolling out fresh pastry using a recipe that’s been part of our family for nearly 70 years.

We only use select cuts of meat — hand-picked by our butchery team — for our pies, sausages and fillings. And our sandwich favourites? They’re made with just the right blend of seasonings, picked by our team, and packed full of flavour.

Every bite reflects the pride we take in doing things right — no fuss, just real food that tastes as good as it should.
