Slim’s Slack Creek
– Drive Thru
Building on the success of the first drive-thru, this second location brings the brand’s American diner-inspired concept to a busier, high-growth precinct—part of a new development set to revitalise the surrounding area.
From the outside, the striking blue exterior delivers instant recognition and strong street presence. Inside, the palette evolves with a bold yet refined mix of deep blues and American oak timber, blending nostalgia with warmth and modern appeal.
At the core of the fitout is a custom stainless steel kitchen line, tailored for speed and efficiency, with every bench and surface designed to flow around high-performance equipment—ideal for the demands of a busy drive-thru.
