★★★★★ 5.0 Anthony LoFrisco Jr · Aug 2025

Old school burger joint with a great selection of burgers, dogs, fries, shakes, etc. Super friendly service and honest, delicious food prepared by the owner. My burger was perfectly cooked and the fries were hot and crispy. No seating indoors but there are about a dozen picnic tables outside - the place for a relaxing lunch on a nice day.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Drew Christiano · Aug 2025

We were staying nearby and decided to stop in for take out our first night. This place checks all the boxes for a roadside burger and dog stand, but we found the food fell just short of the legacy this establishment holds. The hot dogs and kielbasa sandwich were clear favorites, flavorful with a good snap with each bite, but the burger came out dry and felt a bit uninspired. Regardless, we all enjoyed our food and I'd certainly give them another try.

As I was travelling through the area and growing hangry, I was in the mood for a good Chilidog. It appears they use Hummel hotdogs. This place had delightful chilidogs, hamburgers/cheeseburgers, and lots of other great food options. Unfortunately, I dropped my dog before finishing it, but I was able to eat most of it and it was all I had hoped for. The staff here is friendly and kind. Getting in and out is fairly smooth and easy, although while I was inside, my wife happened to see some guys roll in on motorcycles and one of them dumped their bike on the gravel driveway. She did say he seemed to be o.k., although I figure he must have been embarrassed and who knows if the bike got damaged. If you're rolling in on two wheels, use caution and be safe. FYI, this place is cash only, which is f

Old school drive in, lots of options, quick service, only outdoor seating-was a beautiful day so that was alright, fair pricing, family friendly.

Brought my toddler, we got a kids grilled cheese, sweet potato fries and I got the kielbasa and kraut which came hamburger style, Cool atmosphere, laid back & old school. Perfect on a nice day, definitely grab a milk shake or soft serve and sit at a picnic bench one their grassy area outside and enjoy :)
