    Drive-in, food delivered to your car. Tots were too salty to enjoy and that was disappointing. Otherwise food was good but pricey from past experiences. Perhaps deals offered on app but no specials offered otherwise. Great ice, grab a bag to go.

    The food at first was a bit cold but our carhop with the blue hair was nice enough to get us a new hot fry!

    Good shakes for a 5$ price. Can get them once in a while for a little reward.

    Food was fresh and very good. Service exceptional. Waitress checked on us because we weren’t leaving. Our battery was dead and we were 80 miles from home. She got the manager who drove his truck to us and jumped our battery. Couldn’t ask for better people.
