Stopped here on a road trip, great food!! Very friendly, asked about fried mushrooms as a substitute and they said that we couldn’t do that because it was a side item or something… and to our surprise they gave them to us anyways!!!! We joked and had a great time in the drive thru!! Thank you!!! Mushroom and Swiss with gravy was excellent

We just got To Go food but as a first timer, I was impressed. A reasonably priced fast food joint with an old school feel to it. No frills, just good food.
Recommend: Scotty’s burger (the sauce is awesome) and Santa Fe Chicken sandwich

Some of the best knöpfle soup I’ve ever had! And The Rebel Burger is huge and delicious. Neat little paper car with the kids meals too!

No ketchup for take out orders is a weird policy.

Went there a few days ago. The food was amazing especially for the price. The staff was highly friendly! I love burgers and typically I'm picky were I go eat, but this has to be the top second burger I've had in Bismarck/Mandan!
