MayskieJanuary 2, 2015HUGE selection of milkshakes - get an exotic, they have "yogurt" option available. Fries are nice and freshly made. Chicken nuggets are real freshly breaded (on-site) white meat. Chili is good too!
ayeen c.March 31, 2014very good old fashioned milkshake (chocolate is good!)... the chicken caesar cheese steak is good and te spicy fries. are good too!
Frank KuepperMarch 15, 2017Genuinely, one of my favorite places to be. Aside from the excellent service and great 50's decor, those award-winning shakes and insanely good Bacon Cheeseburgers have had me coming back for years!
El PresidentteApril 25, 2016My sweetheart surprised me with a visit here, and I loved it!!! CraZZZYYYYYYYY smothered fries @ this joint...Also their chili cheese dogg must hav beamed down st8 from hot dogg heaven to my plate😋
Amanda KemmererSeptember 1, 2017Best burgers and milkshakes. Period. We're moving next week and had to make one last stop.
Jason CentenoApril 21, 2012I don't know how actually healthy it is, but I do like me some of that there Buffalo Chicken Salad they have. And of course the milkshakes. Makes for a vicious combo later on at night though ;-p
Patrick PeniroFebruary 23, 2014Nice lil '50's diner, with the world's largest soda fountain, over 100 combinations, all with free refills, and exotic milkshakes... Great atmosphere
Emil GruberJuly 15, 2011Recipe for a perfect meal: get the most ridiculous fountain soda you can think of, onion rings and smothered fries for the table, and a Texas Tommy. Finish with a milkshake. Guaranteed good time.
Angela VargheseMay 21, 2014Great milkshakes! Try the Oreo Cheesecake & Tiramisu milkshakes. But, the burger & fries I got from here were a bit too salty. Not bad though.
Samuel SantiagoOctober 25, 2016The milkshakes here are to die for. They're HUGE and they have just about any flavor you can imagine.
BITTERHEARTLESS HELLOKITTYMarch 24, 2013The double royal burger with extra mushrooms is the best.... my favorite...
The TravelerFebruary 22, 2016Chicken Cheesesteak was good. Milkshakes are killer. Can get crowded on the weekends. Good deals on kids meals.
- Bern RossDecember 12, 2019First time I had breakfast here..it was really good. I forgot to take pictures because I started eating the food. Lol.
Milkshakes ❤️ Feel free to sleep in a little, breakfast is served till noon everyday! 🍳🥓🥞
LakeshaFebruary 3, 2012Try the banana fudge dream with extra fresh bananas and chocolate ice cream instead of the traditional vanilla!
Love the burgers and cheese fries. Specialty shakes and sodas are good too!
Michelle JulianoDecember 18, 2015Never disappointed always great food....but the shakes are just awesome

Heather ConwaySeptember 2, 2013Usually a fav. Our server Joe was very slow. Forgot about us from the beginning. Sodas were flat and my husband's food was cold. Milkshakes at dairy queen. We didn't have another two hours.
Charles DiCesariDecember 23, 2011Ask for Kevin. He was quite possibly the best waiter I every had. :-)
Milkshakes! Million different kinds, even ones with tasteykakes
- Phillysdon04 DonJanuary 1, 2010This restaurant is known for their wide variety of different flavored sodas and it looks like a restaurant from the past.
Larry DavidsonMay 15, 2012Service last night was the worst it's ever been. Jazzy didn't offer us refills, or ice cream after our meal, just put our receipt on the table. I had to ask for a refill. Disappointing.
Kristen PettolaApril 9, 2010Try the Chunky Monkey shake... my favorite. Chocolate chips, nuts, and bananas.
Sinh TaylorMarch 20, 2010try th nuggets with cheese and bbq sauce. and one of their million or so milkshake/soda combos...
