Classic Drive-in restaurant serving a variety of food including grilled burgers, fried fish/clams/shrimp, and many more American standards. There’s also an ice cream stand on site, and they do water skiing in the Mohawk River behind the restaurant on Tuesday Nights.

A rare drive-in in my area. Food is pretty basic but well executed. The jack burger is probably the most outstanding menu item. Kind of like a big Mac with the triple bun, double thin patty but topped with mustardy, creamy cole slaw. If you...Read More

This place was great! It’s not just about the food but it’s about the whole experience you get when here. Hope to be back one day! The Jackburger was excellent and I’m so happy I didn’t pass on the Fried Dough.

Great spot to hit during the summer months. I had the Jack Burger which is basically a double cheeseburger with coleslaw which was very good. The onion rings and fried dough are also great. I really enjoyed that they let you put the powered sugar...Read More

The drive in is a local institution with a great history. A hallmark of the speedy service is the shorthand the order takers use to get your order going, be sure to listen for it. The menu is certainly not loaded with healthy alternatives but...Read More
