Rocket Drive In

Food is that old school burger joint style, and they pull it off visually and tastefully. The service was fantastic, as were the other customers in line. It’s styled like an old drive thru too and fits the look perfectly. Really can’t praise this place higher, I stopped here on my way traveling and I am SO GLAD that I did!

I was on a business trip to Jennings a few weeks ago and I kept hearing about Rocket Drive In throughout the day. I was determined to find out just how good it was. Once the workday was done, I raced (responsibly drove) to the spot with my team and ordered their jalapeño sourdough. 🤤 It's not on the menu, but iykyk. Paired that up with a hot fudge sundae that had me dancing in my car on the drive back to NOLA. Anytime I enter Jennings, I'll be checking the Rocket.

During our travels we always enjoy the small mom and pop eateries. This one was a good place to stop.

Everything on the menu that I've had or tasted is great. My family always orders different things so we can share. I don't live in the area but nearly everytime I pass on the interstate I call my wife and my mom to take orders. But its best when we can all eat there. Blue Bell ice cream shakes are superb. Staff has always been friendly and patient as well. The best is when we visit my Father at Veterans cemetery and eat otw back home. Great food, great people. Burgers are great, crab balls are a family favorite, wife loves the shrimp burger with onion rings. I could go on and on. You won't be disappointed.

Think of this as a concession stand of restaurants. Have thoroughly tried their food (meaning the whole menu)and witnessed their service. The food is just like going to a high school football game and the service is slow just like the same experience. There is a place right beside it called hobos diner. That cook deserved a michilen star. The only downfall of that place is it closes at 130. But trust me if you catch it open it's worth every penny. But I'm a contractor who works out of town and good food at local places is what I look for. Last money I spend here might as well eat fast food. Its better quality than this place. Average is a good description.
