We've picked up "dash" orders from there numerous times. Today 6/19/2025, we decided to try something from there. My daughter ordered the Mac Daddy cheeseburger that came with bacon & mac & cheese bites ON the burger. She loved it! She also got some waffle fries. I got an order of onion rings & a root beer float. The O.R. were crispy!👍🏾👍🏾 My daughter's waffle fries were crispy! 👍🏾👍🏾 The float was delicious. Our order taker was very polite. He brought our order quickly. The only downside was a few of my onion rings were over cooked. But I made due even though the onion inside tasted different because of how overcooked it was on the outside. Even with that we would still come back for a visit!

Be careful when biting into your food, I ordered this in September 26 it was online order and just wanted to share this because I found a long piece of hair in my food. My fiancé did contact the store. They said the manager will talk to us, but haven’t at all

Stopped by today for lunch for the first time. We love Root Beer stands and this one is no exception. Pull in style restaurant with a family feel and great service. Went with the chili dog, Middie, and the Mac daddy. The peanut butter on the Middie was certainly an interesting twist and the Mac daddy was spectacular. Chili dog was messy in a good way, and the root beer was top notch. Definitely go check them out this summer!

This is the 3rd time we have received fries and they look like they been cooked in week old oil... They taste very greasy.. Also the Burger meats patties are about paper thin now and there is not much to it anymore for the price.. service is still good.. but food quality and quantity is well below average..please make improvements. Food is priced above average for what we are getting.. Soybean oil tarter sauce now tastes like your eating seed oils right out of the jar..

LarderRoom...The Jug! Celebrating 90 Years! Look, if you been serving burgers, ice cream & root beer for 90 years you got my attention. Just stay in your car and a hop will be with you promptly. Classic paper menus outline your options of smash burgers, chili dogs, root beers and floats! I even tried a (fried) chicken sandwich! Order it all! Everything is hot and greasy, but it a GOOD WAY. Exactly the way you want your burger. Remember to tip. Your servers will appreciate you for it!
