Fountain Drive-In

I love this Place. I have coming here with my family for more than 20 years. The food is the best in the west and that ain’t no joke!!! I truly do love this family joint. The owners and staff are by far the best and they have been here forever that I can remember! So eat up and grab the best vanilla shake you will ever experience !!!

if u like a good burger try this place stop by occasionally on way to edmonds from methow valley nice people
donn. twisp wa

Good burger! Good fries! Loved the ranch sauce! Ill be back for the food! Should probably fix the step situation to the front door. As we were leaving my friend didn’t realize it was there and broke her ankle. No one came out to see if she was ok as she was on the ground in bad pain.

After our hike we wanted to fill out bellies so we hopped on Unilocal for something local and we found this place. It looks like an old school burger shack because, it is. So you can imagine EXACTLY what kind of food you’ll be getting. We were both satisfied with our burger meals and milkshakes. The burgers were an average size and the portion of fries was probably small for most fast food go-​ers but, that is okay with me.
First I should mention we hit the drive thru, there was only one car in front of us and they make your food *after* you order it (who doesn’t enjoy their food freshly made?) With that being said our 10 minute wait time was very reasonable. We paid a little less than $ 30 for two burgers, two fries and two milkshakes which is also reasonable. So I can’t understand the reviewers complaining about either thing, seeing how you go to any fast food joint and you pay around $ 10 – 15 a meal and wait anywhere from 5 – 15 minutes.

The Banana Split was delicious! And so are their milkshakes. Very well done. However that’s the only good thing I can say about the Fountain Drive in. The customer service was terrible! Me and my grandparents went here and waited for a good twenty or thirty minutes waiting for our burgers. When they finally came, I was disappointed. My «Deluxe» bacon cheeseburger didn’t have a lot of flavor to it, the bun was a bit greasy, and was on the expensive side. The fries were ok, but they put a lot of salt on them and I ordered some barbecue sauce to go with them. Overall, I feel that they serve great ice cream but everything else is below average.

After 54 years of cooking it’s time they invested in newer order system. Pulled in after 3 cars. Order box is so old they can’t understand your order if they even hear it! After several attempts of telling order I said I would order at the window. Guess what no one ever came to the window… Waited a few minutes then left to go to KFC! They also need to start using real strawberries in their shakes! Their saying is… «After you order than we cook it!» I guess the real meaning is if they hear your order they’ll cook it!

Ordered a chicken burger and fries, for 10 $ I thought I would get something great. Got a ½ cup or more of mayo, brown lettuce, cold processed chicken patty and fake cheese. Threw it in the garbage after two bites, wont go back.

This place is WAY over priced. I brought my family (2 adults 2 kids) for burgers, shakes and fries and spent over $ 60. While the food was mediocre it was definately not worth the price. The place is DIRTY looks like they haven’t cleaned the carpet some 1961. The service was horrible. The server put every single thing right in front of the baby. The high chair has velcro that’s so old it doesn’t even secure. We ended up holding the baby the entire time. Im all for local establishments but one stinks!

I was disappointed that I came here yesterday for ice cream and they were out of 3 of the flavors I chose. I settled for a soft serve vanilla and chocolate swirl, which was pretty good, just not what I wanted. My mother in law recommended their food so I came back today for their burgers. The burger was good but I could have done without the pound of mayonnaise.

ya want a burger and spend 20 bucks for burger and fries, ya 2 burger meal and tip 50 bucks, 20 bucks a berger, went here all my 43 years of life and ladt fews year cost more and more till really have to be a joke and since raise price I am out never be back and place will fail got like cheap safeway buns with burger, really and you want 20 bucks a burger does it have go. d in it or just gold digger in it, is there a regulation on what to charge for a stinking burger, 20 bucks for safway burger buns with I assume safeway meat and cheap frozen fries I mean really, go out of buisness you deserve it,

The best hang over food ever! The buns are toasted with butter to perfection, real bacon, shredded lettuce and super yummy mayo. You might want to get a double the patties are a little thin, but definitely bomb! I didn’t know French fries were supposed to have any flavor besides potato. They are fried perfectly to a crisp. I don’t think anything has changed here for 50 years. Whatever they’re doing it’s working.

Driven by this place for years, finally my daughter and i stopped in. Food was good. We will be going back.

Good burger, good fries, good price and friendly service!
Huge fan of snow ice in my soda pop, which they had!

The food is not bad at all but damn!!! These people act like they have never seen a brown person before! Seriously… A customer is a customer… I hate the fact that my money went to their paychecks, don’t think ill come back.

Ate here for the first time today. Not impressed. Ordered a regular burger and fries. Burger was dry, and the bread seemed stale. Fries had zero flavor (no seasoning at all).
Service was OK, until I asked for some ketchup. I was handed 2 packets and had to ask for more. I was given 2 more and again had to ask for more. Ketchup packets seemed to be 10 years old and wouldn’t even rip. Ended up going to haggens to get ketchup.
Most likely won’t return.

This place has seemed to go down hill over the last year. I usually go there for dessert but decided to try a cheese burger and fries!
It was the worst stale burger I’ve ever had. It was a small patties covered in a mayo-​sweet pickle sauce that was so sweet I could barely eat it. The bread was clearly toasted to cover up the fact it very stale bread. The fries were so greasy and had no flavor.
On top of the price being pricey the drive thru girl had no customer service and didn’t want to give any napkins or ketchup!!! I would skip this place all together and go to country burger for the same price you get a huge burger that has all the fixings and great fries!!!

Loved going here growing up… Perfect for a greasy cheeseburger & soda pop! Prices are fair & I love that the dinning room hasn’t changed that much.

Burger and fries were good. My wife and I tried the chocolate soft serve. It was the absolute worst. She brought them to us and they were off white in color, not a chocolate color. They tasted horrible. You thought the server would have known something was wrong. My wife took hers back and exchanged for chocolate hard ice cream. Not only did it taste old, it tasted like the cheapest ice cream you could find. Stay away from the ice cream at the Fountain!!! The owner should be ashamed to serve such bad ice cream.

I was driving through after hiking and wanted a Simple Burger and Shake. This place had 50 year anniversary sign on it so I had to check it out!
Hey, There must be a reason a place can be in business 50 years!
Cheap prices for simple diner burgers that has a toasty bun and you can build it how you want it. (refreshing that the customer has ordering rights here.)
BUT for me it was ALL ABOUT THE SHAKES & MALTS! They are AMAZING! You can’t find them made this way any more. Thick, Delicious, they have everything from Local Berry Season Flavored Shakes to Coffee or Chocolate Malts.
Not fancy, it’s just a great Fountain Drive-​in that time has stopped for, seems good for kids food, and I will be back when I’m through the area for that SHAKE.

For $ 5.31 I got 2 eggs, hashed browns, and toast, jam, ketchup, napkins and utensils. It was better compared to my review of the Bluebird.
«For $ 7.06 out the door you get 2 eggs, hashed browns, and toast. Good food but when you order to go you must ask for utensils, ketchup and jam. I like it better when i don’t have to go back after i have discovered the missing items. I did get napkins though. And when I did go back they gave me 4 jams, and 9 packets of ketchup way more than I needed.»
