Very simple instructions and couldn't get it right.... no tomatoes and no pickles and yet still had it on my burger. Nobody in line either. read more Very simple instructions and couldn't get it right.... no tomatoes and no pickles and yet still had it on my burger. Nobody in line either.

It's tucked into the corner of their gas station, with probably only about 225 square feet in the seating area, but the gas station is nicely decorated with mostly wood panelled walls, and so looks much nicer than the simplewhite plaster and tile that 80% of gas stations normally use. The staff has always been nice and fast, and their food isfantastic! A great place to go!

However, they served it in a to-go cup and packaged the food in to-go bags, even though I had ordered for dine-in. The floats are much better when served in glasses, so I really recommend that. My meal, the Double Mushroom Melt, was okay. It definitely had a lot of canned mushrooms but lacked sufficient meat. I’m not sure why I was surprised by the canned mushrooms, but their overwhelming presence was a bit off-putting. The other flavors were decent, and the kids' meal included a lollipop, which was a nice touch. Overall, if it weren't for the nostalgia, I probably wouldn’t return unless it was a hot day and I was nearby, solely for a float.
