Lakeview Drive Inn

Honestly really disappointed in this place. Was about to leave it a 3 star review but that turned into one star once I realized my gluten free bun wasn’t actually GF, which resulted in a bunch of health issues afterwards. The burger also tasted exactly like a McDonalds burger, but was way pricier. The fries tasted like cardboard, had no salt or anything on them. And the customer service wasn’t good either. We weren’t told ahead of time that it was going to be a 30+ minute wait because of a large group ahead of us, and they just weren’t very friendly. I don’t expect amazing quality from a little drive in, but this was so disappointing. I’m also aware there are risks with gluten while eating out, but don’t offer GF buns if you aren’t going to take it seriously.

It was ok. Alot more hype than necessary. But I did grow up in an area that had alot of traditional drive ins and still have the total nostalgic realness of one from the 50s. Including a couple A &W's, so I MAY be a little partial. Service was quick and friendly, the home brewed rootbeer was ok, the frosty mugs 🍺 are always a plus, but like I said, I grew up with a couple small town A&W's :) No car stalls or speaker menus to order from, just an opening parking lot or you can go inside. Their dairy free, gluten free, vegan soft serve tho?? A 10+!!!! Still trying to figure out what it's made out of, but such a treat for someone who is lactose intolerant and can't handle a ton of any kind of sugar, I RARELY can get ANY kind of ice cream!! 💜 oh and they do have everyone beat on the deep fried mushrooms as well! Perfect coating not the cheap nasty frozen panko crumb breaded kind!
