Gary's Drive In

I enjoy a good burger from local eateries. A nice dive. This is what I got. I ordered a burger and onion rings. It delivered. The employees were so helpful as well. I see why this place is busy all the time. Definitely stop in. It's good on all fronts.

Owensboro friends and visitors, don't sleep on this wonderful find! Drive through, eat in or outside picnic area. I usually go for the burger, tots, and milk shakes. Tuesday, I tried breakfast! I went through the drive through, the sign lets you know your food is cooked to order and may take a little longer. The person who took my order also cooked it, bagged it and gave it to me through the second window (she was fantastic at every level of service). She let me know the hash browns were home cooked when I ordered the sandwich (which I did place on my sandwich later). Plus I ordered sliced tomatoes. She offered a choice of meats and breads. I chose bacon and bun. When she handed me my food she let me know she packed ketchup, salt & pepper plus serving wear. When I got to work and unpacked, everything was still hot. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fully cooked and tender on the inside. The potatoes fit perfectly in the sandwich. The sandwich had a soft fluffy bun, thick crispy bacon, a perfectly cooked fried egg, and a slice of cheese. I topped the sandwich with ketchup. The sandwich is delicious! I ate half and it perfectly got me through a busy morning at the shoppe. Plus held me over until I was able to eat the other half for my late lunch. I appreciate the convenience of the drive through, even with the wait; the foods worth it.

Ordered a chicken sandwich. I was given two chicken tenders on a bun. If I wanted chicken tenders, I would have ordered those. The thing was a mess to try and eat. "Shoestring fries" were overdone and way too crispy. Others in my group said their burgers were decent, so maybe stick with the burger if you go.

Got the Burger Week burger. It was really good! The coffee rub, sauce, and slaw really added flavor, and the patty itself was solid. Definitely one of the more creative and interesting options. Had tots on the side, they were nice and crunchy without being burnt or losing the potato. Sweet tea was perfect. All the employees were very nice. The inside of the restaurant is small but cozy. For how busy they were, they got the food out in good time. I'd definitely go back!

Great little place, classic drive in food. I got a cheeseburger and chili cheese tots. Everything was cooked to order and fresh, nice big slab of tomato on my burger and homemade chili on my tots. Everything was good, don't expect gourmet expect comfort food from a good old fashion drive in. Not alot of seating but I didn't have a problem getting a seat.
