This is purely a review of their food - I'm not about to judge them on the space since they're kinda in a parking lot. I've had their food a few times, and I usually start on my meal about 5 mins after I got it from them. This is kind of a factor for burgers and fries...

...And they are excellent! Their burgers are solid, and very reasonably priced. I like Jack in the Box, but if I'm paying $8-10 on a nice burger from either place, Fosters Freeze is by far the better choice. Minimal grease or salt, doesn't make me want to run and grab a salad afterwards - yeah, these guys are legit!

As for fries, I'd rate them as pretty good overall, but you can't go wrong with their waffle fries - so good that I'm tempted to go back just to order only those!

If you think of them as a takeout spot and not a sit down restaurant, then they're definitely up there at the top. Thanks guys!

Been going here since a kid! Always get a chocolate dipped ice cream cone 🍦

Twisters....soft serve with your choice of treat blended inside. Classic favorite. And the dipped cones, that's why people go to a Foster's Freeze, right? Well, they got 'em

The last few times I went there, there was a problem with my order. I ordered a chili burger with nothing but chili only. I get to my destination and find they put cheese on it. It's too far to go back.
Last time, I ordered a large vanilla shake, and it did not taste the same.
The price is not consistent. I order the same thing every time, and I have seen the price inconsistent.
I'm going to try one more time, and if the shake is not the same, goodbye.

Good ice cream and corn dogs.

$20 flat for one burger (no combo) because I asked for one extra patty. Non itemized receipt. Avoid.

My onion rings were hot and tasty, and the soda was frosty cold. It was a nice snack while I was waiting for my laundry at the laundromat next door.

Yikes! Felt like a war zone.
Banana split was devine!

I remember the ice cream being creamier.. kinda felt watery compared to the chocolate harder layer. Still nostalgic, and still on the corner.

Pure Nostalgia! I can't wait to bring my grandbabies to have an Iconic chocolate dipped ice cream cone and it's just as good from when I was a kid ?. I am so glad they are still around

Wanted a strawberry malt, it took me back to my teen days having a Fosters Freeze within walking ?‍♂️ distance. Enjoyed the satisfied feeling again, wonderful walk down memory lane.
