It’s a little crazy to me…they prompt for a tip at the counter, call our number over the intercom to avoid walking 10 feet when we were the only ones in the restaurant. Lazy.

We were famished. The food was good. A bit pricey. It was hard to find an open place to eat. We initially came in to try their malts and burger but we only got the burgers and drinks. We were the only ones eating at the time. The cashier was super friendly. They have an eating contest which seemed interesting so I took a picture of the rules. Only two people have done it so far. Maybe next time through we will try the challenge.
The entrance can be a bit aggressive when you first walk in because the cashier is a sharp right when you come in and doesn't feel like enough space to comfortably take your time to look at the menu. So we hastily ordered.

Husband got a burger (it was ok) I got ice cream with pieces of cookie dough in it. The cookie dough pieces tasted about 2-3 yrs old and I ended up throwing it all away. It was terrible.

Cheeseburger had a very weird taste - almost like water from a garden hose. I’m pretty sure it was freezer burned meat because in tasting the patty alone it was definitely the meat. The malt was good. Would come back for the icecream, but wouldn’t spend my money on the food again, especially with the burger alone being $12. Prices went up since their menu 7 months ago, so don’t be fooled!
UPDATE: I’m not shocked at the response from the business as most negative reviews have a comeback response that’s not professional and quite snarky. So the patties aren’t ever frozen…both burgers yesterday still had a very odd and unpleasant taste that I’m sure doesn’t come from fresh broth. Perhaps old broth? SOMETHING was terribly off! I understand prices increase. I recommend posting a new menu to avoid confusion for the customer, as now you can’t sub your soft drink on your combo order for a shake/malt for an up charge as their menu posted 7 months ago says. I change my mind on coming back for icecream…I will not return to this establishment simply because of my experience yesterday, owner comment on my review, and in reading the other owner responses to prior negative reviews.

Kind of underwhelming honestly, I’ve heard much about this place, $30 for a single patty burger small thing of fries, a drink n shake. That’s kind of highway robbery for a burger that was dripping wet and I didn’t even have any condiments on it. Heard you get ‘five guys’ quantity fries… Ive had more fries coke in my nephews happy meal. Everything is a upcharge. Bring your wallet

I am disabled. An Asian worker lady saw me standing outside looking at the ice cream. She saw I could not get up the steps to get into the store. So she brought it outside to me without being asked.
What a really nice person.

We are two non-beef eaters who were in a small town and needed something to eat. Not many places were open in South Fork on a Monday afternoon at 3pm except for pizza and we both like chocolate malts so we tried the South Fork Malt Shoppe. We were thrilled to see that they had green chili and mushroom burgers so we ordered grilled cheese sandwiches and had them add green chilies and mushroom, which they didn't skimp on. Our grilled cheese was perfectly cooked and had plenty of delicious, well-distributed toppings. It's making my mouth water thinking about it as I'm writing this review! The chocolate malt was a perfect consistency and they gave us a large, sturdier straw for good sucking. The french fries were perfect and we both enjoyed our meal. They had a diverse menu including cod fish and chips, fish tacos, and Chicken baskets. This would be a great place for meat eaters because they had a good burger selection, and I would definitely bring my kids here. They even had real ice cream tubs that you could get scooped out for cones or sundaes. The place was clean, bathroom was clean, and there were lots of tables inside and also seating outside either open air or under a shade cloth. Staff was veryfriendly. We will definitely stop in again.
Lots of people waiting when we walked in. A little chaotic to order. Long wait for food but worth it! Took home one of the best pizzas we’ve had. While waiting, we saw some amazing looking food go out to tables and the ice cream sundaes and banana splits looked so tempting!

The green chile burger is amazing!!! Big enough for two people to share. The French fries were killer too! Of course we had to get dessert as well. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend eating here. Keep up the good work!

The burgers were dry and tasteless, I know of 3 other people who have gotten sick after eating here and the bald guy behind the counter is rude enough to make you not want to stay and eat the food anyway, he either hates his life or just hates people either way he will treat you like a second rate citizen just for breathing his air.

Great local burger stop ! Their menu offers multiple types of burgers- pizza - wings- and yes - even a cod fish & chips! They also have shakes and sundaes and bana splits! I wish I had this burger shop in my town!
ordered Swiss mushroom burger- order came up quickly and the size of the burger was a gigantic 1/2 pound! Burger and fries were hot … the food was delicious.
