Staff is friendly & welcoming. Sadly, seems like everything is overcooked. Burgers, fries, hot dogs, zucchini fries. Zero flavor to their sauerkraut. Hot dogs are big, have a nice snap & are charred, which is ok, but tasteless. Appreciate the fixin' bar. Their fries use to be amazing, not sure what happened.

Surprisingly I did another visit on 10/6/2025. After giving it some time to revisit due to a review prior to this one, but this time I was VERY impressed to see that everyone at this establishment were wearing gloves while cooking and preparing customers orders! All the prep areas were clean, spotless and I also appreciate that they continue to have a designated area to order your food. It displeases me to go into any restaurant and see the same people that are cashing out and touching people's money and credit cards then turn around and prepare food and bag customers order that's disgusting BUT at Glenwood they've made the distinction between the two areas and that's a plus for me!! My late husband and I always enjoyed bringing our 3 kids here growing up and their all adults with their own kids now.
Thanks, Glenwood for keeping your establishment clean, inviting, and professional!😉💗

1st time clam strips were good went the other night and they were overcooked and had to spit 4 or 5 into my napkin. 2 clam strip dinners were 61.00 dollars, thought that was high priced. Also place needs a make over floor is a mess and uneven dangerous for older people. Tables are not always clean

A Hamden institution. Classic old school Hamburger & Hotdog drive-in, with seafood options. Very good Hotdogs, footlong Hummels. Onion rings, made fresh in house. Don't forget to go next door to Kelly's for ice cream.

The last time I was being here in 2019, and I came back again because I missed their hot dogs and ice cream. It's hard to believe they've been around since 1955. If you're in Hamden, don't miss checking in here.

Never order shrimp from there.They're lobster, roll is so soggy, and the lobster was tough.The shrimp were disgusting.Don't anything good about that place is the hot dogs
This is a favorite restaurant of anyone that knows about it for decades It has the best lobster rolls Connecticut style that you’ve ever eaten It also has whole body clams, which are almost impossible to find And if you want something unusual, order Fringe which is a combination of delicious onion rings and french fries They also have giant hotdog what you feel like them burnt. Just tell them burn it.

I’ve been coming here for over 40 years. I used to bring my daughters and now I bring my granddaughters I still think they have the best hot dogs around. It’s gotten a bit pricey but everything has.
