About Big Boy
Big Boy Reviews
Always good food. The old style Big Boy with all the windows is just a delight - and you can’t beat Strawberry fest - my go to Breakfast and Brunch place anywhere there is one
First time at the restaurant and the bathrooms were horrible! The prices were a little outrageous but we're also not impressed with the food. Very bland and not good! I'm sorry but we didn't leave a tip and we definitely will not be back.
Menu
Big Boy is a decent burger joint that offers a classic dining experience. The "Big Boy" burger, served with fries, is a popular choice, featuring a tasty sauce reminiscent of thousand island dressing with a hint of extra spices. The staff is described as super kind and attentive, providing good service. Customers often mention the friendly welcome from the hostess and the great food, including fresh salads and delicious orange dream shakes.
The restaurant is appreciated as an "old gem" that has kept its nostalgic charm over the years. The breakfast buffet, although not as good as before, still has some highlights like the gravy and bacon, despite some complaints about it being cold or undercooked. The overall experience is comfortable and familiar, with some customers enjoying seeing the vintage Big Boy merchandise on display.
However, there are concerns about the cleanliness of the public restrooms, particularly the ladies' room, which is quite small. The claw machines are seen as disappointing, but the restaurant remains a place for a reliable, classic meal and a nostalgic atmosphere.
