Wasn't open on the sunday we went their. Almost looked like it is out of business... couldn't tell. No hours of operations or open/closed sign.

I'll start with the best part. The root beer is so good!! We usually have to grab a gallon to bring home. It just hits differently than anywhere else in town. I was slightly disappointed this season it appeared the chili sauce was changed. It was a different color. The flavor was slightly off. Not bad but not great. I don't like that when using a debit card there is no where on the receipt to leave a tip. It is a great place for a little nostalgia. I have been going to the root beer stand since I was a kid. Gone are the days of goofy golf. I would love if they did that again. It would be fun to experience that with my kids. A Foot long chilli dog with cheese and onion and a bag of Andi Caps has been my favorite thing to get since I was probably old enough to order it. The chicken sandwiches are great too.

We looked for a quick bite as we got gas right off of US24. Jiggs drive in was highly rated, so we went there for food.Reminds me of a drive in of old, the waitress came right out to the car to take our order!We got a hot dog with their house-made ketchup, mustard and relish, and the best roast beef sandwich I've had in 20 years! It wasn't the nasty pressed beef that places serve today, it was all real pulled beef.They have their own root beer that was awesome, and the prices were great!My only regret was that i didn't order 2 of the pulled beef sandwiches.Their weekday hours are limited, so check Google first to make sure that are open, but if you are tired of the regular fast food fare off the highway, go a little further to Jiggs and get great food fast that reminds you of the past!

We ended up here on a Monday for dinner after going to a few places in Trip Advisor only to find they were either closed on Mondays or no longer in business. The food was good but we were disappointed that they would not allow us to dine in. Looked like there maybe 3-5 booths inside but they were only serving at your vehicle. We had a brat with sauerkraut, footlong with chili and cheese and the stuffed pretzel. The sandwiches and root beer (no refills) were all good. Skip the dry pretzel.

Root beer is awesome.. could use a glass mug and have it chilled though. Hot dogs are just OK. Parking is tight.

Excellent root beer with mug. Sandwiches are good as well. Can't wait for them to open up for 2023 season.

They say you can never go home, but you can at Jiggs. It was great when I was a kid and it's great now. Nice to know that no matter how far you roam there is still a little piece of home here in Defiance.

My mom grew up coming here. Came for the family memories. Stayed for the root beer floats. And you don’t get drive-in service like this anymore! Thanks to the whole team ?
