I went to this location specifically because I was able to buy the perfect gift-a $25 gift card with a free Teen burger and the Christmas ornaments-this years and from 2022 and 2021 too. Have eaten here on a few other occasions, too. The food was always good, hot and fresh. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

We do not have a lot of A&W in Washington State so we decided to try it before we head back to the States. The food was ok. The service was phenomenal. The cashier lady has a good attitude despite being the only person working the front. She was very nice and a hard worker.

Stopped for lunch. Lots of parking in rear for long trailer. Restaurant was clean and staff friendly. Ordered teen burger plus mozza burger. No brew bar. But both burgers were fresh off the grill. Nice and plenty of toppings. Came out fast too. Very tasty glad I stopped.

I went through the drive thru at 4:55pm. The food was amazing. They were the best cooked fries I have had in a long time. Tender and soft inside and crispy brown on the outside. Burger was neatly made and tasty. My compliments to the cook.

Stopped by for a Saturday morning breakfast and the food was great. The place was very busy and the lady working the counter was polite and despite being very busy was helping the customers with a great attitude. She seemed to know several by name and had a great rapport with them, offering to carry their trays to the tables of some of the more elderly ones. Though it should be mentioned she carried my tray as well even though I’m not that old. Staff not helping with the food service were busy keeping the place clean and it shows.

Slowest A&W within 1000km, Understaffed by atleast 4 crew every day and it took 38 minuites for a single teen meal, it wasnt busy in the slightest. This location is a joke.

Nothing better than a teen burger, onion rings and a cold A&W root beer.

December 22, 2023

2:00pm on June 15th we were rushed through ordering and told to head to the window twice in the middle of still ordering our food... By the second time we gave up trying to finish ordering and just went to the window. Our food took alot longer then it should have for being a basically empty resturant and drive through

Why do the burgers always taste bland now? Where did the seasoning go? I dont ask because Im used to not asking and then you get to where your going and its a big... omg I didnt ask Just make the dub burgers how they used to be and if people dont want salt they can ask for no seasoning... frankly thats what makes your burgers...

I dont understand why everytime I come here for a breakfast sandwich it is a 7 minute wait cause they just sold a bunch!?!? I figure if you are selling breakfast you should be cooking breakfast at the same time, must be due to poor management. Multiple vehicles behind us get there orders right away and when we finally get our one sausage and egger it didnt even have an egg on it.

Not as nice as the one on Dunmore, but only because they have a woman there who is so pleasant and nice to talk with that it brightens the whole experience of buying fast food. This A&W the employees seem placid and unhappy. But they are effective at their job so I suppose at least there is that.
