Wow. Amazing ice cream portions

June 16, 2024

Not impressed. Please discuss with workers an appropriate way to talk to customers and handle miscommunication/wrong orders rather than being defensive and ignorant.

June 16, 2024

My family and I came here on Father’s Day and were deeply disappointed with our experience. The worker who took our order was exceptionally unwelcoming and rude. We waited for our order to be called like those before us, however no workers let us know our food was ready and waiting, so it was several minutes before another customer let us know. When we received our food, there were several items missing such as the gravy we ordered and all four drinks. When we came back up to the window, another worker was incredibly disrespectful, and only then were we informed how half of our beverage choices were out of stock. We will not be returning in the near future, unless customer service is approached differently.

I went with my Nan, Mother, and Sister the last time, but I have gone before plenty of times. The food is great and served in large sizes, but the people who work there are regularly not the friendliest people, they usually ignore you or try to hurry you when you are ordering.

★★★★★

I grew up with Brant Drive-in and I'm pretty sure it keeps getting better. The amount of food you get for the price in unreal. The food is always good. Staff is always friendly. I have yet to have a bad experience.

★★★

Great service, friendly staff, burgers and dogs were very good. The ice cream is terrific, large and reasonable. Only downside is that I like to go to a roadside stand for homemade fries and they serve frozen fries that I could buy at the grocery store! Stop for the ice cream and eat elsewhere.

I loved this little food place. Was driving by and think about fast food when I saw this place and thought lets do this instead of drive through. I had a foot long dog with cheese and bacon with fries and enjoyed it.

Stopped here on the way through town. Very large brown and black spider in my sour cream. We saw her scoop the sour cream from a large container into a small to-go plastic container, so it was probably in the container, but come on :( After we picked it out, it started moving around. I was near vomiting the rest of the way home. Horrible experience.

Wow oh wow! Unbelievable prices for the food you get!! We had 2 bacon burgers, one foot long hotdog, onion rings a very large poutine and a bottle of iced tea $33.04. Then my wife and son got two large scoops of ice cream each for $7 i made them call back because I thought the were under charged , nope 4 scoops for $7!!!

Classic Chapmans ice cream served in a waffle cone. Generous scoops. Miss the Llama.

December 21, 2021

First off, this is the first bad review I ve ever left in my life, so this just shows how gross this is. Came here and ordered a hamburger and poutine. The lady working cashed us out and proceeded to make our food without gloves... mid pandemic. I mean she was touching the bun, the toppings and everything without gloves and without washing her hands. We did complain and the employee responded with we re just doin what we re told so your employer instructed you to work unsanitary? Food was good tho!

I go to this place a lot this year and was impressed by the portions that you got regarding the ice cream. However today I witnessed a tall man in a red shirt order a large soft soft swirl ice cream. I have seen him as well a lot this year. The teenage boy that got him his ice cream gave him a small/medium portion in a cone that was only about 2 inches high. It was not a large by any means. The tall man politely said that he ordered a LARGE and the young lad would not give him a large. The tall man was quite annoyed but ate the ice cream while waiting for the rest of his order....IN THREE BITES. Again that was not a large and the man got ripped off. After seeing this I walked away and got food elsewhere. I will not support a business that rips off their customers.....especially the repeat ones. I have seen that man before coming out of a small red EV Hatchback ( Bolt EV I think ) and if I see him again I would suggest the same thing to go elsewhere.

If your looking for cheap eats and fast service this is the place. Well known for the soft serve ice cream and deep-fried goodies. Large portion of fries with combination orders, but the one piece fish is not worth the money as its a big fish stick!

First time here and I will never go back. I watched my burger and my boyfriends burgers get put together by staff with BARE HANDS- NO GLOVES. We were so disgusted but starving (also paid way to much for an awful burger) so we ate. Half way through my bacon cheese burger I bit into a piece of bacon that felt like it actually cracked or chipped my front tooth which thank god it didnt. Awful experience in general. They need a health and safety inspector in there stat!

The large poutine is huge! You can share it with 4 people. I dont recommend the cheese sticks though. The soft serve tastes good too. Want something cheap and fast? Craving something at night? Brant drive-in is just the place.

Worst soft ice cream ever. Full of air and literally shrunk before my eyes. $2 for a small cone. Go somewhere else
