My favorites are the bacon jam burger and the fried mushrooms! Fun place to go for ice cream and to hang out and play pool with a friend.

This is a nice place to get burgers,onion rings or fries. If you are going through Marshall Arkansas, you should definitely check this place out. read more

From the outside this looks like a dive, but inside you'll be greeted by friendly faces eager to take your order. If there's a line, it'll be with the wait. The shrimp basket is filled with shrimp, hush puppies, slaw, roll, and your choice of fries, tots, or onion rings. It's served hot and delicious. They advertise "we guarantee fast service bi matter how long it takes," but the food comes out fast. Stop in and enjoy a 5 star fast food meal that's not a chain. read more

Great food, great service, a really classic diner feel. The burgers were great and so were the milkshakes! They even had a little arcade in the back with pool tables! read more

Just your classic good ole burger joint. Everything is always good. I love stopping here before we head to the drive in theater or just if we are passing through. The onions rings are always a fav and of course a cheeseburger. The prices are good, it's family friendly and everyone is always kind. read more

A few of the burger chains do pretty good, but it is hard to beat small-town pride! Daisy Queen has been serving good food in AR for over 50 years, and they are worth a stop! Extensive menu for a burger joint; I stuck to the basics. Cheeseburger w mustard, crinkle-cut fries w ketchup, drink w my meal - and a chocolate malt for dessert. Yumm! If you are an American fan; you must eat here. Imagine the pride of being a cheerleader at a highschool football game, crossed w a small-town 4th of July parade - in the form of food. This is it. read more

Daisy Queen - Everything I need and nothing extra; perfect. - American Near Me - Marshall, Arkansas

We love their hamburgers, fries, pattymelts, fried pickles and their heath bar freezer ice cream!! We always stop and eat here while going to the white river. read more

Stopped by on our way to LittleRock airport to get some treats. Reminds me of a throw back frosty freeze from California. Their ice cream menu is pretty endless and they have just about anything you could want when it comes to ice cream. Banana Split was pretty legit. Funnel fries were awesome and you can order with different fruit flavored dipping sauces. Probably about a million calories. We ordered a burger, fries, corn dog and chili cheese dog and all were pretty classic tasting. Chili cheese dog was a bit on the cold/soggy side. By brother and law said the burger was very tasty. Nice little quick stop joint and you can tell they are popular as there were plenty of cars and line outside. Building and dining was a little on the tires side but I don't think people visit for the atmosphere read more

A must stop in Marshall especially if you're floating the Buffalo River. Highly Recommend

We passed Daisy Queen on our drive further south, and literally turned around to go back and try it. This town didn't seem to have a lot of local spots open, and this place was hoppin'. We decided we would rather support Daisy Queen than a fast-food or franchise chain.  You could either order outside at the window, with a few picnic tables under umbrellas outside, or you could order inside and see the full menu and sit inside with several booths. The menu looked great, with your normal smatterings of burgers, hot dogs, milkshakes, chilli, etc. There was a section on the menu named something like "Other Things Of Interest" which I found to be humorous and cute. They also had a pineapple shake on the menu that I should have tried (reminded me of my hometown local drive-thru).  We ended up ordering two cheeseburgers and a butterscotch milkshake. The staff was very helpful, friendly, and fast. Our food was good and fresh, but it seemed to me like the hamburger patty was missing some seasoning. The butterscotch milkshake was somewhat disappointing. It tasted more like a vanilla shake.  Overall, I'm not sure if I'd ever stop by again, maybe if we're driving through again. However, I'm very glad we stopped here to support a local business. It was definitely better than a fast-food chain restaurant! read more

Cute place just be ready to wait. The menu has a variety of items so plenty to choose from! Food was cold but good. read more

Daisy Queen - Single bacon cheeseburger and fried mushrooms - American Near Me - Marshall, Arkansas

Waited almost 20 minutes for our order and the food came out lukewarm at best. They were busy, but not THAT busy.

You will only be disappointed if you don't go. The food is consistent and the variety is more than enough for any craving.

Best food in Marshall by far always fresh and hot food ice cream best ever also the service is always first class to

This is a rural gem. I drove by, lots of trucks in parking lot so I stopped and read the reviews. Double CB was great and I finished my chocolate which was also great. read more

Perfect stop while traveling! Good selection of food, portion options, reasonable prices. Entire family gave two thumbs up

My husband and I wanted to have a few days get away in the Ozark mountains. We also wanted a perfect piece of coconut pie and a perfect cup of coffee. We had both. What a cute place!! read more

There are out of the way restaurants that are truly destinations to visit. Then there are fast food places that have something really special about them. This Daisy Queen is a combination of those 2 types. It is a destination with a lot of special going on! It is next to a scenic overview of a valley. It is a long looking building of stone and brick work with a large bricked in outdoor seating area. The small round windows were interesting designs on the long stone covered side! There were festive Christmas decorations covering the posts. I assumed the ownership are University of Arkansas fans with the large razorback image as you walk by the seating area. The entry way allows you to order from the window or come on inside and order. We went in since it was raining. I fell in love with the menu as well as the old style yellow menu board. It isn't the typical dairy type fast food restaurant. They had all kinds of options! I listened to patrons in front of us and behind us rave on and on about what they had last time and what they wanted to try this time. Funny, as it actually sounded like some of the previous reviews! (Maybe these people were eating there again?) I just wanted a snack so we shared a BLT and a couple of Heath Bar Freezes. As I was waiting on the sandwich, I toured the place enroute to the restrooms. It was exceptionally clean and had the fresh smell of cleaner in the restroom and hall. This place has a large game room and a family were shooting pool and playing on one of the arcade games. The BLT had fresh crisp cold iceberg lettuce, juicy ripe tomato slices and crisp smokey bacon on well toasted bread slathered in mayonnaise. The freeze was full of Heath Bar pieces and very high quality dairy freeze ice cream. I actually felt jealous of the locals as they could come here way more often than I could. My next time, I'm in for the Deluxe Taco Salad! read more

The cheeseburger is just like the ones I had growing up; it just has that taste. The taco salad is delicious especially with melted cheese and sides of sour cream and salsa, but if you want "salad" this is not it. The "salad" has a few small shreds of lettuce plus a couple of tomato bites. It's more like nachos... . The beef is well seasoned and warm, contrasting nicely with the cold sour cream. I would definitely eat here again. read more

We've driven by this place many times on our drive to Little Rock and it always looked busy. We finally stopped by today after yet another trip to Little Rock, and I am glad we did! The menu is really large, and everything is really cheap. My fiancé and I had lunch for $18 which includes taco salad (weighed a ton!), small order of tots, a Colby Jack honey mustard chicken sandwich, and a fried Twinkie sundae. It was delicious and hit the spot! Service was a little bit slow, nothing outrageous, but it showed me they cooked everything fresh to order. My favorite part was that the cashier didn't make our sundae with our meal, so it wouldn't melt! That was super nice of her. All around, it's a cute place with surprisingly good food! And there's something for everybody. We'll be making a stop here when we can! read more

Daisy Queen - Fried Twinkie sundae! Delicious. - American Near Me - Marshall, Arkansas

Really good Angus burgers, especially for the bargain prices. Most are under $5. The shakes are also good and come in several flavors, though the butterscotch was too mild, I thought it was closer to vanilla. The venue is a bit unusual, with a classic walk up service window and outside seating. It's got a front dining section with restrooms you have to step up into. In the back there is is a game room with a few more tables. It has pool tables, air hockey, video games, and even pinball. The tables were sticky and the place needs updating. The service was weak the first time we visited, but improved the second time when it wasn't just youngsters working. I'm still trying to decide if the food overcomes the shortcomings. Yeah, I think the burgers get them there Still, it wouldn't be too hard to step up training and make cleaning a priority. Food-4 stars, service-3 stars, building-3 stars, cleanliness-2 stars. read more

Never disappoints! A gem you pray stays around for more generations to enjoy. Beats all the chain fast foods for burgers and fries.

This is definitely my favorite place to eat when working in the area. The food is fair priced, excellent quality and taste, and the staff is fantastic! I would highly recommend! read more

Excellent food. Old fashion home cooked burgers with fries, blueberry sundae and fried pies. Everything was fixed great. Service and prices were good also. Will be stopping by next time I come through the town. read more

We stopped here on a long road trip to try something different and more local. We were so impressed with the delicious made to order food and great service! I wish we had a Daisy Queen by us! I can see why it's such a great local hangout. Loved it! read more

Well, the food is not something you will brag about. However, if you come to Marshall Arkansas, likely you come for Buffalo National River float in the summer, it's nice to have a place you can sit down to have Icecream and fulfilling foods after the float. I would it's better than McDonald at least it's more locally authentic. read more

The shakes are amazing! Great burgers and onion rings!!! We love stopping here every time we go to Branson!

Did you need grub whilst in Marshall, Arkansas? THIS IS A PLACE YOU CAN GET IT. Pretty much undistinguished diner fare, but given the paucity of options, this is important to know. People who live here must be in fear they might close. read more

A burger like this gives you hope that not all fast food needs to be McDonald's. Stopped here on a recent road trip into Branson and it did not disappoint. Really cool little place, friendly staff, and a delicious no frills cheeseburger. The prices were also really really reasonable and they have fried pies! read more

Place is lively inside and out. Staff is nice and punctual and the food is stupendous.

prices were good, portions were good, service was amazing, and i found the name funny. we went because we thought it was a rip-off of dairy queen, but this place is really good. i just think that their fudge could be thicker, and the chocolate chip cookie dough could have more flavor. overall, it was great read more

This is a fantastic place to stop on the way to Harrison. However -- I don't know where Phyllis R ate, but it certainly couldn't have been at the Daisy Queen. A plain hamburger is $2.49. The largest burger there is the Triple, and it's $5.44, read more

We stopped at Daisy Queen on our way home from Branson and were surprised to find this great hole in the wall! The burger was fantastic, and the ice cream was great. I highly recommend a stop at Daisy Queen if you are in the area. read more

Best burgers in Marshall! $$ is affordable too. Hope they get gluten free bread choices soon but we go here when not near home and hungry!

Love the Daisy Queen! I've been coming here since a child and have loved every minute of it. It has the feeling of somewhere you would see on Dinners, Drive-In's and Dives. Personal favorites include cheeseburgers, shrimp and chicken baskets and seasoned fries. They can get very busy, especially during the summer months, but it is worth the wait. read more

This was a great stop for lunch. Just happened to be driving by and stopped in. We both got cheeseburgers and onion rings for a good price. Their cheeseburgers were delicious. Looks like they have some good ice cream too but we did not try any. Nice seating area both outside and inside. Game room. read more

This place has been a landmark for decades, so I hate to give only 2 stars..., but. Because it started as a drive in, you order at a window inside and wait for your name to be called. The woman who took our order was courteous and fast. However, the wait was a bit long, especially for tater tots that weren't fully cooked. I suspect the tenderloin, a special, came from Ben E. Keith, Sysco, or another food-service company already breaded, fried, and frozen. It was tough and tasteless...and too much money for what it was. It won't be very long before DQ will have to rely on more than being the only game in town. I hope they can step it up. read more

Smells and tastes just like Barney's Drive-In of my youth. Great burgers and fries pies, not crazy about the fries. Taste like they are either baked or old, but they have tots, onion rings, cheese sticks, etc to choose from! Frozen treats are great! A must stop if you are going through Marshall! read more

This is a must stop place for us on the way to the Buffalo River. The burgers are excellent and the ice cream is divine.

I drove into Marshall, Arkansas late one evening, looking for a cheap place to sleep and a good place to eat. Driving from one end of town to the other, I was disappointed to find that there were very few options, and most of those were national chains--Subway and Pizza Hut being the most prominent. Asking around about a local restaurant, everyone pointed me the same direction--to the "Daisy Queen" that sits on the main drag, Hwy 65. I had noticed the place, but burgers don't generally interest me. Not willing to partake of the familiar fare of Subway or Pizza Hut, I reluctantly ducked into the Daisy Queen. The decor certainly wasn't much to speak of--but the food, Oh! The food! I ordered a cheeseburger the first time I visited (since then, I've gotten the double cheese, figuring if I'm going to kill myself with cholesterol, I might as well go whole hog) and it was absolutely terrific!! It could have proudly served as a template for hamburgers everywhere. I'm not certain whether I might have on some rare occasion had a burger this good before, but I'm certain I've never had a better one. It was fabulous--juicy, tender and full of flavor. The fries were definitely superior to those found in national chains, and the pineapple milkshake was excellent. I also ordered another side that first time which I can no longer recall with certainty, but it was good as well (perhaps stir-fried veggies). That is another thing this place has going for it--many more choices than you'll find at your national chain (including whole wheat buns to give one the illusion of eating healthy). I sat there, chomping away--lost in a reverie--reveling in the wonderful assault on my taste buds. A throwback to the burger joints of yesterday, only better . . . though without the poodle-skirts. Since I originally wrote this review, a McDonalds has opened its doors in Marshall. If you ever find yourself passing through Marshall, do yourself a favor and pass by the golden arches in favor of the vastly superior fare of the Daisy Queen. I stop by every time I visit Arkansas. You would do well to do the same. read more
