Good things: cool environment, good shakes, got food fairly quick, good prices Bad things: Employees are not welcoming, food was extremely underwhelming ( the deluxe burger was not anything special , fries were unsalted, used chicken tenders instead of a chicken patty in the chicken sandwich, and they forgot our fries and were rude when we asked about them. read more

My husband and I had the corn dog and chicken tenders, and it made us very ill...................

This place is the ultimate greasy spoon drive-in, sort of like a 1950's car hop drive-in but without the hops. All kinds of cool model cars of all eras along the outside area windows, its quite a display. Along with hot rod art on the walls, this joint is an old school drive up experience. With the summer season the ice cream and drinks window (outside) seems to always have a few people in line to several waiting. There are two windows for service, the outside serves ice creams and drinks only, the inside service counter/window serves burgers, fries and other foods along with the outside choices. This place has great shakes and malts, and soft serve ice cream options. You can get pretty much any flavor of shake or malt that you can imagine and they use the real ingredients to make them, ie; a strawberry shake has real strawberries in it. Cones, splits, sundaes, etc are some of the choices. The burgers are okay - the jumbo cheeseburger is pretty good, the fries are mediocre to fair and small - there were not very many fries(less than 20) with the $10 combo I ordered on my last visit. My wife got the deluxe cheeseburger and she said it was about the same, and looking at it - it looked small, again this is a decent greasy spoon eatery - not great but good. There is a small sitting area at the inside counter with a few tables and chairs, along with a rail counter with bar stools, as well as several picnic tables with benches outside. Plenty of parking in front as well as a street row for parking your hot rod. All in all, we stop here mostly to grab a shake from the outside window - they are great. The other soft serve ice cream options all look equally as good. They get a 4-4.5 star rating. The burgers and such get a 2.5-3 just average for drive-in food. I give them a solid 3.5 and rounded up for the great shakes and cool scenery. Worth a stop for an ice cream treat, may be hit or miss for you on the food. 00298 read more

Very Good Food! There ice cream chocolate dipped cone is a classic to get! Just wish this place was open 24/7 tho.. that would be cool.

Customer service was okay. The food was... not something to write home about. They forgot to give us the burger we ordered. Extremely greasy so if that's your thing... just check the bag before you leave. read more

Love their dipped cones! Always a line to order but definitely worth the wait! Great family ice cream joint!!! read more

Fresh Freeze Drive-In - Awesome ice cream!!!' - Burgers Near Me - Eureka, California

Food was fast and good. Not a lot of dinning area but it was worth it in decor and nostalgia! Planning on coming back later and getting a Shamrock Milk shake!! read more

Decent but nothing to write home about. I liked the look of the place and had never gotten around to trying it, so today I decided to check it out. There's seating for maybe 12 at 4 person tables (so there are about 3 tables) and then a narrow "bar" type counter against the wall with several more seats. The space is a bit cramped. Just order at the register and they call you up when it's ready. I got a bacon cb combo (includes fries and drink) for a bit under $10. You get one refill on sodas. My food was ready in about 5 minutes. The burger was smaller than I was hoping for. Even with all the veggie fixins it was about the size of a Whopper Jr, and only a shade bigger than a 99 cent McD burger and I could easily palm it. Thankfully it tasted pretty good, but it was just gone in a few bites. The fries were so-so. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. Slightly thicker than the ones you find at chains. No seasoning. They were lukewarm and it gave the impression that they'd been done and sitting for a while. Standard condiments and a cup of ranch for no extra charge. Not overwhelmingly good, just.....whelmingly. Yes, I was just whelmed. read more

Fresh Freeze Drive-In - Looks pretty cool from outside. There's a window to the left specifically for shakes / ice cream which is probably what they do best. - Burgers Near Me - Eureka, California

This place needs better employees! It's taken an hour to get my food only to be told I have to now wait for my banana split and after waiting several minutes for that I was then told that the fish and chips I ordered was not made and I would have to wait for that. So now the rest of my food is cold (two burgers and two orders of onion rings which took an hour to make). What a sh*t show. read more

Great hamburgers and fries w/Fry sauce, Great milkshakes and Sundays, good place to eat and fast service

The service here is so kind and friendly! There were A LOT of cranky people demanding a lot from the staff working here with very little patience for those serving them and everyone working here handled each customer so professionally and kindly. Every person who works here deserves some kind of a raise for what I witnessed them deal with. If you're in the area, stop by for a dipped soft serve cone or a burger with fries! 10/10 would recommend. Unless you're going to come in like a cranky, impatient shadow of a person in which case it might be best if you stay home and rethink some things. read more

I love Fresh Freeze! Been coming here since 07! This place definitely needs later better hours though or 24/7 or something!

Pulled up to Fresh Freeze with my son for a late night cone. Immediately once we arrived and before I was even able to get my son out of the car a lady tan out yelling " WE'RE CLOSED ". It was 8:51 you guys still have 9 minutes that you're listed as open, and it was a bit embarrassing to be yelled that in the parking lot before we even walked up to the building. My son enjoyed the McDonald's cone for 99¢ just as good. read more

Phone off the hook for hours ...waited forever for food to get it cold.ordered the fish and chips which came with some microwavable fish no sauce lemon or nothing... ordered chilli dog which had a tea spoon of chilli what a joke!!!! read more

We waited for 45 minutes only to find out they lost our ticket. Waste of time and money. We will not be returning. The system was disorganized. read more

We only stopped here for dessert, but it was a cute place with a good old fashioned hamburger stand feel. They offer the standard soft-serve cones (dipped or regular), shakes, sundaes, banana splits and floats. My only complaint is that it was slow, but that's because there was only one person working on the 'soda fountain' side. It was fine because we weren't in a hurry, and I felt bad for the poor lady. She remained calm and friendly despite the never-ending line and the fact that she was alone. We'd definitely visit this place again (and kudos to them for being the only ice cream place open past 6pm). read more

One of those places that if you want an excellent burger and perfect chocolate-dipped soft serve, this is the place! Ordering during the lunch rush was annoying but the Humboldt Burger and dipped ice cream was definitely worth the wait and any frustrations! By the way, the Humboldt Burger has 2 patties, bacon and all the fixings - basically one of the best burgers my burger-loving husband has ever had! read more

Great drive-in. Highly recommend the patty melt. It is really good. Only get the long dog if you are really hungry...it is big & very good. The soft serve ice cream cones are huge. Didn't get one this time but they were really eye popping large. Had to go back before we left town for the softserve. Really yummy. Vanilla with chocolate dip is great. The chocolate soft serve is really very good too. read more

3 stars for the zucchini! 5 bucks for 10 small soggy zucchini sticks was a waste of money.... otherwise the service was great... and everything else was okay read more

Took my kids here and they loved it! The wait is sort of long, but someone I know suggested calling your order in even if you plan to eat there. The ice cream was definitely my favorite! read more

Great tasting burgers and ice cream at an old-timey food stand. Indoor seating is closed because COVID-19 but outdoor tables are great on a sunny afternoon. read more

I waited 30 minutes for food, had to go up and ask for my order .very rude.need better training

it used to be that you could walk up and order an ice cream. Now you have to go inside and stand behind everybody ordering burgers as well just to get your ice cream! It really sucks lousy service! read more

We enjoy this place! The malts are delicious. Food does take a little while to get but it's always been good as well. The last two times we came the girl up front seemed new, but the staff is always extremely nice as well as the manager. I changed my order after paying and sitting down and the manager was really nice and accommodating. read more

I wish this place was actually a drive in. If I didn't have to get out of my car it would make up for the food. It's basically fast food and isn't very tasty. The fries are bland af. The sodas are always flat and extremely tiny. The service here is almost always great though, whoever was working yesterday later in the afternoon (glasses) at the inside ordering area is my favorite, 10/10 service. read more

I didn't care for the burgers much, the fish was a bit better. I wouldn't go there for the food, the milkshake was pretty good. If I was only rating them on the desserts I would have to give them another star. read more

Fucking sucks. Just run. Terrible service, terrible food. Runnnn. Rude on the phone ordering, food terrible , just run

Being a local, fresh freeze has been on my radar for 45 years. Sad to see it hit the bottom. The last 3 visits the orders have not been right, mayo on the burger after we asked for no mayo and it was written that way on the wrapper. Re-fry the fries because they got cold? Thanks for the extra grease. The cook(?) didn't have a net on his beard. Actually called tonight when we got home with our to-go order that took 30 minutes for 2 burgers and fries. The supervisor was very rude..."Drive back tonight or just deal with it". Are you kidding? Overpriced and underserved. Not coming back,ever. read more

It's 7:00 pm and fresh freeze isn't busy I just stopped in for ice cream, the girl waiting on me was so lacking in personality, not once did I get a thank you. I was standing by my car waiting for my sundae and the window opened up and she set it outside and closed the window. I can get that same customer service at McDonald's for a lot less, everyone says shop mom and pop but I'm paying more and not getting anything for it. read more

Seeing that I made the choice to revisit my old college eateries, I figure it is a 4-er, or a 3-er. Actually I found the burger still pretty good. Just a plain cheese burger with lettuce and tomato and light mayo is the way I like it. You can get a double, but not for me today. Considering I just had an Inn-N-Out a few days ago, I'd rate this a better burger. Not a big burger, but tasty and freshly made, met my likes, Haven't been back for awhile, so the place hasn't changed much. Seemed cleaner today. Service is not speedy because they cook to order. Still no rest rooms. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night and they were quite busy. I tried the spicy sriracha burger and it was great! I was impressed by their portion sizes compared to their prices. Tonight, person after person seemed to be crankier than the last and the two people working the counter managed to keep their cool and were extremely friendly. The best service I've ever received at a burger joint ever, and a delicious burger to boot! read more

Used to be a great place to grab a burger/fries. What happened? Ordered a deluxe cheeseburger and onion rings. Burger was so thin (1/4 inch) I couldn't taste it. The bun was so small, to accommodate the the small burger, cold and the cheese was not melted. Pickles were good. Shakes are still good. Too bad. Used to be my close to home, go to place. read more

Tried to call my order in, got put on hold, or the phone sat down, spent 15 minutes listening to random conversation about this and that, hung up tried to call back, surprise! It busy...20 min later when I walk in and tell them i was on hold, and the line is still busy, they giggle of and say oh sorry..., not the first time it's happened, phone, and customer service kinda sucks, but for some reason I still come back... read more

Love the milkshakes! Especially the banana one I've been here a couple times and have gotten the veggie burger which really is nothing special but still very yummy. Food is always out fast. They've been having some construction going on, and I've been missing their food read more

Burgers are good. Zucchini is good. Not a fan of the fries (greasy) or mozzarella sticks. Love the old school feel and look of the place. read more

Can't go wrong with the Humboldt comb!! Great tasting burger every time I've been there.

I placed an order for a combo burger. I asked the fries be crisp, and a cherry coke, no ice. Took my order home. The burger was cold and overcooked, the fries limp, and the coke was full, full of ice. Fresh Freeze used to be a very good place to get a burger. They used to be tasty. The person taking orders never once smiled. She was grouchy. This is not the first time I have had a bad experience with Fresh Freeze. The food has gone downhill from thirty-forty years ago. read more

This is the first time eating her in years And I did not disappoint. I love to come in here for the cones and shakes, but the burgers were off the hook good. read more

Do not come here if really hungry and or don't have an hour to wait.. I been waiting 40 mins since ordered and still waiting on food they def need to do something about being able to handle a rush that I'm sure happens every afternoon. This wait time is crazy for a supposedly fast food diner don't know who has this kind of lunch time frame to make back to work waiting almost an hour for food! read more

They're shakes and sundae flavors are amazing. We had strawberry, banana, and black raspberry, highly recommend!
