Just got back from an early weekday dinner at Jimmy's -- great time to go! We've been wanting to check this out for a while now since the new ownership came in earlier this year, and we weren't disappointed! Super friendly and accomodating service, with the whole outdoor dining area now spanking clean, with hanging pots of flowers, too. The food was also great! Hubby had one of Jimmy's classic burgers, and I had a Nathan's hot dog with all of the condiments. With the latter, our server graciously cut the dog into thirds because I knew I wouldn't be able to eat the entire dog. Also, the quality of the meat could be tasted in both orders. We also shared a milkshake-of-the-month--blueberry, from a local farm--and hubby added an order of onion rings. I tried the pickle fries a few weeks ago and they were flavorful, perfectly fried, and not greasy at all. The only reason I've given Jimmy's four stars instead of five is that I'd LOVE to have my hot dog bun warmed, just like it's done in NYC and Chicago. The bun wasn't cold, but room temperature. Hopefully this is an easy fix and is doable. However, we will DEFINITELY be back! :) read more

Update- visited here a 3rd time on Sept 9th. My wife ordered the Grilled Chicken Salad (and she loved it), and I ordered the Wild Thing Burger (beef patty & Pastrami w/cheese) I docked Jimmy's one star, because I specified on my order "no tomatoes please"....while I like salsas, Pasta sauces, etc; I detest raw tomatoes on a sandwich or burger. Was so Famished I didn't bother to check when I bit into the burger...and yup, there were two tomato slices. I. removed them, and said nothing besides showing my wife the discarded things in my tray. She let one of the staff know who asked how everything was, and he was very apologetic. All that being said, Jimmy's does in fact deliver a high-quality product. And my burger could only have been better had it not tomato juice and seeds on it that were in fact taste-detected. As always, the place was immaculately clean, and the staff great. read more

Well I ordered entirely to much food... no small portions here. Jimmy's deluxe burger with no tomato. Beef is fresh and flavorful, bun soft but didn't fall apart. Fries are the right thickness with a crispy seasoned exterior, fluffy inside. They give you a spoon with the shake and it stands upright, they're THICK!! The kicker?? Zucchini fries. More like zucchini logs. The batter is perfection. It's not thin or thick but it doesn't fall off or apart with each bite and you can actually bite through the whole thing. Go eat at Jimmy's, you won't be disappointed. Not to mention the staff is super friendly. read more

What a cute find! Classic 50's type drive thru. The staff was so friendly and helpful. While at the menu, the worker helped explain what the specials were. Ordered the chicken little, onion rings. and chili cheese dog. Onion rings were super thick and crispy. Chili cheese dog was enormous and hearty. Hears they had the best milkshakes in the area but I was too full to try them. They gave us a Bazooka gum treat! Loved the decor. Interior was very thoughtful with antique looking pics on the walls. Would visit multiple times if I was in the area. read more

I was craving a good burger fries and shake for lunch. Man did this place deliver, fresh locally sourced beef, crispy edges like a smash burger, but meaty enough to not feel skimped. Meaty bacon! Held together until that last 10 percent that just falls apart and melts into a juicy messy mouthful. Fries were crispy and seasoned perfectly. And the peaches and cream shake? And the peaches are sourced locally! Somewhere between spoonable and sippable. All wrapped with a smiling and fun staff and the definition of a burger and fries atmosphere. To top it off, they threw in a bazooka bubble gum for the perfect after meal nostalgia. Eating here leads to a happy tummy and a smile on your face. Great job guys! read more

Horrible food!! Absolutely disgusting with nothing matching the description of the available foods. Cheeseburger barely had any cheese on it; grilled onions were RAW. Not sure what kind of pickle slices were used; they looked like Dills, but tasted somewhere on the spectrum of sweet/sour, more sweet than anything. Chocolate Shake was thick and chocolate but tasted as if additional sugar had been added to the Chocolate Umpqua Ice Cream. Again, not necessary. Apparently subtlety is not something in use at Jimmy's Classic. Do yourself a favor and spend the money at the grocery store and make your burger at home. You will save money and most likely enjoy your meal much, much more. read more

Great service and good food! Super neat ambiance. We loved the bazooka gum that comes with every meal. read more

The burgers here are insane... I got the Route 66 and it was outstanding! If you like onion rings, this place is a "must stop" on your travels (the fries are outrageously good, too). Justin was our cashier/server, and he was fantastic! Jimmy's is big on nostalgia decor, and they have an outdoor covered patio for larger parties. If you're traveling I-5 near the Rogue Valley, you should definitely stop at Jimmy's in Grants Pass. read more

Excellent food. Especially the milkshakes made with real ice cream. Friendly helpful service. Very clean and decorated nice with great 50's 60's and 70's music in the background. Love the nice outdoor seating on the north side where it's cooler in the summer. read more

I had a pastrami sandwich because I'm very picky about my pastrami. It was a 10 out of 10. Stacked generously, on par with Cartwrights Pastrami but not as expensive. Then I had a regular size hamburger it was so big! The sweet potato fries were crispy and the plus of marshmallow dip was delicious read more

Could not have had a better experience! Stopped in on our way to California from WA! The food was great! But I have to brag on the milkshakes! We got a blackberry milkshake....so delicious! It had the perfect flavor! The sweet potato fries were great and so were the onion rings. The hamburgers were classic! But what really put our experience over the top was the service! Everyone working there is so nice and helpful! Could not recommend enough! And you get the cute drive in vibes! read more

I love their Green Eyed Lady burger! It was super fresh & flavorful. I love how they use thick bacon in the burger & not skimp on the avocado! All the vegetables were plentiful, perfect amount of sauce. Their banana milk shake is A+++++ sooooo good! I think one of the best banana milkshakes I've had! Service was fast, attentive & friendly. They kept coming to ask if we needed any refills or to go boxes (we came as a part of 12) Overall I will definitely be back here when I am in town. read more

You definitely feel like you've transported into the past once you step into this joint. It's a bit eerie, but fun. The burger is juicy and well seasoned. It's one of those wide patties so I would recommend doubling up. They give lots of lettuce ... The onion rings are deep fried to perfection and come out HOT so don't eat them right away because after one bite you won't be able to stop and your mouth will be in pain from the burning but you have to keep going because it's that good. read more

We were staying the night in Grants Pass and had THE best dinner experience. The staff were SO friendly and the food was delicious!! HIGHLY recommend! Especially if you have kids! Everything was just wonderful! 10/10!! read more

Amazing hamburgers and shakes. Love the whole family that owns the place, feels like home

Ordered onion rings with our burgers and it was $6 for only five soggy onion rings. The burgers were decent, but not worth $14 a piece for a La cart burgers. The girls working were friendly and the place was clean. Prob won't return due to the price for value read more

The food is amazing! You want a REAL burger, go here! Nothing "fast food" about Jimmy's. The meat is from Cartwrights (the best in town). Everything is freshly made, friendly folks, and you can drive through or hang out to eat with indoor and outside options. They make the kind of burger you'd expect it to be! read more

Great little burger and hot dog place. Fries were amazing. I had the Lemon pound cake milkshake special and it was heaven. Nice staff here too- they were trying to help us when our car broke down. Highly recommend. read more

What a wonderful experience! Staff was more than helpful and so friendly. I ordered the Green eyed gal I believe it was called and the zucchini fries, everything was so fresh and absolutely delicious. We chose to sit outside, it was very clean and everything that we needed was right there! We will be back. read more

This place was amazing! My partner and I were on a road trip, hungry and looking for a good place to eat. This spot caught our attention because of its "old school" vibe. Inside, it has checkered floors and that classic drive-in feel. There isn't a lot of indoor seating, but there are clean, comfortable picnic tables outside. They also have a drive-thru if you'd rather not get out of your car. The service was great the cashier was pleasant, and the staff who brought out our food were wonderful. One gentleman even came by multiple times to check if we needed anything. My partner got Jimmy's Deluxe and said it was really good and a great portion size. He also ordered fries, which were more than enough for both of us. I got a bacon burger (I can't remember the name), and it was okay. The real stars of the show were the onion rings 10/10, definitely recommend and the mint chip milkshakes. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend this place! read more

The food and service was phenomenal I highly recommend this it is the best place on earth

Classic diner setup with good burgers and fries. Very consistent and yummy. And great service, too.

Stopped here on way to Eugene. Had a few mediocre meals on the way up from San Francisco. This restaurant was really nice surprise. Great old fashioned burgers with all the fixings. The fries were crispy and seasoned perfectly and don't get me started on the special sauce. Yum!!! Will definitely make this a regular stop. And they were super nice. read more

Just love this place! Great service , free refills on drinks and food is great! Nice that they cater to you even after you order to see if you need anything or a refill! I like the piece of Bazoka gum with each order- nostalgic ! read more

Hamburgers were amazing ... love the fries and the banana milkshake is fantastic.... My new favorite shake. Friendly staff and love the ambiance read more

I eat a LOT of burgers. The people here are really nice, great service and the burger was amazing. They even customized it a bit for me. Sweet potato fries were spot on too. Great diner vibe. I'll definitely be back! read more

This is a great place. Fantastic old school burgers. It's very popular here in town. I go everytime I come to town.

Went in to try it after the new owners took over (it was great before too), and the burgers were the best I've had in Grants Pass! The fries were seasoned super well and tasted great too, and I will never complain about their milkshakes! 10/10 will be back often! read more

Just stopped in for a milkshake. It was good, but not 8.50 good, wow! And looking at the menu and the prices, very expensive! I saw some families in there, that must have cost an absolute fortune. read more

This place is great! We stopped in while driving along the river. We had our two dogs with us. They have a clean shaded dog friendly patio- they even brought the dogs ice water and PUP CUPS! needless to say the dogs give two paws up. Very friendly service Nice and clean. They even offered us refills without asking. We had the pastrami sandwich and onion rings. Both were very tasty. Too bad we don't live down here. We would definitely come back again. read more

Great food, great service. Cute 50's diner vibes. Food came out hot, fresh and fast. The owner came out side and went table to table to checked up on all his guests, refilled drinks, and chatted with everyone. We enjoyed the whole experience. Ate too fast to take pics. read more

Forget the In N Out, come here! 50's music playing, happy employees, a patio with misters, an air conditioned inside. Big menu with fresh options (even a veggie burger!) with sandwiches, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches and all the fixings. The Funky Chicken sandwich was delicious- very nice chicken breast, not frozen or deep fried. This place was awesome, it'll definitely be a new stop on an I-5 trip! read more

Excellent food and even better the service! Love the good quality, local meat and always with a smile.

Ok, listen up!..... There are restaurants aka Burger joints that do some things good but, this place does everything good because they genuinely care! Here's my story. My wife, beloved dog and I arrived at Jimmy's Classic Drive-in and ordered a Deluxe, a Doo Wop Burger, Onion rings, Fries, and a Blackberry shake. The burgers were juicy fresh meat deliciousness. The fries were perfect crispness and the onion rings were pure perfection, crisp with a sweetness not to be forgotten!! When our food was delivered I was told my onion rings were not up to par as two of them 'blew up' in the fryer and they quickly brought two additional rings!?? I was somewhat blown away that this burger house cared so much that they wanted to do this!.... Incredible by all semi-fast food standards. Our food was really as good as it gets. We capped it off with the best Blackberry Shake I have ever had....period! To top things off the owner, Taryl made the rounds to ensure his guests were enjoying there meals..... amazing! I was all too glad to share my thoughts....great product, great service, and amazing staff!..... an incredible model of what every food establishment should aspire to be. A big thanks to all at Jimmy's,you deserve it! read more

Jimmy's classic driving this awesome! Great old classic tunes, very friendly and attentive staff and fantastic burgers, fries and shakes.

If you are in grants Pass, you probably already know about this place and if you're passing through the branch pass, you need to check this place out! I drive back-and-forth between California and Portland, I plan my route, so that I am passing through grants Pass during business hours. Love it! read more

Hubby says it's very clean even for the outside, friendly staff. Bathrooms are kept clean. hubby liked the blue bird sandwitch and I had the wild thing with avocado because I can't have cheese. There was enough fires for us to share. For me my burger could have used a little more S & P, but that's my taste buds bc everyone is different. Now we each had a sandwich and 1 set of fries I had a sm ice tea and hubby had the sm shake and the grand total was 47.00 yup, that's right 47. I asked hubby if he would come back and I quote "yes after I get a lone from the bank" other than the price and a bit more seasoning on the burgers or hay put salt and pepper on the tables ‍ the food was ok. Idk if we will go back we will c I guess. ‍ read more

I wish I could give this place 10 stars! My buddy and I recently retired from the Navy and decided to go around and find the best burger place in Grants Pass. Found it. The food is absolutely amazing!!! Every single bite is just as good as the first one. Every time you go there, it's just as good as the first time. The staff is amazing considering that they employ a lot of young people. They are always happy and smiling and popping out of the back to make sure that you have absolutely everything that you need. It's hard to find places around here with grown adults that care as much as these kids do. I absolutely love this place and everything about it. I have told everyone that I could possibly think of that they need to go there and eat. The whole feel of the place makes you miss great service, great people, great food, but happy that you found this little gem of a place. It's always clean and bright and nice inside as well as outside. I can't get enough. If you haven't been here, you're wrong. Fix yourself. -The Navy Guy read more
