    **MY EXPERIENCE:** Upon approaching Jumpin' Jack's Drive-In, we were greeted by a sizable crowd, confirming its status as a must-visit destination for both locals and tourists alike. My wife ordered fried fish planks, while I opted for a cheeseburger with barbecue. For her, onion rings followed, and I chose french fries. Post-meal, we indulged in their exceptional ice cream, a highlight of the experience. This establishment is a cornerstone near New York, offering a quintessential dining experience. **HISTORY & CONTEXT:** Jumpin' Jack's Drive-In boasts a storied past, serving as a beloved staple in the New York area since its inception. The drive-in's enduring popularity is a testament to its commitment to quality and community engagement. Known for its iconic menu and vibrant atmosphere, it attracts visitors year-round, providing a nostalgic escape into American diner culture.

    Adorable, old-school, and somehow still cheap in this America an actual unicorn. The food was simple American food but actually delicious. If you drive past without stopping, that's a personal failure and that's on you.

    Nice day to enjoy a great fish fry and onion rings from Jumpin Jacks. Customer service always pleasant and quick with placing orders. Plenty of parking available with a nice view of the lake or park. Before leaving don't forget a banana split sundae. Definitely be back.

    This spot was recommended by my friend who I was visiting for the weekend. The place gets super packed with a nice line through the parking lot at times. I guess it's just that good or a real hit in this town. If you've ever been to the flagship Shake Shack location in Madison Square Park, it's essentially that kind of style where you wait to order from an outdoor window and they'll give you everything on a tray once finished to be brought down to the cashier, where you can order drinks and pay up. I tried two different things. First thing I consumed was the Clam Fry ($5.00), which was basically fried clams put on a toasted hot dog bun. There was too much fried clam (not complaining) to be eaten all at once on a hot dog bun, but after picking at it and adding tartar sauce, it was a great way to start the meal. The other item I got was a Jackburger ($6.75), which is a double with cheese, served with three buns, and cole slaw on top. Simple yet filling. All of this with a drink for under $20 is not bad at all.

    I live outside of town but have been coming here since I was little. I visited years after and I STILL love it. This place is great and the ambiance is laid back and relaxing. You wait in line, order, and sit yourself on any number of outdoor picnic tables (very smooth, good quality tables). All seating is outdoors but there pavilions to protect from rain. I highly recommend the jack burger, it really is the best. The employees here work so hard and are good at servicing their customers. Next door, there is an ice cream shop where you can get soft serve (along with different types). After, take a walk in the beautiful park right next to door. This is a great restaurant. A+ There's a river off to the side where they sometimes do water ski shows (ramp in water) btw

    Last night we had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Vice and Virtue…read more From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this restaurant takes pride in what they do. The owners were there the entire evening, personally overseeing everything and checking on our table several times to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. That level of care and attention is something you don't find everywhere. The menu is incredible, with so many tempting options that I already know I'll have to come back multiple times to work my way through it! Everything is made fresh from scratch, and you can truly taste the difference. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Salad, and it was so good that I completely forgot to take a picture before digging in! To drink, I had not one, but TWO Razzleberry Sparkling Lemonades, made with Tito's Handmade Vodka, lemonade, muddled blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries, topped with Prosecco. They were absolutely delicious and dangerously easy to drink! Two of my friends ordered Mojitos, and they were beautiful, refreshing, and looked absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the Shrimp Ravioli, and in his words, it was "excellent" and trust me, he's not easy to impress when it comes to food! He finished his meal with the tiramisu, which was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect ending to the evening. Two of our friends enjoyed the Shepherd's Pie. It was originally intended as a St. Patrick's Day special, but it became so popular that they've added it to the regular menu permanently. After hearing the rave reviews at our table, I can see why! Another friend ordered the Slammin' Piggy Tacos and couldn't stop talking about how good they were. Our other friend had the Jerk Shrimp Tacos and loved those as well. For dessert, I chose the Chocolate Pie, which was absolutely delightful and the perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. One thing I especially appreciated was how accessible the restaurant is. It is completely handicapped accessible, which can sometimes be difficult to find, and there is a convenient parking lot right next door that makes getting in and out easy. If you're looking for fresh, homemade food prepared by local owners who genuinely care about the quality of every dish they serve, you need to check this place out. We left happy, full, and already talking about what we'll order on our next visit. We'll definitely be back soon because there are still so many items on the menu I can't wait to try!

    This place brings back so many fond childhood memories. My husband and I stopped in for lunch, and…read moreI was instantly flooded with memories of going here back in high school to visit friends who were working and helping them scoop ice cream and clean. It is still as cute inside as it used to be. The staff was just as welcoming. We ordered eggplant fries and Sandwiches. The sandwiches were both very good but the true winner was the Eggplant Fries. They were thick, with a soft interior and super crunchy exterior. The dipping sauce was excellent. I would recommend these to anyone and can not wait to go back for more.

    Attn: This review is based on food items and NOT on their Ice Cream…read more Stopped by at 3:00 for a late lunch with a book club friend. I ordered a Fish Fry and Cole Slaw. Fish Fry-- It was thin and long; it overflowed the bun. It was fried to a crispy, golden level. Ok so far. However, it tasted like a big, cheap fish stick. Also, it tasted pre frozen. The coating pulled away from the thin piece of fish since it was not freshly breaded. Did not finish it. The fish fry was not tasty or enjoyable when compared to Ted's or many other places. Surprise: The cocktail sauce was very good. Tangy. The large portion of Cole Slaw also disappointed. It was fresh but had zero flavor! Was it moistened with a diluted mayo and nothing else? My guess is Yes. I did not finish it. My friend ordered the fries which were good and what you typically get. Her burger was mediocre. Service was a five. I was even offered a cup of ice water without asking. Dairy Circus sells ice cream which probably is good and a big seller. Since it is located directly across from Scotia Glenville HS, it must get business from teens.

One of the reasons…read moreI kept putting it off was because I thought the menu didn't look much different from the typical pub fare in the area. But after eating there I found they have curated their own unique versions of the classics. We started with an order of 3's company wings which was a mixture of buffalo, garlic parm, and lemon pepper sauces. The sauce was pretty good but I like my wings crispy and these were not. For dinner I got the Backstage burger and upgraded to poutine fries. Now I'm not the biggest fan of a traditional poutine but I wanted to try it anyway because it looked good. The burger was cooked perfectly and the beef they use is very good. The poutine fries were enormous and apparently only half the size of a full order. If you like poutine you'll probably be into them but I thought the gravy was a little thick and not that flavorful and the cheese curds didn't melt as much as I would have liked. The real sleeper hit though was the Mac & Cheese. I wasn't expecting anything special and was pleasantly surprised. Definitely would come back for that. When we showed up it wasn't too busy but they were full by the time we left and I got the feeling that reservations are preferred.
