I was stopping for a Raspberry Shake after an interesting series of soccer games in DePue. I made my order, and their person who was making all the soft serve, shakes, sundaes, and what not, got to mine in around 5 minutes. By the way, as I pulled in, the drive through was SLAMMED with cars blocking the parking lot there were so many. There was constant work going on, and everyone of the staff was cheerful and helpful.

We had burgers and milkshakes that were solidly good and really hit the spot as we were stopping here along the way home from a long road trip. What really sets this place apart is the service! Everyone here was so friendly - and even though this is very much a "local" spot we felt completely welcomed. When they found out that we were from out of town they immediately asked us if we wanted a picture outside with Papa Burger and one of the waitresses enthusiastically led us outside for photos. This is exactly what you want from a small town root beer stand - a homey vibe, great food and friendly service!!

Just a heads up that it is a cash-only spot, though they do have an ATM on-site if you need it. The service was quick and incredibly polite from start to finish. Food-wise, the burger was fairly plain but was cooked well, and the fries had a great texture and crunch even if they were a bit bland on seasoning. The side salad was essentially just chopped lettuce, but it was noticeably crisp and fresh. Overall, it is a fun, nostalgic pit stop with friendly service if you are looking for a quick bite.

Omg! If you like an Italian beef sandwich, this is the place to go. As a former Chicagoan, a place…read moreknown for its beef sandwiches, I will admit to being a beef sandwich snob, so I am always hesitant to eat one locally because it usually disappoints. Not this time! The Igloo italian beef not only matched but beat any one I have ever had. The beef was tender, the football shaped bun was toasted to perfection as well as the cheese on top and the au jus wasn't salty and had great flavor. It was the perfect addition to the sandwich. A great glass of root beer topped off the meal. While the price is in the higher side it was worth every penny. Igloo, when I get a hankering for an Italian beef sandwich, you are my new go to. Go try one, you will not be disappointed.

This may have been the biggest and most pack grilled cheese I've ever had. The hamburger was good but the potatoes that came with it stole the show.
