Wow! What delicious Pizza! From polite, cheerful, professional service and gladly accommodating the customizations I wanted in addition to quick timing, I am impressed! The pizza's crust was so yu.my and the ingredients were very fresh and cooked just right. I love supporting a local business that is a good value and especially appreciate genuine client service!! Great spot!! Thanks!! It took them 20 minutes to make my pie :), nice! read more

Food was great, just what you would expect from a old drive inn. Loved the fries. I'll be back.

They messed up my wife's order. Not a big deal, she went back with her burger. But Instead of remaking her food, they took her burger and just tossed a few pieces of bacon on it that had been sitting there for a bit and wrapped it back up. So she arrived home with a cold burger and no longer an appetite. Typically the restaurant will just toss the messed up order for sanitary reasons, they will not take the food back. Won't be returning to this location. read more

Bad service and unhelpful staff. Had to wait long time, and food was all wrong, and then took them forever to fix it. Even then they were rude. read more

We have been going to Paul Bunyan for years and don't normally mind paying the a little extra because everything is always delicious. Last night the hamburgers were over cooked to the point where the cheese was non-existent. the patty did not even cover the bun. Very disappointed, we will not be going back. read more

Ok...this place has these amazing cheesy jalapeño potato bites I'm still thinking about 2 months later, so do yourself a favor and don't go there without getting those! Burgers were really good, milkshakes were good. Everyone in my car was happy with their order. Service was great, and wait time was not long at all. I can't wait to go back and get those potato bites! We'll be in the area again soon and you can bet I'll be there :). read more

Food was delicious and cook fresh right in front of me! Little expensive but you want quality you pay a bit more! Take this over McDonald's anytime read more

Service is so bad. Every single time I go there I'm disappointed! I waited over 25 mins yesterday for my food and right at the 20 min mark they came to the window and asked for my receipt because they weren't sure what I ordered. They also charged me $.50 for 1 single piece of lettuce which is absolutely crazy! When they handed me my change it was a mess crumpled and fanned out. Just really not good service and I don't recommend anyone going there. read more

Best shakes EVER! Get the malt, just like the old time shakes as a kid! You won't be disappointed. read more

Paul Bunyan - Best chocolate shakes EVER - Fast Food Near Me - Rathdrum, Idaho

When was the last time you had a malt? By far, rather than making a choice at a closer business, offering the same type of ice cream treats and drive-in food, I would always drive out of the way to have Paul Bunyan make my malt. My particular favorite is a "Chocolate Marshmallow Malt with extra malt." Paul Bunyan shakes and malts are consistently the BEST! Fresh pineapple? Huckleberry? Banana? Even plain vanilla? Every one they make is delicious! They've been making them this way for years! Keep up the great work! read more

Delicious chicken nuggets, tenders & burgers! The best was the huckleberry milk shake! We heard about it when we were still back home in Michigan. Staff was polite and efficient. read more

I think the burgers and fries are better than zips. Always great shakes. And if you're not feeling like any of that then there's always Pizza in the same building which is fantastic also. Great employees. Wish people did more positive reviews. We always think of doing review when we're upset. But we need to spread the word when people are doing a great job. So keep it up Paul Bunyan. read more

I love the homemade pizzas I get from Tara's pizza inside of Paul Bunyan's. The Server Samantha who made my pizza was very friendly and courteous. I will go back for sure. read more

I went there on Monday and ordered a bacon cheese burger, light on the sauce, no tomatoes, extra lettuce. It was for my boyfriend's dinner. The girl at the drive through was initially nice, so I thought. I thought I'll tip because I thought maybe, just maybe, the food would be done the way it was ordered. We'll, guess what it wasn't! There was maybe six strands of shredded lettuce on it. That may sound petty, but with all the bad service in the restaurants around this area, I was annoyed. So I called and the same girl at the drive up answered the phone. I explained to her what happened and at first she was understanding. She suggested that I drive back to the restaurant and they would put more lettuce on the burger. I said I wasn't going to do that and she said well, I don't know what to tell you??? Then she became rude when I told her I wouldn't have left a tip if I new this was going to happen. She said that we, meaning the restaurant, doesn't ask for tips. After that, I asked her for her name and she said she isn't allowed to give out that information. So, I asked her for the manager and she said she was the manager. I had my phone on speaker and my boyfriend heard the whole conversation. He told her we would definitely not be back. When I got off the phone he reminded that this Paul Bunyan hires teenagers and they have been rude on the burger side and the pizza side. That's why we quit coming here. Employers should train their young employees to treat their customers with courtesy! Please!! read more

I can't believe this place is still in business. Not only were the staff confused when asked about menu items they were also rude. Ordered three simple burgers off the menu got those wrong, ordered onion rings nothing but oily scrapes, had to wipe down our own table and swat flies away and then wait an extra 10 minutes for them to fix our order. No thanks. read more

Tried Paul Bunyan today for the first time. So tired of eating at the same places again and again. I got a double bacon cheeseburger. It was good, the bacon was perfect. I added a couple of onion rings to it which made it even better. I also ordered onion rings and I thought they were good, pretty salty, but I don't mind that too much. The coating falls off pretty easy, but that doesn't mean they don't taste good. All in all I'd definitely go again. It's the closest thing to a SoCal "grease pit" that I've had since moving to North Idaho. I think it's a good value for what you get as well. read more

We were driving past and thought about grabbing a personal pizza at Tara's but changed our minds and wanted to try a famous Paul Bunyan burger. HUGE disappointment! I don't know where people got the pictures they posted but our burgers were barely 1/4" thick and cooked very well done. Plus my husband found a couple of pieces of bone in his. Also got some onion rings and they were so burned you couldn't even eat them. We will never be stopping here again nor recommending it to anyone! Horrible! read more

Paul Bunyan - Onion rings - Fast Food Near Me - Rathdrum, Idaho

I tried this burger joint for the first time today to see how they compare to Rogers Burger. I was so impressed that I could not decide which was better. The burger patties were cooked to perfection, salted and peppered perfectly. The cheese was gooey and yummy. The tomato slice was fresh and perfect. The lettuce nice and crisp. The onion and pickles good. And jalapeños delicious. The fries were great as well. I will definitely be back but will try the post falls location next and try some of the other sides to go with my next triple burger with cheese. read more

Paul Bunyan - Triple meat burger and fries. - Fast Food Near Me - Rathdrum, Idaho

Double bacon cheeseburger is amazing! Also great fried pickles! Fresh and good quality

Bacon cheese burger is tasty. Tatar tots are really good! Prices are low! Better than other drive thru options in Rathdrum.

Normally I love this place and wait is worth the tasty food. However today they screwed up my order. I asked for extra pickles on my kids burger and he only got 3, not a big deal. On my double bacon burger I asked for no mayo, extra mustard and extra pickles. I got no pickles, no mustard, the bigger is swimming in mayo and there was only one half a piece of bacon. I asked for onion rings instead of fries, got fries no onion rings. Then to top it off they added an extra fry on our order. So we paid the upcharge for onion rings we didn't get AND paid for an extra fry. We didn't discover this until we got home to eat. When I searched online for an email to send a message to, there is none. This yelp page is listed as their website. Extremely disappointed today. read more

Well...needless to say I use to love Paul Bunyan. My husband and I stopped friday April 21, 2017.. night after our flight..this is what Alan got for $10...what a bunch of crap now....jumbo cheeseburger my butt! Also the shake which was chocolate, had huckleberry all over inside the cup so you know they are not cleaning after its used! What if someone had an allergy!!!! Then the girl threw the change at my husband which fell on the ground and didn't say sorry or anything. While he was trying to get the change she was trying to shove the bag of food at him! Slow down girl!!! This is not acceptable in my book. I use to love you.. but we will no longer be giving you our money. read more

Paul Bunyan - a plate of food and a cup of coffee - Fast Food Near Me - Rathdrum, Idaho

The food and service is excellent! The staff is always friendly and helpful! However there is this one tall skinny girl who kept tripping over things. I think she had a flower name or something. Like petunia? read more

I'm writing this because of all the Paul Bunyan's in the area this Rathdrum location serves a fresh bacon double cheese burger. Yum! It's not sitting around pre-made / then thrown on the grill 90% of the time we are getting what you want in a greasy burger. Most times the bacon is fresh too. Not some hard cooked -yesterday -bacon put on an order. Simple review, the food is very good if it's a burger u want! read more

See all

This is exactly what you expect from an older, well-established, mom-and-pop burger place. The interior is certainly nothing to write home about, and the burger was okay, but nothing special. This place was average all the way around. read more

Normally I use the drive through on the way to Spokane. Today, I went in because I wanted fries also and didn't want to make a mess in the car. Their basic cheeseburger is quite good, and the Double Whammy was a double cheese burger served in 2 big slider like buns. Great taste, and I love the shredded lettuce. If you order the large fries, buckle up. It was double the size I was expecting. Great fry sauce too. I love independent burger places, and this one is my favorite in the area. You won't be disappointed. read more

Wow. Horrible service. I Just tried to pull through tonight to grab food for my family. While I love the fact they hire young workers they need some serious customer service training. Scott, I believe you are the manager...your front of house staff this evening just before closing was horrible. They didn't lock the doors and upon entry the young lady told me to leave and go through the drive through (on my bike) because she forgot to lock the door. I asked if I could simply tell them what I would like to order and pick it up at the window because they were closing the lobby. She said no and to go out out to the drive through...I wasn't sure if the window clerk could use the microphone due to the lack of weight being on a bike so waited patiently behind one car to put my order in at the window. Upon getting there now with two cars behind me and 2 minutes before closing he started an argument with me about putting in an order and eventually told me he wouldn't take my order. And yes you were still open with two more orders behind me. Frusting given the fact that I rode my bike over to grab burgers for my family in the cold. I wasn't even angry just trying to order some food and wait patiently. Please don't hesitate should you have any questions (Scott), but the young man at the window was a real piece of work. Not a local small business friendly experience. Albeit it should be and certainly used to be been going there for years. read more

Best shakes in town! We all loved the huckleberry ice cream too! Lots of ice cream for a great price!

Took forever to get our food because obviously picking up trash outside is more important than customer service.

Yum yum and yum! Service tends to be slow, but they make it after you order it, I don't mind waiting! Burgers and shakes ROCK

One of the all time best small town burger chains in existence! Their milkshakes are hand made to frothy perfection and the fries are never soggy. This place is a must if you're ever in North Idaho. read more

Very cheap, seems to be a nice local lunch spot. Good place to experience Rathdrum culture.

Terrible customer service. Went through and ordered $30 worth of food. Didn't get the correct burgers. Didn't get a fry for one of the meals, and completely didn't get my kids meal. When called to ask to return what we got for what I actually paid for they wouldn't do it. Rude employees, won't be returning and will make sure everyone we know, knows about our BAD experience. read more

IF you love yourself, dont ever eat here. OCT 8 2017. 3 pm. We did drive thru. Savannah took our order. Ordered 2 bacon cheese burgers, large onion rings , 1 nugget and a small fry. Excited it was our first time would find out later it would be our last time. The burger buns were flattened, lettuce only covered half the burger, what they called bacon was actually just pieces of fat. BURGERS thrown away. The large Onion rings came in a grease soaked bag, it was grilled onions with bread crumbs . THIS is wear we tried our kids nuggets which looked over cooked, tasted like onions and fish. They use the same fryer for everything. VERY concerning. THE FRY GUY DOES NOT DESERVE A PAYCHECK. We ended up throwing the whole order in the garbage. We live half hour from this location in Rathdrum IDAHO. Garbage crew makes garbage food. How is this place even open?. Should have read the reviews.. Take it from a father of 5, go to Mc DONALDS. Less grease and better quality than this place. Yes , that BAD. Whoever said this is a way to experience rathdrum culture is an idiot and clearly did not eat here read more
