My experience wasn't that great at this place. Service was poor and we felt rushed to eat. The food wasn't that great and I could've gone somewhere else and had a better burger and fries. It's too bad as this place has been here for a while and I would really like to support local but I just didn't have a good time. The inside is nice and cozy but it wasn't as clean. read more

The food was absolutely delicious. The hot cakes are huge and taste delicious. I had the country fried steak and it was delightful. My son felt like lunch and they had plenty of burgers to choose from. We will absolutely be coming back! Oooo and they have crushed ice. What more could you need? read more

Had a wonderful sandwich to go. Ordered an egg and bacon on toast. The egg was not too dry or rubbery and they loaded up with three pieces of bacon. It was an excellent sandwich. read more

Order at the counter, have a seat of your choice and they bring your food to your table. I had the shrimp dinner: fried shrimp, a HEAP of fries, Cole slaw and a biscuit. It was very good. My friend had a double burger with cheese, cheese fries and lemonade. He couldn't eat the entire burger, which is very unusual for him. No complaints from either of us. This is not a "fancy" place - it has a bit of an old-fashioned feel to it. Credit card payments add 3%. Good place to take the kids. read more

The food was absolutely horrendous went in today and had lunch. We ordered a double cheeseburger shrimp basket and cheese fries. Literally nothing had any flavor at all. The coleslaw tasted like water the fries had zero salt just tasted like cardboard. The cheeseburger tasted like a dirty grill no seasoning at all also the place was dirty and gross you could see the grease stains on the old 1970s shag blinds. When I had brought this up to the young lady working at the counter she just said "sorry" didn't really seemed like she cared I will NOT be going back there! read more

First time eating here, the food was real good. I love open faced chili burgers, they don't carry them. But they do have delicious homemade chili and hamburgers, so I made my own. Their chili is very good. Can't wait to eat here again soon. read more

Pete's Drive In - Chili + hamburger = chili burger. - Fast Food Near Me - Wentzville, Missouri

Was on my way to Hannibal for a trip and stopped by Pete's for dinner on a Friday. They make a pretty good bacon double cheeseburger and onion rings. The patty's were big and delicious and the ingredients were fresh and didn't taste processed at all. The tomato in the burger was so good I'd bet it was a garden tomato instead of a store bought. The onion rings were huge, plentiful and crispy. They had a fish Friday platter which seemed tempting to try but the burger I had was great! Being how there's no In-n-Out in Missouri this is the kind of mom and pop burger joint I like to go to and support instead of the other big chains. read more

Great family owned diner with great breakfasts and lots of other options (we mostly go here for breakfasts). read more

I had a terrible experience when I visited this place. I was not greeted. The cashier ignored me, never asked if I needed help or if I was ready to order. I will not be back. I see that they favor a specific group of people. Smh read more

Pete's drive in is very good, you get slightly more than you expect going into it. The burger was fantastic, I wish I got a little extra onion,tomato and lettuce on it though. The salad was not good. Cheesy fries were great. Service was good food came out quick. The atmosphere of it is like an old diner. 7.3/10 read more

If you're looking for a place to turn back the clock....Pete's Drive In may just be it! On the edge of downtown Wentzville, Mo is Pete's 1960s style curb service and inside dining classic. On a cold February day we stopped here for a soda and hamburger and loved the authentic retro architecture. The fireplace in the center of a table is also unique....and perfect to warm up! Our burgers and ice cold glass mugs of soda hit the spot! read more

Make sure you bring your home cooked hungry face. It's a laid back place that you order and pay at the front register. Good portions, cook knows how to cook eggs. The interior isn't going to impress anyone but the food makes up for it. read more

The Ambiance is okay. The place is an old A&W Root-beer restaurant. The service was okay. I ordered my burger and they brought it to me. I had a double burger, fries and bbq beans. The fries and beans were okay. However the burger was one of the worst burgers I've ever had. The meat was rubbery and tasted bad. The bun was soaked in grease. I took one bite and threw it in the trash. This place is a tradition and I guess regulars get accustomed to the place. As for me I'm sorry I came and will count my visit as a bad experience never to return again. read more

I live these old style of diners for sure!! Pete's has been there for ever and we finally went there for breakfast with our breakfast club! Really it's just four of us older dudes having an excuse to eat breakfast out. The food was great!! Portions were big, but not over kill. It's all orders ala cart but still worked out to be about the same price of a lot of places that group it together. The food came out quick and was great. I didn't expect them to bring it to us or to refill coffee like they did, but they did and it was great! The large milk was actually large and cold too! We'll be back! read more

Take a trip back in time at this joint! From the outside, I wasn't expecting much but as soon as we walked into this restaurant I knew the food had to be good and there's a reason they've been around this long. You get an immediate sense of welcomeness as soon as you walk in the door we were greeted by several different staff with smiles. There was seriously nothing better than having the opportunity to eat your dinner around the center table that surrounded a lit fireplace. read more

See all

Great atmosphere and food. The service was good and the wait time was normal for what we ordered.

The food is microwaved food and undercooked. Fries were so underdone and didn't even finish our main entree. Lived in Wentzville awhile and have been waiting to try it, very disappointed. The only plus was the ambiance of the booths, wooden interior, and fireplace. read more

Get the biscuits and gravy and you'll see. Apparently I need to add more words? Friendly environment and great service!

love the fried chicken, I could eat here once a week for the chicken, service is very friendly, home town goodness, havent tried anything else because I'll get my chicken try it you wont be disappointed! read more

Pete's Drive In - a table with drinks and a fireplace - Fast Food Near Me - Wentzville, Missouri

Substandard food. Go ahead and eat there if you want hair in your food and with teenagers running the place. Floors under tables were filthy as well. read more

RUDE, RUDE, RUDE!!! I wish I could give negative stars... I know the cashier has been there forever and feels secure in her job position but dog gone can you be a little nice?! She is SO UNFRIENDLY & down right RUDE!! Makes you want to never go there ever again!!!! This is not our first time there but the root beer floats are amazing so we tried again. This time is ABSOLUTELY the last time!! My double cheese burger was served with some kind of mystery meat and I barely made it home. I got soooo sick! So do yourself a big favor and skip this place or you'll be in store for a rude witch at the counter and it goes down hill from there!! read more

This place is classic. I wish it were open more days of the week. It's a true landmark of Wentzville.

I've lived in Wentzville for 22 years, and I finally went there last Friday for a "tremendous" retro cheeseburger. If I live another 22 years, I won't go there again. The double cheeseburger was just two frozen patties that had the texture of rubber hockey pucks. The french fries, while hot and not greasy, tasted as if they had been fried in old, stale, oil. The cole slaw tasted like it came out of a 5 gallon bucket. The ladies behind the counter were friendly, funny, although not meaning to be, and were very loud. And the place was incredibly expensive. I had the double cheese burger basket with a medium iced tea, and the bill was $16.10!!! I couldn't even eat half of my meal. I like the venue, but i won't be back. There are better places to eat. read more

Rough. Rough place, rougher food. I was thoroughly disappointed. Ordered hamburger fries and a vanilla shake. 1/5 for shake and burger. 2/5 for the fries. read more

We love little hole in the walls so we had to check this place out hoping it was similar to Carl's Drive in. Only similarity is that they both service burgers, fries, and root beer. Ordered two double bacon cheeseburgers. We were not expecting them to be so big, but I still ate all of it. Had an extra piece of bread in the middle and a special sauce which was delightful. Nothing spectacular in regards to the food, but we enjoyed our overall experience and I'm full. Worth the trip. read more

First of all, I know it doesn't matter what i write here, it won't affect their steady customers. The only thing worse than their quality of food is the quality of their service. The food is oily, greasy and rubbery. I got a hamburger and the bottom bun was soaked with grease. I asked for another bun and it was like I insulted them. The counter person is rude, rushes you and is dismissive. A lady, waiter walked around and refilled drinks of people she knew by name. We were ignored. Before we left my wife went to the restroom. She had to wait cause it was occupied. Then a kitchen worker came out of the restroom blowing cigarette smoke into the air. I'm amazed this place is still in business. But, like I said, their long time customers won't care what I write. read more

Probably time to close their doors. Servers are young uninterested slackers who could care less about their customers but paid lots of attention to their phones. Order was wrong 100% of the time. Signature sauce was sour. Restaurant was dirty. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

This place is a total throwback to the past of Wentzville as a hard scrabble railroad and manufacturing town; clientelle and all. The gravely voiced lady who takes the orders has the charm of a cactus, but that's part of the charm of the place. Nothing has changed in this place inside since it was built as an A&W Restaurant in the 60s. You can sit around the faux firepit on a chair, at the counter, or in one of the many well worn brown vinyl booths. It came in at about $10.50 for a Double Cheeseburger, Fries, Cole Slaw, and a root beer which they make on site. I thought that seemed like a lot as I paid for the order, then I got my burger, nicely topped with lettuce and tomatoes, and was HUGE! Seriously, this is the best burger in St. Charles County; the kind of burger you'd expect to get at an old fashioned 60s drive in like this. Fries were decent, although they have cheap, off brand ketchup that's kinda funky. Slaw wasn't the greatest but was decent, but its worth four stars for the burger and root beer alone. read more

Fresh hot food and root beer tastes like the old A&W. Great fried chicken and fish plates. They also have great breakfast foods. I especially like the fried egg and bacon sandwich. read more

This is the place to be especially if you want to experience the good old days. Food cooked to order and delivered to you. Try the tenderloin sandwich. Good stuff. Cheap fast breakfast and time to visit with the regulars. Bottomless cup of good coffee at served hot at your table. read more

We order lunch from Pete's often and have them cater our luncheons...We Luv Pete's.. the girls are nice, the food is always great and Pete will sometimes deliver to us....Good, wholesome food......Thanks always from GM Stamping Plant! read more

Pete's is a classic! Daily specials that feature a variety of different items. The tenderloin sandwich is about the best ever......and the double cheeseburger and fries can't be beat!

love it sooooooooooo much i love it a lot it's a really good restaurant i have thirteen characters left

This was without question the worst dining experience of my life. It was worse than the school lunch burgers. I was driving through town and elected to try a local business over another chain restaurant. I made a bad decision. Ended up walking away unwilling to eat it and ended up at a chain restaurant we drove by the first time. read more

Been here several times. All meals are delicious. Very good breakfast lunch and dinner! But every time we go for breakfast we get terrible service ! Last one was bad probably won't go back now especially for breakfast. Was greeted by a crabby server she seem frustrated that another customer walked in. And she asked for order then in the middle of us saying what she wants walks away and starts doing other things She cleans all the tables gives others coffees and comes back to counter and chats w cooks still ignoring us. Should have left at this point but my husband loves the food here so we patiently waited till we became someone worth seeing. But after that day I doubt either of us be back. Shame it's great food. But the servers make u want to stay away read more
