Excellent burgers and fries! This is our go-to for food, on the road, while traveling from East to West of the mountains while on hyway 2. The burger patty is thin and you have to pay extra for tomatoes but the flavor is spot on and we keep coming back. read more

You may think this us a Dive but don't judge a book by its cover. Awesome food, service and best fries I have had in a long time!

The food is good Very good Super good Yummy The flurry's are good so it the ice cream read more

We usually always stop by when visiting Wenatchee and love their burgers. However they've changed their beef patties this last time we stopped in. The patties were thin, seemed like they had fillers, not all beef, very processed, had kind of a sticky pasty texture and not good flavor at all. The fries were still delicious but we won't go back again as the burger patties were worse than McDonald's read more

My fave burger drive-in! We stop there every time we are driving back from Chelan or Wenatchee. So yummy!

Been here many times but it has been a while. WTF happened. The burgers were disgusting. Not beef, super thin. My husband and I were very disappointed. This place isn't cheap either. No way we will ever go back to this place read more

Who ever was the girl with black hair wearing a snoop dogg shirt needs to get her act together. I was at the counter and waiting for someone to take my order and I see a girl with yellow hair and the girl with black hair vaping next to the sink. When I knocked at the window she saw me, put her vape away, marches at the window and growls at me, telling me to never knock at the window and I tried to tell her I was there for 10 minutes trying to get her attention and she just keeps on yapping. Before I left I saw the girl who yelled at me at the grill with no gloves bopping her head to some loud music. I got my poorly made burger with no sauce and the patty was very dry. I don't know what she needs to work on. her attitude or brushing her yellow teeth. I understand if she had a bad day but there's no reason to lash out on the customers. read more

It's been a while since I've visited Rusty's in Cashmere. Since I just moved to town I thought I'd give it a try again. For just under $10, I got a deluxe cheeseburger, small fries, and a tartar. A little pricey but thought it would be worth it. I was wrong. One would think at 2:30 in the afternoon they would make me some fresh fries, especially given that the sign at the order window asks you for patience because everything is made-to-order. Cold, stale tasting french fries. No salt to the fries and none in the bag. Deluxe cheeseburger was ok but lacked some basic salt to the burger, had an overabundance of chopped lettuce and looked like it was thrown together during a weekend lunch rush. I've raved to my family that we would go here but after today's awful lunch we will find an alternative. Sorry Rusty's, you were a disappointment today. read more

Way too greasy food. Service was ok. But the food was just so bad like even by looking at it eww

Man has this place gone downhill. I keep thinking that maybe I just came on a bad day for them, but the last few years hasn't been good. Hamburgers used to be the best,and messy. The sauce would run down your arm. And you actually got bacon on your burger. Guess we need to find another place to go while heading back home to Seattle read more

I had to create a yelp account because I just had the weirdest experience at the drive thru. When I pulled up to the window, no body was there for about 5 minutes until a dude with a GREEN BEARD approach to the window and takes our order. He was pretty weird. I was trying to just get a burger and a shake but this man just kept flirting with me. He also has a staring Problem. Atleast he gave my meal for free. read more

well sign says it closes at 8. but we went by to get an ice cream at 740 and they were closed bummer read more

Ok this is our usual "go to" spot when traveling anywhere near here.. but today.. 10/7/21 there was a sign on window that said "on break be back shortly"?? Shortly?? How about posting a time you'll be back? Like closed from 1-2 for lunch? The gentleman ahead of us had been waiting for 10 minutes we waited about 7 minutes more and decided to leave, there were 4 cars behind me that I helped back out and all 5 vehicles left.. not good. read more

Had to wait forever for service then they let other people cut in front finally got the food and it was just warm. very lousy service.. Go to country boys much better food. read more

Came here after stopping by the antique shop across the street and oooweeee the fries, shakes, and burgers were delicious! There was a little bit of a wait but it's only because everything is made FRESH, I will definitely make sure I stop by here next time I'm in town read more

While the iconic Rusty Burger of yesteryear earned its well-deserved fame for exceptional taste, our present-day experience fails to live up to those standards. Regrettably, the food and service leave much to be desired, and the ambiance lacks the charm that once made it renowned. Additionally, the misleading hours add to the overall disappointment. Would not come don't waist your money. as mentioned I eral disappointed local. owners should reconsider being in business. read more

Burgers were excellent! They are definitely on the larger side so make sure you're up for s as big meal!

We had lunch there today........the girl that took our order had 1 1/2 inch dirty finger nails.....is that even allowed by the Health Dept.? When our order was ready we went to the picnic area that had knee high weeds, and unmowed grass around all the tables. Another young guy that was working the window at Rusty's (tall, dark hair wearing a baseball cap & teal t-shirt with autographs all over it) came out & joined 3 of his friends that were drinking tall canned beer......and he proceeded to smoke pot with them, while we ate our food! No wonder the food was poor quality & terribly prepared!!! The fries were a soggy, greasy blob////the burger was just blah, in a flat bun......and the "milkshakes" were the worst! They were foamy, sugary, overly syruped fake tasting goop! The "World Famous" sign out front is a laugh......we will never go back! There is nothing genuine or even interesting about Rusty's in Cashmere...... read more

Delicious burgers and fries. The fries are slightly bigger than McDonald's and super tasty. Just be sure to check your orders before you leave the drive through window. I would return again just for the friendly service. read more

Perfect stop for burgers and fries! I found Rusty's to be so nostalgic. It reminded me of the tasty freeze I used to go to with my Grandparents as a kid. The Rusty burgers were so good! Loved the fresh buns, perfect amount of condiments and the nicely seasoned burger. I only take one star off because the soda was quite flat. I l really liked the fries but they needed seasoning. read more

My friends always want to stop here on our way back to Seattle from Chelan... I mean the burgers are tasty, but it's not really worth making a pit stop every year. I had the Jr. Rusty Burger and that was pretty tasty, I like the toasted buns, but it definitely seemed a little pricy for what it was. I was surprised that the regular Rusty Burger was only $0.50 more with the double patty and cheese. The onion rings are OK, just super greasy. I really enjoyed the fries though! They were crispy and very addicting. However, their ketchup packets are TINY! I wish they could pack in more ketchup so we didn't have to open so many. The Rusty sauce was OK... I think I still prefer regular tartar sauce. I do like the open seating benches in the front of the kiosk and in the back in the shade. Parking is super awkward especially when there are cars driving in the drive-thru lane. They do have a bathroom stall which is pretty clean, and convenient so we don't have to go across to the gas station. Do prepare to wait a 10-30 minutes for your order though! read more

The speed of service is a massive issue. Food is piling up from the cook so not only is it taking forever to get the food, but it is cold when you get it and the shakes are melted. read more

Rusty's is a classic. A must-stop on your way to Wenatchee. No indoor seating but plenty of picnic tables and a covered large picnic area across the parking lot. It's on the $$$ side and takes time for your order ..... but oh so good! Lots of memories of stopping here over the last 30 years. Get a shake! read more

Delicious! I love to try out the local joints and when I saw the crowd gathering here, I knew I needed to try it. I'm so glad I did. although it's more than I like to pay, it was absolutely delicious. $5.50 for a Rusty burger and $3.75 for onion rings. The onion rings were crispy and tasty and the burger was packed with flavor....i will definitely go back. Yes, there is a wait since the food is cooked to order, but that is the price of freshness- no heat lamps here! Final verdict? Yum! read more

Used to be good, has gone down hill. The wait times were long but our group used to want to stop at Rusty's regardless to get the large burgers. Over the past few years the wait times have increased to ridiculous levels. 3 orders were messed up today and over half hour wait times for simple orders. Sometimes the shake machine is working, sometimes it isn't. Most of the time it isn't though, but the 59 Diner across the street makes great shakes and didn't take as long. The restroom was one room that was barely stocked, and due to the crowds they added port-o-potties a few years back. That's how classy you should expect your experience to be. The food is not worth the wait. There are many alternative restaurants nearby worth your time, your money and your dignity. Rusty's no longer deserves any of those three. read more

Rusty's Drive in - Restaurant bathrooms on the left. - American Near Me - Cashmere, Washington

Stopped on the way to Chelan... Ordered a Rusty Burger and Onion Rings.. Burger was dry but OK.. Onion rings nothing special a little and over cooked.. The Rusty dipping sauce was tasty.. A OK experience but nothing exciting..... A little disappointed as I used to come here growing up but will give it another try next time I am craving a drive in burger.. Pet friendly picnic area is a plus and friendly service read more

Have been stoping at Rustys for years on the way to Chelan, it has always been a must stop- but the last few times may be changing my mind. Giving it 3 stars because I know it's past and how good it used to be! First-the bathroom situation is BS- I can see why they decided to change it to employees only but honestly it's bad business, sending guests to use a portapotty in 100+ degrees is horrifying, Second-the quality of food has diminished over the years which is sad, corn dogs used to be homemade-I can tell not anymore, forsure store bought and just fried to order, onion rings were way greasy and hard as rocks. Will prob try a time or 2 again but if it continues in the direction its heading may skip and try some other joints along the way! read more

It doesn't look like much and there is no indoor restaurant seating but the food is incredible. They make everything fresh to order and it does take a few minutes. I had the fish burger or "fishwich" but asked for "the fixings" including tomatoes and lettuce (not included) and it was absolutely worth it. My family members had the "Rusty burger" and "deluxe burger" and the Rusty burger was amazing while the deluxe was slightly worse. The onion rings are so amazing too (and tater tots are great). Highly recommend this place!! The staff was very friendly and the food will not disappoint! read more

Me and my mom stopped here after going to the local high school to donate blood. We ordered 2 burgers, an order of onion rings, and 2 chocolate malts. First, the total for our 5 items was nearly $30, which is a little on the spendy side, but not too much more than other local hamburger stands. The issue we had was with our chocolate malts. It was literally THE WORST milkshake I have ever had. The entire thing was not properly mixed and there were chunks of malt power and giant glops of chocolate sauce. It was so sickly sweet, and terrible that we both tossed them in the bin after a few sips. read more

Ordered 2 jr. rusty's, waited 10 to 15 minutes. It was a little busy. The hamburger was COLD! The whole thing! Meat, Bun, cheese, the tiny strip of bacon. There was plenty of sauce, lettuce, pickles and tomatoes. Cheese was not melted. It was a sad hamburger! The onion rings were over cooked and just warm. I have been coming here for over 35 years when I pass through town, couple times a year. It has slowly been going down hill for a couple years. I think I am done, this was the worse yet. read more

Little retro place right of 2. There is a gas station right next to it. The food is made to order so the wait was almost 25 min in the drive thru for 3 shakes and a small fry with one car in front. The shakes are really good. If your not in a hurry you should stop here if for nothing else the shakes. read more

This burger joint tastes like In and Out burgers. They are very slow but food comes out just right. I gave them 3 for food but there's a honey bucket if you need to use the restrooms. Not cool considering we would love to use a regular restroom and sinks to wash hands. read more

Rusty's Drive in - Fresh - American Near Me - Cashmere, Washington

This little drive-in has been a staple in our community for decades ...however it's under new management and that has caused it to go downhill...which is so sad for... you can rarely ever get through over the phone and their service is terrible...food is ok but they've cut corner and sadly is shows... I had many fond childhood memories of this place and now it makes me sad to know that it's simply not the same. read more

We've hit Rustys for years on our annual trip east. We've accepted the pricy menu and extreme wait times because the food is so damn good. But clearly they only see customers as a debit card. They do not care about us. First hint was the stingy ketchup stance- eack packet is a battle. But the bathroom situation is the real problem. Last year they locked up the facilities and kicked customers to a nasty old porta potty. Even though it is unusable- the rusty crew will not unlock their bathrooms for customer use. Instead they will cheerfully take your $50 for burgers and fries for (4) and will direct you to the gas station next door to pee. Thats just bad business. Take care of your customer and your customer will take care of you. We wont be back. read more

Wow...what a disappointment. For all the people going in one would think that the food was outstanding...but no (I think they were just the only place opened). Had the Bacon Cheeseburger (wife had the hamburger) and we split some onion rings. Positives: 1) Was nice outside! 2) Outside seating 3) Made-to-order food Negatives 1) Tables were filthy 2) OVER-PRICED food 3) SLOW service 4) For being "made-to-order" food...one would think that the food was hot! But no. 5) Charge for condiments (not ketchup). What? Dumb. DUMB! read more

This place is so painfully inefficient that it overrides any desire to stop there ever again. This was my first visit here. The burgers are decent, but it took them 10 minutes to take orders from three people in front of me. Then it took another 15-20 minutes to get the burgers. The sign taped to the window says it could take up to 30 minutes. There was also a undated and what looked to be older sign saying that their shake machine was broken, but that they could still make shakes, but it would take longer. There is no "quick stop" here. It really wasn't very crowded on the Monday (today) that I ate there. If you see more than four people in front of you...RUN AWAY! Orders are written down by hand, then the counter person closes the order window, stares at the ticket, starts writing prices, then goes to the one cash register to add it up, then opens a window, tells you the total, then you pay. Oh, the ONLY cash register is in front of the ONLY walkup-pickup window, so someone paying is blocking pickups as they are called out over a loudspeaker. . Oh, and after my number was called, an old lady customer, seeing the pickup window, tried to confirm a request made on a previous order. The dialogue took two minutes which ended in the employees saying, "I don't know what I can do." My food is getting cold and there is no where I can go to get it....ARRRGH! Last thing, most burger joints make a point of describing the size of their beef patties so customers know whether to order a single, double or in Rusty's case, their super-sized four-patty burger. Their signage says nothing about how big their patties are. When I asked, the employee just shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know, their just, like, regular patties." I think they need to at least know this, or better yet, post it on their sign. read more

On our way home from a long weekend of sun and Chelan adventures, we decided to stop at Rusty's for an early dinner as my husband had been there over a dozen times and said it was a guaranteed good eat. Not this time. We both ordered the Rusty Jr. with some fries and ketchup, and a couple milkshakes. After waiting in the 90 degree heat for more than half an hour with rumbling tummies, we pounced on our meal only to find that - the bun was stale and crumby - the burger was a blackened, dry, tough, shriveled patty no thicker than a nickel - there was no ketchup to be found for the so-so fries. If it weren't for the loads of condiments masking the dryness of the burger, it wouldn't have been edible at all. Normally I'd send this kind of meal back and ask for another, but there was no way in hell I was waiting another 35 minutes for a crappy burger in that heat. What was especially irritating was that we noticed the people in the drive-thru were getting their meals quick as lightning. So are the people waiting outside just put on the back burner/not as important as the drive-thru customers? Cuz no offense, but we were pretty freaking hungry, too. I understand it's a mom-and-pop establishment, but Rusty's REALLY needs to learn how to deal with high volume service more efficiently, especially during peak seasons. Unfortunately for them, this was my first and LAST Rusty's experience, and I don't even feel bad saying that you're better off making a stop at McDonald's. The one star is because of Rusty's saving grace: the milkshakes. Thick, cold, and delicious. read more

When I was a kid, road trips and camping trips with the family meant stopping at greasy little drive-ins and eating burgers, onion rings, and shakes on the way to and back from our location. From then on, every time I get in the car and start heading east, I'm craving a good old fashioned drive-in burger, full of grease and calories and trans fats. Mm mmm! I've tried just about every drive-in on Highway 2, but this past summer on the way out to Wenatchee, a friend of mine suggested that the boyfriend and I try Rusty's. He swore by Rusty's, and said I wouldn't be disappointed. So we turned off in Cashmere to see what it was all about. First off, it's a LONG wait for your food. I was astounded at the amount of people going through the drive-thru just to wait that long for food. At that point, you might as well get your butt out of the car and soak up some sun while you wait. Both the wait and eating would have been more enjoyable if there weren't so many huge, nasty flies everywhere. I mean, EVERYWHERE. We could not get away from the flies unless we ate in our car. Maybe that's why people chose to go through the drive-thru, after all. The burgers were alright, and the onion rings were good, but it probably wouldn't be my first choice, simply based on the fact I don't want to think about giant horseflies in my food. read more

I'd eat here again. This was my second time and for me the draw is the outdoor seating. After a day of rafting on the Wenatchee River it's a good stop before heading back West. read more

This place has the worst ever call in service. I have called for orders to go many times and either nobody answers or somebody answers and they hang up on me. I'm not sure if this is a product of not having enough staff or the staff just doesn't like taking to go orders which Would be silly cuz the only orders they take are to go orders! Get it together! read more
