An aptos staple. Now fast food might not be a thing in aptos but this is as close as it gets. The burgers have an in n out flavor but with a different bun. The staff are friendly and helpful. This is a must stop if you want to feel like a neighbor while visiting here. read more

I'm a regular customer and think they do a great job for a fast food place. Yesterday I went for lunch and the counter person taking my order, although friendly, his FINGERNAILS WERE FILTHY!!! When you go somewhere to eat, even that person may not touch your food, you expect the employees to be CLEAN AND PRESENTABLE! thank you for taking care of this. Or I won't be back. read more

15 bucks for a small double cheese burger and a can soda... Really. This place is crazy and they take 20 minutes to make your burger and you're the only one there Skip this place read more

Always a delicious treat when that corn dog craving hits you. The burgers are big and filling. The breakfast sandwiches are awesome also. It's silly they make you order inside -or go inside- when there is a walk up window. There were a bunch of confused people hovering around with masks in their hands, unsure of how to order. read more

I really enjoyed the old-fashioned feel of Sno-White. The food was even better than the atmosphere, it was buss.

After a long day at Seacliff Beach we were headed back home and it was the oh so sudden "I have to use the bathroom!" shouted from the back seat that made us stop the car. They have a bathroom on the side of the building and there was also a line. So while kids waited in line I meandered over to the front to order ice cream cones and fries for the kids. The kids loved their soft ice creams. With the combo of the perfectly fried salty fries and cold sweet soft serve we drove away in pure heaven. I think this may be a tradition for us to now start when we leave the beach. read more

The order process is okay. The child that took our order was questionable. The only thing we ordered was two cones of soft serve. It took FOR EVER to get. How hard is it for two teenagers who are standing around to make two cones?? Get your ass in gear and make us some cones dude. Are you so high you can't figure it out? Come on bro. We FINALLY got our cones, they are good. They use full fat cream. As we were eating our cones they were calling a number for a cone that no one was claiming. I was about to put my cone down and go grab that cone that nobody was claiming....Then I decided not too. They need to employee older people with brains and leave the stoners to be stoners and live off their parents. I would not recommend this place. I will not be going back for any reason or for a menu item what so ever. read more

This is an update: Went last week after camping for several days. What used to be a Go To place for us is no longer. Has changed. Hamburger patty was teeny tiny, served almost cold, too much sauce, cheese was not melted, messy and fell apart. Has gone WAY downhill. Root beer float good. read more

Nice location... right off the freeway and a very short walk to the town area. Cute clean place, clean bathroom, food moderately priced but took a while to come out. Onion rings are pretty good, but the bun on my burger was cold and fell apart mid-munch... sign of older bread. Also, patties are too small for the bun. read more

I just wish they stayed open later ! Very hard working crew producing yummy turkey burgers! Thank you!

Unfortunately this place has lost its touch. The burger I use to love has been replaced by a bland unusual tasting burger. It reminded of a frozen patty from Costco. The price has gone up and food quality has gone down. I am sorry to say I will not be going here anymore and I suggest you do the same if you don't want to be disappointed. :( read more

Not that they care anyway! Hours posted. Open til 9. But kitchen closes at 8. Got there at 7:50, told kitchen closed---- bad bad business- especially when we drive out of the way to come here. Won't be back!! read more

My fave spot whenI am in town. Childhood memories of when I used to come with my parents!

Food and value was ok, but they failed at allergies and communication. Some short training on allergy safety in food service, and basic communication follow ups would go a long way. read more

Was really sad about my experience here yesterday. Full disclosure- the food was amazing. Got the breakfast sandwich and hash browns. But I saw an older woman, who I assume is possibly a manager, walking around the indoor area without a mask on, and then proceeded to go to the kitchen and cook my entire meal without a mask or any type of gloves. It was just really upsetting to see the lack of precautions taken, and the lack of care for the other people working there who are wearing their masks (which is required!) I had already paid for my food otherwise I would've just left. I had to go home and put my food back in the oven to make sure any germs were killed. Super disappointing read more

Heard a rumor they had the Impossible Burger so decided to try it and when we got there they had the Beyond Burger instead. We tried it anyway with a side of fries and a chocolate dipped cone for dessert. The burger was just ok, kind of pricy ($8.95) not as good as the Impossible burgers I've had. Fries were pretty good, there were a lot of them. Soft serve was pretty standard. They were pretty busy on a Saturday evening so we had to wait a while for our food. A lot of people were ordering milkshakes and I asked someone how they were there and she said they were really delicious. Maybe I'll go back for a milkshake some day. Probably not for a veggie burger unless they start serving the Impossible burger read more

I went to sea cliff state beach and walked by this place. Its a little old, and the bathroom has a key on a squeegee handle like a gas station. Too bad they can't upgrade to a token machine. I had a junior burger and a banana split. How many places have a banana split on the menu? I imagine Denny's has banana splits but I would not be caught dead in Denny's. Decent burger and banana split. read more

Sno-White Drive In - Burgers Near Me - Aptos, California

If you want McDonald's or In N Out, go there, Sno-White is not a chain and you can't always have it your way. Having said that, I haven't been here since we used to cut classes in high school to go to the beach and we'd always stop at Sno-White before heading into Sea Cliff. I don't remember having any complaints then. Fast-forward to now: husband and I were camped at Sea Cliff Beach for the week and every time we passed the drive-in I got nostalgic and had to have a chocolate dipped cone. The employees are all teenagers so you have to remember they aren't exactly professionals but the "surfer dude" who took our order was nice enough and efficient. We both ordered "the mixed" which is vanilla & chocolate swirled together, then dipped in overly-waxy "chocolate." It didn't matter that it's not real, it was about going back to the past, and these cones did just that. I felt like a kid again licking around and around before the whole cone melted down my shirt, then pushing the ice cream down into the tip of the cone with my tongue (didn't everyone do that?) The place isn't the cleanest and the employees aren't the brightest but when was it ever? I did get a look at the french fries and they were glistening with grease under a heat lamp but oh well, that's how most people like them. The menu is very interesting: burgers, breakfast sandwiches, hot dogs, corn dogs, and the special the day we were there? Chicken teriyaki of course! Sno-White is an old-fashioned drive-in, how many of them are around anymore? I'd go back just for the memories, it's not really that bad. read more

Came here tonight after my friend mentioned she saw it and wanted to try it out, so we drove from San Jose to Santa Cruz area like we always do. I ordered a cheeseburger,onion rings and a Pepsi. All was good especially the onion rings.yummy! I paid about 10 bucks for everything which I don't mind since I prefer helping out local business' rather than McDonald's and such. There were two young guys behind the counter, one was the owners son. I overheard his conversation with another customer,whom I think was a regular. Any who this young guy was pretty cool my friend and I were conversing with him throughout our meal. Felt like not only like a customer but a friend. But we are friendly people so it probably comes with the territory. I would go back if in the area. *cash only. They also have an ATM machine which cost 1.75 to withdrawal cash* read more

Went here cause I was told it was good. I was seriously disappointed. I ordered a Chile cheese dog . It was generic process cheese the yellow kind on a basic hotdog, kind u would pay $1.00 for a pack and a bun, the fires were frozen that you reheat in oil and a soda can for this I paid around $10.00. I ate my chili dog wishing I had picked a different location to spend my money at. Gave away my fries to kids there. Just a waste of time for crappy food. read more

Great burgers and fish sandwich! Order your fries extra crispy - so good. Breakfast sandwiches, French toast and big breakfast plate is great too!! read more

The ice is great. A 10. The food I would never eat the food if they paid me. The place looks so dirty. No one wears gloves. I see the person who gets the burgers ready wearing no gloves . Really disgusting. Sorry. read more

First need to update their menu, they don't offer donuts. The muffins are from Costco so they are good. Breakfast was better than we expected. Pancakes were really good, fluffy and good flavor. Hashbrowns needed some help but ok, bacon was good. My breakfast sandwich was good egg could have been better but I'm picky about my eggs. Someone ordered a corn dog, burger and fries. All were happy with there food. Fries were very good. This wasn't your gourmet breakfast and we knew that before hand. This is a step up from Fast food breakfast, we would go back for pancakes and bacon for sure. read more

Since, there are no fast food places in Aptos. This is the best alternative in a time crunch. I had a Giant Burger (single 1/3 pound patty) with all the fixings and fries and a drink for about $10.00 (cheese was 50 cents more). This was satisfying but I though later I could have held out for some chili dogs. The staff seemed lacklustered until the group of 15 showed up behind me. Then things were really jumping. The process is order at the window or counter and they will call out your orders. Inside seating for maybe 20, and a couple of picnic tables outside. Be careful in their parking lot, cars fly through there like crazy. read more

I had the chicken sandwich and ice cream cone. Such a great treat on a beautiful day.

Woohoo! As good as it gets for a greasy fast food burger! Super cool retro sign, super cool retro restaurant. Cheap, quick, and tasty! read more

Super fresh and delicious! Took a little drive down the coast, got a little hungry and made a quick detour. Nothing fancy, but very good. Fries are fresh cut, the burgers are cooked on a flaptop, and the toppings are fresh. The best part was the shake. Reminded me of some of the best Ice Cream shakes of my childhood (fresh bananas... Yum!!!) read more

The burgers here are great! Lettuce is chopped so you get a good balance of it in each bite instead of big clumps of it like other burger places around here. It's what you'd imagine from the 50s. Great flavors and a great crew of people working. I probably eat here way too much. Good luck finding anything else this good anywhere close to this price. read more

Sno-White Drive In - Double cheeseburger with onion rings. - Burgers Near Me - Aptos, California

After having a fun day out with the kids, we were looking for something casual, fast, easy and simple, and we got it. This reminds me of Foster's Freeze but back when their burgers didn't taste like someone sat on them. My son really loved his corn dog, my daughter liked her grilled cheese and we liked our burgers. We passed around the different flavored shakes around the table to try. The vanilla and peanut butter were awesome. The espresso and oreo, just okay. The portion of onion rings was more of a single serving size and not a group share. Is it a little on the pricey side? Maybe but it's kind of an old school experience that takes you back in time that you can't put a price on. They've even got chocolate dipped cones. If you are looking for nostalgia, this is the place to go. read more

The burgers are OK. Nothing special or unique. The fries are thin and crunchy. The chocolate milkshake is delicious. It's a good quick lunch option if you are going to the beach. There are plenty of parking with inside and ouside seating. The age of the place and the old signage adds a little charm. read more

Sno-White Drive In - Burgers Near Me - Aptos, California

Unfortunately, we could taste the other fried foods in our fries and rings. And, we both got food poisoning !!! We're super bummed since we've been so excited to try this for the past 6 years. read more

I was planning on posting pictures of the burgers we ordered but they didn't last long lol. This place is everything you'd expect from an old school drive up burger joint. Nothing fancy. Looks straight out of the 1960s but the food speaks for itself. We ordered a super burger with cheese, a giant burger with cheese, Fries and a sodas. The burgers were absolute perfection. Made to order with the perfect amount of sauce and the veggies were crisp and delicious. The fries are similar in size to in n out's but not soggy. Instead they were crisp, well seasoned and delightful. We saw other customers with soft serve and that also looked great. Can't wait to come back to try the corn dog and chicken tenders. We HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone seeking a fantastic representation of a classic American Meal. read more

It was not half bad. It is close to Seacliff beach so it is perfect for getting something to go and then walking down. There are some benches outside and a few inside. The bathroom is not usually open the public.. I have no idea why.... just the 411 I got from the kid working behind the counter. The food came relatively quickly and the 5.25 I paid for a junior with cheese, med fries and diet Pepsi was worth it. My counter part had a shake and the big cheese. The burgers are true to their names and the fries were yummy... I am a sucker for some fries that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside... just the right amount of salt. They also have a seafood basket type dealio, chicken strips and a variety of other greasy goodness. CASH ONLY!! read more

Surprisingly good and reliable old school fast food. I love the breakfast sandwiches. Tastier than a McMuffin. Recommend.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Firstly, the children behind the counter barely looked 14, how they are legally working is a huge mystery. Beyond that, it took 30 minutes to get a large fry and two burgers because said children were too busy giving their friends free ice cream. Then to top it off, when my wife went to ask what the hold up was, the snot nosed brat decided to mock her over the intercom. The burgers were decent, the fries were tasty, but I'll never go back to this daycare for teenagers again. I really wanted to talk to an adult about it, but there were none present. read more

What a nightmare. My experience here was far from pleasant. I was overcharged for a meal that should have cost me around 9-10 dollars, by nearly double the cost. When I arrived back at my office and investigated some of their pricing I decided to call and make sure I was charged correctly. After explaining what had happened to the manager, and being told that my meal should not have cost that much, he then put me on the phone with the young man who had originally over charged me! AWKWARD. Then to make things even more awkward I asked to be put back on the phone with the manager and could hear the young man and manager bickering with one another over the matter. Their fries are good, service is awful and management is a joke. read more

The burgers here are great, and the beachside location is fun. Love how it has the vibe of the last roadside diner to survive the apocalypse, however I need to dock a star because they really just need to keep the place cleaner. Tables are grimy. But the burger is the reason to come here. The burgers remind me of a particular burger I used to eat a lot growing up at our local fairgrounds, which I could only get when the fair was in town. Great selection of ice cream too, if you prefer the soft serve or if you love milkshakes. Not many places like this left on this earth, treasure it while it lasts (and apparently, this one has really "lasted" by the looks of it, but it adds to the charm!). Oh yeah, don't forget about the onion rings!! Get yourself some onion rings!! Fries are excellent too. read more

Young kid workers not paying attention being on their phones. They play too much. Our food was given to some random person.

Overpriced food & slow service. Has a classic taste, but you can get it elsewhere. *yelp wants longer reviews... Ain't nobody got time for that :) So here are a couple of sentences to please the people of yelp who think that people need to keep reading reviews instead of getting on with their lives read more

I can't believe this place only has 3 stars. Looks are definitely deceiving. Best onion rings, burger, chicken tenders and fries with milkshake Ive ever PUT IN MY MOUTH! Cooked to order every time I've been so the wait for food can be about 15 or 20 minutes. Worth the wait! read more
