HIGHLIGHTS 1) Server was great 2) [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere was on the louder side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 3) Malts and appetizer were good 4) Burger was not good, pretty disappointed, never again for the food ***Below is full review*** Service was great! Our server was super nice and even gave us a discount for giving us the wrong food before we needed to mentioned it. I got the salted Carmel and brownie malt. They kinda lacked the brownie but was still good taste overall. Appetizer: Cheese curds were decent, not super strong flavor but not oily and decent portion. Side of onion rings were pretty good. Again not strong flavor but made well. Upcharge $2 (service didn't mention) [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere: Kinda loud because it's a smaller restaurant and harder to hear the person across from you. Nice older classic decor and look. Been there since 1986.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately the entree food was not good... Disappointed on the California Burger. Had no flavor. The tomato was bland and soggy, the meat had no seasoning or flavor. The avocado was dull and tasteless, Only good part on it was the lettuce. My boyfriend order the turkey club but didn't get that, the server knew it was the wrong order but still brought it to us. My bf didn't want to say anything, and the server said he took something off the bill (which we thought meant took the sandwich off, but gave us $9 off the bill) Overall. It was a decent, the appetizer, and malts are nice. But I wouldn't go there for the entrees. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes are all here for this one! A great little spot tucked away in a strip mall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We chose to sit down and order in, but they also have a counter that you can order food and malts to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got 2 burgers and 2 malts, both were good but nothing out of the park. The onion rings though are 10/10, perfectly crispy! We still enjoyed our time and will absolutely be back to try more items on the menu. read more

Tried The Original Malt Shop for the first time and it did not disappoint! We ordered the Fudge Scotchie and El Jefe--both were outstanding. The Fudge Scotchie was a rich blend of fudge and butterscotch--sweet, creamy, and indulgent. The El Jefe took it up a notch with brownie chunks and salted caramel, perfectly balancing sweet and salty. Each flavor felt thoughtfully crafted, and the fact that everything is made fresh just takes it to the next level. The prices? Surprisingly affordable for the quality you get. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great flavors, generous portions, and a classic vibe that makes you want to come back.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend, and we'll definitely be returning soon! read more

Stopped in for a malt on a hot day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is a retro little store with plenty of parking out front.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were greeted by the employee and I ordered a medium Classic. It has chocolate syrup in a chocolate malt - you can't go wrong with a classic! Very thick, and perfectly chocolately. Pro Tip is to grab the spoon instead of the straw! My friend enjoyed the Colada Malt that they got - thick and fruity! read more

Our server Ethan was wonderful and funny too! Our group enjoyed the French dip, po-boy, a burger with hot honey, and onion rings. I ate the French dip, ate it all which is unheard of for me. I tried my friend's po-boy and liked it a lot too. The onion rings were good, crunchy and not super onion-y. Two in our group got malts, an orange dreamsicle and peanut butter/Butterfinger. The orange dreamsicle was loved by all who sampled it. The peanut butter/Butterfinger guy hoped it would've been sweeter. Overall a good first experience with this establishment. read more

After ordering my hamburger, it was frightening how fast it came to my table. The menu claims that all the beef is medium-well cooked. I think not! It was neither cooked all the way through nor hot enough to have be cooked to order. Which explains the lack of flavor which disappeared whenever it was cooked earlier. I loved my malt and I'm glad I ordered the large size because it was the star of the show, actually the only star of the show. read more

Located in a busy strip mall, so if you blink, might just miss the entrance :) but don't have looks deceive you. We have been to this location possibly once a month or definitely once every other month for many years and it has never disappointed us. The service is always prompt & friendly and the food including the Malts are always great. The food combos are worth the value that you spend (which is very economical in comparisons to other shops that offer similar items). As the pics show, they have an old school diner look going on which is always a crowd pleaser. read more

Came in with my husband and sat down and the waitress came up and greeted us and gave us water. The waitress never came back after sitting there for fifteen minutes waiting to have someone take our order. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were only three other tables with customers and two waitresses.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waitress that greeted us would be having a conversation about her life with another table. We decided to walk out. When it was Snuffy's, the service was fast and good. read more

genuinely the best meal of my life. I could not reccomend this place more. The hot honey burger is so, so good omg

For what it is, it's great. The food is always good, the shakes/malt are always good, the service is solid, and your meal is generally out quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]VERY family friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's nice and dark inside, which is what you want on a hot humid summer day[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a small little dive of a restaurant and meant in a good way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is small and dark and seems a bit grungy, but the food is old time burger joint.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was good and the malts were top notch and come with extra in the tin cup. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good place for that nostalgic feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Another outstanding visit! Superb. Asked to split a meal. Cheerfully served in separate baskets nicely split. Always get the Fudge Scottie malt. 16oz would be enough but always get the 24. Super service. Friendly, efficient. read more

Sis and I made a special drive to have burgers and malts for lunch. It's been a long time since we were here (Snuffy's) and were surprised to see that a 2nd location just opened in Fridley, much closer to home. We walked in right before it filled up. Seat yourself. Waittress came over quickly to take our orders (we looked online prior to coming) and the burger baskets came out very fast. I ordered a California bacon cheeseburger with onion rings and mini Oreo malt. Mini was the perfect size. You just get a glass, not the metal mixing container as well. The mini is plenty of ice cream. Sis ordered a bacon cheeseburger with waffle fries, mini butterscotch malt. Burgers melted in your mouth. Onions and fries were very hot. Malts were perfect dessert to finish the meal. A perfect Fall Saturday lunch! read more

Was visiting a friend in the area and she was craving a shake so we decided on this place for lunch. It seemed to be fairly busy but we got sat quickly. Service was a little slow and it took a while to get water and put in our order. I opted for a burger with waffle fries and seasoned sour cream and then a malt. My friend got the BLT and a malt as well. Overall the food was okay but the malts were good. The prices are very affordable and the atmosphere and a cute diner vibe. They also have a ton of options on the menu and so many malt and soda flavors. I would probably return for a sweet treat but not necessarily a full meal. read more

There are way better options for burgers and malts. Burgers were not quality and very small portions.

I have been coming to snuffy's for years and since the name change although they say they are the same they seem to have gone down hill each time we come. Today we ordered two full malts, the turkey burger, crispy chicken sand which and a half order of both onion rings and fries. The malts came out after our food even though we ordered them about ten minutes before our food. The onion rings were way over fried, the fries seemed as if they had been doubly fried. My chicken sandwich was hard in the middle (I didn't investigate I was too grossed out) my mom's turkey patty was straight from a bag you could tell. Everything seemed very processed and not decent food quality in the least. I wouldn't post this bad of a review if it were the only time we had bad food but it's not. We probably won't be coming back for a long time as the only thing we had that was okay was the malts. Lastly some notes about pricing. To change to a different bun on a sandwich it's .75cents, the 3 for 1.50 dipping sauces actually charge you 2.00 on the receipt. I really hope management does something or I could see this long time Restaurant going out of business soon. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a gem in a strip mall![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was our first time there and the waiter made great recommendations! He was also attentive and came back to check on us. The food was SO good, wanted to eat every last crumb. Ordered the Loaded burger, onion rings and a caramel salt & brownie malt. The bacon was perfect and crispy, the best bacon I've had on a burger! And the original sauce that came on the side was tasty. The onion rings were fried to perfection and paired well with the burger. It was the first time I've had a malt and it was just heavenly! I couldn't finish eating all the yummy things, so took the malt home to finish later. Definitely would come back just to have a malt and try the different ones. Sounds like the perfect treat especially in the summer. My husband got a bean burger that he said was absolutely delicious with his fries. He ordered the Costello malt which satisfied his coffee fix. And [[HIGHLIGHT]]loved the vibe of the place. The space was decorated simply with vintage touches.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't wait to come back and try different items on the menu! Perfect lunch date ! read more

Best thing about this place is in the name! The food is overall okay- average greasy classic American food but the malts are so damnnnnn good! I usually like to try their flavor of the month malt but my to go to is the dynamic duo (strawberry and cookies and cream). Overall, a good selection if you wanna support a local family restaurant that's been around since the 1980 P.S. bring a quarter to play the craw game for candy at the front! Every game is a winner! read more

I haven't been here in decades, way since the remodel I got seated in the first booth right away, and they were full. I was in the mood for an ice cream soda with chocolate ice cream minus whipped cream and drizzle (glad I remembered that part). It's a perfect mix of chocolate sauce with the charged water. This is an entire meal for me. Service was friendly. The host starts you with an icy cold glass of water which actually tasted pretty good and was a good chaser for the sugar coma. read more

Great hamburger and awesome malts. I had a bacon cheeseburger and my grandson had the BLT. Great old fashion hamburger cooked just right came out quick. Grandson (9) loved the BLT. read more

It was ok but I would not frequent it . The service was ok . The burger was kinda good, not enough meat.

I've never had a malt for some reason. I did today and it was delicious! There are so many combinations of malts you can have. I also had their fries, which reminded me of Wendy's and I love wendys fries. The chili was also delicious. The place is in a strip mall, so it's small but cozy. The staff was nice. read more

I used to go here with my family all the time when it was called Snuffys. Today, with my daughter we went there reminiscent of old times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor and ambiance was the same as always[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] but the food was not. The hamburger was very average. They do not offer the Bison burger anymore and the malt was horrible. Don't know how can it be called the Malt Shop when the malt was so bad. It was supposed to be strawberry, all I tasted was syrup. I like sweet but this one was soooo sweet I couldn't have more than one sip. Very, very disappointed. I don't think I'll return. read more

I stopped here on my way from the Como zoo. It's cute on the inside, kind of a throwback feel. The staff was nice and were helpful. I ordered a Hawaiian burger, with fries, and a chocolate cherry malt. The burger was just okay, nothing special. The malt was kind of thin for a malt. I'm used to a thicker consistency. The one thing about the malt is that their small is huge. For the price I do not believe it's worth it. But in a pinch I still eat here. read more

We found this place because of my Verizon Up rewards. The strip mall where the restaurant is located is under construction, so don't let the outside appearance keep you from stopping in. We were going to a movie at AMC Rosedale and wanted something to eat for dinner. We had more than an hour before the film started, so it was plenty of time for a quick dinner. We were seated right away and water came out just as quickly. Our waitress showed up a short time later. We needed a little more time, as this was our first time here. I ordered the patty melt and he got a bacon cheeseburger. We also got the standard fries. Everything was DELICIOUS. The food tasted fresh and nothing was greasy. When we return, if there is more time, we're going to try a malt, too. read more

I felt like I walked into a clown house, but that was what I expected anyhow. I didn't mind the outdated circus like space. It was kinda creepy at 11am with no other diners there though. I had a malt craving and couldn't think of anywhere else, and I was hungry. So I scooped my friend up from work and made him have lunch with me here. He can't have dairy so it was quite selfish of me. My bad Joe Joe, lub u dough. Since it was empty we sat quickly and a server came by. I ordered a mini strawberry malt which was like 10 or 12 ounces, good size. I could have sucked down a half size easily, but I restrained myself from ordering it. My malt came quickly but I wanted to wait for my chili cheese fries...I should have told her this since it took 26 minutes for my fries plus my friends chicken fingers with fries. We were the first people in the restaurant and we ordered fried foods. What in the world took so long?? My malt was melted and mostly gone by the time food came. My fries were cold and the cheese was only half melted. The server was quite friendly and the food was fine, not going to blow your mind, but the menu works well with their malts. Probably be more than fine if it came hot. They need to put the food in the fryer faster. Other then that, the malt was delicious. read more

Wasn't a huge fan. The malts were mid and the food wasn't that great either. Service was nice and the ambiance was there

Recommended by a friend, we chose this place as our lunch spot. Half of the sign on the building has fallen off, why didn't I take this as a sign of what was to come? We were seated nearly immediately and payment was processed quickly those were the two positives. They weren't busy but boy were they slow. Arrival in the restaurant to food arrival was 55 minutes! For a burger and fry malt shop! Our drinks took about 20 minutes for the soda and milk and 40 minutes for malts. When the near hour elapsed for our 3 burgers 1 fry and a grilled cheese to arrive, they were warm but the burgers were very over cooked. Not wanting to wait another hour to send them back, we ate and left. Checking this place off of the planning to return list. read more

It was very average. The beef in the burger tasted off. Had a strawberry malt and it tasted like it was made with strawberry syrup. Not frozen strawberries read more

I love the delicious Malts. They're on the higher price point but they will make them to go in minutes. You get a smaller amount than if you were to sit in a booth and eat it there so maybe it's worth sitting down for a shake. Personally I am not a fan of the smash burgers here, to me they've always been dry, frozen and overpriced. Not the same quality you'd get for that price point at a nice burger places. But if you want a shake or malt then you can't go wrong from "snuffys" aka the malt shop. read more

Overpriced precooked cold burger. Really, how hard is it to make a burger to order? I shouldhave know when it came out in 2 minutes. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!! read more

The Original Malt Shop has been around St. Paul forever. Granted it was under previous name, The quality and the essence of this restaurant hasn't changed. Inside it's decorated like the old 1960's diners with lots of color and booths. Of course this is a great place to bring kids because they have lots of space. They have a decent selection of food including options for those who want to eat on the healthier side. I tried a bison burger which was pretty good. For malts I had the Banana Foster which was really light tasting and very nice. You definitely have to come to the Original Malt shop if you're in the Twin Cities area. read more
