    Simple cheeseburger and crinkles
    Denise C.

    Basic burger and fires kind of place. Place the order at the window, then wait for a good while, then once your name is called, you pay for your order. Cash only. They have an outdoor seating area but no indoor seating if that's what you're looking for. We wanted a quick, no-frills, affordable burger and fries and that's what we got...minus the quick part. Solid burger, just wish it had more than cheese and pickles on it. Crinkle cut fries.

    Definitely worth the 50 min drive also great lil road-trip. First time having it I was surprised because it looks like a typical burger you grill but it tasted even better cooked perfectly and all the ingredients were fresh! Was disappointed they didn't have their curly fries they were completely out but there will definitely be a next time! The waffle fries were so good and crispy and had just the right flavor. The prices were fair nothing expensive. Also my cousin put me on the ski soda that every one should try!

    Onion rings fries burgers nuggets

    The best burger ever it's so cheap and quick, we got 4 burgers, chicken nuggets, 2 things of onion rings, and some fries for ONLY $40! It's so worth it. We drove all the way from O'fallon and it's so worth the drive!

    Just go and see for yourself. Perfect burger, cooked to perfection and made fresh every single time. I enjoy doing the 50min drive from St Louis! It's a mini road trip for the family and there's a cute park literally a block over where the kids can play and you can sit and eat if you don't there. Couldn't recommend this place enough and the price is more than fair! Cash only - don't forget. An awesome time and excuse me in the last photo that's the face you make when the ski is just so dang bussin you don't know how to contain your self!!!

    Place came recommended from locals - awesome recommendation! Burger's, onion rings and fries were delicious! If your coming through, gotta stop!

    Came here right after I got 50+ bottles of Ski, and let me tell you, it was a grand time spent in Breese...a true taste of Clinton County, Illinois. My double cheeseburger was phenomenal, with just the right amount of flavor and crunch. The meat patties were decently-sized, slightly bigger than what you'd normally find at a place like this. Price was good too. If the burger would have had a little bit of secret sauce, it would be eerily similar to a certain burger fast food chain mainly located on the West Coast! I loved Wally's and can't wait to go back again!

    Take a step back in time and walk up to order a mouth-watering burger and chocolate shake. Best hometown burger joint around!

    Great food. Especially their Wally burgers. But the absolute slowest, worst service at any burger joint around.

    Yesterday was in breese il for work, Went to use the bathroom after hitting up the drive through…read morehad a buddy order my food while I went number 2. The restroom was out of TP.. no big deal so I call the restaurant..nobody answers so I call my coworker who went there with me and asked him to go tell the front desk they were out of TP and I was stuck in there. Cool I'm thinking I can finally leave.. nope 17 minutes goes by between when he called me back and said he told them and when I get toilet paper. 1237-1250pm obviously I'm pi*sed when I finally get my TP so when walking out I glance over and just shake my head I get to the second door about to walk out without saying anything when the bigger elderly woman who apparently is the manager stops me and says sir so I turn around. She said I'm sorry Its not my fault I didn't work yesterday I said ok that's fine but my coworker had been up to the counter about 15-20 minutes ago she says I was only told 2 minutes ago I said well maam I have been stuck in that bathroom for 30 minutes 10 of which I was trying to figure out what I was going to do and the other 20 waiting since my co worker walked in and said something she started getting defensive so I got even more upset and irritated as she raised her voice and said there's no way you were in there that long (at this point I lost it) and said loud enough for the few people eating and the workers to hear me say woman I was in the bathroom so long the Sh*t on my a**crack got cold to which she said your full of sh*t to which i said not anymore and ended the conversation by saying corperate will hear about this to which she said go ahead and tell corporate I don't give a F*ck. And threw one arm up and turned her back on me. This was my first time in breese il and my first experience in any restaurant there and I'll say this, if your workers are this rude then not only am I not coming back here I will never eat at any Hardee's restaurant ever again. Not to mention my coworker sat in his f350 work truck in the drive thru for 13 minutes waiting on a cheese burger fries and a drink and was literally the only one in the drive thru the entire 13 minutes after that they got maybe 5 cars in the drivethru the 30 minutes I was outside before I got stuck in their nasty bathroom(I'm only mentioning this because her other excuse was sorry we've had a rush to which I told her exactly what I said here) very unprofessional very unpleasant woman and honest to God the absolute WORST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD from ANY restaurant or fast food place or even store in my entire 28 years of life. (Also went to call corporate to which Hardee's does not have a number for anymore just a QR code that leads you to the website

    Food quality has really dropped off. I got tacos and had to toss them in the trash. Tasted old and…read morevery nasty. The chicken strips were over cooked and burned black on the ends. They often forgot at least one item in the drive thru. I am too the point where I'm done. Poor service and poor food quality with high prices. No thank you.
