Reviews for Miner's Drive-In Restaurant in Yakima, WA
En Route to Richland for business, after a long day of hiking at Mount Rainier National Park, I was starving! I stumbled upon... the Miner's Drive In and was grateful for their awesome food to satisfy my appetite! Old school fast food restaurant withdelicious food and HUGE generous portions. I enjoyed a massively delicious Big Miner Burger and a mountain of fresh tater tots.I apologize about my photo, as it does not do the size of this burger justice. Needless to say, I was unable to finish my mealand had some leftovers. Fast, friendly service and great tasting food. If I ever find myself passing through Yakima again, I'dhappily go back and suggest you do too. Read more
When I was in HS we would travel to Yakima for state basketball. Miner's was always a stopping point. Their food is as good as... I remembered! Definitely get the fry sauce for dipping your Frenchfries. The burgers are huge, so make sure you arehungry! It does feel pricey for the area, and they are currently low staffed so it takes a while to get your food. Don't gohere if you are in a hurry or have cranky/hungry kids. I also don't think they have updated ANY of the decor since they opened. But the dated feel is part of its charm. Read more
We had heard great things about Miner's and couldn't drive by without giving them a try. On arrival we could tell this is the... go-to place for burgers! Cars were lined up in the drive thru and inside the counter was 10 people deep. But the wait wasshort. What better choice than the Big Miner Burger. Loved it! It's truly BIG, with great flavor and a balanced amount oftomato, lettuce, and onion. Also got a large fry and a shake. The fries could seriously be shared with four people. The shakewas smooth and enjoyable. This is a drive-in that prides itself on it's long history, friendly efficient staff, and tasty food. I'd definitely stop by again, next time we're swinging through town. Read more
If you like burgers the size of your hand and sundaes that tip over due to the size...this is your place. Mega big servings!... Great food. I had the bacon burger, fries, scallops, Pepsi, and a strawberry sundae...because when your rolling through youneed to taste as much as possible...of course I didn't finish it...just wanted to experience as much of this tasty place aspossible!

A friend suggested Miner's, so we drove from Olympia just to eat here. Great road trip, and the weather was warm and sunny.... There's a nostalgic feel to this place. Nothing fancy but nice. There's also a drive-through for easy pickup. They do not offerany type of combo or value meal. All burgers, fries, and drinks are Ala carte. All burgers are dressed with mayo, onions, andlettuce. I was asked if I wanted tomatoes, so I guess they are extra, too. One order of fries was plenty for the two of us toshare. We sat outside because it was nice, and we had our pup, Chè. Our meal was brought out to us, which was nice. In myopinion, the burger was uneventful but large. Nothing special. The fries were very good and crisp. We ordered a burger each,split an order of fries, and a large drink. Our bill totaled over 35.00. Pricey, in my opinion. The inside is quite large andworth checking out. View my photos to see what I mean. Read more
Been coming here since high school and remember coming here after our games, also coaches ate for free. Minor burger is the way... to go if you've never been here. The fries are very tasty and I like how the condiment's are layed out still. This recent visitthe burger seemed a little soggy and bun a little dry but I've been here many times and it's not always like that. Decor veryaged but I like how it hasn't changed one bit. Read more
This place checked all the boxes. Giant delicious fish sandwich with perfectly tangy tarter sauce and all the fixins. Chicken... tenders the size of your hand?and the most delicious chocolate marshmallow milkshake that was thick and stayed thick until afterwe finished our meal. The wait was at least 30 minutes, but it was worth it. Standard French fries?nothing special. They didprovide Buffalo sauce which was the best part about those. If nothing else get a milkshake!!!

Maybe I?m not the target audience for this place but good lord the food was ridiculous. Was it good? Sure. Not great in a... memorable sort of way, but good enough for a visit. But the portions were ridiculously huge, even for a guy like me, whogenerally enjoys this kind of food. We ordered a small fry and if that was their small, I don?t want to imagine their large. Ibet a burger and fries here is at least 2500 calories. It was also extremely expensive for two people. $40 for two orders ofburgers (one chicken) and fries with drinks. It was a unique local experience but I probably won?t return. Nobody should serveportions that ridiculously large. The only picture I got doesn?t do it justice. But hey, they?ve been in business forever so Iguess it works. Read more
