I must admit I have emotional attachment to this place since I have been coming to this place since I was a kid. I went in recently for a rootbeer float and was slightly disappointed. Although they still have the chilled glass and the good rootbeer they changed out the ice cream (to cheaper soft serve) and they now put rootbeer in the glass first and ice cream on the top which is does not give the great foam or flavor I remember from childhood. Still love the decor and friendly service but, wish they had not cut back on some of the special touches that made this place really stand out.

My family loves this place. If I were to generalize I would say few establishments with a staff of nearly all teenagers provide good service. This place is an exception. Service provided by teens is always friendly and super fast. Food is good (for fast food). Root beer is great. Love those frosty mugs. Keep it up!

This has to be the best A&W that I have been to since 1982 when all A&W's were good! We went to A&W on a Friday afternoon after seeing it on a blue road sign on I-35. When we pulled in we noticed they still have the car hop ordering system, but then noticed that they also had indoor seating. There were about 6 cars who decided to try to eat a chili dog and other messy food items in the front seat of their cars. We decided to eat indoors. When we walked in, I was unsure what to do. I thought A&W was fast food, but there wasn't a menu board to see what was on the menu. A gal came up to us and advised us to have a seat and she would come to us to take our order. This menu had choices on it that aren't typically found on today's A&W menu. For example, they offered a pork tenderloin sandwich, which is what I decided to order. I came with fries or onion rings, but I chose to upgrade to the cheese curds. I was so impressed with the pork sandwich that I am craving one now as I write this! The A&W was served in a traditional frosty mug. It was so frosty that the A&W root beer started to form into ice! Ahhh, the way A&W root beer was meant to be enjoyed! I really enjoyed my trip back in time by stopping at this A&W and really can not wait to make another trip to Faribault to eat here again!

This is possibly just not my style of food. We stopped in for a quick bite to eat since it was kind of cute with the drive up style ordering and all. I had the fish sandwich which was advertised as batter fried cod with lettuce, cheese and tarter on a bun. It was really just like a gigantic fish stick with no discernible pieces of cod to be found. My companions had a bacon cheeseburger and corndogs. It all looked fine but no one was raving about the food. They do, however, have some pretty great root beer that they serve in big, frosty mugs. This place is probably great for people who have memories of going to A&W when they were younger- I'm guessing the food is the same as it has always been.

I must say, I haven't been to an authentic A&W in quite some time! The one closer to home in Apple Valley is set up like any old regular fast food place. I loved the service and the food at this location. A cold frosty root beer float on days like this hits the spot!

There's so few of these around anymore it's so great to see one that still around and old fashioned just the way it was meant to be! The inside is acutally cute for a fast food joint. They have great service and a cute little fireplace in the middle of the restaurant. The food is fast and so good, great burgers!
