Yes, it is a tourist trap. We still had to stop. Spent way too much on souvenirs, but hey, good place to get gifts to give people. Prices are rather high, but I think that depends on what area of the country you are from. The food was good and I loved the idea of 5 cent coffee! The coffee was good. ...

Wall Drug was everything I hoped it would be and more! Great prices, great food, great family fun. There is no other place like it! It is an absolutely absurd place with shop upon shop of souveniers, BUT you MUST go for their food, and be sure to take advantage of the free ice water!

Roadside attraction at its best! Expensive food that is mediocre quality, but a fun experience. Lots of old times things to look at! There is a bookstore, candy shop, art and even a chapel! Plus, you can take lots of fun selfies with the crazy props they have everywhere!

Great place, don t bring your dogs. We did. Bad idea. I have one that likes to bark and protect us from every other dog on the planet. Once he is away from the offender, he pees aggressively on everything. The other dog like to eat things. More

We stop every time we go to Alaska, or any place else we go north of San Francisco. Our kids always wanted to stop from age 5 into adulthood. One has to wonder how so many can rate it a 5 and how many can rate it a one and some say some really bad things. My guess is that the 1 ratings come from ...

The incessant highway billboards are entertaining - they're all different, so give credit to the sign makers. Wall Drug itself is indeed a shock of a tourist trap though. I don't spend money easily on stuff I don't need, so was ready to leave soon after arrival. We were hungry but the restaurant had...

Ok ok. Maybe 2.5. The signs advertised all along the way were way fun. I was so excited to go! It is still worth the stop. For real, it is. It is a tourist stop. 100%. Sooo, during a global pandemic, not recommended unless you re prepared to not have a chance to social distance so where your masks a...

First off let me say that I would give this place negative stars if it was an option. After visiting I envision this is what hell is like. HUGE TOURIST TRAP! Very busy and chaotic. There is mostly just souvenir shops, everywhere you look. Crappy souvenirs; rocks, geodes, cheap trinkets (that are exp...

Great place to stop. Lots of fun things to see and do. Many shops with everything you can imagine.

The restaurant was nice and the food was good. They also have a bakery, ice cream shop, candy and more.

Kids will really enjoy Wall Drug. There are lots of photo opportunities so take your camer...

RIP off! The salesperson Lynette P was rude and wouldn't get prices on items. There are no bar codes on anything and you have to pay in each section but the signs that say that are too high to notice. It is not handicapped friendly. Not worth the stop. Ruined my wife's day because she gathered gift...

My son and I stopped here after touring the badlands like thousands of other tourists do.

Pros: We got our free water and some neat souvenirs.

Cons: the handmade ice cream and milkshakes they bragged about for miles on billboards was closed. The original drug store that peeked my interest was ...

Don t go, don t waste your time. It s awfully crowded, a ridiculous tourist trap, and nothing really worth stopping for. The only redeeming quality was the ice cream shop, the shakes were amazing (but the cookie dough ice cream was awful).

Touristy, ok food, had a burger and fries and paid close to $20 for I don't know what. You're better off eating before coming here then spending your time just walking around, maybe get a souvenir, smash a penny, get an over priced donut for the road.

Wall drug is a must stop if you are traveling through South Dakota in the I90. You cant miss it with all the billboards they have filled through the highway. They still have the free ice water and cheap coffee tradition, the food was considerably good. And the badlands national park is very closely...

Fun stop! Yes, it s kitschy, but that s part of the appeal. There s lots of fun things to look at, an outdoor and indoor area for kids, and the donuts are delicious! One suggestion, do the rock mining, not the rock panning. The rock mining can be enjoyed by the whole family, you get more rocks, and ...

My family and I had a great time here! Take the time and get off the highway and drive over and see this place. There are so many stores inside this Wall Drug. It just keeps going and going and going. Pretty much anything you can think of buying on a trip you will find here. I'm giving it a five bec...

As usual, Wall Drug Cafe delivers a wonderful meal. While their roast beef sandwich is to die for, I got the chicken bacon ranch that I always order when visiting. The foreign employees are wonderful to engage with and learn their stories, and everyone is friendly. If you cross South Dakota on 90 a...

It had been many years since we were last at Wall Drug. It has grown and probably now would take an entire day to see it all. It is still fun and unique to it's purpose. Worth stopping for whether one is on the way to the Black Hills or coming from them. We came for dinner on a rainy evening.

Always a stop for us to and from the Black Hills and it never gets old. There is always something cool to find and purchase. Food is really good and the Free Ice Water is always cold.

EDIT 08OCT2017 - Stopped in for a slice of apple pie on our way to the hills and its still amazing.

Road weary and in need of a restroom I found myself fighting through wave after wave of poorly socialized, odiferous rednecks from all across America's clogged Heartlands. No, Wall Drug I do not feel nostalgia for the golden days of Wild West genocide and culturally appropriated kitsch. I pooped and...

Wall to Wall people! See what I did there? It is a fun little break from the nothingness that is I-90 across South Dakota. It is definitely a crowded little place, however. I am not a fan of crowds but had a pretty good time here. We got a box of their "famous" donuts and they were quite tasty. My s...

This is a normal tourist trap. But traveling the United States and in this state there's nowhere else in the area for jobs. The local people need this place to survive. So yes, I stopped and bought some things to support them. If you're on a long drive and you like a $0.05 coffee this is the place ...

I understand why you will feel compelled to stop by this place, like we did. It's in the middle of no where, and you have heard about it. The place is a huge tourist trap. We had buffalo burgers, they were terrible. Worst meal we had on our trip to the black forest. They were clearly frozen pat...

This just shows the power of advertising. 300 miles of signs and we just had to stop. What a let down. It's a big gift shop with an overpriced cafe. We spent twice as much for burgers as we would have about anywhere else, and they were just ok at best. The doughnuts were the best part, but noth...

I was there in May 2017 ending up a mission trip with my seminary. We stopped here and I spend more money than I anticipated, but I got a great Stetson hat and some cool jewelry and books. Definitely would recommend it for anyone that likes to visit SD.

There is so much hype about Wall Drug that we figured we were this far into South Dakota we had to stop. I guess that this just is not my thing. It is so far from anything that I want to do that while I can usually make any experience fun, I had a real hard time doing that.

I was amazed that th...
