Decent little fast food joint. They are reasonably priced and their onion rings are pretty amazing. They can/will make custom shakes for you. Their burgers don't seem to be as greasy as McDonald's or any of the other fast food places. This is always a hit with my daughter because the kids meals come with a coupon for a free ice cream bar.

Food is great but pricy.

Food is great but pricy.
My only complaint is that they are not doing refills because of the covid situation which I understand but we had to buy a whole other drink instead. If you not offering refills maybe you can put something into place so we don't have to pay full price for another drink, offering a 2nd drink at a discount would be my suggestion.

Dear Paces ownership,

Dear Paces ownership,

We were regular customers to your store for years before moving out of state a while back. We remember when your store opened in Layton and how excited everyone was.

Our family digs the old-fashioned diner experience as well as the food, which is always cooked fresh and tastes superb.

We stopped in this past weekend, during our brief visit back home and everything was still fantastic.

The staff does such a great job. Their friendliness and attention to detail is much appreciated.

I wish your eatery continued success and hope you'll branch out in the future. Fort Collins sure could use a franchise like yours as there's nothing like it out here. These folks haven't even heard of fry sauce, lol.

My family and I love Pace's. For years we would travel down to the bountiful (and then the only location) Pace's and get great food. But I have to say that as the years have passed the quality of the bountiful location has gone seriously down hill. The teenagers that work there now are not very friendly or helpful. They are also slow and don't make very good burgers. I also can't get a decent malt from them anymore! The last time I went there for a Chocolate Malt there wasn't a single taste of malt to be found. It was just a semi-chocolaty shake. When I challenged the kid who had took my order I slowly found out that he really didn't know what a malt was! He assumed it was just more chocolate in the shake. Double face palm.

Now, the experiences I have had at the Layton Pace's have been far superior. They are always friendly and fast and my malts are malty! When I worked close by several years ago I would usually go once a week. I have NEVER had a bad experience here. I'm not sure if it's the same family that runs the two places, but if so your bountiful location could learn a thing or two from the Layton location! Keep up the good work!

I didn't know a burger could be that thin . I could not tell i was eating a burger with all the lettuce and sauce. Chocolate Shake was so thick could bot drink through straw and did not taste like real Chocolate actually did not even taste like artificial either.
What a let down . How about a fresh thick Burger not a paper thin frozen one .and Real Chocolate Very disappointed

We stop and eat at Pace's when ever we are in Layton. I like the food there a lot and it's not a chain. Very good ice cream treats and such. Only complaint is that the burger patties are small but I always get a double.

I want so bad to love this place! But the management is terrible. The food is okay, the popsicles are awesome, ice cream is pretty good and old school enough to be unique, but they mess up my order EVERY time and then all but blame me, the customer, that they got it wrong. They once told me i didn t talk loud enough at the drive though so they got it wrong... i avoid going here if i can the ones in Bountiful or Clearfield must be under different management because they don t seem to have the same problems... they charge for extra fry sauce in Layton too, the manager told me that all the gourmet burger places do. I literally started laughing and could not voice my dismay that they thought the were a gourmet burger place. There is more meat in a McDonald s happy meal. Again, food is pretty good but they have a huge opinion of themselves and are managed very poorly, customer is always wrong at Layton Paces.

They have a huge fly problem, there were dead flies in the booth I was sitting in.. I ve came here 3 times in the last couple months and always horrible flies buzzing in your food and it makes you lose your appetite , it s really gross. The service is okay and The food is alright , I love the ice cream more than anything. I hope they do something about all these flies

The food was really good. Fry sauce? Did not know that was a thing, yes please!!! Rainbow? Half slurpy half soft serve ice cream? Didn't know that was a thing, yes please. I got the chicken sandwich and it was so yummy. Best fries I have had in a long time. Will definitely go back when I'm visiting.

While visiting family in Layton, we decided to stop by Paces for their famous onion rings. The rings were a little greasy, but edible until we found a hair embedded in the batter of the rings. The only response from the teenage staff was "we're sorry"...no offer of a replacement or refund. Very unfriendly and definitely not helpful. Needless to say my expectations were not met and I will not be back.

The food is good but I don t think I ll return back! The employees are not wearing masks and whether this is a political stance or not, it s a serious health violation and I reported them to the county officials. As a healthcare professional I was shocked!

Customer service is great but every single time I go to the drive thru they melt the fry sauce cup on my fries. I really don't appreciate eating melted plastic on my fries because then I just wasted money on a meal I can't eat.

It's not too bad, the food was good and the diner is a little older feeling. It is great for a quick family bite to eat. This is not a bad place at all, it's a great mid-tier burger joint. But that is all it is.

Staff not wearing masks on 6/27. They state they don't "have to start wearing them until next week". What the heck? The pandemic is now 3+ months old. Why no masks until next week? Did not feel safe.

Can give In-N-Out a run for its money. They are literally neck and neck. The only difference is that wait for Pace's is relatively short. Me and my wife have been coming here ever since we moved to Layton. We will be a life long customer for sure.

For some reason I feel like the manager or owner of this Pace's has an obsession with young blonde teenagers. Every time I come here that is the entire staff, which no offence to them but you can tell how young they are simply based off of their complete lack of knowledge and work ethic. If they trained their staff properly I would be more inclined to change my review but I don't believe that is going to happen any time soon.
