Peter's Drive In Reviews

Fast efficient service even though there are lots of people!

Best shake, ever. The hamburger was great. Awesome onion rings

waited 25 minutes to see others get their food before mine. When food arrived, it was not plain with sauce as requested. Solid first experience. 1 star is minimum, i wish i could give zero.

Also please clean up dirty napkins and ketchup packets on windowsill. How clean is your restaurant if you cant clean something visible to customers?

A classic staple of Calgary. One of my first introductions to the city.. overall watching Peters go from what I saw almost 10 years ago to what it is now; Sure it's still good however it certainly has lost quality and care over the last few years.

A great place to go for an amazing burger and jumbo bag of fries.

Great food and lots of selection. Great milkshake selection. A Calgary classic

It's hilarious that everyone is wearing scrubs, I need 20cc s of katchup. Stat!

Have not been here in awhile, food still good, burgers and fries a bit different but I still enjoy the food and the milkshakes. Forgot how many flavors there are to choose from. I will be back again !

I feel like I can get better burgers anywhere else. Parties were very small and lacked any flavour. Soggy too. Cafeteria quality.

Delicious old school no-nonsense burgers and fresh cut fries to die for

Great place! I LOVE their shakes and their fries are top quality. Lines are long but the food is definately worth the wait

Food is usually pretty good. They really need to add a kids meal to the menu though especially since the price increase the portion size seems to be less eash time. Will be less likely to keep going back when we have to go elsewhere to get something for our kids. Also please add the sign back to when coming into the drivethu line, taking way to long to get through the lineup now.

Yummy
Always
Miss the old potato wedgie fries
That's why we did not order fries this time

Now this is my ultimate favorite, my go to shake place, that a great burger on the go and fries that are bottomless, my kids still love the hot dog though lol

The burger has good sauce, but patty doesn't taste as good as Wendy's.

Staple burger joint in Calgary. Large portions, legendary milkshakes.

Great milkshakes. Friees and onion rings are bigger than you think but great for sharing.

The last time I'm going to this place for food. It's a joke. Ordered 2 hotdogs. Only lettuce, tomato and banana peppers. Get home, hotdogs are a soggy, nasty mess, covered in relish and 'Peters' sauce (ketchup). Why? Because they INSIST on including a standard list of these condiments on every hotdog and burger. So, when you ask for the toppings that YOU want, you will get either a) only the toppings you want or b)all of the standard toppings, PLUS the ones you want. I got b). For the last time, I got the soggy mess of b), despite me being clear when I ordered it. Peters owners: Scrap the standard toppings so that it does not become a game of chance whenever you order. It shouldn't be a fight every time you order to ensure that you're getting what you want instead of what Peters wants you to have.

Great portion and value for the cost
And the foods great.

I don't get it. I really don't. I know it's a Calgary icon, but the burgers aren't as spectacular as many make them out to be. I still go to take people when people want to see what the fuss is about Milkshakes are decent and the portions for fries are good. It really depends on what your tastes are AND if you're willing to stay in line.

Despite the new intercom it still takes a long time, otherwise the food is consistently good

Hadn't been to Peter's drive in for years as we live out of town.
Was going by and was hungry so pulled in and had a double burger and onion rings...was awesome. And filling...more rings then anywhere... likely 3 times what u get at A&W...and better

You have to eat at this Calgary institution. They have Great burgers and fries and super thick milkshakes. My favorite here is a Large Chocolate Shake.

Slow service and it is getting really expensive here

Food is always good, service is always quick, staff is super friendly.

It's not great food, not even great service, but if you're going to go to Calgary you have to make a stop here.

Milkshakes are still good, but expect a line up when it's warm out, even at 11PM. Do yourself a favour, park and go to the walk up windows.

Burgers were decent, milkshake was great and service was quick.

Great place for some local fast food! The shakes are very thick, & the onion rings are great!

They know what they are good at and they stick to it. If greasy burgers, tasty fries and think milkshakes are your thing Peters will be your new favourite.

Greatest shakes in Calgary, burgers are also fantastic.

Definitely one of the mist go places in Calgary especially if your traveling. There is only one.

Very good milkshakes, with around 30 flavours and endless combinations. The food is classic greasy yet delicious drive through style food, and reasonably priced. Be prepared for a wait whether you go drive through or walk up, but walk up is generally quicker. Summer time waits can reach upwards of 20 minutes. Plenty of outdoor space to sit and enjoy.

So many milkshake choices. Mango coconut is my new favourite

This is a standard for twice a year visit. Darn it's good and it's been that way for the better part of 50 years of my life. Awesome

A classic Calgary institution. Not the best but better than most.

Awesome milkshakes! Onion rigns and Burgers! I'm in Calgary about 1 time a year and everytime we stop by at Peters' to buy milkshakes at least.

Nice place to get milkshakes and food. The burger and fries I had were good but nothing special. The milkshakes are incredible though!

We stop here every time we go to Calgary. Their burgers are so good and the lineups are always huge and that in itself tells you how good they are. Their menu is simple, however, the milkshake flavour choices are huge. Definitely good stuff!

the iconic Peters drive in I don't know how many times I've been here but I've never left unsatisfied the value-added the food is great. Definitely worth making. Highly recommend one of the finest flavors of milkshakes

Peters' is an absolute must if you're visiting the city. It's a Calgary institution and always a great treat. With such an amazing reputation, you're going to spend some time in line, but not to worry, the professional staff here (who dress in scrubs) know how to keep the line moving and your wait times low. Huge portions are a staple of the Peters' experience and one small fry order will easily satisfy two people. Try the lemon milkshake! It sounds weird, but it's a winner!

Always a great experience here, great bang for your buck compared to fast food chains!

Very good fries. Great service. Milkshakes are blended very well and every flavor is good and they take almost all payment methods

Few things are as venerable and iconically Calgarian as Peters'.

Great cheese burgers and Chocolate Milkshakes. Other stuff as well

They are overrated and have raised their prices dramatically. God All they care about is profit and not quality.

A delightful woman named CELESTE went over and above to assist my wife on burger toppings. We both tried the onion rings and gosh, I m glad the onions weren t spicy! Highly recommend.

Very good shakes, very affordable price, their products are worth trying, although due to the high demand they have, you have to wait at least 10 minutes for your turn to arrive. The wait is worth it.

Overrated. Honeslty one of the worst burgers I've ever had. Their milkshakes are good, that's about it.

A staple institution in Calgary! Best. milkshakes. ever.

Excellent milkshakes, good fries, onion rings fine, burgers mediocre. They claim all burgers are made fresh each day, but the patties are more or less identical to frozen McCain patties; the "Peter sauce" reminded me of generic Kraft BBQ sauce. Worth going for the milkshakes alone.

Not as good as it once was but as good once as it ever was. Also the onion rings are the best in town.

They still make a great milkshake, worth a visit although on a weekend be prepared for a line.

Great milkshakes. Most people don't know but you can get a small size that is still huge but more manageable.

Amazing milkshakes!! Decent fries and burgers, great portions and prices!
