It's an extremely busy place, even when it's not a busy time of day. The food is pretty mediocre, but the milkshakes are top notch. I wouldn't go for the food, but I will ALWAYS come for the milkshakes.
Decent service, large portions and GREAT milkshakes!!!
Peters drive in truly is a staple of Calgary's food culturr.
The long line-up, often extending into the TransCanada highway, confirms it's "the drive-in you can't drive by." Great milkshakes and lots of choices.
Omgosh so worth finding! The food is incredible and the milkshakes are unbelievable!
Awesome prices... that come with big portions of great food
Love the shakes....however the straw never seems to work so the spoon is the way to go
Love coming to this place. Burgers are always fresh, onion rings are good, and great selection of shakes.
Food was awesome tonight and even though there are nights the food isn't 100%, they still deserve a 5 star rating
The many flavours of milkshake are definitely a big draw to this establishment. I enjoy the burgers also. Now that I'm in Winnipeg I don't get to stop in as much but do try and make a stop while driving through.
You can never go wrong with one of their milkshakes.
Easily one of the best things about Calgary.
Simple food and great service.
Best fast food burgers in the world! I have always loved this place & shall continue to do so.
I usually just stick to the onion rings and milkshake, because the onion rings are huge and probably the best in the city, but I'll splurge on a burger every once in a while. Otherwise it's great to still have a drive-in in the city
Definitely not worth our $30 bill
Burgar: Not good at all
Soggy lettuce, soggy bun, luke warm.
Onion rings- decent but not the best.
Only thing this place is good for is the milkshake.
Since a child my family has been coming here and the burgers are still the same
Best milkshakes and hamburgers for a classic drive in experience.
Calgary mainstay, burgers and natural cut fries. Staff is friendly and everyone has a good time coming here.
Absolutely amazing burgers. The milkshakes are to die for
The milkshakes were delicious as always, they were pretty busy due to being drive thru only but the line moved pretty consistently and they got us through fairly quick
Excellent food! 30 different types of milkshakes and the burger's are to die for! Great choice and reasonably priced
Great milkshakes. I had a Strawberry Chocolate mix. They can mix up to 3 flavours. They have a ton of selection. It was a bit of a wait due to the lineups, but well worth the $5 shake
I love Peter's. I've been going since I was knee high to a grass hopper. The food is only marginally good however but I always went for dessert and milkshakes. The bannasplit and peanutbutter parfait are toot sweet. Kinda a pain in the ass to get to but grabbing a shake, chocolate dipped cone and heading over to the ridge and watching the fireworks is a great family activity.
The Original Peters Drive-In. Great place for burgers & shakes.
Always friendly. Love the customized desserts. I always change up the Banana splits with fudge , extra strawberries, etc. and no charge!
Haven't been in years but last time I was it was amazing!!! Milkshakes are to die for
Best milkshakes you'll ever have. Picked up lunch for a crowd of 15 and they got the whole order perfect and fast.
For real the best burgers I ve ever tried. The milkshakes are just amazing. I really recommend to try them.
Milkshake selection is second to none and the burgers are delicious. Good prices and great big portions.
Meh... We don't go as often as we once did... And I keep forgetting to just order the milkshake and forget about the rest of the menu.... The milkshakes are still as amazing as ever! I keep comparing the rest of the menu to how it was 'before'.....
Always great .... milkshakes perfect as always .... always busy but very friendly and quick service ...
It's a nice little dive in with mediocre food and fantastic milk shakes.
A Calgary Super-classic! Basically just shakes, burgers and fries. The shakes are the only reason this place is in business.
Slow service. It seems like they have cut their staff in half. You wait a long time to order, then you stand to the side and wait a long time for your order. Peter's was never this slow...not in the middle of summer during Stampede Week.
Peter's is great, I was surprised as how short the line up was for a Friday evening.
This is a great place for shakes, I can't talk about the food but the milkshakes are great.
Burgers are disgusting. Fries were good. Shake was mediocre. Over priced and way too long of a wait. Better places to eat.
Living across the road from this establishment resulted in the most satisfying drunken nights of my entire life.
I am speechless, I was accused, mistreated and threatened at Peter's by their security guard at near empty parking lot. I went there this evening around 7, planned to get a milkshake and my wife wanted bubble tea from next door. First thing I got out of the parking lot was their security guard came to me ask if I am getting Peter's or bubble tea, I told him Peter's, then he asked me to park somewhere else because this spot is reserved for employees as there are a lot of new employees in training, I looked around there were at least 5 empty spot in that roll. ok, fine, told my wife to park somewhere else while I slowly move away with an injured knee. we decided to get bubble tea first then grab milkshake on the way back. while slowly walking around the fence that security guard intercepted us with a smear on his face saying "obviously you are not getting peter's, you need to leave". I told him we are going to get bubble tea first then peter's. He said "YOU HAVE TO GET PETERS FIRST". I refused and he then proceed to threaten me by calling the toll truck.so I got milkshake and went back to the parking lot. while waiting for my wife to get bubble tea from next door, other cars parked at the first spot we parked, few others parked their car at Peter's and went somewhere else.
Amazing place. Definately try it out. Consumer service is amazing and everything is pretty cheap. Drinks are literally AMAZING! I always go here and always will!
Old fashion place, love the watermelon milk shake, just a bit too sweet for me.
One of Calgary's delicious burgers!
There are always lots of people and milkshakes are very famous.
All you have to do is take out and eat around on the bench.
There are two rows of drive-throughs that are always full.
The hamburger is a patty with a single burger that costs around $ 5 and it tastes good.
If you are a Korean, say everthing when you order a hamburger, or say the works. This will make lettuce tomatoes, fried onions, pickles, and banana pepper. When you put it all in, you can easily squeeze it. I eat with fried onions, letter and tomato additional NO sauce. Peter's sauce is a little salty.
It's a basic burger, but McDonald's burgers are much better to eat here than Peters.
Milkshakes are more expensive than $ 5, but the amount is huge and it's good enough to eat like ice cream.
French fries are also small, so it's better to eat onion rings than common fries.
The taste is okay. And cut the raw potatoes right away and fry. fresh.
-Warhol came here and worked here.
The quintessential Calgary drive-in experience. Best enjoyed on a hot summer night with friends.
I had a love affair with Peters' Drive-In for almost 50 years, but I am ready to cut the relationship as the last time the food was not good at all, no flavor whatsoever and the fries were bad that we throw away. The wait was 45 minutes which was not worth it...
Awesome milkshakes. Large servings of fries and onion rings
First time and last time there ...Customer serve wasn't pleasant....
Order plain cheese burger got a loaded burger ... brought it back only to get grief about it...
5 Guys Burger has them Beat for Burgers and Fries!!!
This place is a Calgary staple! Disappointed I couldn't order from the window, but understandable. Always worth the wait though
Wow this place is awsome. This is my first time in 3years after I moved to calgary. This is a nice place to grab and go when you don't feel like cooking. Best part is milkshakes with tons of flavours to choose from. Service is faster than I thought. Loved it
Well served, fast service but I did not like their shakes specifically their pinacolada it too sweet, taste like I'm drinking ice cream with sugar.
Shakes are still good. The rest is risking food poisoning.
Waited close to 15 min for order of fries and milkshake was good once I got them
Long line up. 24 minutes ina car.No walk up to window. Why not ? Put in an intercom ffs. DQ is just one block north and its fresh & delicious.
Not happy in drive thru for over45 minutes. Service has gone downhill. RIDICULOUS
Quality has really degraded, I use to enjoy their onion ring so much, but now I am not seeing the same quality. Guys please pull up ur socks and bring back the old flavors.
Their burgers and shakes are awesome! Don't forget the fries...
Fantastic! Worth the wait. The new-to-me veggie burgers are soy based.
