Peter's Drive In Reviews

Not that great. The food was okay, it took forever, and the service was borderline-rude. I wouldn't come back.

Peters' is always a classic Calgary Staple. The burgers are fine, but the shakes are excellent. I'd recommend that Peters invest in larger and sturdier straws

The food is always great, the milkshakes are amazing however they are almost impossible to drink until about a half hour after buying them.

Good milkshake Average burger, average onion rings

Food is great, milk shakes are well done with variety.

Good for the family with varieties of flavor to choose from

Where else are you gonna get banana caramel shakes?

A Calgary classic.
Great milkshakes and the servings of fries are massive!
A great experience makes it worth the visit, but if we're honest you aren't coming here for quality or good prices.

Absolutely one of the best places in town! Milkshakes are fantastic and the lemonade is second to none. The food is not the best ever but it doesnt disappoint. Its always insanely busy so if you get into the drive thru and arent waiting around the corner onto 16th consider yourself lucky!

I dont get why this place has a review greater then 4 honestly. I guess if you like your burgers/freis greasy and cheap...but then theres McDonald's and you can actually get fresh fries. The shakes are far too sweet and the consistency of soft serve which makes sense.

Best onion rings burgers and milkshakes in ghe province.

Always has fantastic burgers, shakes, fries and onion rings.

My boyfriend and I went here after not being to peters in years. For $35 we received 2 disgusting, sloppy, flavorless burgers, mediocre fries and milkshakes. I wouldn't waste your time or money going here, new ownership and rhe place has done nothing but go downhill.

Amazing milkshakes bit still not as good as it used to be

Food was ok but it was a little expensive and really slow service..

Great place for milkshakes! Onion rings are decent too!

Best onion rings ever, brings a lot of memories. Thank you Peter

Definitely not worth the wait. I will never go back.

I ve read great things about this gem and they re all true! Service is friendly even when the lines are off the road. The lines could have a bit more management though as people tend to crowd around the order windows after they ve placed an order; this makes others waiting to place an order wait behind people who have already taken theirs.

Super busy spot, but this doesn t mean you ll be waiting a long time for your food. Take-out is supposed to be fast and Peters Drive-In lives up to it.

Lots of tables to sit at that are not under the roof.
Luckily I was able to grab some food while the weather wasn t as cold as it is now. Will definitely be coming back for the winter months in a car so I can have that drive-in experience.
The milkshakes are amazing, and the sundaes are to die for. PS I saw a lady walking away with a small ice cream cone it was massive. This place goes above and beyond for the servings of food they give out.
Definitely a spot you need to eat at when you re in Calgary.

If you need a good greasy hangover meal this is the place to go. Very quick service and you have to get a milk shake there amazing.

Great food. But line management is always an issue.

I have loved Peters since I first went there. Fantastic drive thru feel and attention to making their product taste great. A must visit location if you are passing through town.

Everything was awesome, just a lot of wasps at some of the tables. If you get your good then walk or drive to crescent hull it's more chill

Had a hamburger and rings in Calgary. The burger was the worst I have ever gotten at a restaurant. Wasn't warm enough to melt the slice of plastic cheez that was on top of the patty. Covered in a nondescript red sauce lacking any flavor. The only reason it gets one star is the portion was big (the rings were served in a bucket)

It's simply the most delicious burger, onion rings and milkshake in town?

The burgers are average, the milkshake was good, and heaps of fries. Beats an hour wait in Edmonton

Famous for hamburgers and milkshakes.
Of course, we recommend hamburgers, milkshakes, and french fries.
The amount is large and the taste is good. Friendly and professional place.

Always a great visit with awesome milkshakes. This time the onion rings were undercooked :(

There is no comparison between Peters and any place else. This is an old school drive-in burger and shake place. Simply awesome.

They changed burger ...Patty's are now as thin as McDonalds not as good as they used to be

Favorite place in town to grab a burger.... not to mention the mountain of fries!

Best Milkshakes in town with up to three flavours to combine, so hundreds of combinations. Always an adventure to discover new flavours to make a unique experience everytime. Other menu items are top notch taste also.

Whenever I am in Calgary I always stop off a Peter's Drive-In for a Double CheeseBurger and a Banana Milkshake. I have been going there since I lived in Calgary after highschool and it was a small building across the street.

Love this fast food burger joint the shakes are amazing the new fries are good but still need to cook a little longer.

Perfect milkshakes with an almost infinite combination of flavours. The burgers are only average in comparison.

Delicious burgers and onion rings. The poutine was just alright (a little soggy). My milkshake was just okay but that was probably the flavour I chose - my bf was very happy with his choice. Quick service!

A burger fast food chain part of Calgary's history and tradition

Good selection of gluten free food (fries, poutine and most milkshakes, plus burgers could be lettuce wrapped). The classic drive in joint is home to great fries and even better milk shakes! My only wish from this place would be to serve gluten free burger buns (like smashburger).

Peters' drive thru has been open in Calgary for more than 50 years and as a walk up or drive thru its won the hearts of many. Red Deer's is gaining popularity like it. Burgers and fries are very average here and I often eat such food elsewhere. However ice cream dishes and milkshakes (up to 2500 combinations of flavours) have kept me returning since 2003.

We waited in line with no path to escape for 29 minutes. My cheese on my hot dog was not even melted. The onion rings were not even really hot. My husband enjoyed his burger. Something has to quicken the service , whom ever is cooking should make sure the meat is hot enough to melt the cheese, if you are putting cheese on after and not during.
The pina colada milk shake was tasty that my husband had. That would get 5 stars.

Stop reading the reviews and just go if you haven't been, it's worth it.

Fries could be better, burgers are just standard quality and milkshakes are sooooooo good!

Best milkshakes you can get anywhere in Calgary, always have been and probably always will be!

Has an classic feel to all of it's good and the milkshakes are amazing

This place is my jam. I love the milkshakes, I like the burgers and I adore their onion rings. The staff is super awesome and they are extremely efficient for the amount of people that go through. Their burgers and fries aren't as good as their onions rings and milkshakes however. At least the portion sizes are ridiculous haha. Still better than most fast food places!

Awesome Shakes and Burgers! Great place to stop by when hanging out with friends. Regular attendee.

Over rated!! I swear the burgers are the pre cooked m&m meats burgers. Milkshakes are great though!

We love this place...........it is busy but worth it

A favorite for over 50 years .
Love the picnic tables and food is great don't order large fries not unless you want some to bring home .And shakes are great

The Shakes are good, the food is average. Peter's Drive in has always had a craze about it in the city, always seems to have a lineup. Do not order of bag of fries unless you are sharing them, its huge.

Fries weren't great but shake was amazing. Burger not bad

Waited and watched as 10 people got the orders prior to me and my burger wasn't made how I asked. Not a good experience for me

Old fashioned kool portions are well worth the money lineups long but fast and pretty good
