11 of Eastern Washington’s Best Restaurants - Eater Seattle

"Since Miner’s Drive-In Restaurant opened in 1948 it has attracted diners from across the state and developed a cult following thanks to the busloads of school kids on their way home from class trips and sports. Not much has changed in the intervening years; the popular pit stop specializes in giant meals at an affordable price, primarily classic burgers and sandwiches, though the menu also features a variety of salads, seafood, and other less-common drive-in finds. In addition to the flagship Big Miner Burger, you should turn your attention to the chicken burger, slaw chili dog, and milkshakes." - Teo Bicchieri

The burgers are huge! You definitely get your moneys worth. The service was friendly and fast. They have a large menu so lots of different items to choose from. The outdoor seating is perfect for the summer days. Great place for families.

Great service, amazing atmosphere. I messed up and thought I didn't get the right amount of change. The person was willing to fix it and then I found the change my other pocket. Darn scrubs. They handled it perfectly. My apologies again and again. This is the perfect place for a large group to meet and eat.

This place is okay. Every negative thing I could think of was countered with a positive when I was thinking about this review. Some of the positives: 1) The portions are enormous! Their Miner's double-fed me for three meals. The order of fries would also feed three people. The milkshake was also enough for three people. 2) The topping on the burger was fresh and crisp. 3) Their sauces are great tasting. 4) Their staff was friendly and quick. Some of the negatives: 1) The fries tasted old. 2) The burger patty was bland. It tasted like there was no salt or any seasoning in it. However, this was counterbalanced by using their sauces. 3) It messed up my stomach. This one was weird. My stomach didn't hurt; it felt hard with a mix of bloating. I didn't feel sick, just uncomfortable (and we only ate 1/3 of the meal). My wife had the same reaction. I've never had a burger do this to me. 4) Their milkshake was so thick that their straw would collapse when trying to drink it. In other words, they use cheap straws and don't thin the milkshake enough. They can correct this by either getting better straws of providing a spoon with the shake. Overall, I won't go back, just due to my stomach issues, but your experience may vary.

Was told this was a staple of Yakima and that I had to try it. I was not disappointed at all the food was amazing the portion sizes were huge for the price. I got a double-miner burger, tots, and shake. The food was hot and well cooked. I will be back for more for sure while I stay here.

Old school drive Inn burger joint! Super big burgers and fries! Portions are huge. They have specialty milkshakes and malts over 25 flavors. Great outdoor sitting too. Lots of room for big groups. Very busy on weekends but super fast service and very polite service. Wish it was closer to home.

Delicious and huge portions. I had the Chicken Garden Salad and my husband had the nachos supreme. All were enormous and plenty for 2 people.

I had heard a lot about Minors in Yakima and knew I had to visit this iconic spot. Sitting in the drive-thru, I noticed several nearby burger places and hesitated a bit, especially since the prices seemed a little high. However, once I received my burger, I was thoroughly impressed—it was huge and could easily feed two people, assuming you're not absolutely starving. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the whole experience made me eager to return. One note: I didn’t go inside the restaurant, so I can’t speak to the dine-in experience. I only used the drive-thru. That said, I highly recommend this place!

Stopped in for dinner while on an adventure in Yakima because I was told they have the best hamburgers anywhere.. " bold statement" Well it was absolutely delicious, the best fast food Hamburger I have ever eaten.. it was huge and made just right the way I wanted it. The place was really busy and still ran smoothly, clean and well organized. I highly recommend stopping by and checking it out for yourself sometime.
