    Friendly staff at the A & W Restaurant that was next to the Mizpah Hotel in Tonopah. Menu is consistent with the A & W Restaurants I've visited elsewhere. The greyness of the restaurant made it feel a bit dim inside but the tables/chairs were clean. And, we got our food soon after ordering. We enjoyed our money cheese hot dog, chicken sliders, fries, and root beer.

    Strawberry ice cream shake.  Perfection.

    We saw this A&W classic while walking on Main Street in downtown Tonopah, Nevada. After two disappointing ventures in local cuisine, I was just going to get a milkshake. I ended up rather enjoying the cheeseburger and the fries were fresh. Just not my favorite style. The cashier was wonderful. I would definitely go back! I did go back. The second time back, I got another shake. Just as good as the first! We were* going to buy the little root beer mug/ glass as a souvenir, in which they had available. This cashier however, was quite rude, said they were closing & we couldn't get the glass / after just informing us of the cost, basically kicked us out so ... I don't understand that. I suppose the service is 'hit or miss'. The ambience is that of a fast food joint set in a casino type building off the main road. Down the stairs there's a ladies room which is so much nicer than I was expecting. Hope this helps ;)

    So good!!!

    Great, friendly service. Fun chili cheese dogs and fries. And, of course, the best rootbeer in a giant chilled mug! So fun!

    WTF is this?

    This particular A&W has been going downhill. I don't know what they served me, but that does not look like what I ordered. At least they have a messed up the chicken tenders yet.

    This is the best place we have found to eat while charging our tesla and getting back on the road quickly. We have stopped several times and it is always clean.

    I just visited this location on Monday and my experience was great! The staff were very kind and the place was clean. I enjoyed the food as well! The cashier was a very sweet young lady and she complimented me saying I was very pretty and looked like a superstar :) I didn't get a chance to ask her name.

    The staff and fellow guests were so kind and helpful. From meal suggestions to driving directions. The food was freshly prepared and delicious This soda was the so good, for those that know me; they know I don't ever drink soda pop.

    Visited there 10/7. I ordered a single tender and after hearing their list of sauces, I asked for ranch & also added a Spicy Papa Sauce too. No mention that the SPS was $.69. As they were starting to deliver drinks & part of our order, they mentioned they were out of the SPS. No problem, I ordered 1 finger, ranch was perfectly fine. No idea at this point that I was charged for the SPS sauce. As I glance at my receipt, that's when I realized they charged me $.69 for the SPS. After learning I was charged for a sauce they were out of, I went to the clerk at the register (Stacie) to get my refund. Principle here folks. She gave me a song & dance about how they were then charging me for ranch then. Receipt says Ranch $.00. Also stated BBQ sauce was $.00 on receipt. Was not in the mood to argue. We also ordered 2 Root Beer Floats, did not get 2 .. 1 was a freeze instead. Food was ho-hum. Probably won't go back.

    Cool place. Tastes like the A&W of my childhood. Chilled frosty mugs and root beer made in site.

    Honestly it was better than I expected. Great for passing through and getting fast food that isn't dry or too greasy.

    The chicken tenders are fantastic and juicy, the burgers are perfect, and the root beer floats are to die for.

    Stop by on the way to lake Tahoe and ordered rotisserie chicken and half slab of ribs…read more Ribs are good but rotisserie chicken is a MUST!! So tender and moist. Sides are good, cilantro like rice and ranch bean are good complement. Ended up stopping by on the way back and only had the whole rotisserie. So good. Will be our stopping ground if we go up to Lake Tahoe again.

    Why did we eat here? - Schats Roadhouse is located in Bishop, California. We were here to bike…read moreWhite Mountain, and visited legendary Erick Schat's Bakkerÿ. The bakery has so many different breads, cookies, pastries and more. The problem with the bakery is that there are no price tags. It was a no brainer to try his restaurant. Menu is fairly wide ranging - burgers to steak to salads and more. Limited options for vegetarians. The food was slightly above average and prices were reasonable. We didn't expect foodie quality eats here. You place an order at the counter and food is brought to you. Service was pretty much non existent. Food Review: Rotisserie Chicken Half ($17.95) is one of their signature dishes and comes with 2 large sides. We choose lime cilantro rice and black beans. The chicken was average, slightly overcooked and included a tortilla and pico pico. 7.5/10 Broccoli Side ($1.95) was huge portion of perfectly healthy broccoli. 9/10 Garden Salad ($10.95) is pretty average but of large size. 7.5/10 Overall - Good Food - Good Decor - Good Service - Good Value - Excellent Would we return? - Maybe
