I combined two flavors that had fruit in them, strawberries, blueberries, cake, it was fantastic.

Ask the ladies that work there some favor combination to try, they know how to mix the flavors to make a delicious shake.

I have been coming to Jigg's for almost four decades. As the area around it has changed many times…read moreover the years, this root beer stand has remained the same much like the historic houses on Holgate Avenue. Living in the big city and traveling the country I have eaten a lot of places and tried a lot of similar food but none within the concept that I have enjoyed like Jigg's. If I am in Defiance from spring to fall, I stop here whether I am hungry or not at least 3-4 times a year. Great root beer and awesome food. They do hot dogs, chilli dogs, shredded chicken, hot roast beef, ballreich chips, and a little bit more. What they do, they do well and their recipes have stood the test of time. They still have car hops and you can eat in or carryout. At Jigg's I like my dogs by the foot and I like to add onions and ketchup. (mustard only people are weird) If they aren't made fresh in house, I prefer all of my chips to be Ballreich. They offer all styles of Ohio Best Chips, but the best IMO are the original Ballreich, dill pickle, and BBQ. The BBQ Ballreich compliments the Jigg's chicken sandwich perfectly. While the names and the faces have changed over the years and the Putt-Putt and batting cages are no longer there, Jigg's has stood the test a time and should be considered an institution or rite of passage for everyone in Defiance. At Jigg's the food is priced right and has good value. This place is good for families, individuals, a high school date, lunch, a snack on your way home from work, or any time you are hungry. If you are a Defiance resident please keep this business going strong and if you are visiting or passing through town make it a point to eat at Jiggs and you will not be disappointed.

What a nice reward we got here at Eric's for going far out of the way to avoid the traffic on US23! I got 2 scoops of this homemade goodness in a cup: carrot cake (needs more carrot cake in it but still faithful to its namesake, with the carrot cake bits in a cream cheese flavored scoop) and Samoa, which was outstanding and tasted just like the beloved Girl Scout cookie. Other half got a vanilla/chocolate soft serve twist and he says flavor and texture were just fine. Doggies each a little bit of soft serve vanilla in a cup, which always elicit rave reviews and sleepy eclipse dogs for the ride home!

The girls…read morewere more interested in their conversation talking about the guy in drive thru than helping us and answering questions. Then acted like we were bothering them when we asked about actual ice cream flavors. Didn't know what was in two of the ones we asked about. Menu is hard to read. No visible list of flavors, it's on the sliding window in very small print and is in code names, supposed to be funny names which would be ok if you could see what it was or five a description. I've been in the car for two days and it has been hot. All we wanted was a cold ice cream cone on the way back to the room after dinner. We were told this was the place to go. After the disinterest in the two girls guessing what was in flavors, then one ran to the back screaming loudly about something...a text maybe....the other one got us our soft serve. Figured we couldn't go wrong there and we were right. It was good. And servings were large. Few more people came and got the same treatment. Poor giant preggo lady got a chili dog while we were eating our cones and waited forever for it. We all felt awful for her. I'd have like to try the ice cream bit we probably won't be back. This may be ok for small town people who know everyone's but for an outsider, go to DQ down the street. You'll at least know what you're getting.

Kissner's is a true Defiance staple--the oldest tavern in Ohio still owned by one family--and it…read moreshows in the warmth, consistency, and quality they've delivered for 95 years. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or late-night munchies, the full-service menu genuinely has something for everyone, from classic omelets to more adventurous options like pork brain. The ambience is part of the charm--it still has that same old flair, giving the space a nostalgic, welcoming feel that reflects its long history without feeling dated. I especially loved the little touches, like the coat and purse holders on the wall--if you blink, you might miss them (they were hidden under garland, lol). I had the Sizzling Boys Steak Hoagie with light onions and mushrooms, plus a side of Cheddar Cheese Curds--all excellent. Halfway through my meal, I couldn't resist stealing my partner's bacon and adding it to my hoagie... OMG, it took the flavor to the next level. Highly recommend that upgrade. Jake went with two French toasts, eggs, bacon, and waffle fries (subbed for home fries) and was just as impressed. The food was delicious across the board, and our waiter--whose name I unfortunately don't remember--was amazing and incredibly attentive. Great service, great food, and a timeless atmosphere--Kissner's absolutely lives up to its reputation.

I also suggest asking for the ice cream to be put in the next size cup so that the ice cream doesn't drip everywhere. My ice cream was dripping outside of my cup before we got to the car. We ended up taking our ice cream to go and sat down by the river at Independence Dam. It was nice! We will definitely be back again soon!
