    Ice cream, service and ambiance were perfect! Staff was friendly and professional. Service was fast and efficient. Ambience was calm and they played some great music, not noisy. Their bathrooms were very clean. This spot is definitely going on our favorite places to eat list. Thank you.

    Workers were nice and the food was cheap and filled us up. We got the 2 for 6 and YUMM. Its a cute little route 66 joint. May have to come back for that Fanta freeze.

    Amazing food!!! Holy moly!! Got a shake and tenders delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was in Barstow for the very first time a few weeks ago and it was a pretty interesting experience. I was under the impression Barstow was a small city but in actuality it's kind of a ghost town. We headed downtown in hopes of getting some food but the abandon buildings and empty parking lots told us hitting a drive through would be the best bet so we are very lucky to come across Fosters Freeze! This place looked straight out of the eighties and even though I've been to California many times, I don't think I've ever noticed this chain until now, so I was happy to check this place out! I ended up ordering the cheeseburger melt combo meal with french fries and the price was pretty similar to most other fast food places. We placed our order and pulled up to the window where we did sit for roughly five minutes, so I'm assuming food is made fresh here and that's something I can appreciate. The food itself was pretty darn good too! The cheeseburger melt was pretty large, flavourful, and tasted really good. The french fries were something you would expect from a small time burger place and let me tell you, they were really good. Overall, Fosters Freeze is a solid place to come for lunch, and definitely a good place to get food in Barstow. Was the place new and updated? no, but who cares? The food was good and it's definitely a golden star in what Downtown Barstow is these days, so if you want some food, come and grab a burger!

    Lots of smaller tables - 7/20/21 - this one's a bigger one

    We were safe after having our tire blowout on the freeway. We found a shop that had tires for our car- they recommended a bigger tire, so we went with them. It would be some time, so we came here to eat. We had other options like a mexican restaurant, but I liked that this was down the block from the tire shop. We each had a sandwich. I had the CA Grilled Chicken, hubby and son had a burger. We split the fries. It was $24.32. We ate inside. I enjoyed it. Hubby and I split the burger and the chicken sandwich. If it isn't over greasy, then it's good for me (ever since I was pregnant, my system doesn't tolerate the greasy stuff). Our son can have regular sized portions now. He loves meat, our little carnivore. The fries were good. There was another party next to us at a table. This was very popular. Lots of people coming inside to order and eat; maybe there were more to-go orders. I think that there is also a drive-thru window. (I didn't think that there was one back home until I checked Yelp, but it's way on the other side of town.)

    People are missing out on America's fast foods if they haven't been here. It's a sit-in/dine-in location with outdoor seats/tables too. Cute bar stools with beautiful/cute vibes. Customers enjoying ice cream cones and happy fast foods. No, you don't need to eat junk foods every day or week in your life, but if you're on a road trip around here, this would be a very ideal stop in a great little section of town. Burgers, hot dogs, potato fries, patty melt, burrito, sundaes, milkshakes, etc. Great selections. Felt like eating the old elementary public school lunches again. Yes, high calories that you can burn on the roads. These old school stops are low in prices and are worth it. Interior was well decorated with Route 66 signs and props. Exterior looks decent with lots of parking spots. Drive in area is always packed, but this street is so much better than restaurants near gas stations. It was very decent, organized & had clean gender neutral restrooms. Good customer service and great management. Near old railroads and bridge paths. Not far from traditional Route 66 Mother Road museum site. It's a very happy American food place. We'll likely be back in another week or two while passing through again. Love it!

    This is a 5-star, small town, fast food joint. The food is well prepared and fresh. The venue is quite clean; a marvel since it is frequented by kids after sports events. The employees are great and take pride in a job well done. Today, I am particularly impressed by Destiny, Matt, Chris,and Anthony. Matt, especially, seems super focused on making flavorful food. He impresses. This go-round, I wish to sing the praises of the oft-ignored hot dog. I am a fan of these creations and Foster's does it right. A toasted bun which Nestle's a perfectly grilled dog, covered in a pile of grilled onions and condiments... Yummy! The espresso freeze is a must have. Forget the $7 milkshake at Starbucks: this is the real thing and, no true comparison. Anyone driving thru Barstow: this place is worth the few minute detour from the freeway. Locals: don't forget that we have a few gems in a sea of sameness.

    I love Freddy's and there is not one close to me- so if I can I try to find them on road trips…read more We normally stop at the one in Victorville - but it is hard to get to from the freeway depending on which direction you are coming from, so I was pleased to see there was another option in Barstow The Barstow location is smaller than the Victorville one but don't let that deter you! We found parking easily and walked on - as soon as we walked in we were greeted warmly - always a good sign! The inside was very clean - it took us a minute to remember the menu because we don't get there often. Ordering was easy and the person at the counter was super friendly! Food was made quickly and was very tasty, hot and fresh! When we were finished I went to thrown our trash and put the tray back and I noticed the gentleman who was making the food and told him everything was delicious! He was very friendly Would definitely stop here again

    This has become our recent go-to stop when driving between Southern California and Las Vegas;…read morehowever, recent events have changed that decision. First, and probably the most important, they don't have Diet Pepsi, but Pepsi Zero. And Pepsi Zero is just awful. And yes, I tried it. I admit that I'm a fan of Coke products, but I'll survive on Diet Pepsi, never, but never Pepsi Zero. So that alone makes me not want to come here anymore. This trip, the girl taking our order seemed confused. Maybe she was new? But it didn't help that we had to explain we wanted a bowl of Chili, and even though it's not on the menu, they could sell it. I personally didn't want a burger this time, so I ordered a chicken sandwich, which is basically just chicken tenders on a bun. Not very impressed, but it wasn't as bad as Pepsi Zero. They do get credit for having a "senior" menu, which I ordered from. And I appreciate that they have tater tots. It seemed like a smaller portion, but it was actually perfect for me. I'll keep checking back, but if I see they still only serve Pepsi Zero, I might be walking over the McD's for my drink.
