Got 8 huckleberry shakes on our tour from Jackson to Big Sky! Great place to pick up sweets and deep fried goodies for any road trip. Staff are SUPER friendly! Bottom Line: Will upgrade my shake to large the next time we come around! read more

Awesome diner-style food with a fun atmosphere! The staff were super friendly and the food was great. read more

Frostop Drive In - Fish & Chips Near Me - Ashton, Idaho

I've been stopping here with my family since I was a wee little kid whenever the family road trip down highway twenty allowed. It's been awhile since I've been here but it was all I remembered. For this blip on the highway, it's a MUST stop. At the very least pull in and get a milkshake (I recommend a huckleberry or chocolate), or a rootbeer float, or you should really just get both. You wont be disappointed. I promise you that. They have a small put varied menu of delicious food-- hamburgers, hot dogs, fried fish, salmon sandwiches (all fish is local from the snake river), soup and salads. I had a burger with a slice of ham on top with a side of tatter-tots. And don't forget to try the fry sauce, it's good. My sister had a Salmon Sandwich, which was moist and flaky. My father had a Fish Basket that he enjoyed as well. Everyone's meal was delicious after day of walking in Yellowstone National Park. You got to stop here! read more

Looking for good food in a small town. Stopped at this road side restaurant. Neat little "shack" feeling. Ordered the Halibut sandwich special, choice of french fries or "tots", with good old root bear-$8.99 (it seems like this is the going rate for combo). Loved the tots, haven't had tots for a long time. Halibut was nice and flaky (you know it's not from the freezer). No hurry in this restaurant. Take your time. I took pictures of the bear holding the salt and pepper. It's so cute. They actually sell them, as well as the flowers for the hair. Neat to be in a small town, feeling welcomed. You can actually eat in your car with car service, but why not get your b---- out of the car meet some strangers? If only I had two stomachs, I would have tried their cold fruit soup, sounded really good. read more

This place is awesome. The Huckleberry Shake is life changing. This is quintessential America.

Wasn't impressed. Ordered a grilled cheese, the cheese wasn't even melted! It took one bite and it did not taste good, it had way too much butter. The tater tots were okay. My husband ordered a hamburger and fries. Too pricey. Not worth it. read more

awesome find of this place in the middle of 'no where'! decided to explore a little outside of YNP and found this place, you can't miss it! everything we had was awesome, have to tried the tots AND the idaho potato fries - so yummy! root beer floats is a must too. friendly services... the restroom door is a little tricky though, make sure you lock it tight - sorry to the guy whoever ran into me doing my business - wasn't intentional! read more

We stopped in for lunch today and had a tasty burger, delicious root beer float, and an amazing strawberry shake. They were busy with only one waitress outside, but she did a great job! read more

Stopped in pretty excited and also to support local. We got sat in a booth with three garbage cans all within arms length of our booth. Flies were all over the place and we had to keep swatting them away. It felt like there was no air conditioning and it was about 94 degrees outside and we were melting. The server was nice enough but we ended up waiting about 40 minutes for 2 kids meals and a burger. Food was pretty decent ,the usual kind of burger fare you might expect. Probably would have tasted a lot better if were were not swatting away flies in 90 degree heat. Pretty bummed cause we usually love these kind of holes in the wall. read more

We had a great time visiting this spot during our vacation. Collectively we came 5 times. The staff was so beyond friendly and accommodating to our family, especially the little ones! They were able to interact with the staff. I'd give them 6 stars if I could. It was a pleasure to dine here--not just the friendly service but the food and ice cream was great too! read more

we wated 2 hours for our food. and when we got it, it wasn't even hot. We wated an hour to get a shake. If you are trying to get food fast don't come here. If I could I would give 0 stars but that's not an option. read more

Place was delish for lunch, burger and Huckleberry shake (oh yeah). Next day (Monday night) went back for a quick shake around 815pm. 3-4 Girls were playing with dish soap in the back while 2 were busy running around working the customers that come in right before closing. We ended up leaving after about 10 min of waiting with no service. Call out to the burdette with a red bandana and a blond hard working young ladies. read more

Halibut and tots for me burger and tots for her. Both delicious. Great service. If you are passing through and hungry. This place won't disappoint! Do it! Too much to finish. read more

Try their Mushroom Swiss burger! It's delicious. It might be the first time I've had spinach on a mushroom Swiss and it did not disappoint. It was somehow lighter than most mushroom Swiss burgers in all the right ways. I highly recommend it! read more

Decent food, waitress down right rude. I'm not sure who runs this joint but when you have a bunch of teenage girls working for you, you might want to teach them how to treat customers. First we were asked to move our motorcycle which was fair enough and my husband obliged. Then we were gonna move seats to sit outside and we were told no its too confusing for them and their boss doesn't like it. My husband was gonna leave I said no, kinda wish we would have. After getting our food we were never checked on again. Horrible service. read more

Been rolling on the 20 through Ashton since 2003 and the Frosty Mug sign (been around since 1965) always caught my eye. I knew that someday I would stop at this little piece of Americana. I hit up Frostop back in 2015 after a day of fishing on the river. Family owned, it by no means like the other corporate dining spots one sees along the highway. Fast forward to 2017, I would visit again after building up a huge appetite while wetting lines all day in the Snake with a buddy of mine. It was busy for a Saturday night, so it took some time to get things rolling. I was hangry and began to think less of the experience. But once the following order was taken, things started happening. - Large Jalapeno Poppers, large, $5.49 - Large Battered Cheese Sticks, $5.49 - Frostop Burger-cheese, bacon, ham, beef with tots, $8.99 - Bacon Cheeseburger, $8.39 - Large Root Beer Float, $3.99 I went to use the restroom (located outside and in the back) and took my spot amongst the other traveling diners. When I came back to the table, the massive amount of food was on it's way out. I was dumbfounded by how quickly the food was prepared. It was delicious and we ate till our hearts content. After the burger, poppers, cheese sticks....sadly, I could not finish my tots. Before heading up the hill and continuing whatever your adventure might be, if your in need of some solid chow, pay the Frostop a visit. You can eat in your car or dine inside. It is a dining experience that is becoming a rare experience in many parts of the country. read more

Frost top left my pallet quaking with flavor, unequivocally busting, in particular, the blue bacon cheesburger. Let me tell ya, that blue cheese has just the right amount of STANK, and that freshly fried bacon will make your cheeks quiver with joy, I tell ya, could not have asked for a more homey experience. read more

it was too early in the morning to get a sandwich, but the Root Beer icon grabbed my eye while driving up to Montana. I had hoped it was their own root beer, but I think it was Barqs. It was good. Can anyone confirm the brand? read more

Great off the beaten path drive thru, good service, good food. I had the pastrami burger and my small family split a (not so) small shake. It was good. read more

Great food, and very friendly staff. The bacon on the bacon cheeseburger was , and you have to love the classic drive-in vibe.

We looked up the store hours online and the Apple Maps said they were open until 10. We showed up at 8:38 and one of the employees came up to us and very rudely asked how long we have been waiting. We told her we had just driven from Yellowstone to eat there. She said they were closed. We asked about the store hours posted online and she rolled her eyes and walked away. We had crying kids in the car and come a long way to have received such horrible service. We checked online and yelp had their store hours open until 9:00. To make things worse as we were leaving they started taking another cars order. They have lost my future business. read more

Four stars because the waitress and everyone was SO nice. I do think the hamburger Pattie's need to be thicker or the bread thinner. The ratio is kinda Blech. But gosh dang, everyone was so sweet! And I love that they have pizza as an option for the kids. read more

The young people working on 4th of July were friendly and very efficient. When we saw all the cars parked at the drive-in we figured we'd be waiting around a long while. But to our surprise, a young woman immediately attended to us, took our ice cream order and handed us the finished product in no time flat. Impressive! And when the youngest member of our party dropped his cone on the driveway, another young lady popped out the door and offered a fresh cone for the lad. Don't hesitate to stop even if it looks full. We will be back! read more

Great shakes and we had a really nice server. Way over priced though and the hamburgers were fair at best. Mostly bun and very little meat or toppings. I wanted it to be better because I love a good old fashioned drive in, but I won't be back. read more

If you are not from Ashton and you are just driving through.....you have to stop here! Get the shakes! So good! They are super nice and even though they get hundreds of people at lunch time you will get your food in a quick time! read more

We have never been to this place so after years of going to Big Judds, we decided to try Frostop. Staff are friendly and the prices are good, but we were very disappointed in the food. The hamburger patties are so thin you can almost see through them! They were very dry and no taste to the meat. The fries and tater tots were good though. We also ordered a huckleberry shake after being told it's a top seller. Berries were sour and the ice cream wasn't sweet at all. If you end up at Frostop, do yourself a favor and just order fries and a chocolate malt. read more

Burgers were not good. Halibut and shrimp were meh... the root beer and the floats were great that made up for the not so great food. We've driven by several time throughout the yrs going to and from Yellowstone. Needs a good cleaning on the tables and some better meat but the ice cream and drinks are good. The server was super nice! read more

A really nice surprise. The food was good and inexpensive ($8 or $9 fora platter including a drink, about $5 for kids' meals). The burgers were simple but tasty; the kids both had chicken nuggets and fries, and it was more than they could eat. I'll probably never be in the area again, but if I was, I would definitely go back. read more

There are places that try and reproduce and old timey atmosphere and then there are the places that are actually OLD. I don't think that the frost top has changed since 1940. It has a giant root beer float in effigy as a sign and everything comes with tots and fry sauce. The girls who work there could re-define the term "run by locals" as Ashton is truly a wide spot in the road. They are old-fashioned, down home friendly. They will tell you what the weather will be like up ahead, where to go if you need something in the area and what the best frozen waterfalls are to visit... (something you didn't even know you wanted to do!) I stop here twice a year at least - on my way to Montana for christmas and on my way back to LA after Christmas. If you are on your way to Yellowstone its worth a quick stop and if you like authentic Americana, don't hesitate to go out of your way. read more

This place has so much going for it: old 1970's interior decor, drive-up with carhops, and a gigantic revolving root beer float. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end at Frostop. On my first visit, I had a burger for $8.59. When our burgers came out, they were absolutely drenched in "fry sauce". I wasn't aware that everything here (and possibly in Idaho) comes with "fry sauce". Fry sauce looks to be mayo and Thousand Island - think McDonald's secret sauce. It was disgusting and I scraped off all the sauce that I could. My boyfriend thought the sauce was OK, although there was too much. It was difficult to taste anything except that pink, vomitus mess. Our carhop did not provide us with napkins, and I smelled like that sauce for 24 hours despite having washed my hands and face multiple times. The fries were great. We also had tater tots, which was fun. I learned my lesson about "fry sauce", and the next time Frostop's quaint drive-up and rotating root beer sign pulled me in - I was ready. We decided to dine inside this time and walked in to their fabulous little diner and sat on the bar stools right in front of the waitress and the soda machine. My boyfriend ordered a burger, and asked for it "without" the sauce. The waitress was completely stunned - this obviously never happens. I ordered the chicken tender basket with barbecue sauce as my condiment of choice for $7.99. The order arrived, and my basket was only three, small, Cisco product tenders. Dairy Queen does a superior chicken tender basket. The barbecue sauce was plain Cisco brand sauce, and that pink puke "fry sauce" appeared in my basket in a little plastic container. There is no ketchup or mustard in visible sight. We could have requested it, but our waitress's attention wasn't easy to get. Our Cokes came in frosted mugs, which was cool, but when we ran dry the waitress really took her time in offering us a refill. When she gave us our bill, my boyfriend laid a $20 down on the counter. It sat there for at least a solid 15 minutes, right in front of the waitresses, completely ignored. We needed change, but the staff was ignoring us and we were so over Frostop at this point that we just left. This place should be great, and I think that is one of the reasons we found both dining experiences to be so frustrating. We will not return. read more

As the others who passed through said, concerning service, but pretty good food. Nearly photo quality presentation of burgers and such. If you're not from this dirthole town however, you should expect to be treated like a serial killer. I would have asked for some ketchup, but the occasional service was not available. Since I was left on my own just about the whole time, I had the opportunity to observe the local wildlife. I noticed that the family who was running this place for the last few years had got really fat compared to their pictures on the wall. That's fine and all, but they all seemed very angry. Angry and taking it out on their coworkers and everyone else who was around. The hogzilla queen here was fairly outlandishly abusive to the hot two-tone hair number that was serving my table. It seemed a pattern. Pure dogpack dominance stuff. Since no one came to my table to give me a bill, I walked up to the register. There was more weirdness there. I had to go outside for water and remembered that I didn't leave a tip when I was miles away. So here's my tip: hotskinnyservergirl, leave that town. The hogzilla hates you because you're pretty and her husband looks at you like he doesn't look at her anymore. Leave before you end up sad, angry, and pathetic like her. Go to LA and party. Get on a bus and go somewhere before these people weigh you down and drown you in hamburgers and milkshakes. read more

Ok so maybe I'm a little more than biased since this was the restaurant that my husband and I stopped at on our way to our honeymoon cabin in Island Park...but...I've got to say this food is delicious. I'm sure it's not very good for you, but hey, splurging every now and then is good for you :). The first time we visited frost-top I ordered a salad and my husband got a burger. He loved his burger and the fries *which I helped him finish* were DELICIOUS. This last time we stopped by we shared a chicken strip basket, fries and of course - a frosttop rootbeer. YUM. The chicken was delicious! Most chicken strips look like they were ground at some time and then molded into chicken strip shape *yuck* but THESE chicken strips were REAL CHICKEN. The fries were still AMAZAZIIING! And the rootbeer was delicious. I will continue to come to this restaurant until I'm too old to hop up on the barstools...but then I'll just sit in the dining area :) read more

The Frostop Drive-in is more than just a classic burger and shake place, it is a veritable oasis on the road to and from Yellowstone National Park, Island Park, or Mesa Falls. Countless visitors, both local and from across the world, have stopped here seeking cool refreshment ... and they found it. This is a great place for a shake or cool drink. The huckleberry shake is a local favorite, as is the rootbeer float. The caramel float was my favorite as a boy whenever we passed through Ashton on a hot afternoon after a trip to the mountains. They serve typical drive-in fare in baskets: a variety of burgers, chicken sandwiches and such. There are some unique options like the grilled salmon sandwich, the Frostop burger (topped with ham) or the pizza burger. They also have fun side dishes like deep fried mushrooms, zucchini, cheese sticks, and jalapeños ("bottle caps.") Of course, they also carry the condiment of choice in Utah and Eastern Idaho: fry sauce. If you haven't had it before, you have to try this intermountain delicacy. read more
