    Two orders of fries that are completely inedible.  Hard as a rock, soaked in grease...

    Don't Don't Don't I plead with you. This is not the Hal's you've grown so fond of. I have another review from a couple months ago about how the burgers have gone down hill. I got a response to my complaint and soon after the burgers were improved. I'll give them credit for this. However the service is far worse than it used to be, and EVERYTHING else accompanying your burger is trash. Thin runny milkshake, overcooked disaster fries that are too hard to bite and leave your hands COATED in oil. Quality control is non existent. Any restaurant or diner anywhere would have tossed these straight in the trash rather than serve them to a customer. Clearly either the ownership or staff have very low standards and the want you to know it. I've lived in this town for 20 years and frequented Hal's for every single one of them and my last two visits under this knew ownership have been tragically underwhelming. When two burgers, fries, and drinks cost $33 in today's world you'd really hope the food served will be edible and made with care...but hopes alone won't keep a boat afloat, and Hal's... you're taking on water.

    Opened in 1949-1950 Owner passed. New owner in 1964. The owner held onto the "fifties" car hop drive in with great burgers, fries, Ice cream & yummy shakes. The only drawback is the limited seating and parking spaces. I moved to Sedro Woolley June 1970. Many of my new acquaintances worked there. It was great. Every month I treat myself to a ranch cheeseburger basket, lots of tarter sauce with my fries and a banana shake. I absolutely love this 50's style place. I have never had a banana shake Like theirs. So delicious. I also love their corndogs, grilled cheese sandwiches, Mushrooms. The items on the menu are great as well. 53 yrs for me enjoying great food. Thank You Guys!!

    2 deluxe burgers with fries, a coconut milkshake and a nutella milkshake was a delicious and great way to end our day at the river! The lobby is closed right now but there is a walk up window and 3 picnic tables out front to sit at. The outdoor tables are in the sun and dog friendly!

    Raw, cold, wet fries.  We should have checked before we left with our to go order. Two orders of fries inedible.

    Usually good food at moderate pricing. Don't show up too late or they'll be out of bacon (regular occurrence late in the day). Both is cream machines were down today so none of their very good milkshakes. Got the order to go and the when we got home we found the fries to be not just undercooked, but still cold and semi hard--aka raw. Disappointing considering two small fries is about $8

    Cute 50s dinner theme.

    Amazing burgers, fries, and old fashioned shakes. Soda is always super fizzy I love it. Highly recommend.

    Came in alone after a visit to Northern State nearby. First impression: noisy, crowded, and…read moreservice was a little slow. I've seen other people complaining about rude staff but they seemed cheerful enough to me, or maybe I'm just a handsome bastard. I waited awhile for my food (thank God for smartphones) but when it came I was impressed with the presentation (this is upscale for bar food) and the Iron Mountain Burger was a most excellent kick-ass burger, and just what I was looking for. Had the house salad with it because I'm trying to eat healthy... thousand island because I'm not trying very hard. What more can I say about this? Food was excellent, and I detected none of the attitude other people have talked about. If you want a burger and a bit of rustic atmosphere, check this place out.

    We used to love this place. It was our favorite place to go and have dinner and drink drinks. Since…read morethe new owner has taken over, the food has just gone downhill. This will be my final time trying it. My daughter really wanted the garlic fries and those were actually the only thing that was good. Her chicken was very stringy. My sandwich was burnt on half. Of course that's the half they put down on the plate. And I had a BLTA and it literally had barely any avocado on it. I ended up eating it open faced with one piece of bread. Very sad for what use to be a fun hometown place. I can't say the service was good.

The entrance is delightfully well-done, and our faces lit up when we walked into the bar - intricately detailed and authentic enough that a '20s dress code could be reasonably enforced. We were seated immediately, and the cadence of service was immaculate: our appetizer came out just after our drinks, and the entrees appeared as we were taking the last bites of the appetizer. But I wasn't thrilled with my selections. The Rum Punch was served at room temperature and the jalapeño popper chicken sandwich was drier than the description suggested. My partner got the Jalisco Fizz, which she says paired well with the mushroom pasta, and really enjoyed the salmon deviled eggs. At $11-14, the drinks are priced well, but the food is overpriced. The jalapeño chicken sandwich was not a $23 sandwich, and a tempting lobster/shrimp roll was listed at $35. Overall Speakeasy Saloon is worth making an evening of. Dress up and sip on whiskey drinks in the low light with loved ones.
