Heeter's Drive-In - Diners Near Me - Danville, Pennsylvania

I'm surprised this shows in yelp with a rating of 4 since it is absolutely not a 4. Food - frozen patties that are below grade. Hot dog bun that was 2 pieces like you find with cheap buns. Ketchup is some 3rd rate knock off brand. Service - the 2 that are working are busy but the waiter has a hard time keeping up. Soda could use a refill, maybe a straw with my drink, silverware came later. This isn't a 5 star place so service was as you should expect. 3 star Value/Price - 2 stars. $3.99 for a fountain drink. $1.25 to add cheese to the 3 oz burger? I think for the price you could get better quality food at a chain like chilis, fridays, or other. When i saw this place I thought it might be something like the red rabbit i duncannon PA but it isn't even close. I am sure it is a good breakfast place for standard egg fare I doubt I would go back read more

Drove up after dark and their neon Heeter's sign made it easy to find. The right side of the building has an order window for take-out and a picnic table. An entrance to the diner area is on the left side of the building. The diner runs front to back. There is a small counter seating area by the door with most of the room being booths. Four seater booths on the left and two seaters on the right and at the back. A TV in the back corner was showing fox news on a very loud volume. The waitress was very friendly. They offer canned beers and fruity malt beverages that are made into slushies along with sodas. The menu offers a variety of options and being on the road for several days we came for their dinner salad offerings. The salads are quite large and the greens fresh. Plenty of protein on there. The chicken ceaser came lightly dressed with warm chunks of chicken breast over the top. The warm chicken did wilt the greens a bit. Perhaps placing the warm chicken around the edges of the salad instead of on top would prevent that? Chunk light tuna is used in their tuna salad and I opted for no additional dressing on my salad greens as the tuna salad is enough dressing for my taste. Their tuna salad has a mild taste; nothing surprising in there (that's a good thing). Inside was quite warm on a cold December evening. Service and food were good. There is a private parking lot. Located on a busy road it may take a moment to exit or enter. read more

Location is small and historic. Parking is okay. Seating is decent but small. Staff is two older men, not real talkative and right to the point. In a good way. Prices are okay to higher. Burger and fries are frozen patties and okay. Soft serve ice cream is good but over priced. And if they ask if you want nuts. The answer is NO! They are not free and will charge you $1 for a light sprinkle. Outside of the pricing no complaints! And worth checking out if only for the historic look and feel. Not something I'd go out of my way to eat at, but also not somewhere I'd avoid. read more

Always good to go to Heeter's. The food is great, the service good too. They have very good ice cream too!!

Great service very nice size portions I would encourage anyone in the Area to find this hidden gem down along the river

fresh food, well cooked , delicious Friendly staff - fast service , cute place good fries read more

When we were paving SR-54 we would often use the wide spot across the street to stage vehicles and equipment, of course we wanted to patronize the local businesses So I made sure to give this place a shot. They have great ice cream for them hot summer nights, pricing is decent for the portion size you get which is fairly large, and they do not skimp on the toppings. Haven't tried the food yet but they have great service and they are quick. read more

Great stop along the river south of Danville. Classic old style drive in diner. Been here twice so far. Good burgers and sandwiches, shakes and fries. Clean and good service. Walk up or inside seating. read more

Extremely delicious food at this old style diner. Even though a touch under staffed, a group of six was still accommodated extremely fast and well. Big props for still making our large group feel welcome and taken care of while juggling so many other tables - the staff were fantastic here. The food was particularly delicious diner style food and I always love a place where you can add chili and cheese to just about anything. I went with the fried fish sandwich and some chili cheese fries and boy oh was were they delicious. Portion size was huge and the fry on the fish was just perfect. All the food was truly fantastic here and our server was so nice that we even gave her a card to our band and she came and saw us with her husband last time we in the area. Great spot! read more

Get your ice cream here folks. I once had a hell of a crush on a schoolmate of mine that worked here. Gorgeous gal who gave me gorgeous scoops of ice cream. read more

This place is known for its ice cream and old school vibe. But I wanted to check it out for the food. I got the $6 burger special. The burger wasn't anything special. It was a small one with fries and pickle. A larger portion would have definitely earned my appreciation for the place. The waitress was super friendly and accommodating! read more

Will definitely be back when we're back in the area. Excellent food, extremely nice staff.

I love diners so had to try this place! Services was excellent! I had the 1/4 lb chilli, onion, cheddar Jack hot dog. The bun made the hot dog! My hubby had the hot ham and cheese special, which was yummy, too! To top it off we had a chocolate milk shake that they blended in cherries for us. Both meals came with an abundance of fries, which we couldn't eat. Food came out super fast, too. Would go back again! read more

I've been here a few times for ice cream only. The quality and service is fine enough and our orders have been made as ordered. The problem is the prices for what we get here. There are multiple places within 10 minutes that charge 30-50% less for the same or more of the same items. If you prefer their food here that's fine, just know you can shop around. read more

If you are visiting Knoebels Amusement Park and are looking for a breakfast or lunch spot on the way, this is a nice spot. Doesn't look like much from the outside but inside is roomy, clean and comfortable with 50's ambiance. Food is home made and MUCH better than the nearby Perkins. A lot of choices for breakfast and lunch. Family run and friendly. Very reasonable prices. read more

Extremely unprofessional. We booked Heeters mobile ice cream truck for our biggest corporate event of the year. They were our desert vendor. He showed up on night 1 of 2. Left 1 hour before the event was over, without telling anyone. He never showed up for night 2, no call, no contact. Left us hanging with no option to find a replacement. Sad business, sadder owner. read more

Great food. Great service & huge portions. Had the hassock sandwich this time. But last time the tuna melt was huge & delicious. read more

Prices are way too high for mediocre food that you can get at another place nearby for half the price. Thumbs down. Go somewhere else, the food is better for less cost. read more

Way over priced and I guess they're too worried about forcing Donald Trump down your throat to make the food well. Very inconsistent from visit to visit, in terms of both quality and portion sizes. The price stays high though. There's WAY better food in Danville, no reason what so ever to put up with this nonsense. read more

Heeter's Drive-In - The Outside Of Heeter's Drive-In Restaurant In Riverside, Pennsylvania - Diners Near Me - Danville, Pennsylvania

Step inside a time portal because you are about to go back to the 50's. Heeters awesome design makes me feel like this is what eating at a restaurant in the 50's was like. With the tables, floor, chairs and music. The experience is very nice and I know the older generation has to love it. The food is pretty good, nothing that is going to make you say wow but a nice little place great for breakfast and lunch. My go to there is the chicken quesadillas with the works. You get a large amount and they are stuffed pretty well with chicken, peppers, onions and cheese. Also a big hit in the summer is their ice cream which I think is a little pricey for ice cream but if it's good people don't really care. Just about everyday there is a line for the ice cream in the summer. I am more of a milkshake guy myself getting either coffee ice cream or tea berry which are both very good. Overall good little place with decent food and good ice cream with a nice old fashion vibe. read more

The perfect 50's diner. The decor is perfect from the pictures on the wall to the old fashioned booths. However, if you're like me, ambiance is irrelevant. I want a good meal. That's the reason I go to Heeter's. The food is excellent, authentic diner food. Everyone from the waiters to the cooks is friendly and good at what they do. Wonderful restaurant!! read more

We order from here out of convenience of location. While we usually order the same items and sometimes it's a surprise what we are served. For example, we like the Buffalo chicken salad. Sometimes it has a lot of corn chips, some corn chips and sometimes no corn chips. The spiciness varies as well as the amount of cheese or tomatoes. Other times we have ordered burgers with a side fries and always feel the portions are good for the price. Also have Hershey's ice cream, beer to go and adult slushies. read more

My Wife and I aren't from the Danville area. We had an appointment at Geisinger and wanted something to eat afterwards. We found Heeters on Yelp and it had great reviews, so we tried them out. The food was great and the atmosphere was fun. We ordered the Wisconsin Cheese Curds, and they were uniquely fantastic. My Wife ordered the Fried Mac n Cheese Burger and it was a fried dream. Absolutely delicious. I was in a breakfast mood and ordered the Bacon Egg and Cheeseburger. The quality was out of this world. I also liked that it was served on a bagel rather than a bun. It added that "breakfast" feel I was craving. The fries were perfectly crispy. The 50s theme was fun. I was also impressed by their hot sauce collection. If you're a hot sauce fan, definitely try this place. Overall, we were so happy with our experience that we'll be making this our regular stop every time we have appointments at Geisinger. I highly recommend them for a delicious meal. read more

Heeter's is an excellent place to eat, the food is fabulous and is a very clean place to eat. The servers are so nice and, they are right on the ball, you do not have to sit and wait for someone to walk over to you and, wait on you. Very friendly and, they treat their customers so nice. You get so much food, I can never eat it all. I usually get the shrimp platter and, it is fabulous! They have the best banana splits in the area so, big and really worth the price. Their prices are very reasonable and, you sure get your money's worth, I promise you, you will never walk out of their hungry. They also have take out. read more

Great food, great prices and the owners are so friendly. The pancakes and creamed chipped beef were delicious.

We've been having to make multiple trips to dansville for doctors appointments for my husband and finding Heeters was a win! The employees are great, and the blueberry pancakes amazing read more

Delicious! Not the healthiest place as everything is grilled with butter sauce but boy is it tasty. The ice cream is also very good. The only downfall is some servers are nicer than others and the prices are a little steep. Overall a cute place to go with friends for a quick bite or a sweet treat. read more

We come every year to see family and this place is always number one on our places to eat. Huge portions, so share if you are able...I am not able to share so I feel I need to eat it all! Small little place but don't let that fool you. Staff is super friendly. Worth a stop! read more

A 50's- 60's themed drive-in type of restaurant. Stopped on our way home for some ice cream. How can you screw up ice cream? Well, they did! Asked for a 50's Twister (their version of a DQ Blizzard). $4.50 for a regular (small), but according to the little tags next to the cups, to indicate what size for which ice cream, we didn't get that cup, actually a smaller one. Got the Twister...won't ever get one of those again! My impression, it was made with freezer burnt, heavily crystallized ice cream that they tried to soften with milk, which DIDN'T work. It ended up thinner than a shake! I didn't need the spoon it came with, drank the thing instead. The people before us - they got hard ice cream cones. Looking at them, I have NO idea how she was able to scoop it the way she did. Not in a "ball" form, more like flaps piled on top of each other, and not in a nice appearance. To the point it was immediately falling apart with the girl offering a cup to dump it in so they wouldn't lose it to the ground. On a positive note, I did see a couple with some soft serve that looked good. Better stick to that if you're gonna visit. read more

I LOVE Heeter's! The absolute best thing on the menu is the cheesesteak in the garden! The whole version of the sub is literally 20" long, and the combo of steak, lettuce, tomato, and mayo are to die for! Great atmosphere, usually friendly service, drive up ice cream window, locally owned, what's not to love? This is THE restaurant to eat at while your in Danville. It gets bonus points because it's off the beaten path a little bit, but it's worth it! read more

I love Heeter's, and that's why writing this pains me. The portions are HUGE, and the food is delicious IF, (and this is a big if) Scotty is on the grill, and Justine is your waitress. Fortunately, that's usually the case, but if not, it's a roll of the dice. The Buffalo chicken cheesesteak is a definite safe bet, as is the Buffalo chicken roll-up. The fries have a great coating, and are worth the additional cost. read more

If you love the food and feel of a small diner, it gets no better than Heeter's. If Scott is cooking and Justina is your waitress, prepare to be impressed. Justina is incredibly fast and very good at her job. You'll know Justine is working if she's the only server there (when she's not, she needs to be replaced by two people which I find rather comical). Before I'm even done with my drink she already has a new one on the table! They have your typical diner food ranging from fried foods to grilled foods, sandwiches, entrees, etc. When I'm there I usually go for whatever the special is and I'm never disappointed. Their half a sub is equivalent to Subway's whole sub. For the price, the portions are huge and if you leave there feeling hungry that's your own fault! For the most part I've only had their sandwiches but if I were to recommend anything, my favorites include their cheesesteaks, fish sandwich, and pulled pork BBQ. If you actually happen to have any room left over, they have some really great hard and soft ice cream with plenty of other treats as well. If you're a local or just passing through, stop in to Heeter's and let them fill you up! read more
