If I lived closer I would be a daily customer The burgers and fries are top shelf This review is from a person that can cook food Very impressed read more

We were starved after a long drive up from Fort Bragg in NC. This place was close to the Home2Suites where we were to spend the night. Close and convenient on our way in. We did the drive thru, as we were whipped from driving. We ordered a cheeseburger added bacon, a double cheeseburger added bacon, two orders of fries, a double large drink (32 oz.), and order of chili added cheese and fritos, and a medium frosted malt. All our food was very good. The chili is best with the cheese and fritos, as it is a thinner based chili, not thick. The drive through line was long, but we can see why based on the food quality. They do NOT have military discounts for retired military veterans, probably the only negative comment we can provide. They require a signature on your credit card receipt, so they are a little behind the times on that aspect. We ate in our hotel rooms, so can't comment on the dinning room...our hotel room was nice. It was worth the high marks that caused us to give it a try...it is an awesome local burger joint. We highly recommend it. read more

As someone who had not eaten here before it would have nice to how it works. The girl took our order and then walked away. We didn't know if we paid now or sit down. So we waited no workers spoke to us. Eventually another girl brought our food and then rang us up. We had plenty of places to sit. We picked a table that look the least dirty. The burger was good but super thin. The fry's were bland. The chili tasted tolerable but only ate a few bites due to taste. They had Pepsi products. Would return if only option available read more

The food is the precursor to Wendy's. I highly recommend the chocolate malt (frosty). I also recommend the lemon crunch pie! Soooo good. The interior is kind of barren, dated, and cafeteria style. The service is some what unorganized for being in business so long. The burgers and fries are fine, read more

Kewpee Hamburgers - Interior with history - Burgers Near Me - Lima, Ohio

My grandparents lived in Lima for many decades, and when I was a kid growing up in Sidney, they would take me to Kewpee when I would visit. My grandmother loved the Kewpee. I would get a cheeseburger and fries, maybe a shake. A few years ago my grandmother passed away, and her children and grandchildren flew in from across the country for her memorial service. Her last wish (written in her will!) was for us to have lunch after the memorial at this Kewpee, which she paid for. Thanks grandma! I don't know if I'll be back to Lima to eat another meal at Kewpee, but I'll always remember eating there as a kid, and my last meal with my family, remembering her. read more

So what I did was drive to a different Kewpee Hamburgers to A) compare the two, and B). Give Mrs. E. a chance to experience the legend. You have three new fans, Mrs.E and her dogs. The Kewpee hasn't changed much in my 50+ years of eating them. Now, the rest of the fam finally understands. This location is right off I-75. The dining room is huge. The staff are always friendly to us. The cheeseburgers are stellar. I've been stalling for so long on this review, we've managed to visit here five times! All great experiences! 07/24 read more

I've heard highly about this places for years now. I've just never been in the area to try it out until my son had a leg brace appointment just up the street. The line for the drive thru looks intimidating but it moves really fast. The hamburgers are delicious and so juicy. We were stuffed and happy. It is worth the drive to eat here and I will be making the trip back with family soon. This is what a burger should taste like! read more

Kewpee is one of my regular stops when heading south on I-75 (Exit 125). A simple menu keeps the line moving fast ... and I love the Sugar Cream pie. read more

Went through the drive-thru, which had a long line, but that is to be expected since it is a staple of the area. Got a standard cheeseburger with fries and a drink and the whole thing was reasonably priced at $6. I'd rather come here than McDs or another fast food joint. Support local! The cheeseburger was good and the fries crispy. Service was with a smile! read more

Really like the burgers there. The service was pretty fast for the amount of patrons that were at the restaurant. Loved the family feeling all the people displayed. Such a nice feeling being at the place. The pecan pie was great too. read more

Best Hamburger you'll ever have. Hometown favorite! If your in Lima Ohio get yourself a Kewpee Hamburger.

Found a local gem in Lima! Food was tasty and affordable. Associates were friendly and dressed in throwback uniforms that reminded me of the 50's. Love the retro feel of the restaurant. Don't be alarmed by the line at the drive thru! It's worth the wait. Ordered the double cheeseburger, fries, and pumpkin pie. Note that the onions are raw. Pie tasted like grandma made it! Don't be alarmed by the fries in the pic. . .I munched on them on the way back to the hotel. Portion size is great. Hope I have room for a frosted malt next time. read more

Awesome local burger joint. Big space too for a large party. Old school and knows hot to do a local fast food burger.

Stopped in to try this place I've heard so much about. Ambiance is typical fast food burger joint. We waited in line for about 30 minutes. The food is freshly made & tasty. Hubby & I both ordered cheeseburgers, we split an order of fries & he ordered a slice of apple crisp pie for dessert while I got the chocolate malt (similar to a frosty). Our burgers were delicious though they go a bit overboard with the mustard. The fries were good (similar to McDonald's). Hubby liked the pie & I liked the malt. My only complaint is the 30 minute wait in line. The drive-thru had a very long wait also. read more

This was listed on the Ohio burger trail! It's a 50's-style restaurant with decent burgers and fries. The young lady that took our order did not seem happy and seemed threatening. The restaurant was dirty. I hate to give it such low reviews, but we weren't impressed. read more

This place is awesome! The staff is super friendly and helpful and the food is fantastic! They were accommodating with my group as I took my soccer team here. Their milkshakes and burgers are the best! The inside is like 1950s diner complete with the Kewpee baby statue. read more

The Hamburger was dry. The meat was overdone. Not juicy at all. The fries were good. The frosty was awesome. If you come here, expect a wait. read more

What a classic icon diner! Love the food and classic feel! 10 gold stars! Please expand! I finally made my way to Lima on a Sunday only to find my childhood memory was closed! Absolutely LOVE this place! The fries in the chili were always a favorite. read more

Food was cold and tasteless. Service was very slow. Crew looked totally unmotivated and not focused on the customer.

I will drive 220 miles roundtrip just for a Kewpee burger or two and one of Kewpee's frosted malts. I need to get up there before the weather changes. read more

Heard about this place for years so I was excited to finally be able to try it. The burger was fantastic so flavorful. The pie was delicious as well, so many great options. I didn't order fries or a malt but others from our group did and were impressed! read more

Service was not friendly. We came in and ordered and my daughter is a picky eater and allergic to a lot of things so we usually have questions that need to be answered. The upfront employees response was unfriendly and minimal. We ended up getting her a grilled cheese sandwich, but when we received the sandwich it was just a bun with cheese on it. The sandwich was never put on the flat top to melt the cheese. read more

Finally made it to Lima to this hamburger establishment from 1928! There's 3 locations in Lima Ohio. Huge inside eating area! I ordered the'Special! burger' which had miracle whip, lettuce and tomatoes and I added pickles. For $2.50 it was a decent flavorful burger! I got a extra large ice tea for $1.10! Such a deal! Looking forward to going back and trying their breakfast items! They open at 5:30am! read more

Fast service and great burgers. Love the baby doll. It adds a certain ambiance to the restaurant.

A simple drive in style restaurant that is wonderful in price and quality. You order as soon as you walk in, there is a person with a notepad and that is where you place your order so if you are not a regular customer then I recommend you view their menu online. The burgers are fantastic and at only 3 bucks for a cheeseburger with all the toppings at the time of this review, it is an incredible deal. Once you order you wait in line and pay at the register as you pick up your food. I would eat here several times a week if I lived here because of the price, service and quality. read more

It was delicious and very clean the malts are very creamy and delicious the hamburgers were amazing and all the staff was very nice and friendly read more

Low prices and decent food. Typical fast food joint in terms of ambiance. Would stop again.

This place was hopping. There was a line of people around the building for the drive-thru and a line of people inside. Luckily the line moved fairly quickly. The team working behind the counter was efficient at getting orders out. You can tell this is a local spot as there were many repeat customers that the staff automatically knew the orders for. I got mine to go as time was limited by the time I made it through the line. The food was ok. Personally I thought it tasted like In-N-Out or McDonalds both of which are meh burger joints to me. The fries were decent but needed some salt added which I didn't have on me. The food was hot and I was hungry so it worked in a pinch. read more

The food tasted amazing, the service was kind and helpful and the tables were all clean. Everything was top notch and I would recommend all to go to. read more

Had heard about Kewpee's so decided to give them a try. Me and my wife had the double cheeseburger and fries. She had the chocolate malt and I had the lemonade slushy, both were good. The wait wasn't more than 15 minutes. The sizes of the drinks are smaller than at other fast food restaurants, but that is a plus if you are trying to eat healthier. We dined in and everything was clean. Will definitely come back due to the proximity to I-75 as I live out of town, but do pass through Lima several times a year'. read more

Yum! Directed here by a local who said we HAD to try it- I'm glad we did! First off, the frosted malt... loved it. Less 'malty' than I'd prefer, honestly not even sure they should consider it a malt but so creamy, chocolatey and delicious. Highly recommend. Great basic burger with fresh toppings. Im not a huge burger fan, certainly no aficionado. For a fast food drive through joint, I thought it was on par with expectations. Fries, eh. If you have to have fries with your burger, ask for an extra salt packet. Otherwise, maybe skip the fries. read more

The hamburgers are amazing and the chili is really good. You really will pleased with all the food on their menu. A piece of one of their pies will make you want to buy a whole one. If you are in the Lima area, I'd highly suggest you give the Kewpee a try. Customer service is excellent. read more

So this is a place you MUST stop. It borders on one of the better hamburgers I have had. Fresh made burgers, ample toppings, and well seasoned. If you go there don't waste your time on asking for water - there are small plastic cups available at the fountain, but if you ask for one of their cups with ice you will pay $0.50 per cup. Here is what they are known for: 1. An excellent hamburger/cheeseburger. I got a double and could have eaten a triple, or a few doubles, as they were great. 2. Their chili. I got Chili as my side and it was good - not a spicy chili (it is a savory chili) with lots of meat and a great base. 3. Their pies. You will see many pies available and they look amazing. Throughout the place you see these "creepy" Kewpie dolls around. It is rather "Spartan" inside with nothing spent for decorations other than these "creepy" Kewpie dolls. Would I come again? Absolutely, I might not get the chili and just get several of the double cheese burgers as it was super good. read more

We go here frequently. A great burger and friendly staff. Tasty food and other of choices.

Food was pretty good, nothing crazy. Came here for the history next time I'll try the frozen yogurt or pie.

I always stop when I'm traveling on I 75. It's like Wendy's when Wendy's first opened. Excellent and very fresh.

Excellent hamburgers and reasonable price! Runs about $5. A couple miles west of 75 in Lima. read more
