Roe Ann's is a great place to eat. Like the Old Fashion Hamburger Place we ate at as kids. The food is good, the staff is friendly and the service is fast. If you're hungry while you're in Emmett stop by you won't be disappointed. read more

Came here after hanging at the Emmett Farm and the food was good! When we pulled up there weren't any car spots so we opted to ordering at the window and it took maybe 30+ minutes. They were busy! Probably not a place to order from if in a time crunch, even at the drive through. Between drive thru and the cars and the rest of us waiting, I'm sure they had a lot to cook; pretty sure two people left before their name was called. Yet the food still came out super hot and fresh! read more

Mountain Berry Shakes are a huge delight!! And their service is pretty darn good for a drive inn ..! Buts it's the Burgers that keep me coming back...they are the great ol fashioned burgers you got at drive inns back in the day before the big chains moved in...DELICIOUS!!

Roe Ann's has some great food. Yes, it's fast food, but it's good fast food. If you've never tried it before, get a taco cheese dog. One of my favorites. & their burgers have bread & butter pickles on them. Much better than a dill. read more

Loved the vibe, loved the atmosphere. The little thought the drive up was awesome and even cooler you got to order in a phone! All the food was delicious. We will definitely be going back. read more

I can remember watching the old "Happy Day" show and thinking how crazy to have burger shops with outdoor service and all. Then to be able and take a nice drive through to Emmett and actually have a pull up and order place to eat. Yup, with good music playing. The menu is what you would expect, burgers, hot dogs fries and rings. Some other food choices as well but the shakes, good! A double deluxe burger with curly fries and sauce are a go to for me. Onion rings and a shake, good. They do have chicken strips, couple sandwich and Mexican food options. But the burgers and fries are the best. Sit outside at the small eating area and watch the flow of traffic catch you digging in to some good food. My family likes it and the grandkids devoured the food just to grab a frozen yogurt. Yup, a good go to for a quick bite. read more

Wow! This was a great find on our way thru town. The food was so fresh and tasty. I got a cheeseburger and it was amazing. Service was great. I loved the cool old school drive in vibe and the phone in order option. Cool. I can't wait to come back when I'm passing thru town. read more

Stopped in on our drive to McCall and got absolutely fantastic burgers, fries and shakes! It did take over 20 min to get the food which seemed a bit long, but the cashier apologized for the wait and our food was piping hot and delicious! Burger was juicy and not made of fatty or low quality meat- it was truly a tasty burger. What's cute about this place is you can call ahead and order for pick up, order at the window, or pull up and order at a drive up station. Like the old fashioned burger joint!! We couldn't order at a car drive up station because we were pulling a small trailer behind our car and there wasn't a long station to accommodate this (hint: consider adding a couple long stations for people pulling a small trailer). Definitely stop here if you're making a drive through the area! read more

Outstanding prices and sizes! Food was super yummy (I wish the fries were more salty but that's a me thing). Service was fast and friendly. I haven't had a burger that good in a long time! I got a medium fry with it and could barely finish. 100000/10 read more

I drove down from Alaska and the food was amazing. I was so impressed that I am getting ready to drive 2061 miles to eat there again. Service was amazing and the drive in atmosphere was perfect. Highly recommend. read more

We have been going to Roe Ann for many years. Our go to spot heading up and back from hunting. The portions have changed drastically. Burgers are now like the size of Wendy's Jr burgers. Their giant BLT has 3 pieces of bacon on it now and is no longer on their thick Texas toast style bread. And their huge chicken tender basket that had 3-4 large chicken breast tenders is now 2 small tenders that you would get out of a Costco bag. Tots are now Tater Sticks and you get 8-10. Prices are still all the same but the quality and portion sizes are gone. Very sad for such an iconic drive-in in Emmett. Very disappointing. I'd rather pay a little more than see such drastic changes to the quality and quantity. read more

This is just one of those places where I have to say I don't get it. After all the rave reviews and people in Emmett who love this place I left disappointing. Maybe my expectations are too high. I was trying to catch a quick meal between appointments so I went through the drive-through. It was extremely slow but I understand stuff happens. I got to the window and had to wait a bit but the window was open and I could see a kitchen full of flies. EEEUW! I guess I was expecting something that tasted like a home grilled hamburger. What I got was your typical fast food frozen burger, Cold fries and the wrong drink. If there was nothing else available and I really needed some food I might give it a second try. On the other hand, I am hard-pressed to come up with a scenario where that would be the case read more

The best chili cheese tots you will ever eat, period. I make it a point to get them whenever i get out this way.

I've eaten at a good number of road side burger shacks. Nothing better than finding a gem. This place is decent. Not my favorite but not the worst. When trying a new burger joint I always get a bacon cheeseburger. I feel it's a good place to start. Burger itself wasn't bad. Produce was all fresh. It's what I expect. Topped with ketchup, lettuce, pickle, tomato and seasoned with salt & pepper. I order without onion. Their standard burger is maybe an 1/8 pound if I had to guess. It was not 1/4. Seemed more like a well dressed kid burger. That's not a bad thing. Ordered the 50's fries. Not impressed with the fries at all. They were a thicker cut with skin on but under cooked. Soft and under seasoned. They were hot and fresh cooked just not long enough. Didn't eat half of them. Too bad. What they did get right was the Mountain Berry Shake. I'd drive there just for that thick milkshake. Friendly workers who greeted with smiles. Just need to cook the fries longer... read more

My in--laws were excited to send us here. It was okay. Fries fair, burgers fair, fair in general. I had a BLT SANDWICH it was basic

This was a miss for us today. Read all of the reviews, appreciate the concept and history, but food was just ok. Nothing to write home about. I think they have the world's smallest ketchup cup. Medium onion rings were not enough to share, but were good. Glad we stopped, but probably won't be back. read more

It's was good all the way to 2019. It's been getting worse every year. Don't bother asking welldone. They say ok, but they never do it. read more

Great food, good value, great service, better than expected and worth the stop. Onion rings were great.

During this time of shelter in place my husband and I decided to go on a 'Drive Through Date.' We drove to the beautiful city of Emmett to find some local dig to support and fill our stomachs. I'm a sucker for a hole in the wall, greasy burger place and Roe Ann's caught my eye. The thing I liked most about this place is the nostalgia. Who doesn't want to pretend they are from the 50's having a dime hamburger at the local car hop? The menu alone gifted us with a few chuckles. It was very blunt but with comedic affect (see pictures of menu). The staff were super nice and quick with our order but unfortunately that is about all I liked about this place. The food tasted fairly bland and I'm guessing the culprit is a bunch of frozen food items. The burgers do say they are 100% beef and hand formed, but it was lacking serious flavor and heartiness. The shrimp's texture was so very strange, almost mushy. It turned me off so much that I only had one and couldn't eat anymore (as one of the most expensive things on the menu, I expected more). The fries were so-so at best. Very limp and sad. I have an extremely hard time giving local establishments a bad review, hence why I settled on three stars instead of lower. But I just couldn't get over the taste of the food and so sadly I must dock a few points thusly. read more

Very fast, fast food with a smile. Better than any Cal food. I will return several times. Please get tomatoes on the burgers though. read more

Roe Ann's Drive-In - Emmett at sunset - Burgers Near Me - Emmett, Idaho

We have come here a few times even though we don't live in the area. We liked the onion rings, burgers and shakes. Today was a big disappointment. First, we ordered our quarter pound burgers with only the burger, onions and bun. Nothing else on it and two large union rings. Both burgers had everything on it, however it had no onions. We let that go. However, as I was eating I looked at the prices of the items we ordered on their menu as we felt the amount the server told us ($30.01) was too high. Two burgers $6.99 each and two large onion rings $4.75 each. That comes to $23.48. Unless taxes are almost 30% that guy stuck it us. We will not be back. read more

I would say this is the middle of the road as far as stars go. I didn't find it to be too impressive yet too disappointing. The one thing I admire about Idaho is the life of the Drive-In still thriving. The concept makes me smile so when I want a splurge, I often hit up an oldy but a goody Drive-In. Roe Ann's was pretty busy. All the car slots were full, the drive through was packed and the walk up had a few people waiting. I only ordered a burger and a vanilla cone and I waited for 20 minutes. I understand that they are busy but I found it to be silly at a "fast food" establishment. I am pretty patient so I didn't let it ruin my experience but let it be known, it wasn't fast. My burger was a burger. I was craving a juicy, delectable sandwich but my burger didn't set my craving free. Meaning, I was still craving a burger after eating a burger. I did find the vanilla cone to be delicious! I can eat ice cream year around and I was happy with my cold choice. I think this is a great place to hit up and check out. To me it more of the experience you have when eating at a drive-in rather than having it be a place to come for 5 star food. We need places like that so I left with a smile! read more

Burgers are a little on the small side but have great flavor, and such delicious malts !

Food isn't that great, my mother in law brings burgers home every now and then and every time it's just not that good. I haven't interacted with the staff so I cannot speak on that end or the atmosphere. It is always busy so I'm assuming it's personal preference or just better then the McDonald's and sonic we have in town. read more

Wonderful food. Great place, great with friends. Love the atmosphere. Get the 50's fries, yummy, some say they are the best... just ask Larry read more

Give this place a shot. It's a favorite of the locals. My wife and I went there with my buddy and his wife who are Emmett residents. The food was good, the service was friendly, and the 50's decor brought back a lot of memories. Americana at its best! read more

Affordable and adorable. The only place I've been to that hasn't inflated prices. I got a burger for $5! The food is always good and I love the antique feel. If this place ever closes I'll lose faith in humanity. read more

Good food at one of Emmett's longest-standing landmarks. Everyone should experience Roe-Ann at least a couple of times! :)

Total blast from the past. Terrific service and selection. Only thing is diner and area are a little run down, but nothing major. Totally recommend if your looking for a 50's/60's drive in experience. read more

What a gem! We went cherry picking this last summer and asked the locals about a good place to eat and they told us about Roe-Ann's. It is absolutely delicious, four of us went that day and we all loved it. read more

Old School. Diverse Menu and can get pretty busy. These is pre-Sonic drive thru that always seems busy. Burgers aren't too bad but it's the Experience that makes it joyful. read more

I knew this place would be rad....it looks like it hasn't changed since the 50s.....food was good......park and eat...you'll love it

If your headed to Emmett at anytime throughout the year, definitely you want to make this stop. Great local restaurant with an amazing crew and staff. They also have a one of a kind drive thru experience! One of my favorite items they sell is their Root beer Spins. Homemade root beer with great ice cream spun old fashioned and boy, do these hit the spot especially when it's hot outside! I also recommend their burgers with everything on them. read more

First time visiting. Food is great. Realy enjoyed the burgers. Staff is very friendly.

Talk about a blast from the past and a hidden gem in Emmett, Idaho! This diner is legit still stuck in the 1950s with hand held telephones you use to order with when you drive up to park. They also have the walk up or drive through windows. The six dollar big bob burger was three, thick 1/3lb juicy beef patties that were extremely cheesy and cooked perfectly. I included everything on it. I had the garlic fries which had a ton of flavor and mini mozzarella sticks that came with a marinara dip. The raspberry mint milk shake was superbly creamy and packed with a perfect blend of the flavors. The service was good and food hot! This place was well worth the drive and if your looking for an old fashioned burger and milkshake that hasn't been modernized, check this place out! read more
