Always the best and great staff. Always very nice and friendly and the food is great. Hits the spot!

Saturday July 11, 2026 and the Tom's River Roy Rogers still going strong - keeping up standards with great fast food in a modernized, but olde tyme (1970s~80s) vibey dining environment. My yearly stop here never, ever disappoints. The same owner ~30 years and now under his son, has kept a high standard of fresh food, a sure clean environment and friendly, dedicated staff. Walking into this Roy Rogers is not like walking into any other franchise - it's still real Americana - the staff is friendly, country music is playing on the speaker, westerns on the TV monitor and everyone is speaking English; something really nice to experience again as we lose more and more of who we were. And all of this is a great appeal and draw to this place. See Americans - "Old School" can still be done. read more

I'm not afraid to admit that I'm a fan of brands that have fallen into neglect or disfavor and no matter how you look at it, the Roy Rogers chicken and burger chain falls comfortably into that category. Most people who remember the mid-century singing cowboy and his trusty horse Trigger (of B-movie lore) are for the most part pushing daisies but that harsh reality does little to detract from a fine burger served lickety split. Hang in there Roy. An easy five stars. read more

I have been going here for decades!!! Only the faces change but the commitment to great tasting quality food remains the same regardless of the hour I visit this clean establishment. Service is friendly and extremely attentive My only wish would be that they had one in Bergen county NJ So stop in order up and enjoy their one of a kind fixins bar. Happy Trails read more

Great experience at this throwback to our youth! Pete and I wanted to introduce the baby to our childhood favorite and it did not disappoint. We ordered beef sandwiches and root beers. The baby had a chicken leg kid's meal. It was obviously fast food but it was DELICIOUS!!!! I was blown away at how clean the fixin's bar was. The service was very patient and kind with our annoying group. I think the cashier's name was Mary(?) and she was a saint. There were others that were also kind to my family and I am very grateful. The warm service really made the experience so special. Can't wait to go back. read more

Roy Rogers - Very clean d - Burgers Near Me - Pine Beach, New Jersey

Roy Rogers does it again! Friendly staff, always busy keeping the place clean! The fixings bar is fresh & stocked up with, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, pickled jalapeños. The strawberry shortcake sundae is made the same as it was back in the day. I highly recommend this Roy Rogers! They made me and my twin brothers Memorial Day Weekend! read more

All the memories of family trips to Roy's as a kid and its place atop my fast food rankings were validated as we serendipitously passed this oasis down in Toms River. Unfortunately the decor is still a throwback as well. But the freshness and quality were shocking. Beautiful NJ tomatoes and big, clean, cold chunks of iceberg, and 2 types of onions in the clean and orderly fixin's bar were so satisfying. Service was quick and friendly with an older staff that may have worked there since the 70's for all I know. Plus, creamsicle shakes just sent it over the top. As per the cashier, there's also one in Brick: the only 2 left in NJ. Go there and show them some support. Maybe we can get some more back! read more

Roy Rogers - Burgers Near Me - Pine Beach, New Jersey

I stopped there today (which I do when I'm in the area) and their product is several levels about most other "fast food" places. Their onion rings were real . . . unlike the faux ones they now serve at White Castle. And, their people were very nice and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. read more

Roy Rogers in Tom's River is the old school Roy's. Great chicken and love that Double R Bar Burger. The staff were very inviting and friendly. It was just like it used to be with a modern upgrade and the Fixins Bar! Would highly recommend if you were a fan of Roy Rogers. read more

I have been coming here since I was a kid and food here is always so good. The drive through is always busy but the like moves so quickly. They have the best French fries out of any fast food place around. The Roast-beef sandwiches are always amazing and fresh. read more

Food is always terrific, yesterday, instead of getting the famous roast beef, I decided to get a hamburger. To my surprise, the burger was better than any diner I have ever been to. I also got the side salad which I found it is healthier and a better value, that was also delicious. read more

Roy Rogers - Burgers Near Me - Pine Beach, New Jersey

I really feel this Roy Rogers is the best fast food around. The french fries are always perfect. They have the best fresh brewed, unsweetened iced tea and every single time I get a sandwich no matter what it is it's fresh and hot. The Fixin's cup on the side is so perfect bc the lettuce and onions crispy and the tomato is cold it's just bar none good fast food. The staff is always friendly there. read more

The staff is so friendly especially the woman at #2 Window during the day. She is always welcoming and smiling

I thoroughly enjoyed coming to this location every time I visit southern New Jersey. Unfortunately we do not have these in Connecticut anymore and these were a staple of my childhood fast food establishments. In actuality this is my favorite fast food chain. The service is always great at this location, the restaurant is always clean and the food is always hot and fresh. My go to item is the quarter pound hamburger combo. If you're looking for a great lunch or dinner spot while traveling along New Jersey definitely give Roy Rogers a try. read more

Roy Rogers - Front of Roy Rogers restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Pine Beach, New Jersey

Don't offer a fixings cup on your drive thru menu if you're not going to put one in the bag. 2 locations in the state. Wonder why...

Fried chicken was excellent today. Service was fast. Have loved their chicken for over 30 years!

Stopped by the Roy Rodgers Restaurant for the first time. Ordered a steak and cheese. The food was great and the service was fast. The employees were so friendly and helpful. BG read more

I've been a fan of Roy's for many years. The quality of the food and the preparedness of the food is terrific. The many choices and the fixin's bar is truly exceptional. The food is always whats keeps me coming back! read more

First, I had no idea brick and mortar Roy Rogers restaurants were still around. We ended up in an area of South Jersey we had not been to before because we had to pick up an item we purchased online. When we drove past the restaurant, we looked at each other and literally said at the same time, "Is that an actual Roy Rogers?" We had not been to a Roy Rogers in probably thirty years. Well, we had to check it out. We walked inside and I truly felt like I had stepped back in time, in the best way. It was Roy Rogers as I had remembered it from the 80's. Clean, same decor and complete with Fixin's Bar and 80's TV shows on the TV's! There was a steady stream of regulars eating in and one man told us the owner is the same owner since the 70's. The place was busy. The food? It was the same Roy Rogers food you remember. We enjoyed it. It was fresh, exactly what we expected in terms of taste, the staff were very friendly, and even came around to greet the customers, many by name. I was shocked at how busy it was and how most people ate in, which is just so different from how we engage with fast food now. It was a nice experience. Left feeling very uplifted at having spent an hour remembering simpler times...not a self-ordering kiosk in sight. We actually had to go back to the area the following week to pick up another order and we went again...consistent experience. Our daughter is going to be attending college out that way in September. We definitely plan to return for the food, the friendly staff and of course, the nostalgia. read more

Im not a fan of fast food but Roy's makes a good sandwich and I definitely enjoy a good roast beef sandwich. I wouldn't eat anything else from here because it fast food and has no taste but the RR sandwiches are the best . read more

A Roy Rogers found in the wild! It's a real treat getting Roy's not in a rest area on the Turnpike. My father was dying for some roast beef and chicken, so we made the short trek up here and had a really good fast food lunch. I remember back in the 90's Roy's and Arby's both having sacks of roast beefs sandwiches for really cheap prices. It was like 5 for $5 or something. Well those days are long gone. Each sandwich was about $5 and there wasn't any selection. It was a roast beef sandwich and you had the fixins bar to go to. We ended up grabbing a couple of sandwiches and some chicken with biscuits, mashed potatoes, gravy and mac & cheese. Everything was ready quickly and we packed up our car and headed home. The roast beef was just as good as I remembered. With the sauce and horseradish It gave that thing a nice kick. The chicken was good, a little too greasy for my taste, but really much better than say KFC. The potatoes were good, but obviously a mix. The mac & cheese was very good. It was a delicious lunch and a wonderful throwback to the 1980's for me. We used to have a Roy's fairly close when I was a kid and this brought back the memories. read more

Great food ! Friendly people ! Reminds me as a kid eating here ! We went to the one on the pa turnpike! Roast beef and chicken were fantastic! read more

If I could leave less than one star I would. The food was subpar quality in terms of taste. I used to adore Roy Rogers, but this was not the quality I remember. More to the point and certainly more disconcerting, was that after eating at this location, I came down with an awful, awful case of food poisoning. The kind that leaves you curled up in a ball, sick as can be. I won't be returning here ever again, and I suggest you avoid this location as well. read more

Not a happy camper .. Just went to the drive through with family and ordered 51.00 of food, get home and they forgot 1/2 out order !! By the time we got home they were closed . I ALWAYS check however this time I just took bags and left. I am calling in the morning and they best refund what they forgot or give me what they forgot. I am hoping they do not give me a problem For their mistake or I will be livid. Ok follow up to my prior interview ^ I now give Roy's an A+. I called today and spoke to a really nice gentleman , no questions asked he gracefully, kindly and SO apologetically replaced what had been forgotten ! Oh and by the way the food has always been outstanding . This review had nothing to do with that. This Roy's reminds me of the one I used to go to as a child. read more

Great place for quick bite around the area. Clean and everyone was pleasant to deal with. Food is good. Chicken is bueno and shakes are tasty. read more

The best chicken in town! The gold Rush chicken with extra sauce!! Is the business!! Always great service with a smile

This place is just nostalgic to me. I have been going to Roys since i was a little girl living in Maryland, then Virginia, now New Jersey. When I see a Roys I have to go. I used to love getting french fried and a moosetracks milkshake. Their fries are just so darn good. I like their gold rush chicken sandwhich and their cheesesteak whenever it's available is shockingly good! But most importantly, their fried chicken is .... there are no words, it's just really good. OH, if you haven't been for breakfast, do yourself the favor!! Their potatoes are amaaaaaazing. read more

Used to be a favorite, but just not worth the money anymore.. $10+ for 1 person dinner

Hard to find Roy Rogers these days, so it's a treat when we stop in. Confronted an employee once... She was speaking LOUD telling off a customer. It was wildly inappropriate and made my 4 year old nervous actually. Never went back IN to eat, only drive thru. Wish I took her pic cause I'd post it here, that's how vile she was to this older man. read more

Roy Rogers restaurants are few and far between. As a matter of fact, there are none where I live. Every time I visit the NJ shore I make a lunch stop here. The place is clean and the staff I've encountered have been friendly. The Double R Bar burgers have been good and fresh. The buns are a step above most fast food restaurants. There are some interesting side dish choices. Mac and cheese, side salads, mashed potatoes, and fresh fruit are offered in addition to the standard fries. I didn't try any deserts though. Overall a great fast food restaurant. read more

Notable for being the last standalone Roy Rogers in the State of New Jersey, I feel fortunate to live nearby. Unlike the disgusting offerings awaiting desperate travellers under heat lamps at highway rest stops around the region, this Roy's does it like you remember from your childhood: hot and fresh, every time. read more

Love Roy Rogers . I wish there were more of them. I highly recommend the gold rush chicken sandwich

Stopped by for lunch today. I ordered the Roast Beef combo with mashed potatoes. The place was busy but the staff was fast, took my order right away and the food came right out. The roast beef was great as it melted in my mouth. Last week the roast beef was a little dry and tough, the first and only time that ever happened. This is my favorite fast food stop. read more

Living in Brick, I have heard rumors that Roy Rogers will be opening another restaurant in our area in the next year. Until then I will head to Pine Beach and eat the most delicious roast beef sandwiches in all of fast food land. Their burgers are really tasty and I would say the quality exceeds most offerings by the chain places. Finally their fried chicken blows KFC out of the water. The biggest problem I have with Roy Rogers is making a decision which way I will go! The roast beef sandwich usually wins. I also had breakfast once and found that too was enjoyable. One thing I must add. I have eaten in and taken out. They wrap the sandwiches in that part aluminum foil and part paper wrap. I think the food continues to cook a little so by the time I get home the meat can be dried out or well done. That is why I try to eat there if I can. The place is old school. It could be 1979-1985 in there but the place is clean as a whistle and all of my experiences with the employees have been positive. The food is pricey for fast food but well worth the extra $1 or so and the inevitable trek down Rte 9 and the traffic. Until there is one in Brick, this place is just fine! read more

Chicken wing overcooked, thigh was great. Burger and fixin' station nicely stocked and good eats. Well staffed.

The staff is completely inept. You have to check your order every time you going through the drive through for missing items and even to check to see if the lids have been placed correctly on the cup. Roy Rogers is not the cheapest of fast food restaurants so I would expect the service to be a notch above. read more

Everything here is delicious, I would eat here everyday of it was possible service is okay, don't forget to get your fixings cup!

Here it is my favorite fast food joint on the east coast. Gold Rush Chicken sandwich, Double Roy burger, some fries, wow im hungry now. i'm in area might drive through right now get me some Gold Rush baby yea!!! read more

All restaurants can take notes from the way this Fast Food place is run. "They run a tight ship" my grandpa would say. The place is always clean. The employees are sharply uniformed and stay busy. There is always an adult manager present and clearly in charge. The food is the same Roy Rogers menu but so much better than the overpriced Turnpike trash where you usually find a Roy's. The food is hot and fresh and very tasty. For those that don't know, the menu is burgers and fries but with fried chicken, roast beef sandwiches, and a free fixins bar with lettuce, onions, pickles and condiments. If you have not had Roy's in a while this place will take you back. The sides are mac and cheese, baked beans, slaw etc. My only complaint is that there are no fresh veggies any where on the menu. If there were anything on the menu to help it remotely resemble a healthy meal like corn on the cob, string beans, carrots etc., I would probably eat here more often. The dining room is exceptionally clean and bright with big family size booths. We have had dinners here with in-laws including 6 adults and 2 kids (My FIL is a fried chicken connoisseur). This place is a stand out when your wallet or your cravings bring you down to this level of indulgence. My wife gave herself a night off and brought this home tonight which sparked this review. It was excellent again. Next time we will do salad and steam some veggies and not feel guilty one bit. read more
