The best old school drive-in in the tristate area. Got a dog, English dog, cheeseburger and chicken basket with vanilla and peanut butter milkshakes. The English dog is the best hot dog I've had. The kiddo enjoyed the heck out of the chicken strip basket. Better than DQ! Staff were amazing and it just has all the right vibes. Highly recommended!! read more

Reasonably priced. Always fresh and hot. Friendly staff. Have had burgers, fries, onion rings and corndog so far. The only negative is on the onion rings, the portion was very small, unlike the fries which were plentiful. I plan to try the chili cheese fries next. I just moved to Milton a few months ago and can understand why they are always busy! read more

As soon as we parked, the car hop appeared to take our order. Both of us had the English Dog which was like a hot dog should taste. Sauce and slaw and the bun toasted. The onion rings were very good and not greasy. A cold diet root beer hit the spot on a hot day. We enjoyed our lunch at the picnic tables under the shade trees. Highly recommend!!! read more

Old style drive in type fast food. Several cars there when we arrived but the service was quick, friendly and efficient. I had 2 dogs with slaw & sauce and fries. The wife had a cheeseburger and onion rings. We both enjoyed our meals. The dogs were good and the fries were excellent. The cheeseburger was also very good and the onion rings excellent.

In town for a short while so I thought we'd try this little drive-in. I read the reviews on yelp and saw that the onion rings were supposed to be good but unfortunately my onion rings were burnt. They were not very good. The french fries were also a little on the done side so not so great either. I had a cheeseburger which was OK and my husband ordered the steak burger. We didn't realize that what made the steak burger a steak burger was just adding on some sauce because that's the only difference we could tell. So overall not too thrilled with this dining experience. read more

Our family has visited Shaffer's several times, always having a wonderful experience. The food prep is a little slow, but it forces our family to slow down and enjoy each other. Whether we've ordered hot dogs, chicken tenders, cheeseburgers, or milkshakes, we have been totally satisfied. The young man who works there is very organized and attentive to all customers. He never slows down and is able to accommodate 7-8 cars at a time. Shaeffers has just introduced their peach and banana milkshakes. read more

I stopped in for some lunch while having my car serviced at a nearby car dealership, I didn't know…read moreanything about this restaurant but their parking lot was full. I figured if there were that many cars on their lot the food had to be good. The service was great, our waitress was friendly and very attentive. We got our food quickly and It was made just as we had asked for. My wife and I both had the hot dog platter, their hot dog sauce was great. We had onion rings and fries, the onion rings were fantastic. The dining area was clean and neat with plenty of seating. I would recommend The Triple H, I will stop in again when I'm in the area.

Good hotdogs and chocolate milkshakes. Been around since my high school days. Owned by the same…read morefamily.

I grew up on Frost Top hotdogs and root beer. They are notoriously understaffed but if you just…read morehonk your horn and they come rather quickly. I now live 13 hours away and do not know if I will ever make it back. If you are a fan of their hot dogs, root beer, or sauce on a bun you are fortunate. Get over your pet peeves and be thankful they are there. Would kill for the sauce recipe, and all the recipes that claim the to be WV sauce like Frost Top are not even close. Their fries are heaven. I have never had much of a reason to complain. The homemade Root Beer in frosted mugs is awesome. Where I live there is a chain that has recently opened, they serve the Root Beer in paper cups without the ice , way off the mark. The drive in is a lost breed of service but they do their best. You will mis it when they're gone!

Slow service but a nice place known for their root beer float. The prices are good…read more I'll come back when the ice cream machine is workiing.

Ordered the daily special (saw others ordering it), which was the meatloaf, got it with a side of green beans. It was tasty meat loaf,nice size portion and solid green beans.

Unfortunately they were out of collard greens. We ordered fried chicken livers for an appetizer and my wife got the rosemary rubbed rib sandwich and I ordered the brisket dinner and it was perfect The ribs are a sandwich but it's a slab of ribs on bread. Everything was very good. Well worth the side trip while traveling through.
