Straying from the corporate, marketing by the ton fast food chains will perhaps lead to Stewart's. Who doesn't like a frosty Root Beer along with a very respectable burger. The problem is there's just too few of them to make this a destination run but if you're in the area, by all means, enjoy. read more

It's been awhile, but still a great go to. Same energy from the interior, same chill staff vibe, food is still on point. I like how his place feels lost in time! Nostalgia to a simpler time in the world with good yet simple food. Today I had the Chilis cheese dog (as is, no modifications), drink (not pictured) & onion rings.

I suggest you place your order ahead. We came by to order carry out this past Sunday after grocery shopping and it took almost 30 minutes to get our food. We ordered inside and waited in the car, the person who took our order also delivered the food to the car. What I ordered this time: - Cheesesteak - Wing Zing platter - Mint milkshake - Root beer float Everything was very tasty! The wing zings are what I would recommend if you were to only order one thing. They are crispy and have good flavor even without a sauce. read more

Exceptional Stewarts experience here on rt.27 in North Brunswick. Among the best classic hot dogs/chili dogs around and low key amazing wings! Love to the hard working Barbatsis family! Bobby! Sunshine read more

I've always loved Stewart's since I worked at one when I was in high school and this one in Franklin Park is a gem with great classic food at a great value. How can you go wrong with a great Coney Island dog, fries and a root beer! I won't quote the prices but their burgers, dogs, fries and even Greek dishes are so reasonably prices that I want to yell at them to raise their prices (but I won't!). And thank you for bringing back fond memories of working at one of these in my youth! - Bruce from North Brunswick read more

Value for nostalgia. The chili dog was superb. And root beer was, as always, the best.

TLDR: mediocre milk shake I stopped by to grab a chocolate milkshake. The service was quick, and I had my shake only a few minutes after ordering. The shake was icy and didn't have much flavor. It was pretty unpleasant and I wouldn't get it again. I rated it a bit higher because I know milkshakes aren't the main product of the store. read more

BEFORE YOU TIP CHECK YOUR BAG WHEEN YOU GET CAR SERVICE!,!,,, Had to catch his eye or he wouldn't have come out to take the order. My bag had a hot dog, fries. While sometimes customer has to ask for condiments,THERE WERE NO NAPKINs. Intentional, I'm sure. But he did accept the tip.......service poor and no conscience. The food was great. Poor service took away from enjoying my "cheat day meal" . If you don't want to do the job don't work there. 4/24/26,evening.. read more

Great food. Great value! Love the cheese fries and cheeseburger. Fast and efficient service!

I got the Greek salad with gyro meat and a side of tzatziki sauce. It was delicious! So flavorful and huge portions. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Stewart's Root Beer Drive-In - Greek Salad with Protein (gyro meat) - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

We have been going to Stewart's for over 40 years. The restaurant offers small area of counter service and a lot of car hop service. There really isn't any ambiance. They offer a small variety of foods, burgers, franks, chicken, BLT's, Gyros, salads, malts sodas, etc. ALL FOODS ARE MADE FRESH TO ORDER. I give them 5 stars and it's a MUST TRY FOR Y'ALL. read more

Delicious and cheap food. Easy to order online and pickup. Will definitely go again for a quick dinner!

This place never disappoints me. Food is always fresh & delicious. Service is super fast, and cooked fresh. Staff is great. It doesn't take longer than 10 minutes before you're enjoying your meal. Everything here hits the spot. I love the chill Ambiance of the old school drive in dining experience Definitely recommend this place read more

Love Stewarts! Burger and onion rings are very good, and the staff are very nice. It feels like eating in the 90's which is the best. If you have back problems you will have trouble with the seats. Overall I love this place and you should check it out. Plus cheap too! Also they are SUPER allergy friendly. I have about 6 allergies and they made sure my food was separate. read more

We came here recently after pumpkin picking around the corner! We have never been here before, but after this experience we cant wait to come back again. We didnt know that the staff comes to your car to take your order! They brought us a menu, and we ordered 2 dogs and almost every side! The staff was very friendly! After we ordered, it took about 10 minutes to get the food. While we were waiting, a guy started walking across the parking lot with a 6' staff, twirling it as he walked around. Kinda creepy... Not going to lie! He then went inside, and our waitress came out with the staff and twirling it 10x better then the guy did! So I guess it was dinner and a show night? HAHAHAHAHA! Our food was great! The cheese tasted off a little.... Maybe it was the cheese flavor? Might not get cheese fries again! But the Mozzarella sticks and onion rings were amazing! 100% would get again. My wife and I both enjoyed our dogs! All in all a cute place! If we were more hungry, we would have ordered actual foods instead of just snacks. We would also get drinks next time! This time we already had some... PS, parking lot needs a makeover! read more

Enjoyed our visit to Stewart's! Service was great and food was good. Happy to recommend car service - burger and fries with root beer float. Guys came out to take order and brought out food on tray that affixed to car window. Parking lot is clean and location is quiet. Onion rings and milk shake also great. If you're seeking a classic American experience, go to Stewart's for friendly service and good burgers, fries, and root beer float. read more

If you are looking to travel back in time a bit, then Stewart's is definitely a spot you should visit! A few of my co-workers had talked about this being one of those "must try" places so I was super excited to finally give it a try. As much as I really wanted to try their burger or hot dog, I opted for their gyro since the warm weather is around the corner but got the gyro platter that came with fries...yes I know I know! My co-worker got the same thing minus the fries and he immediately persuaded me to try one of their Sodas. I think one of the major selling points was that the soda would be served in an ice cold frosted pint type glass so I gave in! I got the Steward Orange Cream while he got the Root Beer and boy they were so good!! Our food came out shortly after and the gyros definitely did not disappoint! We both got the standard gyro which was shredded and they also had a chicken option. I found the gyro meat to be tasty and the fries had the perfect amount of crisp! And it wouldn't be complete unless you add a splash of hot sauce which they had. Overall, I thought the food was awesome and service was great! I would definitely return. read more

Disclaimer, this rating is simply on their Root Beer Float. Just simply delish! Yummmmm.... This place is tiny; old-American style bar with bar chairs around the counter and that's it. No other tables in the restaurant, so either you do take-out or just sit around the counter for your food/drinks. When I was picking up my Root Beer Float to go, I saw a couple sitting at the counter with their hot dogs and those looked great as well...maybe I should come back again and try their food. =) read more

Stewart's Root Beer Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

Best chili dogs!! Fast service. Really good onion rings and burgers too! Very willing to accommodate special requests - my Mom asked for her hotdog with sauerkraut under the hotdog and chili on top of the hotdog. What can I say - she's 85 yrs old! She got exactly the way she asked for it.!! She was thrilled. My only complaint - I ordered the Root beer float and the girls didn't let the soda settle. So when I got it, it was only half a cup of soda. read more

Amazing food !! Amazing Service!!! Left town for about three years and came back to this place and it still exceeds expectations!! Never had a bad experience here . read more

The most delicious lamb gyro I have had in this area. Highly recommend. People are nice and service is amazing. read more

When you order a root beer float tell them to hold the curly black hair! Always enjoy the hotdog with the works, I didn't realize the works included human hair in your beverage...... just sayin' . The waitress hardly apologized! So sorry to ruin YOUR day.! read more

Stewart's Root Beer Drive-In - Black hair in root beer float.. - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

I was nice to be able to have a meal delivered to my car. Not wanting to go and eat inside if it can be helped. The temperature was over 90 so eating outside wasn't that great an option either. We had some burgers, hot dogs and a fish sandwich. The food was fine. The hot dog wasn't awesome just ok. The burgers were good and the fish sandwich looked very good. The young lady who served us was courteous and professional. She checked in with us to see if there was anything we needed. I would go back. read more

About once a year I get a craving for a crazy caloric meal that I know I'd soon regret but feel so happy while I consume it. I really wanted cheese fries and a float and my bf wanted a chili dog, Stewart's fit the bill. I always forget that Stewart's is the original Sonic where you can eat in your car. I'm not a big fan of eating in my car so we opted to sit inside, which has a bar-like set up. The server inside greeted us promptly and took our order. Our food came out in about 10 minutes or so, as it's made to order (and you can see into the kitchen from the bar area). We ordered chili dogs, onion rings, California burger (lettuce, tomato, onion), cheese fries and an orange float (yea don't judge us :)). Everything was very enjoyable and curbed our junk food craving. Only thing I wouldn't order again is a burger, only because I didn't find it had much flavor and was very flat. Guessing it's the original recipe from 1924? As we were leaving and placing a to go order to bring back to my sister, the chef in the kitchen saw we didn't finish our onion rings and handed us a take out bag for them, which was so sweet of him. Only other thing of note, this location has Greek menu items like gyros and Greek salad. I definitely want to come back and try these out! read more

Terrible. We will not be back. I don't know if the ownership has changed, but our recent experience was absolutely mediocre. BLISTERING HOT INSIDE - ONLY FANS CIRCULATING HOT AIR (no A/C). Ordered a chili-cheese dog, bun was stale and the cheese was simply shredded/unmelted cheddar on top of the below average chili. Ordered a Mt. Dew, no syrup. Ordered a Pepsi, flat (no carbonation). My partner ordered a cheese steak, role was stale too (at least they're consistent). Ordered a Root Beer extra ice -- Half way decent, but extra ice I guess meant put in three ice-cubes (I'm not kidding). One other customer asked for them to cut his sandwich in half. It took so long, he left in frustration with the counter people completely unfazed. Guys, you're in the food business. It's competitive. You need to do better than this. The fact the place is empty at lunch time should tell you something (or many things). read more

Someone recommended I go back to try their gyros and I'm glad they did because they are some of the best I've ever had! Gotta bump it up to a three star for that. read more

Great friendly service and awesome food. They have really good Buffalo wings believe it or not. Greek salad is always fresh as well.

Stopped here during COVID everyone was so nice!! My car battery died when I was trying to leave and a nice gentleman( maybe the owner) helped me get my car started in the heat. What an amazing group of people!! I will come back just to support their business! read more

Had a craving for Stuarts tonight so we found his one in Somerset and drove over. Had two killer hamburgers, with fries, my wife had a cheeseburger with mozzarella sticks. Everything was incredibly awesome!! Thanks - We'll be back very soon!! . read more

This Stewart's feels like it was left in the 70's...which is awesome! It's a little drive up restaurant with picnic tables outside and bar-style seating inside. The employees were friendly to the point where it felt like you were eating in a friend's restaurant. It doesn't have air conditioning, so they had the doors propped open. Not a big deal unless it's super hot out, but for the elderly/heat sensitive people, I wouldn't recommend coming here on a hot and humid summer day. Onto the food..! I ordered a California Cheeseburger (mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion) and onion rings. My boyfriend ordered the cheeseburger and a hot dog. All the food is very simple, but made fresh to order and is so so cheap. I couldn't get over the prices. Our entire meal (we each had a drink) was $15. The food tastes like someone's home barbecue...not out of this world, but simple and well done. I would love to eat here every day if my arteries wouldn't burst open, but I definitely will be going back soon to try a root beer float! read more

This is not your average Stewart's. They have the best chicken gyros- perfectly seasoned and juicy. Their tzatziki sauce is the bomb, and the staff are the nicest! Such a hidden gem. read more

I tried it once just because I was craving for a Rootbeer, then I ordered Gyro Lamb, it was so good that I am now one of their regular customers! read more

I ordered from door dash. The delivery fee and timing was fine and reasonable. However, when I ordered my Buffalo chicken wrap, I made sure to check off fried as well as add special instructions in CAPS that read "no bleu cheese please (:" When I received my order it had both bleu cheese and grilled chicken instead of fried. I have a dairy intolerance. The wrap itself was not that good. read more

Food wasn't great at all and we expected a little better. Ordered gyro with fries. Chicken wasn't cooked completely and I can feel it's rawness. Have to throw away after two bites. Fries wasn't great too for the price. Not well fried and served. Most importantly people at the counter wasn't wearing any gloves and I can see the lady delivered food to the cars in the parking lot. For gods sake wear proper gloves for own safety and customers. Will not recommend this place. read more

Aside from the finest frosty mugs of rootbeer, the team at Stewart's Rootbeer make great food too! We were exceptionally pleased with their authentic Philly cheesesteaks and grilled marinated chicken sandwiches. Highly recommended. read more
