I'm a big fan of old school Americana and The White House is just that, a classic burger joint that serves ice cream and a ton of sandwich and hot dog options. They used to have hot rod cruise days but I'm not sure if they still do it. It's a great photo location if you have a muscle car. The burger took me back, it was so familiar. It's simple and good with thin patties. I also tried the bbq fries on a recommendation from the girl taking my order. They are seasoned with a special salt mixture and have great flavor. My favorite part of the whole thing is they have Hot Fudge milkshakes a rare find. It was sooo good! All in all it's a great experience. The place was packed when I went. A lot of people were regulars and the staff knew them by name. They close at 4:00pm and are not open on the weekends so be mindful when you go. read more

A roadside burger stand. It was the entire beginning of the McDonald's empire. And just like McDonald's, this place starts with their shakes! The theming in kitsch. But the food Is banging. I ordered a cherry malt which is not something you can find everywhere and boy did they deliver. Lots of flavor. It just pops. I got the Philly with nacho cheese sauce instead of Swiss. It was awesome. My friend got the hot roast beef and he said it was also very good. I look forward to seeing what else they have. But, that cherry malt was the bomb. Worth the drive. 100% read more

Okay, let me set the scene: I've lived in the Antelope Valley most of my life, and somehow never stopped at this legendary little spot. Ted's has been flippin' burgers since 1955 when you could snag one for just nineteen cents (can we bring that back?). It's changed names more than a pop star rebrand--Kay's, Jolly Jax, Walz Hr No. 1, Syd's--and finally landed as the White House on Division Street. Iconic, right? I mentioned to my best friend that I'd been dying to try it--she immediately lit up like it was memory lane and started reminiscing about corndogs and fries with her grandma. And let me tell you, she wasn't lying: THEY. DID. NOT. MISS. This place has been on my foodie to-do list for three whole years and guess what? 2025 is my year, baby! I finally pulled up for lunch and let me just say--it was love at first bite. I ordered a corn dog, fries, and a taco (yes, a taco!) all for under 10 bucks. It was hot, fresh, fast, and full of flavor. No frills, just good food done right. If you're all about supporting local spots with soul and a slice of history, do yourself a favor and swing by. Ted's isn't just a drive-in--it's a whole Antelope Valley rite of passage. I'm officially a believer... and already planning my next trip back! read more

Odd hours, but the food is amazing. I love the feel of the old school hole in the wall vibe.

I love the burgers in this place they're awesome best burgers in town. The fries are really good too.

Always a great spot for a fantastic burger and fries! Staple for me in the AV. Highly recommend

I've been coming here since they opened. Best burgers ever. The best onion rings in town he AV. Good ice tea too. I'm in love with this place. read more

Ordered the Geroge bush burger combo. $18 Not worth it. Idk how your have 4.8 stars. Maybe for customer service but food quality is trash. Won't be eating here again.. Frozen patties.. blah... read more

This place kind of disappointed me. From a distance it looked like a nice, good clean place and it was. Customer service was also good. The disappointment came when I spent about $8 for fries and a drink and I got this teeny tiny fist of fries with this really bad seasoning on it that I didn't like at all and it made the back of my throat itch and burn. My dog didn't even like the fries. He kept spitting them out. And the drink was a cup packed with ice and had maybe five gulps in it. After experiencing a mild allergic reaction and being denied a refill to wash it down unless I pay another dollar I promptly left read more

Good food great prices and good customer service!! Would recommend it for sure, had the Donald Trump combo never had a burger with a hash brow, will be coming back for sure.. read more

I definitely recommend this place! The food was really good and warm. Order the BBQ fries cause the seasoning of them is the best! The Service was good & fast. read more

If you want to take a trip back to yesteryear and have a good, great tasting old-fashioned hamburger this is the place. No fluff no stuff just plain old good old-fashioned smiling faces and great food. I've been going to this place off and on for over 20 years and my favorite is the jalapeño burger With avocado. I don't know if they still have it but they had a Trump burger an Obama burger and haven't been there lately but they always are inventing new Burgers. read more

This is one of my favorite places to get a burger. The food is always fresh, there is plenty in the menu to enjoy, and the folks who run the place are always nice and welcoming. The ONLY downside to this place is that they close earlier than most places, but that would by no means ever deter me from getting here to eat. The Jalapeño Avocado is FIRE. Fries are always fresh. read more

The White House - Double Jalapeño Avocado Burger - Burgers Near Me - Lancaster, California

USA and Taco fries. For life. This place changed hands a few times, the fortunate thing is the flavor didn't. It is exactly what is always has been and if people don't understand that, they should not come and be here. Eating here is a nostalgic experience that takes you back to old Lancaster. I love this place and hope it doesn't ever change. read more

Simple, quick, and friendly spot. I got the George W. Bush combo and I have to say it wasn't bad. I also upgraded my fries to a chili cheese fries and that was not great. I wasn't too disappointed and would come here again if I am in the area. read more

The food was good, hot, fulfilling and they gave us nice portions. They are very fast and everything was nice and hot.

This place was really good at first I thought it might be just ok but turned out my family and I love the place . I will say my real only complaint is they have limited hours I think it should be open longer and 7 days a week , oh and they are a little slow but we'll worth the wait . Server seemed really friendly and helpful but again they need to stay open longer for those of us who have full time jobs and can't take off early to get there in time before they close .plan on trying the chili dog next visit if they are open . read more

The best burger ever. This establishment has been around for years. They have an extensive menu. Everything is excellent. I remember going here when I was a teenager. I think it's the best. read more

Came through on a Thursday, but remember this place is only open mon-Friday. But right too the point ordered a number 3 which was a double with cheese, fries and a soda 7.10 which is cheaper then in n out by like about two dollars. Everything was hot fresh fries were good but the burger was great an also crushed ice which is a plus. The guy who took my order Also had a great attitude which is another plus. So if your still wondering about that lil White House in Lancaster it's a good. read more

Very polite employees and always have wonderful food and quick service today I got the vice president combo and it was delicious. Very nice man running the window who was quick efficient and cared about his customers. Nice tables outside you can eat at if you choose to. read more

I wish the White House on Saturday's still. That's the day of the week that I usually drive in from Vegas when I come to visit. It was always a mandatory stop for breakfast when they were still open on Saturdays. My Mom was close friends with John and Daryl when they owned it. Back when I lived in the A.V. we would go for breakfast as I said or taquitos. Pepper bellies or chili cheese fries. read more

Great burger and fries. Old fashion for sure. Get the burger they way it is on the menu and spend your extra change in the vinegar fries. Chocolate shakes are old fashion too!! read more

I asked the owner does he have any homemade food and he says. Where is home? Then goes on to say Go home. I dont know if he was joking or not but its not a way to respond to customers that is asking a real question Homemade is from your heart and starts in the kitchen, so thats what homemade means. read more

Been going here for years food has always been good, cooked when you order it and hot when you receive it. Tired of the regular fast food joints give this place a try, these folks still do it right. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover, and don't judge this restaurant by its appearance. Yes, it does seem to be in a not so nice area... When I arrived I was by myself and unsure to even get out. I learned fast I shouldn't have judged. First off, the service was EXCELLENT! I was impressed instantly. Their menu is HUGE, its easy to get confused. The guy taking my order can tell I had never been there before and helped me to order. He was very nice and helpful. Of course, in the good ole AV its mighty windy and I was wearing a dressing. SO, with one hand I was holding my dress down and when my order was up, the guy saw that I would only be able to use one hand so he went and got me a box and but everything in it so I could carry it easy! Super nice. Now for the real question, hows the food!? Lets just say, AWESOME! Someone I knew got the George Bush Burger, it was soo yummy. It had bbq sauce, two patties, and onion rings. Lets just say it was a legit burger. As for me, I had chili cheese frys, oh how yummy. They reminded me of my childhood and going to the park to watch my cousins baseball games, and eating chili cheese frys from the snack bar. OH but wait there's more... they have desserts... here in the AV when your melting away, I highly suggest coming for an hawaiian shaved ice, I had the raspberry one... omg so good. Price wise, decent. I believe they are worth every penny. Overall, icky neighborhood but delicious food. Its worth it. read more

I have been coming here since my high school years (1996-2000) and I have always been satisfied. I love and have always ordered the Whitehouse and BBQ fries. I have introduced many of my coworkers to this spot and they all love it. My kids love this place and the prices are outstanding for the price. My only gripe with this place previously was that it was cash only but they have since started to accept debit/ credit cards so this is a perfect 5 stars for me. I do wish they stayed open later. read more

Food is really good. Fast and friendly service. Good portions and good prices. dont be fooled by the exterior

This is my favorite Burger Joint! Great food! ALWAYS fresh and hot. The people are cool and always nice. It's in an older area of town, but don't let that discourage you. Love that Jalapeño Avacado burger combo! I haven't tried any of their desserts or other treats, because I am usually stuffed when I leave, but if it's as good as the food there is no doubt it's delicious. I can't believe how many people that live and grown up here, that have never been here. Do yourself a favor and try them out! You won't regret it! read more

Very enticing menu in this old-time roadside diner. They have a couple of burgers named after recent presidents; a George H. Bush Burger, a George W. Burger, and an Obama Burger. Unfortunately we had just eaten lunch an hour early so we just settled for softee cones. The guy behind the window was extremely friendly and the place looked clean. Definitely on my list of places to come back to. read more

At a hamburger stand where you're not sure if you should bring a body-guard with you, or if you're going to make your new bff. This place is in the ghetto part of town and looks like nothing from the outside, hence I have passed it many times over the last year living here. The burger was small, but it was good. I would go back, but it's not on my favorite places in Lancaster list. The guy working there was nice and friendly and got my food out to me quick. It was worth the stop. read more

This is an out of the way, older hamburger stand east of Interstate 5 in Lancaster. In addition to drive in menu items, they also have several Dairy Queen items including soft serve ice cream and dipped cones. French Fry review: You get a very small portion of fries for a very small price, $1.25. The fries have no skin or seasoning and appear to have been frozen but were somewhat more uneven in size than most frozen fries. The fries were quite similar to McDonald's fries but seemed most like I remembered french fries from a hamburger place from my childhood. they were slightly crispier and definitely greasier but the overall flavor was just a bit better than McDonald's. read more

My Husband and I have been going to The White House since we moved down the street .It's been here for as long as I can remember.The food is delicious my favorite is the avocado bacon burger my husband is a 3x extra cheese. besides their food being so amazing the people there are very friendly very nice they make you feel at home. as a matter of fact I think I'm going to go there for lunch today anyone care to join me if you haven't been there you should try it reasonable prices great food great service.

I have been eating at the White House since back in the 70's and as others have stated, it is still exactly the same flavors! I just love this place! Yes, it has had couple of different owners but the current owners are incredibly nice and feel like a part of old Lancaster. I hope that you will give them a try! read more

I was in the Lancaster area for work when I came across this burger stop. I have to say right off the bat I really have a love for places like this quaint, unique, chill atmosphere and quality are all aspects that chain restaurants don't have so whenever the opportunity to stop at small burger place is there I take it. The menu was the first thing that popped for me especially the presidential themed combos, I chose the Obama with a cheeseburger and chili fries though the fries weren't the greatest (kinda thin for my liking) they are still tasty with the chili and cheese toppings and the cheeseburger reminded me of the school cafeteria cheeseburgers, some may take this as an insult but I do not mean it like that in anyway the burger was amazing and the nostalgia taste only made the visit all the more worth in my opinion. Only con is it is located in Lancaster which is quite the drive, but now I have an option for when I head out there again. read more
