Came here a couple of times, has been relatively consistent aside from one missing burger. Worker was understanding when we came back, didn't ask for a receipt or any other proof. Food isn't groundbreaking but is nostalgic and relatively fresh. Doesn't get soggy after some time. Fries portions have been generous most times. Always crispy. A bit pricey, but has always been a go-to for those lazy nights. read more

We watched 3 employees play paramedic to a man who looked like he had been severely beaten or in a car accident. They had bloody paper towels in their bare hands and instead of putting it in the dumpster they were next to, they took it inside past everyone at the drive in. Not to mention we were asked to hold (not a big deal, they were going through a lot), but then asked if we were waiting, and when we said we were two employees got in a fight over who was going to take our order, but no one actually did. When I called the manager to tell him, he didn't know what was going on, and told me that he would call an ambulance "after I'm done cooking these orders." When I told him we wouldn't be back because it wasn't sanitary, he said they were always sanitary, but didn't have an answer when I asked how putting bare hands on blood was sanitary. read more

This is the worst zips I have ever seen, screaming from the kitchen, a guy taking orders dealing with cash, and running to the kitchen to help the screaming cook. With a bloody tatoo on his face, the manager just strolling around. read more

First time in spokane and a few people recommended this place. So decided to go last night 930pm. This Star is just for them being open late around that area. Drive thru customer service needs definitely a tuning especially for the supervisor (older woman) that took our order. Should of left our order behind due to the bad vibes. Got our order and damn was the burgers terrible. Fries was perfectly cooked but was toooo salty. The Huckleberry shake was ok (d lish was way better) and chocolate shake (gave my sister diarhea). Wasted my money and threw the food away. Should a took the extra time and went to town instead. Will never come back, never recommend to family and friends. I hope the other locations are not like this. Didn't see or taste the 70 years of business. Wish I took pics! read more

Not sure why I order fries or anything from there. Maybe it's because I like the tarter sauce from Zips. However when the fries are constantly cold I don't understand how they stay in business. read more

I stopped in before the Great White concert but won't stop there again. The gal behind the counter, who had red hair didn't know anything about their food. I asked if the tater tots were crispy & she said; Um.. I don't know. I then asked if the curly fries were seasoned & she said; Um.. I don't know, but I can tell you that they are red. The food was getting cold because the two up front couldn't keep up. The cooks had everything cooked as they were waiting for the orders. At this point, I think that a robot would have done a better job. read more

I may be in the minority but I do live me some zips. The crinkle fries and twist ice cream cones are my very favorite but I don't mind the burgers either. I always look forward to when we get to stop in. Today, everyone seemed pretty grumpy and most of the table tops were dirty. I carry clorox wipes in my purse so I just wiped a table down. I think they were having a rough day in there. The food was good though! read more

Went into the drive in with a friend who has been living in Alabama and really wanted to have Zips burgers, as she remembered them from when she lived here. When we ordered at the drive-through, they told us it was going to be 20 minutes for two burgers, no fries no nothing. Since it was her only chance on the trip to get her zips burgers, we waited over 20 minutes, got to the window and paid. After waiting about five more minutes, The window person told us it was going to be at least another 20 minutes. We requested a refund and discussed, and told her we would not be back. She said "we're busy" was her only explanation. If she would've told us it was going to be an hour when we ordered, we certainly would have not bothered. I felt really bad for the five or six cars that were left behind me in line. They too had undoubtedly been lied to at the point of order and were going to find out about the next unreasonable delay after they paid for their order. Completely ridiculous and likely my last trip to zips EVER. read more

I went here with my grandma, and we ordered large cones, and they were LARGE! Tasty and unique variety of food, but I love how they make the coffee milkshakes! It was served fast and the place gives 90s vibes! read more

The food here is what you would expect and always done right. I also love that they are open 24hrs at the drive through AND lobby. They also get the details right like having jalapeño catsup available if you want to kick up the spice a bit. This location is always clean and I have not run across an employee that hasn't been anything but nice. Knocking off one star as they are more spendy than other burger places in the area. read more

If you want the wrong order with a side of attitude then I'd go here. I don't think I've ever met more careless and rude staff.

Eh, not great. I ordered the halibut sandwich with a side of fried mushrooms to go. Both were hot but just ok. I left feeling I could have spent my time and money better. The service here was more underwhelming than the food. The drive through was really busy but not the inside counter. Two of us were standing there waiting for our food. We could see it sitting there waiting for some to pick it up and put it on the counter. Three employees just stood there milling around and talking while we waited. read more

I just had the best experience at this Zips, amazing customer service by Robbie, the food was great the prices are amazing and the ambiance of this restaurant was exceptional read more

Not sure why the reviews are so terrible here. Service here is good and the breakfast is always great. Not a big fan of the lunch options or the high prices but we are frequenters in the morning. read more

Zip's is a made to order chow drive up known for off the flattop (griddle) items and fries kind of place. When I was young we called this genre "Greasy Spoons". I ordered the hotdog with grilled onions, mustard and relish. It was decent and hot. Nothing great but an average dog. I enjoyed it! The servers were nice and seemed to really care. I know what you're thinking...sounds at least 3-Star? But the bathroom was filthy and workers were standing around. Folks that's gross!!! I've used cleaner Port O Potty's in the dessert--and they were used by hundreds. Clean your bathrooms man!!!! You're a public restaurant. 1-Star sadness. read more

Slow workers, dont change the fryer oil often enough so the fries are gross. And workers have a bad attitude all the time.

We stop often for breakfast. It is like home cooked. Excellent food, big portions and until recently a good atmosphere. Been coming here for breakfast for years, breakfast crowd is mostly middle age or older. Today the rap music coming from the kitchen has got me looking for a different place for breakfast. read more

This Zips location in Airway Heights, is WELL worth the short drive from Cheney. The restaurant is clean and bright, the food is delicious and (unlike the Cheney location) they always have enough cod for their Friday fish and chips sale! read more

First time at ZIP's Drive-In. Had the cheeseburger, family got a "tub" of curly fries (a very generous portion). Kids got the grilled chicken sandwich. All was flavorful. Have to comment that the fries were voted the "best" fries with consideration of crispness, spice flavor, and temperature. Our food arrived hot and fresh, which is so important when you get fries. Dipping sauces were flavorful, and family enjoyed the jalapeño flavored ketchup and ranch. I'd return again if we return to the Spokane area. read more

Employees do not wear masks or spear to adhere to COVID guidelines. Multiple staff not wearing masks over either mouth or nose.

Multiple times now, I've come to this location and these young employees make up their owns rules. They will close and hour early, stop serving ice cream an hour early, stop serving breakfast with ten minute until 11am because "they already have enough breakfast orders in". They do not adhere to the rules and operational needs of Zips. I am disgusted and disappointed with the lack of proper customer service. Upper management (Tony) or someone higher up needs to put their foot down and manage this location. This is ridiculous. read more

Quick service with very friendly and polite people. I got my chicken strip with French fries with drink for $5! I asked to get crunchy fries and they did it for me. It was good;) we stopped by on the way to go to the airport. We'll go again if we'll ever go to the area. read more

Well I'm not from the area but visit about once a month for work at the Air Force Base. I decided to give Zips a chance to redeem themselves from my last visit . All I can say is they failed again. I ordered a fish sandwich which was OK. I ordered the onion rings and they were terrible. Old cooking oil is not good to cook onion rings in and other things. I have an extensive background managing fast food restaurants and can tell when cooking oil needs to be changed. The appearance of the employees needs attention , kid with baseball hat turned around backwards sure don't present a good impression for customers . No thank you for your business and liked like none of the employees wanted to either help customers or be there. . It is a shame that these folks don't care . I did on a positive note see the kitchen personnel change gloves and use sanitizer often. Kudos to them . I will not be back to this location I hope they can improve but looking at other comments posted here this one has a history of poor quality and service. read more

I can't believe we just got charged 18.00 for this meal. It was literally 3 fish sticks and 8?onion rings. The fish tasted like it had been fried 3 times. Pure rubbish and the onion rings were so salty I ate one and one only. I have been to the zips in Cheney and it was amazing. I will never go here again. If I could give a negative 3 stars I would do so. Sorry Airway Heights Zips. You suck! The fish was 1/2 inch wide and 2 1/2 inches long. My husband was so hungry after eating this that I had to make dinner anyway. Loss of love here! read more

I've known 3 people who have worked at 3 different zips in spokane. I know what standards they have. Without a doubt this is the worst zips I have ever been to. I honestly have no idea why I keep going back thinking it's going to be any different. I don't know if it's just a different owner, bad management, or what. The customer service is terrible, I get one to two word responses, I am not greeted at the window. I am told what I owe for the food and that's about it. I have asked for NO pickles every single time I go there and every single time there's pickles on my burger. I ask for a strawberry banana shake, I get peanut butter chocolate. I ask for ranch, I get fry sauce. If you live in airway heights, or are just staying here in a hotel, I urge you to go to the zips just 10 minutes away on 3rd avenue. Stop giving these people business, because no matter how many times I have to go back to their restaurant because of their f*** up, they never learn. read more

Dinner with a show. My husband and I frequent zips often but we've had to stop eating inside and do take out. The food taste 10x better when you eat there but you will hear staff having a knock down drag out at the register infront of god and everybody with no shame. An older man who I believe is manger but I wouldn't know bc he doesn't wear a name tag or have small talk with you (no matter how nice you are, if you're the only person there or how much you tip). That man is rude to customers and treats his employees horribly. Just from what my husband and I have witness in the 3 times we went inside has made us go to the drive thru or completely go somewhere else. We have witness scream in teenagers face for not doing something while being busy and the manger stands at register playing on his phone. The last straw for us was when he was complaining about an employee saying this person was "a waste of space,time, energy, money and life" read more

WOW!! Stopped here before flying out. Totally in awe of this restaurant. They use real plates, coffee cups and they have silverware and not the plastic kind. Breakfast was one of the best I've ever had. The staff super super friendly. I will stop here more open! Open 24 hours read more

If your hungry for breakfast bring a friend, we had the new Big Boss breakfast sandwich (optional Hash Brown instead of lettuce and tomato) yes this is definitely a two person sandwich, 3 eggs, sausage, bacon cheese and hash browns on a Big Boss Hamburger Bun, great coffee and awesome service. read more

Zip's Drive-In - a bacon and egg sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Airway Heights, Washington

Absolutely unacceptable. On 3 July I waited just shy of 20 minutes with only two cars in front of me in the drive thru after placing my order for a tub of onion rings (I was already in a hurry so I didn't inspect my food before pulling back into traffic), and when I tried to eat them, I was greeted with a cold, doughy congealed blob of grease that I paid $12 for. Had I not already been several miles away before reaching in to the tub, I would've gone back in and poured it out onto the counter in front of all the other patrons before demanding a refund. If this laziness and lack of care goes into their food, I shudder to think how many people have gotten food-borne illness from their under cooked meat products. I will never be back to this Zip's unless it is completely restaffed, and highly recommend anyone else stay away. Whoever failed to prepare this disgusting excuse for food needs to be terminated from their job and have their food handler's license (if they even have one) revoked. read more

Its fast food, and I know a lot of people that like zips, but I am not one of them. I know a lot of college students that swear by zips, but I prefer more to my burger. Their toppings are limited, and that's my main complaint. Their burgers didn't taste overly greasy, but they lacked the flavor I wanted, because they didn't have the topping options I am used to. I would tell you what they lacked, but I have forgotten sense I stopped going there. read more

The customer service was so bad the lady at the window had attitude and didn't even tell us which drink was what and then messed up our order read more

I'm sorry if I took too long to order but what do you expect if your ordering for seven people that are picky. I came down for a funeral and decided to go to zips on my way out of Spokane. The cashier was annoyed of me and my husband and rolled her eyes a few times. She was even getting mad when I had to change things up. First of all maybe she should study the menu that way she won't be annoyed of me when asking questions, second Thank you for stopping by. Lastly, get a cashier that loves to work with customer service. I think I might have said thank you and sorry more than five times. I will not return to this location again.

Quiet clean! Little spendy but people are super nice! Foods great! And they have cherry Pepsi on tap which is fabulous

Today I experienced the rudest customer service ever. I went to the drive through window and asked for a chicken sandwich. She asked Grilled, crispy, or spicy. I asked can I have the chicken sandwich spicy and crispy. She remained silent. I said hello and she rudely said I'm waiting for you to make a decision. I honestly didn't say anything and just left the line. I will never be coming back to this establishment. I just moved here from Texas and wanted to try something new. However, zips drive through people need to practice better customer service. read more

Had to wait 15 min in the drive thru with only 1 car ahead of me, and then the burgers were burned...normally like zips, Airway Heights was not impressive. read more

Love zips ..Not in Airway hts burgers are cold I noticed they precook them ..staff is loud and full of Drama.

This is one of the more disappointing Zips I have been to. I have to say that I LOVE the ice cream options they offer, but that's about it. Zips has always been a childhood favorite of mine, so it's pretty disappointing to live near one that constantly has soggy french fries, and the prices are much higher than other Zips in the area. Free Wi-Fi is a plus.... read more

I love getting breakfast here.....however I don't Usually come here at night. Now I know why...,the service was horrible. Employees were not very helpful. I also bought two bags of ice....they are usually full bags. I only got 2/3 and she didn't even close them. I recommend the weekday breakfast, but other then that go somewhere else for good customer service. read more

One of my favorite places to go in airway heights but i'm pretty convinced none of the workers know the difference between fry sauce and tartar sauce. I said, TARTAR SAUCE. read more
