Connie's Drive In — Restaurant in Municipality of Russell – Binscarth

I don’t like to review bad places anymore but I felt had to for this place.

Apparently Connie’s Drive in has two ordering windows. Both are for ordering hot food or ice cream. Felt a bit foolish standing at the first window for 15mins after the girl in glasses said she needed to take care of some orders and closed the window on me.

Now I’m not a local so maybe this some type of new customer hazing. Also they made sure to add bacon which extra $$ when I ask for not bacon.

Price was very reasonable ($36). Compared to the drive inn we are use to this was cheap and way bigger portions. Very impressed. Good service too. It was fairly busy when we were there, about 4 other families waiting at the same time. Took only about 10 minutes for the order to be ready. I have to mention the washrooms were also very clean. Nice to see. I have seen “drive inn” washrooms...

“This is exactly the type of burger I’ve been craving”, were the first words out of my mom’s mouth when she took a bite out of her burger!

The burger patty was flavourful in the best way and the onion rings were probably the best I’ve ever eaten. Can’t wait to go back and try the deep fried perogies!

A few picnic tables and benches are available to eat your meal at and they do have public restrooms which were...
