Chompers Diner — Restaurant in Fanning Springs

I can agree the place has a wide variety for a menu , everything sounds good the drive thru people do good at doin there part but how come everytime i go i spend to much much for low quality food!! The menu items listed are yummy but when I get it what I ordered something is normally messed up or just not what it says. Went thru & paid almost $40 a few weeks ago, the CBR burger was made so sloppy, everything thrown on that bread, the bacon tasted old believe that’s why there was extra, the chicken was so fried the sandwich was just messy with ranch all around the buns. I didn’t eat the sandwich, said that’s okay cause the appetizers was decent. Went thru 2 days ago and got a Cuban sandwich, nobody else in the drive thru, when I got home and opened the box the Cuban was so messy put together half of what was supposed to be inside the sand which was cooked to the side of the sandwich, like cmon! Went thru there today, ordered some food with a chicken ceaser wrap, simple right, started eating it what I think now isn’t even a chicken ceaser wrap, it had lettuce everywhere no Ramano, no parmesiean, it had tomatoes, ate a few bites out of a half of the sandwich, I thought it had a piece of chicken tender in the center ended up being some CHEWY shrimp on my Chkn ceaser wrap. Miscommunication was possible, that was not what I ordered so once again my money was wasted on some messy food that’s never cooked right.! If your short on something y’all replace it with something else for us not to figure out til we get home. Luckily I’m not allergic to seafood as my mom is highly allergic or else that shrimp could’ve been bad!! A big menu doesn’t mean nothing when your short of items all the time, and it’s not made to what it says. That’s a steal. Why be able to charge such high prices for such poorly made things that sound good, bout the best thing there is is a milkshake. If your a texture person with your food I do not suggest this place, order simple things and you might not be disappointed, also anything you asked to be fried is a hit or miss. People work hard for there money and expect to get what they paid for. Never went somewhere & paid so much to be...

One word and that is perfect.

Okay sorry I have more then one word for this place. I took my family here on a whim, and boy were we happy with that sudden impulse. We got brisket sandwich and a large cheese fry for my fiancee, a kids cheeseburger with fries for our son, and a mushroom swiss burger and fried pickles chips for myself.

The brisket sandwich was melt in your mouth good with flavor that was phenomenal, cheese fries were delicious as well. Our son ate everything that he had which he is picky about what he eats, and he said that he loved it. I had a different experience that I never had with a mushroom swiss burger making this one the best I had ever, it was cheesy and the mushrooms were delicious, but don't get me started on the burger, it was delicious to the point that I am salavating just thinking about it. The fried pickles chips were delicious as well.

To top it off we all had their milkshakes, my fiancee had the peanut butter, which she absolutely loved. Our son had the chocolate milkshake and he loved it as well. I had the mango milkshake and it was delicious and I was sad that it was gone before I took a bite of the food.

All in all it was a perfect experience, all the food was delicious and perfect, the location of the restaurant is in a great spot, and the staff there was awesome. We can say this is one of our favorite restaurants in this area and will continue to come here.

Edit: We are going back...

After swimming in the springs we decided to try out Chompers as we had seen it and were curious. Let me first say that the food was good, a little cold because we decided to bring it home.

The reason for the low rating was the unprofessional employees and atmosphere. At first we were planning on getting drive through but noticed they had a few tables inside and chose to eat in. When we went inside we saw that the dining room was wide open to the kitchen and the employees. While this normally may not be a big deal it is when the employees choose to yell, argue, and use profanity loud and proud for all to hear. One of the ladies working the drive thru got agitated by a phone in order and proceeded to loudly express this using language that we don’t use and do not want our young daughters that were in there with us to hear. I wish I could say that this was the end of the matter, but it was not. When the phone in customer came inside she proceeded to argue loudly with him making my family feel unsafe and my wife chose to take our girls to our vehicle and change our order to take out. When I asked to switch to take out I realize that, even though we were waiting for at least 10 minutes and others had gotten their food, our food hadn’t even been started.

Since the food did taste good we may give it another shot...
