Chuck Wagon Drive-In — Restaurant in Mount Vernon

We moved to Skagit County almost 2 years ago and I've been intrigued by Chuck Wagon every time I passed by; the sign saying they were "voted best burger in WA. in 2006 (?)" just boosted my curiosity even more. One Sunday a close friend came up to visit from Seattle and we headed to Chuck Wagon for lunch along with my 2 young adult sons. The ambiance is somewhat entertaining as there are trains running along the top of the walls, there were a couple of classic arcade games in a small area they made into an arcade and articles/things on the walls/tables to read but other than that I found NOTHING positive about the Chuck Wagon. In fact, we refer to it as The 'Up-Chuck Wagon'! The young ladies taking orders did so with rudeness as we were insensitive enough to disrupt their phone/text time and answered questions with heavy sarcasm. Our orders were completely wrong when they arrived, thankfully none of us have food allergies. The burgers were just downright gross. I'm sorry but I cannot think of another word that is apt enough to describe them. I couldn't even eat half of mine. The fries were nasty, we got 1 order of onion rings to share and each of us had only the one we tried. I HATE to waste food but it was difficult to classify any of that as food so it was easier to throw it away. We gave our palates about a half hour then headed down the road to 'Scoops' where we always know we'll get a decent burger! Needless to say, we do not eat at The Up-Chuck Wagon. It's sad as, from what I've been told, the previous owners worked very hard to give their customers good quality food at...

Ok. Well when you walk in the train that goes around the top of your head is really cool. It is very nostalgic too a western cowboy, and Indians outlaws theme very cute once upon a time. It still could be. I would assume if it was busy enough to stay kept up. Probably definitely not the original owners. It was just one older woman at the register and probably her daughter at the grill. They had one short menu which usually I like because that usually means they specialize in what they have. This was just the opposite. I ordered a jalapeño burger with no bun because I’m trying to watch my bread intake with fries and a Dr Pepper. My meal was $14.99 and they charged me $1.75 extra for jalapeños, for my jalapeño burger! My boyfriend ordered a mushroom burger $9.99 and a pineapple milkshake $6.99. A regular that was small! A total of $40.36. We went and sat down. The older lady came and brought it to our table. When I saw it I knew just by seeing it I wasn’t going to eat it. The meat way a gray color. They were pre bought patties cooked on the grill. I attempted to cut up the burger and my plastic fork broke off in the patty. I almost threw up. At this point I was done. I ate my fries. He’s a man he ate his burger and we left. What a waste of money. I would not feed this food to my dog. By far my worst review so far. I’m sorry but it is. Do not waist your time do not eat here. The only good part about this place is the train above our head. Just gross. Oh, not to mention the lady at the front got mad at me because I asked for extra ketchup and mayonnaise...

My husband and I drive by this place when in the area and can't help but notice thier "voted best burger in wa 2006" sign. After talking about checking it out we finially did yesterday. The smell is very stale and smells of dirty cooking grease and dust. The decor is dated, but fun. I liked the murals/artwork covering the walls and tabletops....It is very clear this place was a hit maybe 10 years ago...but has since fallen under new management. We each ordered a buffalo burger for over $6 each. The patty was thinner, tougher and albeit as tasteless as McDonald's. We also ordered a regular drink and an onion ring order to share. The onion rings were terrible, thin, tasteless things that I wouldn't even buy at the grocery store. The young ladies taking orders were more interested in gossiping and playing on thier phones than doing thier jobs. This place was terrible. I was really looking forward to a good buffalo burger....but, like the name, "buffalo mush burger" it truely tasted like tough, tasteless mush. I was so dissapointed. To top it off my husband and I have been pretty ill most of the day today, with frequent bathroom trips being the motivation behind this review. For the same money, go to red robin or five guys...you will get much better quality that won't destroy your innargs. ugh. Not worth...
