Rick's Parkside Drive-In Restaurant — Restaurant in Palmer

Never really busy, so no real wait time to order and it doesn't take long to get served. Ice Cream is great. I recently tried the dairy free pineapple and I hope it never goes away! I took away a star because of how the ice cream is always served. It doesn't matter what you get; a large, medium, or small the cones will all be a mess of poorly placed soft serve. The last time I went the small I got for my son was the larges of them all and mine, which was a large, was the smallest. I guess it's a trade off. Just don't expect a nice soft serve cone here is all. Maybe later on in the season...

The girl was good taking my order. Very friendly. The food window girl was kinda rude. I asked for ketchup for my fries and bacon cheese hot dog and she looked at me like I had two heads and was speaking another language. I speak English pretty clearly. The bacon looked like it was microwaved, something you would find in a public school. Horrible. The cheese was not so good . It was like they microwave d the whole thing. I was highly disappointed. I couldn't even eat half of my meal. At least the dog enjoyed it. I don't recommend...

Long lines with only 1 person working trying to do everything all at once.

There are picnic tables. There is also a very dangerous swing set for entertainment that looks like it hasn't been maintained in 50 years. Lots of parking.

They seem to only have soft-serve in various flavors. Was surprised when I ordered a strawberry smoothie and the first thing they did was add some thin red goo to the cup.

Much better ice cream places locally unless you really...
