I was so excited to eat here after passing by on my trip from Kentucky to Bryant Ar. So I stopped on my way back and immediately I knew something was off. I was expecting an old fashioned small town version of Sonic but the speaker was broken so I had to go inside. My daughter had to use the restroom so they gave her a key and told her it was out back which is always a bad sign. I stuck with it though because I had written down the order for my whole family (7 people) and we were all looking forward to this. The lady working the counter saw my list and said it was ok she could work with it and didn't have any questions lol. We chatted a little more about how I was their most expensive order and she agreed I was lol. $75. So my kids and I then go to wait in the dining area, arms and clothes sticking to the table and seat back and fighting off flies. My daughter comes back from the bathroom with word about cockroaches. Eventually after an hour we received our food in a hamburger patty box, and I also bought a glass from them and gave them a tip in spite of the wait. Was so hot and sweaty in there we were all just ready to get back in the truck. After we're in we realize they forgot to put ice cream in the root beer floats we ordered, so I go back in to get this fixed. Now they're arguing back and forth and trying to figure out whether or not to charge me while my floats sit there on the counter. I'm largely ignored even though I'm standing there watching them and they go on to serve other victims. I've had enough at this point and just ask for the floats, so one of the ladies replies in broken English that she isn't sure if I paid for them. The girl who took my order shows the receipt and tries to explain which ends up causing two more ladies to join in, so now I have four ladies trying to figure out how to solve this problem. I get their attention because it's been another 20 minutes at this point and tell them to just take it out of the tip I already paid them. One of the feisty ones said I still owed $4 so I said whatever it's fine and paid it. Truly a terrible experience. Everyone who ordered burgers said it tasted worse than cafeteria food. My foot long chili cheese dog was kinda good but mostly "pasty" like a really cheap hot dog might taste. The floats are made with soft serve which actually does work out ok. Fries were unsalted and super greasy. Onion rings don't include any sauce.
None of my kids ever want to go back again. The free kids ice cream is those little round ice cream things they give away at school, so this place even figured out how to ruin ice cream for kids.
If the flies, cockroaches and rude employees are not enough to dissuade you from eating here, then remember you're trying to eat a good meal. That isn't on the menu here. Period.
P.S. I forgot to mention the cut banana with flies and the open milk jug, so please don't order banana splits or milkshakes here for your own safety. And this is just what I saw from the counter and dining area so who knows what the kitchen looks like. Cleanliness=respect for your employees...
Read moreEverything is absolutely filthy. Full size Flys , flying around the dining area, at least four, then i stopped counting, they don't bother doing anything about them, hot as hell inside, fresh water stains in the ceiling tiles of the dining room that's smaller than an average bedroom waitress clearly doesn't care root beer was absolutely not dog and suds root beer, the ice cream is generic soft serve and not even the good soft serve, don't even think about using the bathroom's, parking lot is a complete wreak with busted asphalt everywhere, black mold flowing down the back outside wall trash area was disgusting and smelly, but I still made the mistake of ordering. The chili cheese hotdog was disgusting . The onion rings were literally like burger king. The burger was an odd light gray color and tasted like charbroil burger from burger king but not as good as burger king. My root beer had bubbles at the top that would not disappear. Pepsi soda fountain only serves coke. This place is a sad dump of a rotting corpse of the shell of what was a decent burger joint living off of nostalgia and child hood memories. Oh and what looked like illegals in the kitchen only speaking Spanish. Do yourself a favor a stop and take a picture and don't risk getting sick on your road trip because that's all that's keeping this place alive, gullible tourists and locals who don't want to travel far. If this owner actually had any sense he would get a business loan and buy the abandoned building next door and demo it and the dog and suds and keep only the original signage and build a new one with nice large bathroom's car speakers that work and dine in counter and family seating. And get rid of the...
Read moreI I've been reading a lot of the reviews & they don't surprise me years ago I used to work at dog & suds and I've had this wake up interest at what the re like now so I've called twice to the dog & suds in Paragon Arkansas twice I've had the same lady answer and when I asked for the manager that she told me the manager wasn't there call back tomorrow. to top it off I think I heard whispering and laughing in the background I don't know what's going on with this dog and suds but it's something's not right I'm reading these reviews and seeing it's not right with customers whomactually at the store I'm calling long distance and I am concerned that I've had the same lady answer twice and tell me the same thing and I'm certainly concerned that I had the same lady calling twice and telling me the same thing the ma tell me to call back tomorrow because the manager wasn't there is not there call tomorrow. And there's no doubt that there's something going on anyway because I care about dog and suds and I care about people getting ripped off and I'm thinking about having someone come out and check out the restaurant the restaurant I really suggest you all do the same..
