Coasters Diner — Restaurant in Sandusky

Me and my family come to cedar point once a summer and I ALWAYS make it a point to eat here! The burgers and fries r better than any other park restaurant and the vibes r so diner. I literally feel like I stepped back to the 50s. The booths, the jukebox, and the music all give excellent vibes! The booths fill up fast so come early or just come late at night when the parks about to close. I absolutely love the strawberry milkshake here it’s my favorite! The root beer float here is disgusting it tastes like chocolate lol. The booths r super retro and have their own mini jukeboxes. Now there is a trick to this place not many people know about. If you yell JUKEBOX really loud u can get a free meal. Seems weird and awkward but it worked for me and my friends. They also have live shows where the employees jump out of the retro cars and start singing oldies hits. So much fun to watch. I can’t wait to come back here for the burgers and the strawberry milkshake. Last time I got a milkshake as I was leaving the AC unit blew my cherry off the top and a cop behind me stepped on it and I cackled super loud and ran off 😂. The service is typically good but the employees can be a little more enthusiastic at times than others. I would recommend this place if ur at cedar point. Lots of cute twink guys come in here as well. Good...

TLDR: food was good, employees seemed tired and over the entitled nature of the human cattle being herded through the line as if waiting for a ride, strawberry shake was good, chocolate was NOT

The waiting in line for the food was less than nice, but you’re at an amusement park with thousands of other people- what do you expect? 😅

There was a good amount of options there for food, we got an order of fries and onion rings. Then, I saw the display for the parfaits and decided I needed to have one, it was devilishly beautiful 🤩. Everything was good, but especially the parfait, which I scarfed down so quickly that my bf had looked down and up again and it was gone- which caused great joy as we both guffawed at my gluttony 🤣.

We also decided since we were pigging out 🐷, that we would get a chocolate malt and a strawberry malt. The strawberry one was good, but the chocolate one was not. It just tasted like vanilla with like an “off” flavor. We went back in to inquire if they could make a new one because it looked and tasted wrong, and we were told that that’s how it’s supposed to be… so we were not impressed and ended up going elsewhere and paying for another one, because when you have a craving that won’t quit, YOU DON’T QUIT!

4 stars...

❕️This review is mostly about service❕️ Cafeteria style way of getting food is fine until it's packed, and people forget what a line is. I go to pay, and it takes two different registers to scan a QR code for a meal and 10 attempts for their reader to take a debit card. I bought a chocolate milkshake for 7.99. So I stand there while I watch 5 teen employees huddled over a single register while mine attempts to fill up a milk shake cup only to abandon it for 3 minutes come back then leave another 3 then come back to add whipped cream and then leave it there complete for 2 minutes before coming back to give it to me. In the time it took for him to make one milk shake, two not so gentlemen reached over the heavily guarded counter and stole a souvenir cup each. Very insane to watch. Mostly not cool about the young cashier treating my milkshake like a 10 minute break. He was chasing out up with his buddy's in the back and kinda just randomly touching parfiats. There's about 11 booths inside the rest of the seating is all outside. Just over staffed and everyone is unwilling to pick up the pace was...
