Crazy Eric's Drive-In — Restaurant in Washington

Crazy Eric's is A-OK in my book. I've been here a few times over the last couple of years and it's taken me a long time to decide on what I wanted to rate this place. I wanted this to become one of my favorite places, but alas, it's just OK.

That being said, there are a lot of things I really like about this place and some things I just don't like. The dislikes bring me down to 3 stars and I will explain. I'll start with the bad. I consistently order the bag of 6 cheeseburgers, and they consistently bum me out. The buns are always stale and the meat patty is almost as comical as the old Wendy's "where's the beef?" add campaign. The cheese and toppings aren't all that great either and don't help at all when you're trying to choke down the dry stale bun. The reason this dislike brings me down to 3 stars, is because if they can't get a cheeseburger right, as a drive-in, there has to be some extra weight to the score. Perhaps some people prefer it this way, maybe some kind of nostalgia, but to me, it's just not pleasant. The other dislike is the cash only thing, it makes it really inconvenient for me to come here more often and grab a cheap meal. It's just not easy to get cash these days.

The corn dogs are the bright spot at Crazy Eric's. I dream about these corn dogs. Getting the six pack for the price is such a great deal. These are the exact opposite of the cheeseburgers. The dogs are very plump and the breading is really sweet and crunchy. A little squirt of mustard and I'm in corn dog heaven. The onion rings are also quite delicious. Super crispy with the perfect amount of batter to onion. The french fries aren't too shabby either, but my go to favorites are most certainly the corn dogs and onion rings. I like them so much, I actually find myself wondering if I'm willing to share some of the 6 with my lady and our son. Luckily, if you're a monster like me and are so inclined, the price is so good, you can get yourself a sixer of corn dogs, and another sixer for the family to fight over!

I'm not sure why some reviews elude to the employees there being impatient about customers reading the menu before ordering. I've never experienced that, and I can only assume perhaps those people were holding up a huge lunch line or something, which probably annoyed everyone there, not just the employees. The guys always greet me with a smile and always send me off with "have a great day!"

It is basically just a parking lot, so don't expect to be eating there unless you want to eat in your car. There are no dedicated spots and appears to be no rhyme or reason to how and where people park when they pull in. I think whoever pulls in first kind of dictates how the rest goes, so be prepared to get creative where you can stick your car, or just park in on the street.

My final love about this place is the Christmas trees. We bought our tree there last year for super cheap. Our house is typical Bremerton small, so we have no need for a huge tree, nor do we have room to be storing a fake tree box 11 months a year, so the little cheap trees Eric's offers are perfect. They even give you twine to wrap the tree to the roof of your car. We've decided to even make it a family tradition to go here every year for our tree. Sounds odd, but I like quirky things like that. Imagine telling the grandchildren stories of corn dogs, onion rings and Christmas trees. ...

All I can say is NO! I’m sure perhaps at one time it might have been good. I’m rather new to the Bremerton area and had gone past this place a few times, so had it on my list of try for a short while. Perhaps people go for the milkshakes which I did not try.

I did try the Canadian bacon burger, I think they call it and ordered a plain cheeseburger for the kiddo and an order of the onion rings and garlic parm fries which I could only get 2 fries down as well as choked one onion ring down.

Now if you’re into cheap food and you can see by the bun in the photo the quality of the food. If you’re into cheap, low quality, almost flavorless food with low grade ingredients, go give this place a try! If by chance you’re into giant breaded grease, super greasy dipped battered and flavorless onion rings, go and try them! As for the fries, absolutely no flavor and so bland though it was supposed to be garlic Parmesan. Fries now if I can guess are premade and dipped in oil to warm because they were dry and stale. No flavor at all. Burgers, definitely not much better.

It is cheap and we tipped $5. I was hoping it would be one of them old school, just greasy food dive burger places, old school it is but the food is just sad and gross!

Sad to say it but...

I cannot believe what happened to me here! I ordered a fair, trail, bacon burger, Bigfoot, bad boy, chicken sandwich (all three types), double, deluxe, chicken fried steak, truck stop, 6 cheeseburgers, 6 hotdogs, 6 tortilla dogs, 6 corn dogs, a polish, the garlic Parmesan fries, the nacho fries, the home fry, the fishwich, the breakfast on a bun, the humdinger, the vanilla shake, the chocolate shake, the strawberry shake, the Oreo shake, the caramel shake, the peanut butter shake, the banana shake, the Harvey shake, the Marionberry shake, and the iced coffee. While I was ordering a tall skinny cutie took my order and I almost reached my limit 😍. Then, I got my food and there was cheese on one of the burgers that I didn’t want cheese on! Are they trying to kill me!?!?! I am allergic to cheese. Anyway, the food was pretty good. Kinda mid tho ngl. Would rather eat at the restaurant that is on the ratatouille movie. That cutie was really hot tho. If I could I would...
