Big R's catered my recent wedding and I have absolutely nothing but positive things to say about them! They were easy to work with, showed up on time, and most importantly the food was delicious. Everyone was RAVING about the brisket and smoked mac & cheese. I would highly recommend them to anyone whether it be for a quick bite OR catering, they are great!

Excellent little joint in Farwell. We tried the BBQ platter and all the meats were tender and well seasoned. The sides were fantastic, the Mac and cheese was creamy and the onion rings were so good! We also got to try their wonton tacos which were my favorite, such a unique and delicious item. Next time I'm back, I want to try their hot dogs. Really went out of their way to make the experience good. 10/10

This drive-in had it all. The server was at our vehicle in about as much time as I would expect if I had been in an inside place. The chocolate shake was perfect. It was not too thick or thin, it was exactly right. It was chocolate enough to satisfy Willy Wonka. The hot dogs were Koegle's brand and served on what seemed to be fresh made buns. The cole slaw was like my ancestors passed down. The atmosphere was so cool. They can place the tray for your food on your vehicle window, or you can dine on the picnic tables they have under shaded canopies.

Started off with a phone call. So polite. Asked a few clarifying questions about cash, card ect. Answers were spot on. Location is great! A short car ride from the house and I was there. Confused was I so I got out and ordered from window. Hostess was genuinely happy and funny! Food came quickly and tasted oh so delicious! Today's choice was beer brats and Mac! Brat was juicy and delicious. Mac was plentiful and delightfully tasty! I finished both without room in stomach to enjoy anything else! My son ordered his burger and he said it was fresh off the grill delicious! Hostess asked if we were all finished and ring up the check! Prices are awesome! Staff, chef, crew, hostess were all amazing! Cars filled each spot and benches were occupied as well! Shade provides a great breeze. Optional to have a window plate ready to hold your order! Great Job Big R’s. I might be a frequent flyer!

The coney dogs are delicious and the buns were so soft and perfectly grilled. The club sandwich was great and very generous portions. The pulled pork wasn't my favorite. I love a drive in so I'll definitely be back. The service was amazing.

We showed up like 10 minutes before closing. BUT the waitress was really nice and made sure we had everything we needed. We stayed in the car and they brought the menus to us, which we loved. We got BLT,burger, root beer float, strawberry shake. It was super fast and our food was super good. Definitely coming back. Hotter than a meth pipe on pay day!

We got there pretty close to closing time, yet they gave us great service and we were able to enjoy our meal without feeling rushed to leave. We had coney dogs, grilled cheese brisket, Mac n cheese and grilled cheese pulled pork. Everything was delicious! The owner came out and asked our boys to come get icecream. She sat down with us and chatted as we finished up. The waitress was nice and attentive as well. Only regret was not having time to visit again before we left the area.
