Patio Drive In in Blanding

I went there while on vacation. It's a cute little diner with friendly staff and a local vibe. Food is exactly what you would expect from a fast food small town diner, but they do add their own unique touches to the menu.

This restaurant was suggested to me by the owner of the hotel I stayed at. It had a small dining area but I was going to carry out. The prices were average but the hamburger was wonderful. It was busy when I was there but well worth the wait for the food and it was fun to see the stuff on the wall This small restaurant is wheelchair friendly although if it was busy, it would be a tight fit.

Best fries I ever had! Their burgers are very yammy. Stopped there on our way to Arches national park. This place is a must stop if you are in this area.

Amazing joint! Stopped by while passing through town. Everything we got was delicious! Service was awesome and friendly. Onion rings were to die for! Amazing chicken fingers too!! So glad we stopped! Worth it.

Great place, the first thing you see are two maps, one from the U.S. and one from the world, with pins that mark where the customers are from. I asked the special of the day for USD $5, a very tasty hamburger with real fries. Yo can't go wrong in this place, great service as well as staff. One curiosity, the have four bells, one for the 1/4 lbs. burgers, one for the chicken, and one for the 1/2 lbs., there is an additional one that says "happy", which is ringed when you order a finger food sized burger. Pretty neat!

This is a cool retro throwback the philly steak was great a nice change from fast food it was homemade and hot homemade onion rings not out of some bag. The price wasn’t bad for the food you get. if you’re in Blanding give it a try.

Omg!!! Burgers are awesome and fries as well. I recommend this place to anyone..

Great menu choices and the food is great. We have eaten here a dozen time while visiting the Blanding area this 2019 season. Probably my only complaint is I do not care for water or Ah juice soaked burgers. They need to be fresh of the grill. Then I would give them 5 Stars. Great spot! 👍😁

Fast friendly staff. Food was like the home cooking my mother did when l was growing up. Thanks for the memories

Great local ice cream shop and burger joint. Lots of food choices made fresh. Great food and service.

Ordered the Southwest chicken sandwich today. Was really saucy meaning the sauce ran onto the basket and fingers however the chicken was a bit stringy.

Friendly staff and a good menu selection, especially if you like milkshakes. We got chicken bacon salads and they were tasty. My only complaint and a reason I would not personally go back is everything was served in non-rycyclable styrofoam, including the salads (which were not ordered to go). This bothered me from an environmental standpoint.

Food was okay, my family and I weren't too thrilled. The price was pretty dang high when everything was totaled up, for four people. The only assumption I can make is that things were individually sold and a combo option wasn't available. The curly fries and milkshakes are the only things we really enjoyed.

Absolutely amazing!! Clean dining room and delicious food at a good price. Definitely coming back.

Awesome food, great service. A lovely little jewel in an unassuming town. I recommend the Swiss and jalapeno burger with any milkshake.

Only had a milk shake. It was ok but took very long time to make and appeared to be ice cream in a cup. Staff were friendly. Good location, lots of parking. Nice town. Love Utah.

Great small place to stop in for food. Staff was very friendly and helpful in deciding what to get for my first time there. I tried The Houston and got a mix of handcut and curly fries. It was amazing! Stop here on your way through.

Quality food. Pleasant service! Not fast food. My favorite a green chili cheese burger with a yummy Chocolate shake (great).

UPDATE... Shortly after posting this I was reach out to by the owner. They have made every attempt to make this right. That is a testament to the integrity of patio and its ownership. Thank you Lana!Got the chicken, guacamole sandwich. The chicken was paper thin and only covered 2/3 of the sandwich. $23 for a lettuce and bun sandwich. Good grief

A bit expensive but the burgers, grilled chicken, and shakes are pretty good. It is not fast food. Food is made to order. Would recommend over the local A&W if you can afford paying a bit more.

It cost a lot for my whole family to eat and not everyone felt they get enough to eat. It's cool local place and it gives local teenagers a place to work and locals to hangout at. I hope they do well and stay around for the future. Would go back if I'm ever in Blanding. Just a little more money that I would have liked to spend on dinner.

Haha I was just wondering if you were still interested in the job you have posted on the progress of the day and I will be there at the same time I don't know if I can help in any way I can get a ride to the office to see what the weather is going to be a little late to the party but I don't know if I can help in any of it but whatever I want to do is fine with me but I can help

Food was good, doesnt really taste like anything spectacular. Was a bit pricey but okay.

I love they make grill cheese... Yummy

The food was good. I especially like the onion rings. We were well cared for. My only gripe is that it took longer than expected for our order to arrive. Definitely among, if not the best restaurant in Blanding.

Better than expected for a small sandwich diner. Chicken sandwich was very good and the homemade fries too!

This place is amazing. The cheddar melt is to die for and the fries are excellent. If you find yourself in the area after visiting the national parks definitely drive out of the way to eat here. You won't be disappointed.

The food was good. The service was fast. They even accommodated a lettuce wrap request. 4 stars because it was cold that day and the building was not warm.

Delicious burgers and their onion rings are amazing.

Delicious food. The place was packed but the service was still great! We were the during the lunch hour rush, but were served in a timely manner. Rest rooms were clean. 5 stars!

I had the Swiss & What burger with mushrooms. Mmmmmmmm. So good. I’d love to come here again. Great service and delicious food!

Cute local burger joint recommended by air bnb host. Very tasty, great service. Wishing I was local so I could go back!

The food was SUPERB, the staff was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was fun. We asked each other trivia questions from Trivial Pursuit game cards that were available and listened to a couple of young men play the piano while we were there. We will definitely make this a planned stop the next time we travel through this area.

I have a reason to visit Blanding now. SO DELICIOUS.I'm so happy I decided to try this place out!

Shakes and salads were great!

Food is delicious and the service is amazing!

Descent food. A little run down but a really nice staff. The milkshakes were huge

Some of the best burgers I've ever had! Really good food! A+!!!

So scrumptious! And the service was pretty fast.

Stopped here passing through town and it was amazing! Got the crispy chicken and guac sandwich with curly fries. Cooked perfectly and everything tasted home-made! Finished dinner with a milkshake and it was delicious! Definitely a size to split! I wish I lived closer, I would be visiting all the time if I did!

This is a really enjoyable place to eat. They make good burgers, sandwiches and salads, if you can try it the waffle cookies too they are a fun treat. The shakes are top notch and the service is good too. They make to order so it takes a little more time, you can order online now though so that is mostly a non-issue. Restrooms are clean and the seating is reminiscent of an old school diner, again just a fun place to eat.

We were just passing through Blanding when we come across this neat little diner! Real tasty food with a friendly service. Decent prices and lovely clean restrooms! Thank you Lori & Chris!

Very satisfied with Philly steak💖 if u like cheese i would recommend asking for extra cheese😛

Such a fantastic burger joint! Especially after hiking in Grand Gulch. Shakes are a religious experience and the staff was so nice!!!!!

Clean facility, very very good food (must try the homemade onion rings). Lori provided excellent, friendly service with a smile and attitude of helping and welcoming. When I left she was playing the piano. Pretty good with that as well. :) Great dining experience. You need to put one of these in Vernal, UT. My family and I would eat there often.

Absolutely AMAZING! We went out of our way to have the pleasure of dining here again. The burgers are fantastic!!!! I truly wish this place could be everywhere we went :-)

Food is delicious and the employees are very friendly 😁

Loved the good, especially the homemade fries. They are amazing. I'm glad I tried this place.

The best hamburger I’ve eaten in a while. Everything is fresh and delicious with a friendly staff. You must stop here when visiting Canyonlands/Arches

Great food! Best shakes we've had in a long time. Met the owner, shes fabulous! We were traveling through Blanding and decided to drop in. So glad we did.
