Food is great and decently priced. The drinks however are $4.45 a cup, so maybe bring a beverage or plan on sharing. Burger was great, halibut and chips had no complaints, and being Alaskan, I'm picky with halibut.

Wow! I wish I would have listened to the yelp reviews when ordering here. Definitely plan on sharing a burger with someone, even if you are starving! Me and my husband could have both shared a burger and fries and would have been enough! Portions are VERY large. Burger itself was delicious, and curly fries were fun. Peppermint milkshake was a fun flavor and would get again. Wait was long, but definitely worth it! I reccomend going through the drive through if the line is long inside and eating outside.

I think everyone knows about this place. A good size establishment near the Valley Mall. This indeed a burger place and they do have options including sub sandwiches. The milkshakes and sundaes are large as the burgers. Considering the volume of food they produce it is done pretty quick. The inside dining area is very large and there is an outside area with tables as well as a drive thru. The part that everyone might not know is there is a special area in back for coaches. If you are a coach you get a free meal for every 5 athletes. And i mean, meal. Coaches get drinks, milkshakes, any items on the menu and even sundaes. The staff also brings baskets of a fries, curly fries and tots as an appetizer. The staff continously takes the coaches during the meal for any refills. If you are a coach, this is a place to visit.

Miner's Drive-In in Yakima, Washington, is nothing short of mind-blowing! This isn't just a restaurant--it's a food pilgrimage, an epic journey for your taste buds! From the second your car rolls into that iconic parking lot, you know something extraordinary is about to happen. Your life is about to be divided into two eras: before Miner's and after Miner's. The burgers? Oh my GOODNESS! They're not just big--they're colossal, juicy masterpieces that are grilled to absolute perfection. Every bite is an explosion of flavor that will leave you wondering if Miner's has discovered the secret to burger nirvana. Forget about finding anything else like this--these burgers stand alone at the top of the food chain, unmatched and unbelievable. Now let's dive into the fries: crispy, golden, and so delicious that they'll probably ruin all other fries for you. Paired with those massive burgers, they're the ultimate sidekick. And then there are the milkshakes. Don't even get me started--thick, creamy, overflowing with flavor--each one is a dessert dream come true. There is an actual slice of pumpkin pie in the pumpkin pie milkshake!!They're practically a meal all on their own, but you won't be able to resist ordering one (or two!). The food was beyond Michelin star quality--every bite felt like pure gourmet perfection! After indulging in a meal here, you'll be so satisfied, you won't even think about eating for the rest of the day. It's that incredible!

What a burger! Great BIG burger at Miners! They had the best onion rings I've ever had as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal! Loved the picnic tables outside as well - what a treat to truly picnic! This is a Yakima area institution so it's not to miss! Don't forget to have a milkshake!

An Oasis in the mall parking lot. I stopped off on a road trip back to Seattle. This is a true piece of classic Americana along the road. The food is massive, the burger was the size of my head and the sundae could easily feed a family. They have tons of seating, a really nice outdoor green area with grass and trees and picnic tables. There is an arcade inside for kids. The drive thru was super fast but the outdoor area was so charming we had to stop and eat there. Everyone was very friendly and everything was very clean. In the shadow of the mall and the desert it was a true oasis and I will definitely be stopping in anytime I'm headed through.

Similar to Mikes Drive in. Been around in Yakima since 1948! Huge array of burgers the size of your hand (HUGE, my husband and I could've split 1 burger), fries, shakes, salads, sandwiches, etc. I got the original big burger, he got the double burger, we both couldn't finish ours. We also got a small fries which was equivalent to a large fries from mcDs. And we each got shakes. About $40, but worth the portions!! Inside is huge and well organized, lots of seating, and outside has a beautiful grass outdoor eating area. Large line inside so this place must be the spot when driving thru Yakima. Will definitely be coming back!!

It's been 10+ years since I've been to Miner's, and as luck and necessity would have it, I found myself coming along Hwy 82 at lunchtime! So we stopped! My partner hadn't had the pleasure of a Big Miner's, so I ordered for us. Big Miner's with cheese, onion rings to share, and a couple if fresh strawberry shakes. So, Freaking.Good. All of it...even the fry sauce! Loved it. Try it! You really must.

What a place! We visited twice during our overnight in Yakima. A bit pricey for fast food, but you get your monies worth here; just make sure you're hungry. My partner proclaimed their Chicken Cobb Salad Sandwich to be in his Top 5 Chicken Sandwiches he's ever had. Loved it so much he got it again in the second visit. Their burger and curly fries are MASSIVE! Wish we had room for their shakes. Really cool historic photos and native beadwork on display. Plenty of seating, a bunch of dipping sauces to choose from, and multiple fountain drink machines. The prices are my only complaint. Our first visit was $19 and it only consisted of a sandwich and small fountain drink!! The second visit was a sandwich, cheeseburger and curly fries for $31.
