Great value. Had a cheeseburger, fries and Mt. Dew, $6.50. Burger was good and the crinkle cut fries were nice and salty. Enjoyable experience.

Atmosphere is perfect if you like things as they were in the good old days ... no car hops, just step up and order. For the last 50+ years.

this place was recommended to us for having great food. I was so disappointed with the food we had a fish sandwich and a double cheeseburger. they were both flavorless. we also had onion rings and mushrooms, thank goodness, because then we had something with flavor to eat.
I usually do not complain about food, but I was really disappointed with this food.
if I had to compare the taste, I would say their burger patties are the equivalent taste to a bland McDonald's

An excellent establishment to grab a bite to eat.
Everything is fresh made to order, the staff is extremely friendly and the new owners are wonderful. Classic American drive in. Definitely make this a stop if you're in the area.

Rudest people I've met in a long time. 1st in line and I waited so long to be waited on I just told them I'm leaving..I got the whatever treatment. Try to support local businesses. Oh well the foods better across the street at rose garden anyway. I can turn left as well as right.

Awesome place! Won't find food anywhere cheaper! Properly priced food for a drive-in, they do it right! Food isn't five star cuisine but it tastes amazing with the price you pay! Quickly prepared orders, very affordable, great tasting food! What more could you ask for! CASH ONLY!

You absolutely CANNOT beat the prices. It's super affordable. There's typically only one person that will come up to take orders. You then receive a number, and wait until it is called to go grab your food/pay. It's usually about 10 minutes or so, for a wait. Picnic tables are setup around the building for seating. Food is pretty good, especially for the price. I would definitely recommend.

Great drive inn. Order food and wait all orders are made in order and you can't beat the prices. A burger starts at a dollar and I would guess its a 1/10th lb patty. All the food is made when ordered and doesn't sit in a warmer. In my opinion I would rather eat here than any other fast food joint in town. Still running the same as years ago.

The lady that took my order was hands down the rudest food worker I’ve ever encountered in my life. She barked at me to move when I was waiting in line to order. She ignored me I asked for fries. She also raised her finger to me and yelled that she had other orders to fill (there was no one else in line). She got my order wrong as I was given the incorrect food items. I didn’t bother going back to tell her out of concern how she would respond. Extraordinarily rude. I wouldn’t go back there if I was starving.

Food was good. Cash only. The person taking orders was friendly, though it did take a while for the order to be ready. Overall, it was a good place to grab lunch.

Make sure to get there a half hour before they close or they just tell you they are closed. No wonder why it's for sale.
**EDIT** after the response from the owner of this business my mind is blown. Just to put in context I arrived at least 15-20 mins before closing as there was 3 groups still waiting for their food.

Food is pretty good, price is amazing but the wait time and attitude of the worker is pretty unreasonable. Should not have to wait 30+ minutes for literally just a cheeseburger and fries. And then receive attitude from the worker when it takes you more than 5 seconds to get up to the window after being called. The hut has always been good up until the last year or so. They should just close down if they don’t wanna work full time hours and can’t cook a burger in under 30 minutes.

The Hut is amazing! Cash only but there's an ATM across the street in the gas station. Order at the window and they call your number when it's done. Low cost yummy food!

My daughter asks to go to "The Hunt" every time we pass by. Shakes, burgers, cheese curds and fries are our go to when we're having a fun day out. Burgers look small but are filling, make sure to tell them your toppings or it'll be plain.

Onion rings and mushrooms are also very good!

You can get a side of ranch for a small price.

The provide picnic tables to sit outside and eat. Pretty busy around lunch time and when kids get out of school.

*Buffalo burger is a bison burger, nothing to do with buffalo sauce! 😂

I wish I could’ve taken pictures of that delicious food. This has got to be the best restaurant in the United States of America. They serve the best food. It’s delicious. It’s so yummy in the tummy. It’s not funny. They need to make more restaurants like it. It’s very very cheap. It’s like two dollars for a sloppy Joe but the sloppy Joe is delicious. Trust me you will travel 2 Hours away from here and I will still travel to this place to eat again I give this 10 thumbs up

It's been years since my wife and I have stopped by The Hut for lunch, but we use to frequent the place a couple of times each summer.

After placing our order, we sat back and watched people pull into the parking lot and place their orders. One after the other people kept pulling in.

We ate (tried to eat) at one of the dirty picnic tables alongside the building, but when order numbers were called, screamed is more like it, over the loud speaker, the deafening sound jolted your whole body.

The Hut's food quality has taken a huge turn for the worst. This place was never known for the size of burger or the amount of food you received, but it use to be really inexpensive.

These days you are met at the walk-up window with the same unwelcoming faces, served sub par food, for way more than it's worth. For the life of me, I can't figure out what draws people to this place anymore.

We won't be back.!

Love their food. The burgers are excellent, the deep fried food has the perfect coating, freshness of the product and is cooked in fresh oil. It's cool to stop in in warmer weather, eat at their picnic tables and watch the world go by on Churchill Street. They are small & take window orders, There is no dining-in area. Which, with Covid precautions, is perfect!

Been eating here for a while and let me give you an HONEST review and not be biased because obviously the 5 star rating that it currently holds are reviews from mostly friends and family. I give this place 3 stars based on fair pricing and slow but friendly servers. Ok,so... the grease should be changed more often
The food is extremely bland. Like,no matter what I order, it all taste pretty bland. I'd also like to know if everything is fried in the same greasy, I suspect so, but I could be wrong. They should update their menu and at least sprinkle some seasoning on their burgers. The best sandwich they have is the ham&cheese and that's probably because the pork makes it's own slat seasoning as it cooks. The Hut isn't the worst place to eat in paca and definitely wouldn't be my 1st choice. Want a real burger,head on over to Culver's. And no I dont work at culvers. This is an honest opinion. Hope it helps anyone that hasn't had the hut yet or any passer byers that are looking for a bite to eat at a local joint.

Sorry for any typos.
