Homer’s Drive Inn

This is not the Homers that ol’ Mac owned before he retired. His prices were reasonable and he oversaw it like a master sergeant. This place has raised it’s prices to the point it’s not economical to take your family there. The food is still good but not outstanding. Used to love to come in here and get an ice cream soda with my husband. Some of the reviews mentioned cigarette smoke. Smoking not allowed since it became State law. Homer’s does adhere to the law. Shout out to Susanne if she still works there – she’s such a nice person.

Good food.
Ordered a double cheeseburger and a single.
Both came with one patty. Went to the waitress to fix it and she said that’s the way they do it. Just smash two patties together for the double. It was a little thicker than the single but I think it should be separate so I know I’m getting my money worth. Still good food. Nice staff

I’m a fan of the ambience and old dives like this one. Breakfast is the best meal.

When you want to step back in time and enjoy really good diner food. They never disappoint.

The Homer Burger is delicious!!! It is cheaper to eat here than at a drive thru, cant beat it.

Hmm. Food tasted good but I’m still looking for the meat on my hamburger. Haha. Too expensive for what you get. Staff is friendly.

I really only go for Pie and ice cream. I have not explored the menu much beyond that. But really what is wrong with pie and ice cream??? Service is always good.

Absolutely delcicious, can’t go wrong here. Vanilla malt, double cheeseburger and fries were everything I could have hoped and more. Amazing. Classic.

Was craving diner type burgers so we tried out this place (this was a few months ago). The service was pretty good as the server was very nice and attentive. However, the food was just ok. In my opinion, the burger (I ordered the bacon burger) was small and tasted like something I can get at Wendy’s. Onion rings were tasty and crunchy but paid $ 3.49 for four pieces. My wife ordered the hot turkey sandwich. She said the turkey tasted like thick cold cuts and the gravy rated like it came from a jar. Bottom line: good service, ok food.

Homer’s Drive Inn has been around for many years. I think that over time, the quality of the food has decreased, but the prices have increased. It’s a fun place to stop and show people who are new to the area, as it is very unique and has a bit of history, but I rarely go otherwise. If the prices were lower I think I would go more often.

I really love this place — the quality of food is impressive and the staff is awesome.
I’ve had their hamburgers, onion rings, traditional malts and family style diners (21 piece shrimp is the best)…it’s all been really good. All the food has a very home-​cooked and delicious flavor.
I also commend the cook — he definitely has some skills. He always seems to cook the food perfectly, regardless of the size of the order.
The table wait staff are very friendly and do a great job at balancing the busy times so you never wait very long.
Homers has been in the area since the 1930’s … And I hope it be here for many years to come.

So I came here due to my fellow elite leaving reviews that were good, so I decided to give it a try.
I ordered the chicken sandwich with a chocolate sundae and my husband ordered the cheeseburger and fries and a shake (I forget the flavor). As a wife the first thing I went after was his food lol. The fries were good and the shake was a bit too icy for me. Wasn’t creamy at all, sorry wouldn’t order that at all. I tried to order my chicken sandwich protein style, when brought to the table some pieces were missing, or it doesn’t come with it. I had to ask for tomatoes and onions, basically toppings. The chicken itself was really good and had some flavor I would come back for.
My chocolate sundae was very messy but I loved every minute of it. Wasn’t anything spectacular like you would find at a Ghirardelli shop, but it served its purpose.
The second time I was going to come here to try the cheeseburger the doors were locked but the sign said open. I then went to Wendy’s and drove pass and seen people walking into the place! I was a bit upset but I’ll try again one day. Its usually not crowded at all. Nice place to get some homemade food and a place to chat at.

Amazing greasy spoon style food. I got the double cheeseburger and it was one of the best put together burgers I have had the luxury of shoving into my mouth. Also the onion rings were on point. Service was good without being over the top and fake. Overall a great classic diner experience.

Pretty good bacon cheeseburgers. A little less filling then i would like, but overall a good flavor. They use lighter buns, but I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the burger.

Any time I am in Leavenworth I enjoy riding to this place before or after a long ride. I always get the Homer’s Classic with everything on it, onion rings (which you can smell when you arrive), and a chocolate malt. Homer’s is one of my favorites in Leavenworth.

What a great little place. I didn’t have high hopes for this joint since it’s located in Leavenworth, which is not really known for their great food. I ordered a grilled chicken salad which tasted great! It was made with all fresh ingredients. The grilled chicken was lightly seasoned with some kind of sauce, it was so good & flavorful. I will definitely order this again. My husband ordered a country fried steak sandwich, I had a bite & I think it was the best fried steak sandwich I’ve ever tasted. It was juicy, moist & fresh! I sure did not expect such good food from a little place like this. The food makes up for the poor décor. Give it a try if your in the area, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

Yuuuuuuuummmmmmmm!
Get the Classic ½lb so you can enjoy the tasty seasoned grill in the meat patty’s. Trust me. Don’t waste your taste buds on the smaller ones. Splurge on the onion rings or fries covered in gravy… Yes gravy… This is not diet friendly it comfort food! Mmm
Need it to go? Stop right in front of the door and a sweet lady will come out to take your order!
Top 3 burgers in leavenworth in my book!

«Homer’s classic» (I think that’s what it’s called) is a great burger. It’s super juicy and flavorful. Reasonable pricing. Service was pretty slow and they didn’t check up on the customer very often. (this may have been due to it being lunch time) Definitely a new favorite place to grab a burger.

Great burgers. SLOOOOOW service.

Homer’s that last piece of Americana relic that hasn’t been wiped out by Applebee’s and Walmart and other symptoms of national crass commercialism. Of course you need to find it in a town like Leavenworth, where time seems to have stood still.
The place makes me feel I’ve stepped into a time machine and gone back to 1950s USA, when not everybody always had a therapist and people hated one another less. There are double and single booths, and they no doubt have to be red leathered. Tables are lacquered. So that’s good. Homer’s gets the thumbs up for nostalgia evocation.
The food is what you’d expect in a greasy spoon. Oily, basic, nothing gourmet but just fine. The fries were good to me, maybe I like them unsalted. I had the double burger both times I went there for lunch, it was average, not appalling but I’ve had better in BK.
There’s also milkshakes, floats, sodas, typical diner fare. The coffee was always good every time.
Unless there’s a menu I don’t know about, there isn’t really anything for breakfast. For the prices they charge, I don’t know what the complaint is about. I’ve paid more for worse meals.
