Arrived with a party of nine. It was busy we ordered within 5 minutes of arriving and our food arrived in 10 minutes fresh and hot. The floats and milkshakes were great!!

We never drive past an A&W, and this one did not disappoint. We just ordered root beer floats, not food, though. Service was excellent and fast. The large is GINORMOUS (couldn’t finish the whole thing) so next time I think a medium will work. We’ll stop again for sure.

Only a handful of people there and there were 5 orders on the screen. You think they’d be able to get a double cheeseburger meal correct. Nope, 5 miles down the road I found out that I got a mushroom & Swiss.

After my dad and I either go to St. Cloud or the Twin Cities for the day, we always like heading back to A&W in Albany, MN on our way home for a bite to eat, especially getting two frosty mugs filled with root beer to go with our combo meals. That said, I still recall when the A&W in Albany used to be at Don’s I-94 gas station across the street and was glad to hear that was able to stay in the area (the closest A&W to us was the Osakis, MN A&W, but that permanently closed). Other than that, the good food, root beer, and hospitality sure keeps my dad and I going to this great restaurant.

Honestly the food was great but the service was awful. Not sure if everyone was just having a bad day, but nobody seemed to be very friendly and they all looked like they hated being there.

Really like how you guys cut through the entire hot dog bun on that Coney dog. Not a great way to contain the cheese, meat and onions. You’re right off the interstate how am I supposed to eat that on the road? This is such a caveman thing to do. There is now meat and cheese on my pants.

Horrible customer service, was given coupons for free floats with NO Expiration dates. Was told “Those are not the current color” coupons were thrown right in the trash. Considering the materials for the floats come in bulk and most likely cost you the least you would give the customer that when they are buying other foods. Rude rude rude. Paid it forward, when I left a bus pulled up, I directed them across the street telling them the A&W was out customer service and the air was not on.

Food was wrong, and didn’t notice till I was back on the freeway. Also for 3 cars in the drive through it took almost 20 minutes. Would have left and went somewhere else but a car pulled up behind me.
