This place is a local staple. I’ve been going here since I was in high school! We just moved back to town, and my husband is not from around here, so I was so excited to show him one of my favorite local spots! We were very bummed the ice cream machine wasn’t fully working when we went by. They only had chocolate shakes, which worked for me because it’s my absolute favorite but my husband only likes vanilla so I guess we will just have to go back soon so he can get the full experience 🙂 the burgers were just as amazing as I remember and the onion rings were PERFECT!!! I can not recommend this place enough if you’re craving a classic burger and shake 🙂

I have been going here since I was a kid. One of my family’s favorite places to eat! It takes a little while for your food to get ready so be prepared for that. It’s made fresh and they stay busy. But, I promise it is worth it! There are fun games outside for you and your kids to play while waiting. There are picnic tables for you to sit on while eating if you would like. If you don’t plan on eating there then I would suggest calling in your order ahead of time to give them time to get it ready. This will help cut down your wait time. The employees are always very friendly. The food is always hot and fresh. The cheeseburger basket and cajun fries is our favorite meal. You also need to try the fried pies! Yum!

Cute lawn games. But the positives end there. My husband and I decided to stop by here on the way out of town on our Harley. Both of us have been here on different occasions a long time ago and wanted to try it again. We ordered spicy barbecue nachos, a barbecue sandwich, fries, and a chocolate shake. The girl at the window had literally no personality – I asked her if the nachos had onions and she said no. When the girl asked what kind of car we were in we told her we were on a Harley and that we would be sitting at the tables (so it should be obvious we were going to eat there and not take the food with us on a motorcycle). After maybe 15 minutes or so, they called my husband’s name to which he promptly went to go get our order, and the guy handed him the food, said have a good night and rudely slammed the door in his face. He was not asked if we needed any kind of condiments or anything else. When he brought the food to the tables, I opened my nachos to find them covered in onions. They did not give him a straw for the chocolate shake so he went back to get one – it took 10 minutes or more for them to give him a straw. They also gave us no utensils of any kind, ketchup, salt or napkins. By that time I had started trying to pick off my onions and eat my nachos I then discover they had not given us any napkins either. I had cheese and barbecue sauce all over my hands from picking off the onions that we’re not supposed to be there in the first place. Who does not give napkins when someone is eating barbecue which is obviously messy?? After it taking 10 minutes for him to get a straw I sure wasn’t going to send him back or go myself to get napkins so I just wiped my hands on the paper bag they had given us. Despite the nachos having onions on them they had almost no taste at all. The fries had no salt on them and again we did not want to go up to ask and have to wait forever for salt either. After we finished our bland food we threw our trash away and left. We had to stop at a gas station so I could wash my hands before we left out of town. So in summary, bland food, no utensils, no napkins, no salt, no ketchup, rude employees, incorrect order but yard games were cute. We will not be back again!

I saw this little hole-in-the-wall spot on the map and had to check it out. I just had a cheeseburger and fries. The fries were ok but definitely needed either salt or ketchup. The burger was tasty but needed a more seasoned patty. The service is fine and they call out your name and car type when the food’s ready. I’m just not sure if I’d return cuz it’s quite pricey for what you get. If I’m in the area again I may stop by and try a double cheeseburger because I think you need that extra patty and cheese to bring out some flavor.

OMG!!! Salem Dairy Bar is such a gem to have in this town! The employees are all mostly young, hard working students who do a phenomenal job!! They are quick, nice, and help all customers with grace. I’ve seen people get pretty rude and the front girls/guys just smile and continue helping. If you’ve never tried Salem Dairy Bar, then GO! Do it now! You can also get an Arkansas Dairy Bar book and they will sign/stamp it at any location that is in it. I recommend a Burger, Seasoned Cheese Fries, plus a Banana Shake with Caramel. Watch their Facebook page for any daily specials!!

Dairy bars are a part of my childhood but unfortunately hard to find. Salem Dairybar is just as amazing as the ones I remember. Great service, fantastic food and lots of outdoor games for kids to play while they wait. Can’t wait to come back!

The double cheeseburger was good, except the bottom bun dissolved within minutes. Fries were hot. Only downside was the price.$$$
