Snowhite Drive In

If you are in the mood for a burger and fries, and perhaps even a pineapple milkshake, then Snowhite Drive-in is your spot. The family staff are always attentive and friendly. The food is made to order and delicious (I highly recommend the bacon cheeseburger). And should the mood strike you, Lodi Lake is right across the street. Enjoy your food is a park atmosphere, right by the water.

The prices are fair and the food (especially the fries) is delicious! I've only had one disappointing milkshake but every other time was sweet and satisfying. The couple who own the place are the sweetest, most warm-hearted people.

absolutely love this place, consider me a new regular. The prices are fair and the food is even better. perfect burger and fries and great customer service.

Had a super burger, chicken strips, fries and a drink. 👌 burger was great! Daughter loved the chicken strips, fries were nice and fresh. It’s a cool spot I’ve driven by so many time but have never ate here. Worth checking out.

I've been coming here for a few years and it seems to never change but get better and more to choose from. I absolutely love their burgers I know it's what they are mainly known for but if you get time to stop make that stop get yourself a Pastrami or Chicken breast oh my God and their tacos are unheard of! Greatest flavors of shakes too can't ever make up my mind you have to see for yourself and I can't forget to mention it is right across the street from Lodi Lake so you can sit across a nice view or take your food across the street a nice little getaway.

Nostalgic place for me as my mother in law worked there 55 years ago. If you are looking for good simple eats, this is the place to go. Service was as good as it could be from behind a window. Atmosphere is nostalgic.

Nice mom 'n pop burger joint located just across from the main entrance. Standard burger point with several specialty burgers thrown. For the same price as a major fast food franchise meal offering, you get more and better fries and a *much* better burger. They also serve the crushed ice my wife prefers with their soft drinks. No seating for now. Take out only.

Very large tasty cheese burger, fries, and chocolate shake. Everything was delicious, though the oil for fries needed to be changed. Otherwise, it was one of the best burgers in town.

Surprisingly yummy burger. I had the Junior combo with no onions. It was plenty of burger even though it was the smaller one. The fries were perfectly seasoned & cooked. I highly recommend these burgers!

Love old burger joints. Great food and awesome shakes!

We only got ice creams and they were delicious! My 4 year old almost ate an entire cone. Thank goodness he didn't..it was a lot of ice cream!

I love Sno White drive in, the atmosphere is great if you like outdoor dining and it's a great place to stop in on your lunch break or if your hanging out at Lodi Lake and don't want to put all that energy into bbq'ing 😉then just hop across the street for great tacos, burgers, fries, and even a veggie burger, for us non meat eaters. Oh and btw, they have the best frostie's!

I was transported back to my childhood!! I ordered the double cheeseburger and it was HUGE!! The fries were crispy and hot! So delicious. The meat was cooked perfectly with all the fixings, tomatoe, lettuce, onions and pickles. I asked for the Snow White sauce and it was better than In n Outs sauce. You have to go try this place if you are looking for a delicious hamburger!! Oh and we ordered chicken strips that were cooked perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. They were really big pieces of chicken too!! We couldn't even finish our meal! I didn't show the picture of the strawberry milkshake that was beyond good. It was creamy and tasty. It was just the right amount of sweetness and strawberries. They even used real strawberries. Come with an empty stomach and leave satisfied!!

Great tasting good old American style cheese burger! What's not to love? Fresh tasting veggies tasty, beef patty with golden brown fries.

Wow. Sno3White Drive In is an absolute precious gem! My family and I just moved into town, and we love supporting local businesses. The Bacon Cheeseburger was a delicious 1/2 pound of meat and cheese that wouldbmake a vegetarians mouth water. The mozzarella sticks were cooked to perfection, not including the zucchini sticks and onion rings! This family owned restaurant will be one we come back to again.

Protip: order your sundae/ice cream first so you can eat it while you wait for your food. Sometimes you just gotta eat dessert first. The menu is pretty great here. I appreciate that they have a pastrami sandwich and a pastrami burger, because sometimes you do just want a sandwich, and other times only a burger will satisfy the lust for sustenance. Get the onion rings, they're quite proper for drive-in rings, as are the curly fries. It's perfect after a day kayaking at the lake. They also have some great looking tacos. The beauty of the menu is there really is something for (almost) everyone. Fish, veggie burgers, blt, burritos, tacos, sides, all the hits, none of the fluff. Just good, classic drive-in food. The location is great, and that, along with the straight forward menu and lack of drive-thru actually makes me prefer Snowhite to the other similar options in town. They're open 10-8, Sunday through Saturday.

Courtney made me a delicious burger and fries on my lunch! Very good food and great customer service!

I'VE BEEN GOING THERE SINCE I WAS A KID, I'M IN.\NMY SIXTIES NOW, FOOD STILL GREAT FANTASTIC HAMBURGERS, PEOPLE ARE FRIENDLY AND FAST.

Tasty and lot of food for the price, and you can go across the street and chill by the lake after

It’s embarrassing to say that I have been to Lodi far enough that I have never tried this family owned restaurant. After a long day spending time at the park, my husband and I tried out this restaurant. It’s safe to say that we are definitely coming back! The service was great, and they were nice enough to offer the water bottle on the house for a mix up on our order. My husband ordered the chicken breast burger with lettuce wrapped, and he reported back saying that this was the best chicken breast burger he’s tried in a long time! I ordered the cheeseburger combo, and I was very happy with the fries and the burger was a 10/10! Definitely give this place a try! 👍

Courtney was super duper sweet and caring. ❤️ Our food was absolutely delicious and fresh and that burger was AMAAAAAZING, we'll be back soon! 😮‍💨😋😋

Fantastic! Fries were great, cheeseburger was amazing and hot dog was the best I've ever had!

Delicious cheese burgers, fresh ingredients and great location across the street from Lodi lake. Definitely recommend if you are craving good burgers 🍔 😋

I suggest you stop by if you see the brown truck and Courtney the owner cooking because it’s one of the best hamburgers I’ve had in my life.

First time eating here I had lunch there the food was really good I would definitely go back and the workers were very friendly

Not bad! The sauce on the burger didn’t do much for me but the beef was good. And really filling. The fries came hot and crispy!

Tried this spot today , and I must say it is very good 👍 if you like old fashioned style burgers then this is the place to go! The meat is good quality, juicy and well seasoned. The toppings were fresh and tasty . Their special sauce compliments the burger quite well. My only suggestion would be to offer your burgers with a premium bun As I think this was the only thing lacking, the bun they serve is adequate and in no way bad . I just think a more premium type of bun would elevate their product to the next level. Thank you for a delicious lunch!

Haven't been there in 20+ years. Good to see the menu has most of original items. Had my old favorite pastrami, but was shocked they put lettuce and tomato on it. Always thought pickles and mustard (sometimes a little onion) was only way to have it. Tried the fried green beans, and they were slightly overcooked which kills the flavor. Onion rings were ideal! Otherwise- food was good.

Burgers were good. Asked for no onions. Got lots of onions. Ordered pastrami on a roll. I've worked in a sub restaurant before. Could tell sub roll was taken out of freezer and left out to defrost. Not fresh. One end of roll was wet from defrost. Looked like old bread not fresh. Pastrami was very shredded. Was hungry so ate half of sub.

Food was just okay. Wanted milk shake first the rude b*tch said they were out i said how can you be out she rolled her eyes and rudely said i don't care they shut the machine off. Who is they and are you just a lazy rude lady who hates customers? No Ortega peppers so couldn't have the burger i actually wanted again she snapped at me when I said oh thats too bad. Attitude attitude attitude! They use to be friendly I said years ago i would never go back because they burnt my order twice. Well if they don't start treating the customers nicer they will be out of business and with people working there like that maybe they should shut down.

We waited in line for 15 minutes to order, multiple people were waiting for a while and had to ask several times for their food. It was not in order. After we ordered it took about 40 minutes for it to come out. The burger was just okay, definitely frozen patties. Don’t recommend at all. It’s a vintage burger stand so the aesthetic is cool. that’s about it.

I'm leaving this review because the milkshakes were good. But the hamburger meat tasted old! dry and hard buns... fries Super dark brown ( oil diffently needs cleaning) and onion rings overly greasy... I live less than 6 minutes away and the food was cold. This is the worst place ever for local food. Threw it straight in the trash after 1 bite! WILL NEVER RETURN

I used to love dining at Snowhite Drive In back in the days. It was my go-to spot for delicious meals and friendly family service in Lodi. The atmosphere was always welcoming, and the counter staff went out of their way to make every visit special. Unfortunately, my recent experience was a far cry from those fond memories. The food quality has significantly declined, with their burgers was soggy and the meat tasted old. The service was also disappointing; the staff seemed disinterested and inattentive, making the entire experience feel lackluster. I went to Snowhite Drive In with my kids this prior Sunday. I ordered three cheeseburgers and two without vegetables, two junior burgers, and fries. They somehow managed to keep the vegetables in the burgers but did not put cheese in two of the burgers. The young girl that worked there said they don't have anymore junior burger buns, so they decided to use the regular burger buns for the junior burgers, which look like big, very large buns with small patties. She did not tell me this until our food was ready. The burger was soggy and the meat tasted strange. They also put so much mayonnaise to compensate for their lack of ketchup. I had also asked for two cups of ice and lids. With the issue that already had, the young girl, while chewing her gum, asked, "You got a dollar?" I looked at her and said yes and handed her one dollar. I was not sure what she asked for, but she took it and put it to the side. It’s disheartening to see a place that once held such a special place in my heart deteriorate in this way. I hope they can find a way to bring back the magic that made them great in the past. I will no longer be coming back to the Lodi Snowhite Drive-In at the Lodi location.

Came here and ordered food for my 5 year old daughter and me after years of not coming here since my childhood days. Not sure if they have changed ownership or what really went on today. 🤔🤷 The food and the service used to be really great here before. This is to be like a original Old School Lodi staple to get a great classic style burger. Today i ordered and six peoples food was served before ours. (really got that your kind is not welcomed here vibe) but that's another story and definitely no need to go there. The menu is now very limited and over priced for what now is equivalent to gas station am/pm style food. 😢 It really makes me sad to leave this review on this place that I really used to love as a child, but I most definitely won't be coming back here. #WhatHappened #WhatAShame #Fail #PlaceFellOff Definitely would no longer recommend this place.

The burger was so beyond bland, idk what frozen patty mystery meat they use but eww. Not the food I remember growing up at all. My cheese wasn’t melted, the burger was not hot there was no flavor except the pickles, definitely will NEVER eat there again. Do not recommend at all

Ordered some shakes that clearly had spoiled ingredients, both my wife and I recognized the taste of sour dairy immediately. The cook tasted it and said "I don't taste anything, unless I'm dead inside”. I found both workers unapologetic and lacking in professionalism.

My wife ordered and paid (one person ahead of her) and 15 minutes later they told her that they had no tomatoes for our BLT's. She accepted that it'd just be lettuce and bacon, but she brought this home. One soggy piece of lettuce. Super disappointed. Maybe we'll give it a while before coming back. The curly fries and mozzarella sticks were hella good though. 8-1-23

Soggy zucchini sticks not crispy what so ever. Skinny over cooked fries, ranch taste like straight Mayo! I worked here when I was 18 (few moons ago) and this would have been unacceptable to serve when Dan owned it. Fries use to be large cut fries and crispy where u were able to dip in your shake and it would not bend . Overpriced for the quality of food they serve her now only item that came out ok was the shake. Yes I said ok. Snowhite has ran down and I will no longer spend my money here. It's a shame that this place has went so down hill. Service sucked by the way if your over 40 and work here then you should know what kind of food your sending out . Just saying.

I was headed to Foster Freeze on Ham and to my disappointment it was closed so I decided to give Snow White a chance and it left me feeling like I should have just gone straight home instead. Food was highly overpriced for the quality. Ordered mozzarella sticks and they were literally inedible, worse I had ever tried in my life. Soggy and cheese not even melted. They threw ranch in my bag and it opened and spilled all over the rest of my food. Burger had a weird flavor. Only thing that was ok were the fries but not anything special. Will not be going back.

WORST EVER!!! Not like how it used to be. Customer service was sooo poor. The lady with tattoos on her face couldn’t even focus on taking our order. She must’ve been on something cuz she kept having us repeat our order and while writing it down, her face was also going down towards the pen and paper pad. Then she tells us the guy will be cooking our burgers. After 5-7 mins of trying to place the order, we paid cash. While waiting, the guy was outside weirdly trimming a bush with nothing getting trimmed for about 20-25 mins. His pant was all soaked on this warm sunny day. Waited 45 mins, the food never came. It’s getting close to closing time and we notice the lights getting turned off. So we asked about our food. Guess they never made it, but took our money. We asked for our refund, the lady’s saying we paid card so she have to put it on the card. We had a dispute about us paying cash and the customer before us paying card. She pulled up transaction and sure enough, we paid cash. Gave us our refund and will never see us again.
