Reid's Lockport Reviews
Food is delicious and their service is great.
Friday afternoon, 72 degrees and breezy, sitting at a picnic table under the swaying shade of the trees around me, eating an old fashioned hotdog with a lemonade while other folks had a picnic around me. It's probably the only time I ever wanted my 15 minutes at an eatery to stretch into hours. Thanks Reids; your basic approach to food made me have a little time out that I desperately needed.
It's the middle of winter ❄️🥶 so the atmosphere is not the greatest anywhere in WNY but the employees seemed like they were having fun and friendly, I was pretty shocked when she told me the price for what me and my grandson ordered!! It was far from what I was expecting!! It was a good amount of food that didn't cost as much as I was expecting!! And it was delicious!! Great place to stop and not ask if you can have a credit application for a fast meal!!!
First about the burgers they are so good. Second of all the french fries taste like real potatoes! Go to reids today I recommend it
Every time I go, it is a great experience. The staff are great and get your order out promptly. The food is always on par.
Love the White hot and the Red hot. Amazing flavors that you don't often get. Plenty of other great things on the menu and ice cream for dessert. There are plenty of picnic tables and some indoor seating too.
Reid's is a classic roadside hots stand that has been around for over 75 years. When I say roadside, I mean that literally. You are standing on the sidewalk when you order. The prices are very very reasonable and the quality is great. It's close proximity to the Erie Canal trail makes it a perfect stop on a long bike ride.
Oh, my, god. The classic walk up and order burger and shake shack is such a welcoming atmosphere, the food turn around time was incredibly quick and I have to say they have the best bang for your buck cheese burgers you'll ever find.
My goodness. I used to drive by after eating lunch on the way through over the last 15 years seeing the lineups of people and thought I need to eat here. Why did I just eat chain fast food. So I finally came and made a point of visiting. I dont know what to try so I asked 4 people what to get and the consensus came quick: a double cheeseburger smothered with sauce and onion rings , loganberry drink and raspberry milkshake, $13. What a meal. Best quick service meal I've had in a very long time. Maybe best I've ever had. Great job and now I know why this place is usually lined up most of the day. Greetings from Canada.
I stopped here for a hotdog and onion rings, delicious. Don't let the long lines fool you, service is quick. They have picnic benches in the shade and lots of parking. The prices are decent as well.
My family and I love reids there fast friendly and cheap. We get cheeseburgers, White hots and red hots for younger kids fries onion rings and don't forget reids sauce. After dinner we get ice cream lots of options
Never a bad experience , Eva Eva Eva Eva . Over 26yrs of enjoying this experience and it's still the best . Don't go as often but when I do , it's fantastic and the children love it as well .
I’ve been coming to Reid’s since I was a kid, and it’s still just as good as ever. The food is always tasty and reasonably priced. Even if the place looks busy, don’t let that fool you—the service is fast and efficient. A classic spot that never disappoints.
I have been going to Reids since 1955..ok I am old. Growing up I loved the White Hots with sauce and fries. When I was 18 I went to college and came back summers and indulged in my favorite dogs. My mom lived nearby, so visits to her included visits to Reids. Then my mom moved away in 2011 and that was it. However I got the cravings. Earlier this month my mom passed at 102. This meant a trip to Lockport from NYC for the Burial. So I strategized the trip with White Hot Dogs in mind. When we arrived in Lockport we headed straight for Reids. When I turned onto Lockport Olcott road nearing Reids my mouth watered. It was a beautiful March day, 2025, I ordered my 2 white hots with sauce. I bought my Daughter in Law one as she had never experienced this. They were exactly the way they were years and years ago. So amazing. This is one of the treasures in American that we never forget. I will be back someday....
I've been coming here for 40+ years since I was a little kid. My dad convinced me to try the white hot with sauce back then and it's still what I order. I load it with pickles now. Burgers, shakes and ice cream are also really good! I try to visit every time I'm back in town. So happy it's stayed open for all these years!
We love going here, mostly for the ice cream. We love the ice cream and the owners. Great people. We will continue go there and tell everyone we know. We just had two of their signature ice cream sundaes!! Amazing and huge! The girls are so sweet and kind. The place is so adorable and very clean...you will never be disappointed here. Enjoy!
food was delicious as always!\nService was quick even though there were lots of people in line.
What an awesome treat. The hotdogs were very good. The fries were good. The service was good. Everyone was very kind. After ordering we sat in the shade and enjoyed our meal.

Great prices for a hamburger & hot dog stand. Don't sleep on the milkshakes. Onion rings are great.
Was a slow day when we visited so we got plenty of attention from employees and the seagull's. Tge place is just how I remembered from my younger days. Where else can go and feed 4 people fir $25. The ice cream store next door was exceptional.
Hands downs best plain burgers and hot dogs around i can eat so many... their awesome prices and top notch milkshake. Super fast like true fast food.... now the only bad thing and I mean the only bad thing i can think of is which if you order as family it comes out in big pile of food and hard to tell whose food is who but not even mad just could be touch better... other than that Ill be back again and again
I would still say this is a reasonable place to stop for lunch, but it is not as cheap as it once was... but what is? I would say the value has dropped to though. The biggest disappointment is the be…

Truly amazing, this is a throwback to my youth! It's been over a decade since I've been back! I truly miss this place. They have the best hot dogs I've ever had, their unique sauce - truly out of t…
Quick update now accepting cards! Food is still great! Haven't been by in quite some time and the prices are still unreal. Always a favorite!
It was ok i think the pickles might have been out to long with the flys everywhere and they only have ketchup and mustard no mayo. You can prob just make it at home 10x cheaper
I only died here because of the people I was with wanted to come. As someone who does not eat meat there are really not very many options for me at Reid's. I'm all for supporting local businesses and I do enjoy their ice cream. I do not recommend their grilled cheese, it was a small and sad sandwich made with two burger buns and some American cheese. It was also dry and everybody knows a good grilled cheese should have melt in your mouth buttery grilled bread. So many establishments do not have vegetarian and vegan options. I've been to several burger places that offer plant-based options but sadly this is not one of them.
Sauce sucks now. They just set ur hotdawgs in the box w no napkins under it. Like its a plate. Fries r always undercooked. But i would still eat it. Once a year.

I always see people here so I stopped by. Nothing special about the food at all. If you want hot fries and a plain burger stop here. You want flavor go somewhere else.
