We LOVE Botsford!! The food is all beyond amazing and they have incredibly reasonable pricing! They have outside seating to enjoy the summer day and a fresh cooked meal! The whole staff is amazing and so kind! I would give it 10 starts if possible!!

This is one of my favorite places to get lunch. Their food is amazing and have the best hot dogs and hamburgers in town. And the prices are so cheap. Friendly staff + good food + good prices = 5 stars

Plain old hot dog joint. Footlongs. Standard toppings. They offer some seafood and breakfast options but from the looks of this place I wouldn't try them. Service fairly slow considering the offerings. Pepsi fountain drinks available. No ice cream.

I stop here about once a week for a breakfast sandwich, hash browns and a bottle of water. The owner is always there and always nice. I use to think Dutchess had good breakfast sandwiches but Botsford drive in is way better. Never a long line, if you want a quick tasty bite to eat, this is the place to go. The hot dogs are delicious as well. Don't forget to ask for ketchup though, without asking you will not receive any.

They have the best real ice cream milk shakes. I think I counted about 14 scoops of ice cream for each shake! No wonder it takes a little more time to prepare. Worth the wait

Place is great , if the chili had more kick I'd give it 5. They even have Kielbasa and Brats. Can't go wrong with the Zoar Burger or the coleslaw . The coleslaw here doesn't have that nasty bite like so many other joints. So if you get some fried seafood and look forward to a decent side of coleslaw this is the place. Also it's right along part of the Paugussett Trail.

Reminds me of the old drive-in hop stops back in the day. All they need is a drive in theater. Corn fritters and fries are great and always fresh and hot 👍💯😃

Happened upon this place randomly on the way back to Westchester from Connecticut. The hot dogs were fantastic. They had a slight crispiness in the casing, which gave it a wonderful crunch. I had the "Works" and the "Eddy" dogs and both were great. Ingredients seemed and tasted fresh. The onions on the Eddy had really really nice flavor. I highly recommend this place. My little cousin, who is an extremely picky eater, and has a diet of maybe 7 foods, hot dogs being one of them, said that it was top 5 hot dogs he's had. He went with the plain hot dog, and to me that spoke volumes.

Nice roadside stand. They have hit dogs, burgers, grinders and seafood selections. Being the first time here, I had a hot dog and small fries. Both were excellent! Oh yes, they have milk shakes, too. Next time I'll try one.

This place is known for a classic dog and has been around since I was a kid...they never disappoint in that regard so this time I decided to try a cheesesteak...was pleasantly surprised at how decent it was...all though the peppers and onions were a lil over salted that they were fried together separate was a nice touch. The grinder roll was soft and the price was on point...def worth slidin up by n I always forget they be havin a drive thru there too... Super on point

I love jumbo dogs and I've been coming here every since I was a little boy. I got mozzarella sticks today and as amazing as they were they did not have any marinara sauce. That is the only complaint I can think of. More than fair price and solid quality.

Dogs with variety of toppings. Burger and chicken too. Fries or onion ring side choices may have been the best item. All in a small 50-60 year old fifties-style roadside stand with drive up or walk up and outdoor seating. Friendly staff, reasonable prices.

Passed by this place for a year and finally stopped tonight. I was very hungry so ordered like 5 things off the menu and it was real cheap. I didn’t have much hope that it would taste as good as it was. The king dog was very good along with the Texas fries. The outdoor benches could use some TLC but the area was indeed clean when I went. No line as well and the employees were very nice.

Here's a 'hot dog stand' that serves more than just that. I ordered, of course, a hotdog and fries, and my friend ordered a chicken burger. It didn't take them long to produce food for us. It was hot (as it should be) and pretty decent. The fries were served in a little bag -- they weren't in a little tray that gets cold quickly -- and i could roll over the top to keep them warm. All in all, you should give this place a try.

If you are looking for an inexpensive place to grab lunch or dinner, I would definitely recommend trying this place. Good burgers, fries, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs and shakes. Its a little run down, but kids working always seemed friendly and having a drive-thru window is a plus... in case of rain or laziness :)

If your looking for a nice hole-in-the-wall style fast food place, Botsford Drive-In is a good bet. The lobster roll sandwich we had was actually surprisingly decent for what you'd expect. While its not the best burger I've had, the place is definitely good enough to satisfy your cravings for a burger and a milkshake if your hungry and in the area. I'd definitely go back too. Order ahead of getting there though!
