    I feel like a broken record: I love me the small town burger shack. So with that context, know that Mel's is a little piece of heaven for me. I mean, this is a divey little joint in a small town that I tried on my way back from a national park road trip. Pretty much heaven. Mel's is exactly what you'd expect in a side of the road burger shop: makeshift building, greasy burgers, and a small selection of shakes that will make you quiver and shiver. I ordered my classic: double bacon cheeseburger, fries, and chocolate banana shake. The burger was nice--not too large, but packed with charred cheese and a little bit of bacon. I was a little disappointed that the order of fries wasn't larger, but these are thicker fries (not steak fries, but not shoestring, either) and I gobbled them up all too fast. As the shake goes, I'm a fan. Very, very creamy. The banana wasn't as well incorporated as I typically like, but the creaminess made up for it. What a great way to end a road trip and get my grease on!

    I'd eaten here a couple of years ago while riding the Paiute Trail and stopped in again on our way back from Capitol Reef. I had a double cheese and that's about as big a burger as I can handle in one sitting. Also had some potato thingies called "Piccadillies", kind of a deep fried mashed potato tot, which were good and of course since you're in Utah it comes with "fry sauce" instead of ketchup. Hey when in Rome, right? Yeah, the place looks like it's been around awhile but it's off the freeway in a small town so I'd expect that profit margins aren't great. If you're looking for a good burger, this is one of the best I've had. Want something else? Their menu selection is huge. Why would you go on a long trip and stop to eat at McDonald's at the bottom of an off-ramp when there's already 3 franchises within walking distance of your home? Get out there and experience America before it all has the same corporate taste. BTW, does the spelling "drive-inn" and not "drive-in" have something to do with copyright stuff from Universal Studios?

    I wish i had realized how long i was waiting in line! Under no circumstance would i ever recommend this place it was not worth the wait, staff is rude, food was barely ok. I understand its cooked to order but 45 min. Come on no exaggeration! Their system is out of control theres no flow.

    Cool little burger joint across from the Best Western motel. Straight up burgers and awesome milk shakes. Very friendly staff a few tables and some quarter games. There is a mexican side of the menu with tacos and burritos. I did a double cheese burger. I couldn't finish it. Burger patties are just the right size. Ozzing with cheese and onions, pickles, LTO on a great bun. Fries, Strawberry shake I got it to go. Shake is proper, so thick its got to sit for like 10 minutes before it goes thru the straw. Onion rings here are great. My order came with a side of special sauce. I would come back. If I stay again in Beaver.

    Great burgers and great service. The shakes rock too. Too bad it's in Utah. If you are going for some cheese in Beaver then stop here too. Great burger shack.

    Stopped here for lunch on our way to SLC. The food was great but nothing that I would HAVE to go back for, just typical burger joint food...not bad but just nothing that I really rave about. HOWEVER their shakes I WILL go back for! they were sooooooo good. made to order with REAL fruit. We had strawberry and it was like eatting home made strawberry ice cream. Clean and friendly service. Nice little grassy picnic area out back as well if you wanted to get out of the car and run around a bit, just hang out , etc.

    Basic backyard burger, minus flavor, half the meat, and no personality from the staff. I highly recommend....nothing. Wanted to try the Navajo tacos and they didn't have any taco meat. they also couldn't explain what it was - only that it was a taco on a scone. (Actually, that description made me want to pay to see it). Large fries means extra salt and two containers of thousand island dressing. Picadilly is fried potatoes like tater tots, but not shredded. Couldn't try those either (none in the freezer) Picnic tables are in the back if you want to eat al fresco. We did. Nice and quiet. So, skip this place and you won't be let down.

    Stopped in here last week. My son and I were looking for something other than the usual small town gas station/restaurant combo. The place isn't huge inside, maybe 5 or 6 tables, but there was some space outside or take it to go. Tables inside look to be 30 years old and well used, but clean on top. We both ordered the bacon cheeseburger, fries and a shake. We waited maybe 10 minutes while they actually cooked the food. Shakes came out first and were what was expected, thick and strawberry flavored. Not out of this world, but good. Fries and burger made their way out eventually. Fries were hot and tasty. Burger was big, hot and juicy, the lettuce and pickle were still cold. Good bun. Overall a good spot to stop. If I'm passing through and hungry, I'll stop again. Could get crowded with a large family or group.

    Childhood favorite! Driving through on the way up the mountain. Had a coke float and a freeze. Just like I had 20 years ago! So happy this place is still around. Did not eat food this time but I bet its still as good as ever. Fry sauce and all!

    Decent greasy burgers, really good pickadillies, but we weren't impressed with the strawberry shake.

    Go to McDonald's! It's as dirty as the staff was rude! She put the ice cream cone back in the ice cream machine four times because it was so runny and tried to serve me the same ice cream cone. This place is disgusting. They argued with me about the fries being cold, then after finally reaching into my bag and trying a french fry, she offered to put them back in the microwave to reheat them again. Stay far away! If I am suffering from food poisoning tomorrow I know it's from this place! Locals seemed shocked it was that bad; I won't be going back to try again!!

    Came because of the great Yelp reviews, was disappointed. There were flies. It wasn't that clean. It's basically it was a dive. There aren't even restrooms. It wasn't particularly fast and it was overpriced for what we got. The hamburgers were good in that they had fresh tomatoes, onions and fixings, but they weren't great. Same with the fries. I'd only go back for the ice cream. For some reason the McDonald's in Beaver is one of the dirtiest I've ever seen, so I hoped Mel's would replace it on our way back from Vegas. But it won't.
