Pleasantly surprised to see this old place kicking! Use to be a favorite of mine as a kid, whenever I'm in forks I like to try going at least once. Over the years there has been some bumps but I went again just this week in 2017 summer and my gosh the food was GREAT! They are pretty popular so it gets a bit busy. Just be ready with a friend to chat with or bring a book while you wait. It's worth it I think. In fact I think I'll go there for lunch today!

Have loved this place since I was a kid. The Monster burger is amazing and they have the best onion rings I've ever had. And the Cherry Coke is like no other.

Oh! FINALLY after 7 years of living here, I made it over to Keg's!!! I tried the onion rings, sloppy joe and root beer float. I was not disappointed. Next year, I plan to get the family over there. Definitely a golden nugget inside Grand Forks. Thanks for great food and perfect service!

Kegs Drive-In is a historic place and it's a drive up and eat place, which is very cool because not many places have that anymore! There are many different options on the menu and their sloppy joes are amazing, and it's very good priced not expensive at all! Also their Cherry Coke is absolutely amazing, same with the steak sandwich! It's easy and quick food and when you leave you will be satisfied and full!
