5/2/24 @3pm - Tourist here trying the chocolate kustard, and it is not very flavorful. I haven't had kustard in years, so I made a U-turn for this. Not worth the stop.
Door Dashed burger , fries, shakes. Shakes were as usual were delicious. I ordered cheese fries for $5.10. The fries were soggy and cold , in a bag small as Ff from other establishments. My husband got a triple hamburger with lettuce and tomato. The lettuce appeared to have been cooked with the burger it was greasy and slimy. The hamburgers were so dry it fell apart onto the floor when he opened it. The tomato looked like it had been stepped on and put on the bun. We have never had food so terrible from Kreckles in the past For $43 (including all the extra charges from DD )our dog was thrilled with her dinner.
This was where my dad ate 2 or 3 times a week back in 1972, in the back of the kitchen with a friend, and the incredible old man Krekel frying burgers on the grill! Thanks so much for the memories!
