Fining room was festively decorated for Christmas. Very clean. Service friendly and fast. Burger qas incredible- VERY juicy. Perfectly cooked. Will visit again and try the custard, didn't have room! They were making waffle cones at the counter that smelled divine!

Was really busy when we came, but food came out in a reasonable time and service was very friendly. The inside is decorated nicely for fall, and they keep the place pretty clean. Food is very fresh and homemade, you can taste the strawberries in the ice cream shakes (not old/too frozen), and veggies are crisp. Burger patty is thick!! Was considering getting a double but that single was more than enough. Portions are generous. 4 stars though because the flavors were just eh. Burger tasted like nothing too special, and same goes for the onion rings. Fries and shake were pretty decent, though.

I ordered a burger and a frozen custard on my way to see the autumn leaves in Shenandoah. I was introduced as a restaurant with delicious burgers and frozen custards, and it was as delicious as I expected. It's far from home, but I think I'll visit every time I go to Shenandoah. Especially the frozen custard when I was driving while watching the autumn leaves was more delicious. It's a sweet memory.

Great burger spot with great burgers, fries and chicken sandwiches. 10/10 for flavor, quality, speed, and price. Really feels like a old burger spot from back in the day with the prices to match. Definitely worth stopping by. Gets really packed at times but they have an additional parking lot on the back end.

Delicious burgers and shakes! The onion rings and fries were a little overcooked or at least the oil where they were cooked. The place is cute and cozy and always crowed in fall! I would still recommend you to give it a chance.

Spelunker's was so delicious that we might run it back. They kept a steady crowd inside and in drive thru. The customer service was great and the fries and cheesesteak (pictured) even better. Actually, the fries were PERFECTION.... crunchy outside and soft inside. You can taste the freshness of the shaved beef. Definitely worth a visit or 2 if you're in the area.

Good food and good service. The steak sub was really good. The onion rings were the best I’ve ever had! The custard was a diabetic’s nightmare but was very tasty! Nathan one of the managers was very nice and accommodating! Tray one of the employees was really chill and very pleasure to talk to. We will visit again for the burgers and stop and see the Beer museum.

This was one of the best burgers I've had in recent memory. We ate some food here after hiking in the mountains and it really hit the spot. We ate here on a Wednesday evening and it was insanely busy for how small of a town it is in. After I experienced the great service and then the great food, I now know why it was so busy on a Wednesday evening. The burger was juicy, the fries were fresh, and the frozen custard was totally on point. This place knocks it out of the park. If I'm ever driving through the area again, I will be returning.
