Click through the gallery to discover all the amazing hamburgers the Eastside has to offer.

Ranch Drive-In

If old school’s your game, then the Ranch Drive-In is for you. A local Bothell icon, the Ranch Drive-In (which isn’t actually a drive-in any more), does provide inside, outside and walk up and to-go orders of classic burger fare. The best part? The burgers are delish, the service is quick and friendly and the Ranch sauce is worth the trip alone.

What to order: Quarter and half-pound burgers are standard and come with the usual suspects of lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickle and/or bacon. And while there’s not a specific kids' menu, the Special Burger is a smaller, scaled-down version (just mustard and ketchup). Or lil' dude and dudettes can order grilled cheese, hot dogs, corn dogs or fish or chicken sandwiches. Of course fries, onion rings and a huge assortment of shakes and malts are also on the menu. Try the pumpkin, eggnog, or marshmallow shake!

Good to know: The Ranch Drive-In is within walking distance of Bothell Landing park, if you want to make an afternoon of it.
