Was with friends & needed to grab a quick lunch. We ordered two chipped ham with cheese, & a hotdog. Also three ice teas that were enormous. Came to just over $12.00. Big portions, good food, good prices. Quick service. Wish they had these stands in New York State!

Growing up in East Tennessee, Pal's was a local landmark. My Mom would always order me a milkshake and herself a sweet tea. The burgers and fries were always excellent. When visiting my relatives in Johnson City and visiting Pal's, I'm always whistful for the old days and my simple Pal's memories with Mom always make me happy. I've never... More

Usually make this a must when I visit family in East Tennessee. My order usually consists of 2 chili buns with onions and mustard, frenchie fry with extra seasoning and a sweet tea! Always good and such a treat!

Driving up to the drivethru was a bit confusing. I saw menu boards and a window and thought i had entered the out lane somehow. Come to find out this is where you placed your order with a person face to face. It was a little hard to see the menu while talking to the person. But all that aside... More

Pal's is certainly a staple in East TN! Great service, very clean, awesome food. Locally owned. The walk-ins are the best!

I'm not much on fast food, but it does have its place. Pal's makes me happy just by being a small local chain. It's probably not really better than McDonald's but it's got turquoise buildings and bright yellow signs and employees who don't seem like they're working there because they hit rock bottom. I like the burgers and the milkshakes... More

Beats Mickey D's or any other out there, good Quality food at a very decent price. Was raised on this place. Back in the day, they would give you a sauceburger for every A that you had on your report card. Wonderful

Whenever we visit Tennessee we have to stop by Pal's and get their milkshakes. They are really thick and flavorful! The food is alright, but you must have a milkshake.

This is a drive thru only service. The quanity of the fries and the small size of the hotdogs are a disappointment. The buildings are very decorative and enticing. Wish the food was too. This is only OK
