Goldenrod Drive-in - Manchester

This restaurant offers classic local counter service with a selection of burgers, fried seafood, and more. It is a popular place for ice cream and features outdoor window service. The food is made to order, so it is not considered fast food. I particularly enjoyed the lobster roll, which came on a nicely toasted buttered hot dog bun with fresh and sweet mayo and lobster. Although the lobster roll was on the smaller side, the price was reasonable. The fries were crispy and seemed to be battered. The cole slaw was finely chopped, almost pureed, very wet, and lacked seasoning. It was served in a small lidded cup that I would expect to see a side sauce in. The fountain drink cups are small, about 12 oz, but refills are available. Overall, the experience was nostalgic and definitely worth a visit.

This restaurant is a fantastic spot to enjoy some delicious fried seafood dishes! I ordered the clam belly plate and was extremely satisfied with my meal. We also indulged in some ice cream for dessert, which was absolutely divine - chocolate with a peanut butter swirl! While the prices may be a bit steep, the quality of the food and the friendly staff definitely make it worth it. Don't hesitate to stop by and treat yourself to some tasty dishes.

I was introduced to this ice cream place by my boyfriend and I am thoroughly impressed. They offer a wide variety of ice cream flavors as well as food options. I tried the bubble gum flavor and it was delicious! The small serving size was quite generous. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be returning!

Went again today. Another lobster roll, just the right size! Hotdog bun was nicely toasted. The clams were excellent, fried to perfection. The half gallon icecreams are inside, we brought home a black rasp every and it was excellent. Actually tasted like fruit! Ordered outside, ate inside. Great prices, food was awesome. Try the lobster roll...perfect! Clean tables, counters and restrooms. Suggestion: hand out plasticware with the meal so I don't have to worry that someone touched it.

I have no complaints about the food here. We drove by the other day for some yummy ice cream. And we kept driving because the parking was too hectic. I understand this isn't really anyone's fault. And there isn't much that can be done about this. But it is something we keep in mind and find elsewhere to get ice cream.
