If you like maid rite burgers you might enjoy the food more than we did. The meat had no flavor. However, the fries and iced tea were great! Cute place! I don’t think the kids loved working there. We heard the cheese cards were great and the pie looked good too. FYI: there are steep stairs to the bathroom. Not wheelchair accessible!

I liked the place. It had the perfect small town feel with your typical small town American food.
The place was basically an open kitchen. The place looked sharp and clean when I walked in after the lunch hours.
The maid-rite wasn’t really flavorful; it required me to add condiments. It tasted much better when I added a little ketchup and some salt.
Onion rings were good. Iced tea was also nice.
Will return to try other dishes, like its chili, pork tenderloin and desserts, next time.

We arrived 10 minutes before closing time. We asked if it was ok & were told we could have anything we wanted. We were treated as if we were the 1st customers of the day.
We each had a CheeseRite & shared a chocolate malt.
Everyone was cheerful & friendly.
We have been here many times. Food has always been good as well as the service.

Great ambiance and service given while you are served real homemade treats, made fresh daily. Fast food originals that are brought to life with great newly added ingredients. You will not be disappointed with your choice off of this menu. While you wait for the main course, pick a mouth watering dessert to top off the meal. I highly recommend this place.

Thinking it was wednesday at noon Pam wanted to eat a bite at the Dan’s Sandwich Shop/Sandwiches Made Rite so off we went. She had the Chili Cheese Fries, I had the Chicken Tenders and an order of fries.
Pam’s meal was blah at very best, she couldn’t even finish hers, I tried a bite and found it to be pretty much tastless. My Chicken Tenders were tender but had an after taste, made me wonder if they were fried in old dirty oil. The French Fries at the Sandwich Shop used to be wonderful, mine were noticeably a smaller order than in the past and quite blah and tasteless at very best. As shown in the photo I could only eat about half my order and I was hungry. The ladies at the table next to us were unhappy with their Maid Rites, telling us the meat was very greasy.
I noticed not many customers were there, so thinking something must have changed since our last visit. We knew they had new menus printed since a new owner took over and went back more to what it was originally, then we noticed on those new menus a number of offerings were crossed out with a black marker.
The very best part of my meal was that glass of water pictured.
We likely won’t ever be going back there, there’s too many other better choices for our money, what a shame. I really hate to give a bad review but this one earned my icky-poo award.

Great selection of meals. Good service.
Used to be the place to go on Friday and Saturday nights. Hours need to be extended to at least 8 PM.

A childhood favorite of my husband’s, Dan’s Maid-Rite has become a long standing family favorite when visiting Newton. The kids always request to go and grandma and grandpa are more than eager to comply! On any given day, you will see generations of families passing through its doors and if you’re lucky, a greeting scribbled on the chalkboard from someone you’ve missed. I’ve been told the place hasn’t changed in decades and in the 16+ yrs I’ve been acquainted, this has held true. The quality, deliciousness, and value of the food is steady as the sun. Not unlike your favorite broken in jeans, Dan’s is worn around the edges in the very best of ways; comfortable, predictable, inviting, and just feels like home.

I’ve been a fan of Dan’s Sandwich shop for years.. think MAIDRITE .. the service is good food is good too. Downside… prices are getting quite high, what use to be a full bag of fries has become about a half bag. I understand price increase, but don’t cut the portions.. ill always eat at Dan’s, just not as often
