Visiting the Lodi A&W feels like a culinary pilgrimage, as this site marks the historic first-ever location of the storied brand. I was genuinely surprised to find that the establishment wasn’t packed to capacity. The menu features burgers that are consistently tasty and seasoned well. Accompanying the mains are the crunchy fries, which provide a perfectly crisp texture.
Of course, their famous root beer float, a signature item that demands your full attention. Served in their iconic, heavy-duty big glass mugs. The carbonation is remarkably lively, causing the foam to erupt from the mug like a volcano if you aren’t ready to catch it. You would be wise to keep a stack of napkins within reach, as that “volcano” effect can quickly lead to a sticky cleanup mission. Despite the potential mess, the creamy blend of soft serve and spiced root beer remains an unparalleled treat. It is a rare delight to experience a piece of food history that still delivers on its original promises of quality and charm. For anyone passing through Lodi, this location is an essential stop for a legendary frosty mug.

This is the OG A&W and it is amazing. When you dine in you get the best root beer ever in a frosted glass.
The staff here is super friendly and the food is great but I was a little tiny bit disappointed because back in the day the A&W I went to had crinkly fries. But no worries this place rocks and it’s like a museum. If you are in Lodi, CA it’s a must go even if it’s just for a frosted mug of root beer

Clean and quiet. Came during their last hour, used kiosk to order. This was our first time trying this chain. With all the upgrades it came to about $20 per person, quite pricey for fast food. Everything came out fairly quickly, hot and delicious!

Cute & Nostalgic place with lots of memorabilia. We went there for the Lodi Restaurant Week Special. The Double Bacon Cheeseburger, Cheese Curds, Diet Root Beer, & Carmel Sundae were all really good that we had and service was friendly & efficient. It was a great fast food experience!

Visiting the original A&W stand in Lodi, CA, was such a treat! I loved seeing all the memorabilia on display, it’s like stepping back in time. The food is classic comfort fare, with lots of fried options that are absolutely delicious and served piping hot. It’s a must stop if you’re in Lodi, whether you’re a history buff or just craving some great eats. Don’t miss out on this iconic spot!

Old skool restaurant, in the middle of a “downtown” district of a rundown ag town. The trophy case has hundreds of articles of A&W paraphernalia, including limited edition souvenir mugs, labeled by year. There’s a drive thru and a drive-up (don’t know if it operates like Arnold’s from Happy Days, but it’s skating waitress-ready.

This is the original A and W. Yes, they actually were originally a few blocks away. They have a great memorabilia exhibit there. Worth going to see

A very historic restaurant. This is the very first A&W Restaurant in the U.S. I haven’t had A&W food for several years and it was AWESOME. The staff were super friendly. Clean place with LOTS of cool vintage A&W memorabilia on display.

Love this place! Burgers are really good I recommend getting a double because the single is a little thin. Always warm and fresh. Obviously when you’re here, you have to try the root beer too. It’s to die for. Good location, nice clean restaurant. Can’t go wrong.
