Valley Farm Drive-In

Sloppy food. Come on give a little effort for the price of your food. I had there eggplant grinder. Looks like slice of mushy eggplant drowned in sauce. Im Pretty Mad. Was looking forward to it. 7 bucks for trash

The recession special ($ 5) for 2 hotdogs and a soda was a pretty good deal. At least I can say I’ve tried Valley Farm Drive-​In. But IMO, Costco’s hotdog is bigger and better.

Nostalgia. That’s what happens when I think of Valley Farm.
I lived right next to Valley Farm until my 21^st birthday. The little yellow house next to the parking lot? Yep, that’s my old house! Haven’t been there in a while, so don’t get on me about how the property looks! I’ve moved from Connecticut (huge mistake). I have Valley Farm to thank for my tasty childhood memories.
The people there are like family and I miss them dearly. I wonder if they even remember me? I had a habit of ordering either a chicken cutlet with just mayo and tomato or a chicken parm grinder. Always had to get an order of fries with pepper and ketchup and an order of chili cheese fries. The best in town. Since I grew up on this food, I’ve been comparing what I eat now to back then. I need to stop because I keep disappointing myself.
Over the years, the prices have increased, but the place has changed as well. Kids in the neighbourhood who lived on this food as well eventually started working there, feeding their own kids hotdogs and hamburgers from Valley Farm or just stop by to say hi. It’s just how we lived. I remember that one day when Titanic came out on the VHS set (who remembers that?). I had my dad order me a large cheese pizza from Valley Farm and I ate it by myself. I watched Titanic three times that day and ate a whole pizza. Good times~
BLTs, meatball grinders (my parents loved them), Italian ice and vanilla cones with rainbow sprinkles during the summer. I even went there when I was a vegetarian. Fries with ketchup and an egg and bell pepper grinder. The fried dough nearly killed me. It was great with powdered sugar. It was great with tomato sauce. It was awesome with BOTH!
Rich and the gang, if you’re read this, I miss all of you terribly!

They have the best hot dogs in the area. Deep fried dog on the best bun. The bun is not your average bun. It holds the toppings without turning into a soggy mess. Pretty good milkshakes too. Fries and o rings are just ok. Friendly staff. Take out only. Cash only. Not a great neighborhood.

Let me just start off by saying that the food is delicious but I would never go back.
Reason number 1– The place was disturbingly messy. (Mostly the kitchen)
Reason number 2– The guy that was cooking our food doesn’t care about his job. He threw our hot dogs into the oil and it hit the greasy wall of the fryer. He picked out an eye booger (NO GLOVES). He kept talking and laughing with his coworkers so he was spitting all over our food. I’m pretty sure he cross contaminated because he touched meat, bread, money, sauces, and bottles all without gloves. On top of all that, when a customer called to order some food this guy made a gesture of grabbing his junk like if he was telling them to suck it.
I will never go back.

Great hog dogs and burgers foods awesome Great mom-​and-​pop hotdog stand they also have very good pizza

I went there on a Saturday after a car show in Stratford and was skeptical about the place. I perused the menu for a few minutes and saw they had a porketta sandwich which was a «Saturday only» menu item.
I said eh! Lets go for it, the guy behind the counter asked me if i wanted onion, pepper and gravy and i replied «of course» I mean when in Rome…
I also ordered chili cheese fries with it, i have to say firstly the sandwich which was served on a fresh grinder roll was suberb! I mean it was shockingly good! I was quite taken aback at how delicious it was and truthfully could have eaten another! It was right up there with the neighborhood Italian places of yester-​year who served this with roast beef sandwiches back in the day. Nice tender pork, good gravy and sauteed onions which were sweet and complimented the tangy hot peppers.
Now to the not so good the chili? If you can even call it that? It was more like meat sauce marinara. no chili spice flavor whatsoever, cut down on the amount of meat in it and add some spices and it would be good! Fries were good just the topping was weird and off tasting on fries.
Other than that i would go back on a Saturday for porketta, one other thing the kids behind the counter need to tone down on the language a bit, i thought i was in the Marine barracks.

Awesome food and great service. Everything on the menu is delicious.

This has been a staple of mine since I was a teenager growing up in Bridgeport. There are places you always remember because of the great food and service they provide. Anyone who comes to my city has to go to the best hamburger joint in town. Flew in and had to go there, may they always hold it down…
Best Ever

Cute little place. No seating. Just take out. Love their peppers and egg sandwich. Quick service.

This place has awesome food and quick service. Do not pass this one by.
Everything one the menu is awesome, from their hamburgs, hot dogs, fries, pizza, to the milkshakes. The food is flavorful and the fries are crispy. The milk shake is perfect.
The customer service is good; what else do you need.

Great place for some tasty fast food!
Hot Dogs, Burgers, Egg sandwich… it’s all good in this neighborhood.

A good friend of mine lives within 3 minutes walking distance of Valley Farm and it has become a staple food source anytime I go to visit him.
They have good hot dogs and french fries and everything else that I’ve seen or tried on their menu lives up to what you’d expect from one of the more popular fast-​food joints in the area.
I recommend a hot dog and an extra large fry on your first trip — and definitely one of their milkshakes. I’m not a big milkshake fan, but for them I make an exception.
