I drive past Ice Cream Man pretty often, but for some reason I haven’t noticed since Papa John’s left the spot next to it.
And NOW?
Now there’s a sign up that says “South Broadway Drive-In”, and while I briefly did some online stalking to come up with some answers, I can’t seem to find ANY information on it whatsoever.
I mean, I suppose I could go to Ice Cream Man and ask them if they know anything, but I’m saving my ice cream intake for warmer weather.
It’s for this reason that I’m coming to you, my food fanatics. Do you know the story with this new place?! Any details at all?
If so, please comment below!

I observed the same. I bet it’s yet another ice cream shop that has recognized the potential profit in diversifying. Queensbury’s Martha’s has even gone this route after decades as a seasonal ice cream stand.
Saratofa Drive-In is a new concept that we have been working on for the past couple months. It’s going to be classic American food. So we’ve got your classic burger, fries, fish fry and much more. There are so many burger places in Saratoga though. So what we’re doing is trying to give people a little bit of a healthier option. We’re using fresh food and produce so you’re not eating as many of those chemicals.
Our plan is to open up in the next couple of weeks. Currently everything is up and running, but we’re still squaring away the menu and working on installing a new order window.. I’ll leave another post in the next week or so with a concrete date for the Grand Opening.
Once we’re open we’re going to rely on you guys and girls to let us know what you think. So after you try us out ask for Chris and let me know what you think. If you have suggestions for the menu I’d also love to hear it. We’re always looking for new ideas! Also after we get going I’ll be introducing a special of the week, so let us know what YOU want, and I’ll try and make that happen.
sorry for the spelling mistakes. It’s Saratoga*
Thank you so much for replying, Chris! I’m so grateful to have the answer from the source, himself! This concept sounds awesome, and definitely something we need in Saratoga. Can’t wait for you to open and to visit and give my feedback. Thanks again for your response, and please shoot me an email when you guys officially open! [email protected]. Thanks!
Just visited South Broadway Drive-in tonight. The staff was helpful and nice. The machine they are using to take orders is terrible. We were a party of six and the food came out in a timely manner and was all nice and hot. They forgot our two large order of fries and we had to wait equal to the time of our other food. The reg. fries were hot with no salt and they tasted like they weren’t done the sweet potato fries were cold but done. 3 philly cheesesteaks, fish fry, and chicken sandwich, and mozz. sticks. The fish was bland and nothing special, the Philly cheesesteaks with their rubbery out of the microwave buns again nothing special, the chicken sandwich looked the best but no mayo or any sauce and we weren’t asked if we wanted anything, lastly mozz. sticks looked tasty as well but we’re served with…ketchup. Took the time to have ice cream man as well…Everything was awesome! Soooo stick to the ice cream man treats.
