Arctic Circle

This was a great experience. I haven't been to a Arctic Circle in 20 year's and finding out this was here was well worth the 2 1/2 hour drive to share the experience of eating here with my kid's as my parent's and grand parent's did with me. The restaurant was very clean inside and out, the staff was very happy, friendly and looked like they liked their job. Okay so on to the food. The food was great and just as I remembered it ( maybe a little different but still about the same 😁 ), it came out hot and fresh with the drinks being ice cold. If you are in town and looking for a good place to grab a quick bite then I strongly would recommend going here especially since there aren't many Arctic Circle restaurants around anymore.

P.S.
Please make sure to try ( What I call it ) the Arctic Circle sauce. It is amazing on the burgers and fries alike.

The girl at the drive thru window on 12/31/23 at 1:30 pm was excellent. She was articulate, polite, upbeat and accurate in taking our order. Super employee. If I had a restaurant, I would steel her!

Fries are crispy and soft in the middle. The burger is well-prepared and with fresh toppings the Patty itself is a little dry but that's why they have the best burger sauce.

My kids grew up going to Arctic Circle on a weekly basis, so like any tradition, my review is likely biased. For a fast food restaurant, their Ranch burgers are better than other generic burger chains in my estimation. You can't beat their fry sauce and you can even buy it by the bottle.

Love the cheese curds! Everything we have ordered there has been great. Pretty reasonably priced too.

This is the last Arctic Circle restaurant left in Washington State. Don’t let the dated artwork or somewhat run down exterior fool you, this is a solid burger joint with a few things that make it special. The most special thing is the fry sauce, it’s perfectly sweet and sour, A+. Shakes and ice cream is also really good and worth a trip. Burgers and fries are pretty standard but solid. If you’re in Yakima there are lots of good burger options but whatever you do just skip McDonalds and consider Arctic Circle on Nob Hill.

they have a cheeseburger that is an off menu item that is my all time favorite burger. it's called the little BBQ. please don't ever stop making this burger!!!

Wow! The awards on the wall are absolutely well-deserved. I can't remember this high of quality at a fast food burger restaurant, let alone fast food in general. We had the Bacon & Cheddar and Mushroom & Swiss burgers as combination meals. Wife subbed out a raspberry shake for her drink.. real fruit! The fries were on par with the russet potato products grown next region over in the Columbia Basin, so likely locally sourced. Burgers were juicy and tender with the perfect chew to palate ratio. This place is special, Yakima.. do not take it for granted! Easily gives the Miner family a run for their money.. dare I say that? I think I just did! Granted, this Arctic Circle has maybe 1/8th the searing capacity of Miner's, but if you're in a small, quiet group, consider coming here.

Great food, please keep the crinkle cut fries I'll eat there everyday

I went through the drive thru. The customer service was good, my order was all correct and food was awesome!

It's not the prettiest place but not down looking either. Great price and amazing food. Wish there was one closer to our home. Everything off the menu was good that we tried, definitely get the onion rings and fry sauce!

Their frozen cheese is the best and ask for the bacon milk shack. It's the best!!!

Have loved their milkshakes since I was a kid. Yum!

First time eating at an arctic circle and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed! Long line at the drive through went really fast and our food was really good! Fries were amazing, especially with the fry sauce. And prices were reasonable. Bathrooms were clean 👌 👏

Never had a bad burger here. Always hot and fresh. The shakes are amazing. I love the fact that they always remember fry sauce and napkins. Without having to ask at all. For 2 things that so many other fast food places forget. Also the employees are always nice and friendly. Keep up the good work!!

If you know you know. Not sure if they invented fry sauce but I'd like to believe they did. Lime Rickey for the win.

Food was delicious..... Staff was friendly and fast. Very rare to have this at a fast food establishment these days. Will be returning when I'm back in town.

The Taco salad was massive. Ten inches wide and two inches high. Fresh ingredients and savory meat. The tortilla bowl was fresh, light and crisp.

Great professional food service at a awesome price. Our family loves eating here.

The food was good and the staff was friendly. A few of the tables were dirty though.
