Feeding Families Since 1932
Myron Orbaker opened this roadside drive-in on Route 104 in 1932, and three owners later, the hand-formed burgers and real ice cream are still the main event.
A Roadside Idea That Stuck
Myron Orbaker planted his drive-in on Route 104 in Williamson, NY in 1932 — a simple bet that honest food in a good spot would keep people coming back. Ninety-plus years later, that bet still pays out.
Passed Down, Not Watered Down
Bill O'Hara took the reins in the 1960s, and the O'Hara family held on for more than sixty years. When locals Bob and Dawn Heintzelman finally took ownership, they committed to keeping everything that made it worth owning.
The Food That Built the Legend
The famous ground steaks on hard rolls are still the heart of the menu, alongside Zweigle's hot dogs, fried haddock dinners, and the signature 104 Plate. The ice cream program holds its own: hard and soft serve, sundaes, thick shakes, and old-fashioned floats.
The People Behind Every Order
The crew at Orbaker's takes the motto seriously: "Let Our Family Serve Your Family." Whether you're eating inside or grabbing something at the counter, the same friendly, red-uniformed team is there to take care of you.
Open All Year, Rain or Snow
Most classic drive-ins close for winter — Orbaker's doesn't. The dining room seats 90, the lot handles buses and boat trailers, and the kitchen keeps running because the community depends on it.
