Krekel's Custard Mt. Zion

It's krekels. Great burgers and shakes. Had a long line at the drive thru but they handled it rather quickly.

Best burger in town. Pepper jack cheese bites also phenomenal.

Update as of August 2024: I was in Decatur again, so made my customary visit to Krekel’s. Food and service, as always, were excellent. BUT!! A revelation for me. Tried the hot fudge milkshake. It was an epiphany. Simply delightful. How did I not know this wonder existed!?? A treat for the ages. Update as of July 2024: Was back in Decatur and made my trek to Krekel’s. Still the best hamburgers in the Midwest. My daughter (who considers herself a connoisseur) declared them the best she’s had anywhere (and she’s travelled a fair bit). Shakes and ice cream are excellent, and I really like their fries. Staff always takes good care of us and is super nice to my elderly parents. Original Review: Best hamburgers in the Midwest. Shakes, ice cream are awesome, too. Expect to wait during busy times. It’s worth it. This is not fine dining. It’s a burger joint of the old style. Classically delicious. I eat here every time I come to Decatur. Worth the trip!

Can’t stop won’t stop. Karen has been serving me since I was two. I’ll always come back

I only had the lemon ice cream. Very refreshing on a hot summer day. The line for the drive through was backed up and it was busy inside...all signs of a good place!
