“ This is 'thee' burger experience to have. If you incarnate on earth and you want the burger, fried appetizer and cola experience this is the place to get it. I've had five guys, in and out, swensons, all good of course but Skyway has my favorite fast food burgers around, and they are even better than the dine in and sit down restaurants I've had over my lifetime. The onion rings, my favorite ever. Get a side of sky hi sauce to dip them in. In my photos you will see I got the sky hi burger with extra pickles and the half pound burger with extra pickles. Some of my bites even had a full pickle slice in them, this was a delicious meal! Ryan was my server and he was super friendly! I got a chocolate and peanut butter malt to go! You want a semi-sloppy burger that makes you feel like your taking a bite out of heaven? This is the place. It is worth the drive. ”
“ Love this place so much! Cute and retro! Great service!! Way faster then fast food like wendys and tastes a million times better! ”
“ Reminds me of an a&w and Swansons. The food was really good. Service was superb. Will definitely be back. ”
“ Authentic food and service that takes you back to the golden age of drive-ins. Our order was ready quickly and arrived hot and fresh. Juicy burgers, thick shakes and some of the best fries and fried mushrooms in the state. Take a detour from your routine and stop in even if you're not directly in the area. ”
“ Just had a Deluxe Cheeseburger. It was EXCELLENT! The radio playing while you wait was a great idea ”
“ Friday afternoon was the first time I've ever been to a Skyway and I was satisfied. The waiter was professional, polite, and prompt. I paid 13 for an Aunt Ruth's Bacon Onion Ring Burger meal with sweet potato fries and a fountain drink. This burger was bigger than a softball! And darn tasty, too. The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I was thinking about getting a milkshake but was absolutely stuffed by the time I finished the burger I'll be eating here again in the future. ”
“ Always a delight! Delicious burgers, scrumptious shakes and crunchy, yummy sides. A blast from my past, I’ve be a SkyWay lover for 50 years. ”
“ When in Akron we always stop for a Burger and Cherry Milkshake here. Really good burger, and the price is good too. It's kinda a take out, there's no seating inside, they come out to your vehicle. ”
