I am a little biased here because I have always enjoyed Arctic circle. They are a little different from your traditional fast food hamburger joint and I like it for that.For example they had an ice cream cone that was coconut and I think it was blue raspberry flavored. We also had chicken rings instead of chicken tenders or chicken nuggets so that was fun for the kids.They use good hamburger meat that's not overly seasoned fresh buns fresh ingredients and never had an issue at all the different Arctic circles we've been to though there are only a few remaining it seems. I would love to return here when I'm back in the area.

Not bad if you're hungry but Def a little too greasy for my liking. The ice cream looked amazing but i didn't have any. For what it is, it's good and well priced. Comparable to sonic or steak and shake. I had a burger and sweet potato fries but my fries were soggy. The waffle fries were far better.

What I really appreciate about this fast food place is how friendly the employees are. Every time. They also actually check to be sure it's complete and bag it with purpose and quality in mind. The food is consistently good. Only didn't do 5 stars because I have on occasion gotten less than perfect veg toppings on my burger. Mainly the lettuce. This is an uncommon.

Fast food place where you can sit and enjoy the food while traveling along the Highway 101.Food ordered: Onion rings, oreo shake, ice cream

It really wasn't very good, and it wasn't cheap like a fast food place is this caliber should be. What really annoyed me was instead of just swiping my card and giving me a receipt with my food, they handed over a clipboard where you're expected to tip for them handing you your food through the drive-thru window. Tips are given for service, but now we are expected to tip for someone handing your food to you through the window?Best part is, that's before they've cooked your food, so it becomes the, "please don't spit in my food" bribe.Burgers were flattened, warmish but not hot, and overall, very "eh." The fish was dry.I'd recommend you just drive straight past this place, the are a lot of better food options in Newport.

Only thing I was disappointed with they don't serve criss-cut fries anymore. Not an option on the menu. Hot fudge malt was exceptional though as always. Love this place.Parking: A little small especially for bigger vehicles. Street parking is available though.

We hadn't been to an arctic circle in 25 years as they all but disappeared, but we thought we'd give it a try again. Wow! The fish and chips were as great as I remembered and my husband just loved his cheeseburger deluxe. 🍔 the fries were so good, we finished them. The staff here were so friendly and helpful. We'll be back!!Parking: No problem to park

It’s a mediocre fast food burger. I would prefer something from McDonalds, but the waffle fries and chocolate soft serve were fine. I won’t be back, but if this is your thing, go for it.

I was visiting Newport and had driven past the Artic Circle for a week. It's sign for fried fish sandwich calling me like a sea siren! I finally succumbed to it's call and I'm glad I did! This is no McFish. This was a giant halibut patty. I'm from the desert so what do I know but I thought it was great. Side of cheese curds? Yes please. If I'm back in the area again I'll find a reason to get another sandwich. And I gotta try these chicken rings.Teenagers at drive thru were polite.Might not be fair to 5 stars for Atmosphere as I ate in my car driving on the 101, but from the outside it has a look of a "small town" local joint.

Little overrated. Still can't get used to paying $30 for a fast food lunch for two. And the insult of asking for a tip at the drive thru ... out of control. The halibut sandwich was top shelf. Very good. The burger I had was unremarkable. Cross cut fries were awesome, hardy amount. The cheese curds were borderline inedible. Service was really, really slow. The restaurant was seriously under staffed. Another symptom of the current environment. All in, I'll pass next time.

After our trip to Tillamook and checking out the beach, my family and I stopped here!! It's been years since I've had Artic Circle and being able to eat here brought back happy memories. I had the #7 1/4 pound Mushroom n' Swiss with Bacon and we ordered the family size onion rings, with sides of fry sauce :)) THE BEST fry sauce hands down!! Happy to see Artic Cirle still thriving here, there are only 2 Artic Circles in Oregon, sad there isn't more, but what a great excuse to go to the coast. The Newport location has been going strong since 1968 and all the staff are so welcoming. I highly recommend you eat here, beyond amazing food, better then other fast food chains in my opinion. If I could I would eat here often, trust me, you will not be disappointed.

We drove 50 miles out of our way to get to this amazing fast food restaurant. There cheese burgers are delicious and the fries, mmm. They have a menu befitting a walk on The Boardwalk and staff who will always greet you with a smile.

The customer service and restaurant itself were great, but the food wasn't anything special. The mini corn dogs were bland, and the burgers were meh. The chicken rings were chewy and plain. The customer service was very friendly and the restaurant was clean.My spouse had AC back in her younger days and was so excited to share the experience with me, but it was such a letdown for both of us. I do not recommend it unless you're starving.

Best fast food place around. Much better quality than McDonald's & Burger King. Fries are always hot--not so with McDonald's. Staff has no problem with personalizing your order to your preferences. And staff is always pleasant. There are extra things on their menu that you don't see on their competitors' offerings, like halibut fish & chips, halibut sandwich, and gyros sandwich. They are no more expensive than McDonald's. In fact, they might be cheaper in some cases. I recently ordered a double patty burger (1/4 lb worth) and fries for $7.45. I doubt it's more at McDonald's. Mc's fries are very expensive these days. And McDonald's burgers aren't 100% beef and have toxic stuff (like bleach) in their meat. I give Artic Circle an A+ for a fast food restaurant.
