Al’s French Frys, Burlington, 10/18/22

from the street – 1251 Williston Road, South Burlington, VT., 05403

Al’s French Frys was started in 1946 by Al and Genevieve Rusterholz and then purchased by brothers Bill and Lee Bissonette in 1983.  They have made some additions but still serve the same great fries that made the place famous.  Lee has now retired but Bill and his son continue with the business today.  It started as a french fry stand at various fairs around Vermont.  Now they serve burgers, hotdogs, seafood, sandwiches and fried chicken.  In addition outside they had a soft-serve window.  It was a large place with lots of stainless steel, tile, and ordering lines.  We were only there to try the frys.  They were as good as advertised.  Good potato flavor fried to a good crisp exterior available in various quantities.  Sorry, I can’t speak to the other options but the frys are worth stopping for – and take note of how they spell it.
