21 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Herculaneum

“2/8/23 - Dairy Queen in Herculaneum, Missouri...helping in our community... Dairy Queen (90 Scenic Plaza Dr, Herculaneum, MO) Yesterday was my daughter’s 12th birthday! She chose a birthday dinner from the Herculaneum Dairy Queen (DQ) on our way to her dance class last night. We love THIS DQ! Their team is always super friendly and courteous. The food is made fresh when we order it. This location is currently under construction, but they are still open, ready to serve their tasty food, while helping our community. The Dairy Queen Herculaneum location participates in many events to give back to our Festus-area schools, residents and charities. To name just a few: @Festus Elementary PTO @Festus R-VI School District @Jefferson R-7 PTO @Herculaneum Fire Department (toy, coat and food drive) @Kade's Playground @Autumn Ridge Residences ...and more! We admire and thank you for your kindness and support. For food…my kiddos go-to favorites are their cheeseburgers, fries and a blue raspberry-flavored “freeze”…a combination of slushy ice mixed with ice cream. Our family has enjoyed DQ birthday cakes for years. My personal favorite their ice cream cake with itty-bitty Oreo pieces inside. DQ also offers dairy-free treats, DoorDash delivery, Uber Eats and rewards/special deals through their mobile app. We are thrilled to have this establishment serving our local community. This is a non-paid endorsement, inviting you to get some hot eats and cool treats at the Dairy Queen in Herculaneum. Review by Sara with MyFestus.com“

Place is pretty clean and well put together 5/5“

“I came in last night and both young men were amazing. Isaiah helped me on the register with excellent customer service and the young man in the kitchen got my food to me quick and he also was very polite. Great job ARBYS. We need more young men like these in the service industry.“

“Best White Castle I’ve had in a really long time. Very pleasant and the food was ready almost instantly and it was awesome. I don’t live close to this one but it’s my go to every time that’s how good it is. I think it’s crazy how tipping is nowadays but this crew earned it and then some. Thank you guys so much for what you do because everyone knows working in fast food is not easy by any means so thank you.“

“They would of gotten 5 stars but they were so slow and no communication skills while waiting or when we arrived.
The restaurant was messy. Trash outside and with only 1 person sitting eating inside, they should have been cleaning table and floors.
One employee had no gloves while boxing our burgers before bagging.
I did ask for new ones.
Was polite but still no communication skills. No 2nd apology. WEIRD“

“Love the chili! Fantastic service. Staff are friendly & helpful. Always busy but never a long wait. The atmosphere is the best. We love sitting outdoors & enjoying the water feature, it creates a memorable experiences.

Kid-friendliness: My granddaughter loves sitting by the waterfall and she especially likes the frog that spits water out. How fun!“

“The Burger King where I live sucks so we were hesitant to stop here, but it was right off the hwy. The food was so much better, the drive thru girl was super cool and nice, definitely not like other Burger King's that I've experienced.“

“Usually go thru drive thru, but it is quick and friendly. Only go inside when my husband needs to look the menu over to see what he wants. Staff inside is also quick and friendly. Food is good for the price, but not my first choice to go to eat.“

“Came here last night to get a much craved roast beef sandwich with horsey sauce :P i have onion allergy and the team there made sure my sandwich was perfect, as a matter of fact, they thought outside of the box (lol) and because I questioned how their fries were made (fried in same oil as onion rings) they asked me if I had an onion allergy, that is above and beyond. :) I appreciate you very much thank you.“

“Just wow...the staff goes above and beyond. The food was hot and fresh..the entire restaurant looked like it just got power washed. The staff was very helpful and friendly and respectful. I wish that I could give them 6 stars but the most Google will allow is 5...so excellent 5+outta 5 🌟 stars. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the Arnold area give a bite to eat 😋“

“Anytime we come here the guy working the drive through, I believe his name is Stevie , is always soooo awesome and kind!!! He truely deserves a raise or some kind of bonus!!“

“We just had Qdoba for the first time ever and it was amazing! Food was delicious. Restaurant was clean. All of our food was labeled with the names of each person who ordered. The portions were great too! Highly recommend!! This will be our go-to for nights we don't want to cook! Thank you!“

“The McDonald's here is better than some worse than others. In my opinion it is a rly good McDonald's most of the time. The food here is good (for being fast food) and the workers here are nice (almost all the time) I get here a lot and am almost never disappointed. They always give lots of napkins sometimes they forget sauces on the side but that's fine depending on what you are get. Their fries are rly good and so are their chicken nuggets. I come here a lot for school trips during summer school (I go voluntarily) and they are always super nice then too. Overall 7/10 😋😎🫶😊😍“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“Kristen was Awsome on the phone and In store she listens and has excellent customer service highly recommend her she is definitely educated about the business teach us how to use our app over phone and in person also accommodate our daughters special needs. That’s Huge !!!“

“Traveling through, got the double bacon cheeseburger smashburger. Got going and found my burger with no salad and if there was bacon I didn’t find it. burger was still good and the fries were fresh out of the fryer, nice and hot just like I like them.“

“Worker named “Laura” used her tips to pay for my pizza when I had no money, nothing to eat, and nowhere to go. She is truly the sweetest and a great worker. She is always willing to do anything she can to make this establishment a better place!“

“To the one who said she had no meat!!! Lmao. They have cameras and see everything!!! Someone trying to get 2 for 1!! This subway is the best . As well as their other locations, Pevely & 141 Astra way.“

“I had their honey bbq chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy and a biscuit. Everything was so fresh and delicious. Thanks KFC!!“

“the people there are so nice and they do a great job was there today and they were packed and they were on the ball and getting everyone what they needed quick and efficiently“

“The staff at this store are amazing human beings. I called for delivery, but they do not deliver to my address, they told me they would give me a discount to pick it up. I thanked them and mentioned it was my Birthday and it was a nice suprise to get a discount. When I arrived to pick up my order, the guy that brought it out said " Happy Birthday! We all chipped in and got you a Birthday cookie." I cried, the day before this, my son had 2 horrible seizures, so I was in a sad state of mind, the gesture you all made touched my heart. In a world that is sad and hurting right now, your workers showed, there is still good in the world! Thank You Papa John's Imperial Mo. YOU ROCK!! PS. The pizza and cookie was delish!!! 🍕❤🍪❤😊😭❤“
