Fast Food Restaurants near Candler

“Emma Coker“

“Fairly new to this area. I rarely get fast food or eat out. After a few decades in food management, I got tired of sub-par customer experience and good food. I was craving a hot Bojangles biscuit though... wanted a late breakfast.

Went here between 1130-12p. Got sausage egg and cheese biscuit combo. The wait was a bit long in drive thru, but MAN, it was so worth it once I ate the food. I am so stupidly impressed. The biscuit tasted fresh and I never usually get that after AM hours. Even the egg tasted fluffy and fresh, cheese melted.... the Bo rounds were definitely fresh.

Wanted to make sure I came on and let the company and store know. I know all too well its easy to hear only the bad stuff. The food tasting great and being fresh is well worth if drive thru gets backed up and times get a little longer.

Huge thank you to this store and team working on this shift! Ill spread the word all day long if I see this is consistent and not a one off. Great job team.

(Manager.... please find out those crew members working this shift and give them a raise!) 😊“

“Fantastic food and service! I enjoy a good home-cooked meal just as much as the next guy, but I wish my home cooking was like this. Great prices, and the interactions with these two bring it all together. Never disappointed. Truly a must try.“

“About 40 min delivery. I’ve had wings from other locations that are overcooked w/out much sauce. These were great! I had sodas not delivered, when the driver (Mendy) went back and got them for us. The Triple Treat Box was great also. 10/10“

“Mi familia y yo fuimos hoy por primera vez y tuvimos una excelente experiencia.Probamos la orden de quesa birria con arroz y frijoles charros,un burrito,el cheesecake de dulce de leche y unas ricas horchatas.Todo muy delicioso.Nos encanto el servicio al cliente y la amabilidad.Un ambiente muy cálido y familiar“

“Delivery was fast and the food was good. But the person who took our order was obviously not interested in doing his job well. Got our order wrong, and fries and chocolate milk were left out of the kids meals. It's never happened before, so I didn't check. But I will be checking from now on.“

“Awesome food , nice folks“

“This is the most authentic Mexican restaurant that i’ve been to. If you’re the average American looking to get Mexican food with “chips and dip” prior to ordering, look elsewhere. No chips or salsa was provided. They do not have sweet tea, it is only bottled or can drinks. The tacos were good. The atmosphere was mediocre. I would consider this to be a manly place rather than a family restaurant. While I wasn’t displeased with the food, I most likely will not return, at least not with my family.

Parking: Very small parking lot that is hard to access during high volume traffic.“

“It's a Chick-fil-A. Always clean. Food is always great. And served quickly. Everybody that works there is professional. This is my favorite Chick-fil-A in Asheville.

Kid-friendliness: They have a small playground inside“

“Appreciate the vegetarian delights without the mayo since I do not know its gredients

Vegetarian options: Mayo could contain eggs from tortured chickens

Dietary restrictions: Zero tortured animal products.

Kid-friendliness: Not enough children. Many crowns not being worn.“

“Solid place, had the cookout burger, fries, and onion rings. Line was long but the service was super quick and efficient getting everyone throufh the line. better than regular fast food place. my meal with a large drink and two sides was only $9.61 which is incredible given the time were in.

thanks cookout whenever i visit Asheville ill make sure to stop by if needed!

“This is a great Mod. Ordering on the app for pickup is super easy especially if I want it for lunch. I get pizza or salad depending how healthy I feel that day. Always get whatever toppings I feel like, most times it’s a weird combo so they probably think I’m crazy. But they always make it good anyway. Extremely underrated vegan pizza IMO

Edit 2025: still a great option, and even better they let you do well done or light bake“

“My go-to McDonalds. This is one of the few McDonald's whose shakes have the right amount of syrup added (last time I checked). I drink a lot of milkshakes, and most McDonald's seem to get the ratio wrong (West Asheville and Weaverville, I'm looking at you). The woman who drives the purple car is also hilarious and pleasant to talk to. Food is usually pretty fresh. I've never experienced their ice cream machine down.“

“The manger. Antonio I believe. Sonic is lucky to have such a employee. I drive past a sonics an come from across town because I know the food and service will be perfect every time. I believe her name is Macie. Also A++ employee. So Sonic. If you want those profitable stores back. Find more Antonio's and Macie's.“

“People here work so hard, but always have smiles. However it was rather hot at 88 degrees and make sure to stay out of the direct light. Maybe, they need more coverage from the sun. Emily was training someone, but they both were in the beaming heat. I usually gift tips, but I didn’t have any cash on me.“

“rush me to order when trying to place one I wanted a #1 and another meal with the order .wouldn't not let me finish instead she proceeded with cutting me off and said ok a #1 with a milk I'm lactose so why would I ask for milk she acting like she was ordering for herself i know you have to make drive thru times. Just work on having a little more patience with customers you only have selected things to drink anyway so give people time to choose . Im not going to give you a bad star .Have a wonderful bless day you rule ?“

“I have been to many fast food restaurants since the pandemic first came about and have had issues in one form or another at each and every one of them. But let me tell you about this crew at Wendy’s on Smokey park…. From the moment you walk in the door until you walk out they are the most polite and cheerful group. They acknowledged us when we came in and the cashier was stocking the condiments and cleaning the drink counter. She said I will be right with you and quickly finished up what she had started and came to take our order. The employees in the back cooking and assembling went right to work getting our order together. I made a mistake on my order and she quickly allowed me to fix it and was gracious about it and not rude like other places have been. We sat down and ate and others came in and they were just as polite. It was like a breathe of fresh air in these trying times we are in. 1000000% would recommend you eating here and seeing what I got to witness today.“

“If I could give bojangles a 10 star's I wood because it is the best place to go to for breakfast and lunch ?“

“This Bojangles location is plagued with issues. Many times especially lately, got home and found out items were missing. Went by there the other day for breakfast. The automated speaker was working, place to order went around, there was not a single person in the building. There was one light in the back of the building and no one there. Don't know what the problem is but hope they get it straightened out soon.“

“The classic chicken sandwich is super delicious. Great light crispy breading, the pickles add a nice salty touch and the bun is a little sweet. And, Cheerwine bourbon slush! Need I say more?“

“Update 1/21/2025

The clean rating is a 99.5
That is great! Also I can tell they have a great manager. Tonight we were missing one of our combos. So we drove back. It happens when you have a family of 4 and your orders are kinda big, Items sometimes get missed. The manager made sure it got taken care of quickly and made sure to encourage his employee to stay aware of the details. It just makes me trust this location. He obviously cares about accuracy and doing things right. Thank you to the manager.

The employee Paula was very nice and made sure we had exactly what we asked for and was super polite. She is the kind of person that makes you want to come back :)“

“The older lady that works the drive through k mornings (I believe her name is Susan) is an absolute delight. She is so kind every single morning. She deserves the most appreciation and recognition for consistently providing the best customer service.“

“5 topping sausage ordered, I've seen 1 topping with more sausage. RIPOFF!!!“

“A huge thank you to the gentleman that served me. It looked like he was working alone taking care of drive-thru, counter service as well as cooking and prepping. He provided exceptional service and the food was hot and fresh. A great example of equality employee. He was even kind enough to give a complimentary side of rice for the short wait. Thanks man 👍👍👍👍👍“
