21 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Charleston

“Came here about 10 minutes before closing to ask if they were still open - the gentleman in the window could not have been kinder when he said “yes of course.” They do not skimp on fries or salt and the remoulade-like sauce that comes with a burger and fries is delicious. The single patty burger is more than filling. Absolutely positively will be making this a late night spot as long as they’re open. 10/10.“

“I feel as though checkers is almost a 5 star restaurant with there excellent cleanliness“

“Probably one of the best Auntie Anne’s we’ve been to in terms of friendliness and awesome customer service. The taste of the food is a given… it’s good but, some other locations we’ve been to seem like your inconveniencing them by buying their food. Not this though.“

“First time trying Chick-fil-a and was impressed at the sauces available. The Chick-fil-A sauce is very tasty and went well with the spicy chicken burger. However, the waffle fries need more seasoning in my opinion. Overall, pretty good experience and would come back 👍👍👍“

“Niko’s Gyros & Wings is delicious! Everything I’ve tried on the menu was outstanding and very tasty. We’ll definitely be eating here often! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“All was well. But everything seemed a bit too salty. And it's not the first time, nor the same location. Salt can always be added, but not extracted. Please chill out with the salty fries etc. Even the sandwich and chicken fingers.. Too much guys.“

“Delicious fresh food the way I want it! Highly recommended!“

“They are always nice and seem to keep employees for a good while. The food is always extremely nice and hot! I never end up with the wrong order. Lots of sauce is always given to the correct amount of food per order. We all know they have the best sauce !“

“It has been a while since I have had a decent experience at a McDonalds. The ghetto staff yelling and rude behavior was absent this time and that was beyond welcome. Keep it up and I will come more than a few times a year. I like the food but I DO NOT like or appreciate rude staff.“

“Great service and clean.“

“I love this location. I love that I can order my meal ahead of time in the app and drive thru the drive thru to pick it up. I always put special instructions on my orders and every single time they go above and beyond! Thanks for the extra mayo and vinegar cups I ask for every time I order!!! You guys make a mean sub 😁“

“A small but quality Chick-fil-A on The Citadel campus. This one is located within The Citadel Canteen building beside Mark Clark Hall. No, you do not have to be a cadet to go eat there as it is open to the public. The dining area is always clean, and the food always comes out great. They are usually busy serving cadets, but the line is always served quickly. Overall, it's a great little fast food restaurant.

Parking: Free parking lot just behind the building.“

“we didn't have the box or the receipt! no worries, worth it“

“Always great service and good food at the Arby’s in Village Square on Sam Rittenberg Blvd. Staff is polite and courteous, orders are correct and the dining room is clean! This is one of my most favorite area fast food restaurants.“

“My son and I visited on 4/16 just before closing time. I ordered a chicken with extra chicken and he got a chicken sandwich. He tried to use a coupon but it was from Ohio. Special thanks to the GM for comping the sandwich! We would have paid for it but that was nice of her. The dining room was clean and the cashier was friendly. And of course the food was delicious! Keep up the good work. 😎“

“Best option for vegan pizza in Charleston, in terms of value and product. We were able to get three completely different vegan pizzas for the price of one of those options at other restaurants. Plus, they don’t charge per ingredient so you can make your dream pizza without racking up the price. All three of our pizzas tasted great and were ready for pick up in 15 minutes.

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options, plus vegan cheese and vegan sausage

Dietary restrictions: Vegan cheese and vegan sausage“

“Actually a decent McDonald's. They do really good with breakfast in the morning, and they actually put some effort to be a good location. This is one of the best locations ive been to in charleston, and there so many bad ones! I actually feel comfortable coming here. I can take a wild guess for the key to their success... its not run by black pebo“

“The employees are amazing. I go there and it's like going to Waffle House. They know your usual. I give them a 10 🌟 RATING. The ladies that work there are fabulous & Fantastic Plus they are all generous and kind. Diana is 1 of th3 best employees there. She is on top of her game when I walk through the door“

“Late night getting off work. Just needed some food. The food is fast food. It was hot and did the job. But the reason im actually writing a review is because even at suck at late hour the staff was fantastic tonight. They were friendly and polite. The place was very clean outside and in. Excellent customer service. Ill be back.“

“i stopped going to Cook Out for awhile because the drive thru lines were always so long; however, over the past year or so, every time i come here the drive thru process has been blazing fast. in fact, the last 2 times i’ve been here, i don’t think i waited any longer than 5 min from getting in line to leaving with my food“
