Just not a good experience. Nothing major, just the little things bothered me. The one and only gentleman cooking, you did good. The other 5 were not so good.

It was fine for what it is. Just overpriced for what you get. We don't eat fast food much.

Waited 30 minutes before I could even order. Witnessed three cars pull out of line because they were frustrated with the wait. Just go anywhere else in Iva if you can or you will leave disappointed. I’ve given this Burger King many chances, but after today, I refuse to give any more of my money to this restaurant. They need to show more care in the service and preparation of the food. Place needs to shut down to make room for another restaurant that serves enjoyable food.

I gotta say I'm pretty happy with burger. King in my hometown for the most part, but they closed at 12 and I just tried to order a milkshake and eat it. You know the anonymi service because they're dining room closes at 10 and unless you're in the vehicle, I'm not allowed to order food. I understand protocol, but I live in a very little town. All these people know me. I don't see what the big deal would be just for a milkshake. You're gonna let me down burger

I placed a mobile order at this Burger King and drove 10 minutes to pick it up, expecting a quick and convenient experience. Unfortunately, it was anything but.
When I pulled up to the drive-thru window, I was told I still had to wait in line behind other cars, use the microphone, explain that I had a pickup order, and then drive all the way through—just to be told at the window that I had to park and come inside to get it. Isn't mobile ordering supposed to be about convenience?
To top it off, we paid $1.50 for an ice cream that was barely filled. It had already melted into liquid by the time we got it. When I politely asked Dana, the general manager, if she could top it off, she rudely refused and blamed mobile order timing, offering only repeated “sorry” with no solution.
This experience showed a complete lack of basic customer service and consideration. A simple remake or topping off the ice cream would’ve been an easy fix. I won’t be returning to this location.

This is the only Burger King we know of where the staff actually still care about their jobs and taking care of customers. I mentioned this to one of the ladies there and she acknowledged they used to have similar problems, but new management really turned it around. My favorite BK in western SC!

There’s a certain bleak majesty to a Burger King in a dying American town. You know the kind—rusted pickup trucks in the lot, a lone teenager vaping by the dumpster, and a plastic playground faded by a decade of UV rays and apathy. The sign out front says “Now Hiring” but you know nobody’s coming.
You walk in and are immediately greeted by the unmistakable smell of flame-broiled regret—a chemically enhanced cologne of beef by-product, fryer oil, and mop water. The floor is sticky. It’s always sticky. Why is it sticky? No one knows. Not even the shift manager with the dead eyes and a nametag that says “Debbie.”
But you’re here. You chose this. Or rather, life made the choice for you.
You approach the counter. No line. There never is. The kid behind the register looks like he’s one bad customer away from quitting mid-shift and joining a cult. You ask for a Whopper—because when you’re at Burger King, you go full throttle. No one comes here for a grilled chicken wrap and a side salad. This is not the place for hope.
They hand you a tray with a paper liner stuck to the plastic from the weight of corporate apathy. The Whopper is wrapped in wax paper like it’s hiding something. And it is.
You unwrap it and it stares back at you—shredded lettuce bleeding into room-temp tomato slices, a sesame seed bun that’s been smashed somewhere between assembly and despair, and that infamous flame-grilled patty, charred in a way that suggests it survived a small kitchen fire. It tastes like lighter fluid and nostalgia. And ketchup. Lots of ketchup. Probably to mask the flavor of the meat—or the shame.
The fries are…fine. Not great. Not terrible. They taste like they were fried in oil that hasn’t been changed since Obama was president. Lukewarm. Slightly bendy. But they serve a purpose: a vehicle for salt. A distraction. Something to do while you try not to think about your life choices.
You sip from your drink. The soda machine is calibrated to the edge of carbonation—too flat, too sweet. But it’s cold, and it’s wet, and in this moment, that’s enough.
Around you, the place hums with the soft electric hum of failure and acceptance. A family of five stares silently at their trays like they’re mourning a loss. An old man eats a cheeseburger with the slow, methodical resignation of someone who’s seen too much and cares too little. The employees move like ghosts. No one’s in a rush. Time doesn’t move here.
But here’s the thing:
There’s a kind of strange, stubborn dignity to this place. It’s not trying to be more than it is. It’s a temple of the mediocre. A kingdom of the forgotten. And for some people in this town, it’s the only place open late. The only job that called back. The only dinner they can afford that still feels like a “meal.”
And yeah, the Whopper might be a grease-soaked monster, but it’s reliable. Predictable. You know exactly what you’re getting: a punch to the taste buds and a full belly. And in a world that constantly disappoints in unexpected ways, there’s something comforting about a Burger King that always disappoints the same way.
Final Thoughts: The King may be a joke—but in this town, he’s still royalty. And on a cold night, under fluorescent lights, when there’s nowhere else to go and nothing left in the tank… he’ll feed you. And maybe, just for a moment, that’s enough.
Long live the King.

Ordered large fries and large onion rings, ask for cup of tarter sauce for fries? Old Woman waiting on me said they never had tarter sauce, I told her They gave me a half cup many times before, she said they don't sell it that way! Since She was not going to sell me any tarter sauce for fries, I told her to forget the Order, and I walked out irritated, will not patronize burger king in Iva again! The Old Woman should be washing dishes or mopping floors, as she has a terrible disposition!
I like the people who work at this burger king! They don't have a high turnover rate, and that's a good thing ! Unfortunately, it's literally the only fast food place in town other than Subway! So you learn to like it
