22 Best Fast Food Restaurants in North Charleston

“We’ve always loved Raising Canes Chicken! We need to get some locations in the Columbia SC area so we don’t have to drive over an hour to get it. 😂 The chicken fingers are always fresh and crispy and fries are very tasty too. They’ve got the good ice. Sweet tea is delicious.“

“I promise my burger was absolutely delicious, this picture doesn't make it justice lol The employees were nice and patient, I went with 2 girls and it was the first time there so they didn't know what to order. The guy was very patient ♥️“

“Very friendly staff! I was pleasantly greeted and placed my order without any issues. Restaurant looked clean, tidy and organized. My fresh food was prepared without delay and met Five Guy's standard. The little fries cup is enough for two people.

Well-worth a visit!“

“Had pizza, one with gluten friendly crust, other with traditional crust. The gluten friendly crust was firm and held the cheese, sauce, and toppings well. The ability to customize (unlimited) toppings was welcome. My son chose cucumber as one topping and really liked it. We also got a customized mixed greens salad as well as iced tea. Food was delicious, service was courteous and efficient, and the restaurant was clean and well maintained. The music was alternative, which I particularly like. We are visiting for a skating competition, but I would definitely return if in the area.“

“Whoever was putting together the chicken breakfast burritos on 12/11/25, you made the world's most perfect burrito and the hashbrowns were incredible. Like, it made my morning better! Lol This location, of all the lowcountry locations is BY FAR the very best anyway.“

“What can I say but, Wow! The food is always so amazing and the ladies taking your orders are very courteous and polite. The cost of the is so reasonable and you get a lot for it also. Highly recommend eating here if you have not try it yet. Hours are short but totally worth it.“

“Very very Good, my boyfriend and I had the chorizo and chicken empanadas with the spicy chimichurri sauce. Everything was delicious and the empanadas were soft and flaky. 10/10 would recommend.“

“I drove 15 minutes just to get Arbys. I was literally the only customer in the 20 minutes I was there. I ordered a Double beef and cheddar and asked for 4-5 Horsey sauces. I was pulled up to wait for fries. When I got home there were 0 sauces and the sandwich was tiny. Not even a single. On top of that, the fries were cold sooo...why was I even pulled forward. I waited for 16 minutes after paying. I can see why yall don't have any customers. Yall need to go ahead and shut it down.“

“This is the best location!!! The staff is always great and they even KNOW my order!“

“I almost always have a positive experience with the food at cookout. Occasionally, I might be slightly disappointed in the amount of fries or the amount of cheese bites, but I’m sure there’s a method to how they add portions and I’m always satisfied.
The only reason for dinging them would be that I often feel the pressure of being rushed. It’s always very challenging for me to hear at their drive-up speaker. I would say nearly most every time, the person on the other side of the speaker speaks very quickly, and I think they’re usually trying to do too many things at one time like hand food out the window while taking your order at the same time because they often ask you to repeat yourself. So that’s a little frustrating but even with that I still give Cook out positive reviews for my experience. I wish they would see this message and maybe train their folks a little better to slow down, speak clearly, and don’t make your customer feel pressured or rushed. We all know that fast food is fast food for a reason but clear communication is super important.“

“Culver's is a great food and beverage destination. Food is at the level you would expect at a sit down restaurant, yet the prices are less than McDonald's. This particular location seems to have issues with staffing, undoubtedly due to there being so many employers in the area competing over the same labor pool. Cleanliness of the space and speed of getting your order is not like what you would expect from a Culver's, but this is one of the best fast food options at Tanger.“

“Just stopped by for a burger and tots. So professional and great service. Also they have decorated for Halloween and they did a great job. You can tell they took time and it is very tasteful. Great job Sonic on University Blvd. Happy Halloween 🎃!!!“

“The food was great and atmosphere clean. Great place for a date or family meal.“

“Chucktown Nutrition is my favorite place to be, not only do I get to drink healthy shakes and teas but I get to hangout with great people! Haleigh and her crew are awesome and the customers are as well! I love the vibe!! 💙“

“This place is not much to look at. But. The shrimp Po boy sub (add cheese) is killer. I know this is a chain. Ive only been to Charleston twice, but after the 1st time I couldn't stop thinking about this sammich. Just had it again and once more: 10/10. Friends eating other menu items here were less enthusiastic, but everyone loved this po boy. Fries were good too.“

“I am a loyal chic fil a customer! I mean they are top notch compared to other fast food places and honestly the only place I eat when grabbing something quick. The professionalism, politeness, and quick service keeps this customer happy. However…..I do have a complaint. I wanted to start this off with a positive because while I never leave reviews, I feel like this complaint needs to be noted. The delivery app needs a serious update. How can I make a lunch order at 8:30AM with no issues and it be delivered when it says it will be, but if I make one at 9:30AM the lunch items are not available until 10:10?? Please make it make sense. I had to wait around until 10:10 to place a lunch order and was told by the app it would be delivered within 30 minutes at the most. Ok not an issue because my kids lunch isn’t until 11:00, so plenty of time to get there. It took an hour for this food to be delivered and the location is 5 minutes from there. That’s insane to me. When I called to speak to someone to see why my food was not in route yet, it took 6 times for someone to finally pick up the phone and Stacy assured me at 10:51 the food was on the way. Well 5 minutes later I get a text telling me the food was in route and John did not get there until 11:15. I get having to bs to keep customers from getting irate with you on the phone but obviously my order was forgotten about and this is a serious flaw in the app that needs to be addressed.“

“Great burgers, great selection of sides and the best sweet tea by far!“

“Deshaun greeted us at the window this evening and he was SOOOO wonderful. He was kind, efficient and clear. The fact that the weather had so many places closed today and Deshaun and his crew were here for their patrons is both impressive and appreciated. Keep being great, guys! ❤️✌🏻🙏🏻“

“Deep fried turkey club great...the turkey cobbler good, too, but prefer the club without the cranberry sauce.
Id like to see fried turkey sandwich all year, but believe its temporary.
Love their crinkle fries

Friendly, fast service“

“I ordered on UberEats and asked for my okra to be made with a bit of crunch but a soft inside. Most places burn or undercook it when I ask for that, but not here. They made the perfect okra, small crunch on the outside with a gooey inside. Absolutely, hands down, best okra I've had in years. I haven't even looked at the rest of my order, it doesn't matter to me, just this lovely, perfect okra.“

“What is the point of placing and paying for your order online if you have to stand in line when you get there with everyone who is ordering in the store. Would it not make sense to be able to go straight to the pickup counter? That’s what every other food business does. Super annoying and will make sure I don’t go back. The whole reason for placing the order online is so you can stop by quickly and pickup....,not stand in line for an additional 10 minutes for the lunch rush.“

“Today, I tried the Hook and Ladder. It was so delicious. The bread crust was crusty outside and soft inside. Cooked to perfection. Everything was so fresh. We did not have to wait long on our orders. Customer service was excellent.“
