14 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Athens

“Came in town from Texas to meet a relative at the restaurant. The food was good (nachos and chicken salad sandwich). Our server, Cheyenne, was awesome!“

“this place is basically a lil shack with 3 older ladies working it. we ordered burgers and hot dogs. the burger was very good it is a hand made patty very juicy. they keep kind of odd hours 1030 to 545 during the week and 1030 til 245 on Saturday. I will definitely go back if nothing else to talk to those 3 ladies and have a great burger.“

“I know Hardee's in New Ulm MN has had some issues, but I went there today and was more than impressed! there were at least four people working there and they were so friendly and the food came really fast. it was fresh and hot and delicious! I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!“

“Great for birthday party’s“

“Food tasted great! the cashiers were very nice and even complemented my car ! Great experience this evening.“

“I stopped by this cute local fast food shop during the road trip. As it was a Sunday afternoon, it was full of local people. The fish and corn tasted pretty good. The deep fried clam was a bit blend. Recommend you to check it out if you have tried it before. It's full of local vibe.“

“This is to the owner the owner/management! The employees that was working front/drive thru on Wednesday 8/5/26 at 7pm are very exceptionally respectful, friendly and has excellent customer service. I should have gotten their names, but failed to do so. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE you to look at your schedule so they both can be recognized (raises preferred) I will definitely be back because of them. To the employees.. THANK YOU for your kindness, you both are amazing and I pray you stay blessed! ~ Christina“

“every time we come to this wendy’s they ALWAYS forgets something or messes something up, like tonight it was not giving either sets of nuggets. respectfully please start checking and making sure people have what they paid for and ordered.“

“Got this trying on the way home from Florida since we wanted something besides fast food chains.Riley the cashier was so knowledgeable,polite,nice & glad we took his suggestions!!You cant beat the prices 7.99 for a double cheeseburger, 2 sides & a drink. I got cajon fries & cheese bites. The burger was so good, fries & bites awesome! They also have 40 flavors of milkshakes which I didnt get because I was stuffed. We will be hitting this place up every year. I suggest to anyone to give it a try so yummy!“

“Athens Burger 🍔 King 👑 cured my hunger, and helped complete a interesting Christmas idea! Thanks for being fun!“

“We tried the enchirito since we loved them many years ago. It was good! Difficult to eat without the SPORK. They don't even have knives for cutting it and you cannot pick it up. Also got a mini taco salad. Didn't eat the 'bowl' because of a rancid taste.“

“I just want to say something about Vickie! As I dined in for dinner I sat and just watched her interact with her co workers every single time she asked a co worker do something she always said please and thank you no matter how small the task was! Then in heard her ask a co worker to stop doing a task and when he walked her way she said thank you are appreciated!!! I work in the retail world and it just refreshing to head a person in charge thank the ones she was working with! I have always said please and thank you go along way! And when I went to talk to her she was honest and said she wasn’t always this way but she was working on it and I just thought that wqs amazing of her! Anyways gone miss Vickie“

“I travel. I make it a point to stop places and if I like the place I make it a destination stop as here. I do not travel hungry sorry. But the "small" Subway has enough sitting room, clean and busy. Prices are not my concern if I go in anywhere to eat. I don't like the price I just don't go back. Here and now is not my first time stopping there.“

“Additional update - The day after receiving a phone call from the restaurant, we stopped in for lunch. Amanda took excellent care of us. The replacement salads and egg rolls were the best we have ever had. She went out of her way to make sure we were satisfied. Thank you, Amanda. We will be back.
Update - I received a phone call from the Athens restaurant. They are giving us 2 salads and an egg roll order to replace the previous order. Excellent customer service. Rating changed to 5 stars. Thank you, Zaxby's. ******************
We ordered two Asian Sensation salads with additional egg rolls last night. It was a to-go order and it was ready when we arrived. Once home - 20 min away - we discovered that the 4 salad dressing packets and 1 dipping sauce were missing from the bag. We also had trouble biting into the egg rolls. They were very tough and obviously over cooked (nearly burned). We did not wish to drive back into town and made do with dressings and sauce we had on hand. This is very unusual for this store. I am usually very pleased with what we order from them. From now on, I will tear the bag open and check everything before leaving the store.“
