32 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Gate City

“Best club sandwich. Thing was a beast. Substituted tomato with onion and any other restaurant will give you like 3 strands of onion, they give me 2 full slices each layer and it was phenomenal. Thick cut bacon on each layer etc. Annoyed that I've lived in Gate city for years and never bothered to stop in until the other day. And the home fries with seasoned salt in jars at the table topped off the perfection. Will definitely be returning.“

“Everyone was really friendly, store was very clean and best of all the blast from the past Peg Legs, batter dipped chicken wings (Testing) were crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Like a old friend from my childhood I had forgot existed. Hope they make it back to all stores.“

“I needed 28 meals for out of town workers helping to restore power in the area. I called and was assisted by Jared who was patient and courteous. The food was ready when promised and all 28 of our employees LOVED the food. I, personally, don’t care for fast food burgers, but this one was incredible. Everyone in our group loved the dinner so much they requested the same for lunch the very next day. 10/10 could not recommend this location and burger enough.“

“I was so happy about the Taco Bell when I moved to Gate City. Coming from Jacksonville, Florida. I'm used to the Taco Bell employees punching my taco before they hand it to me. And it can be kind of frustrating knowing that whole damn crew smokes weed but not a single one of them can roll a f'ing burrito. 🙄 But the one here is awesome! A whole year and I haven't got a single messed up order or a taco that was beat to shit. I can't begin to tell you how wonderful it is. Thank you! You guys are the shit! 💙👊🏻“

“Hardees is a good place for some breakfast its okay for lunch/dinner, but I am not a big burger person and prefer their chicken if I do get lunch/dinner

Parking: Most have enough parking for 15-25 cars

Kid-friendliness: All the staff I have brought my daughter around have been super nice to her. She even had one buy her a milkshake for her once

Wheelchair accessibility: Every hardees I have been to has ramps to get to the entrance“

“My family and I travel a lot, and this was, by far, the best McDonalds we have eaten at. They were very organized and efficient! You could tell they actually cared about the customer. Great food and great experience.“

“i love this sandwhich spot, they have great service which you dont find at very many places anymore. and the food tastes great and when i called about my uber eats order being over an hour late i called subway and one of the workers assisted me until i figured out what was wrong, definitely will visit again“

“The staff at this location is amazing! My daughter and I eat here every time she has to come to Kingsport for the doctor and we always look forward to it!“

“try not to tell too many people, it's hard enough to get a double big pal.“

“Best burger & fries around! 😋“

“I've ate burgers in different chains all across America and in other countries as well. No one comes close to the Big Pal. It always has been and always will be the best burger you can eat. The only caveat is, make sure you order it with pickles (once you try it, you can never get it without them).“

“Every time we are in Kingsport we make it a point to stop here for a burger. The food is delicious and this location evokes a bit of nostalgia that I enjoy. It takes me back to simpler times. A drive up burger stand with great food and outdoor seating, it just doesn't get any better.“

“This little family owned greasy spoon is a local treasure. Excellent ice cream treats and good quality freshly made menu items. Typical of a classic mid-century drive-in the relaxed atmosphere is like a walk back in time. Make no mistake-you will not leave there with an empty stomach. The ladies at the counter are always friendly and helpful. They are patient with small kids that can't decide their ice-cream fate. Great variety. Ask about their Hamburger Steak specials.“

“It was amazing!!!!!!!!!!! Their food was really good my best friend Michala works there too! :)“

“Way back in 1970’s ATL , a friend told Mr.Cathy: we have to drive all the way to
Hapeville to get a decent chicken sandwich! That’s about an hour drive , before 285 was built and we were in North Sandy springs! Perimeter mall has a NEW Chick Fil -A store wow! From then on I was hooked. 50 years later, I’m back in the south , so happy to find you here? In TN.❤️🩷💛“

“I hope your the one between what used to be whites/priceless/iga foods and some gas station and a mom and pops restaurant combo.

I never write good reviews when I wasn't personally there.But i've been sick for like three days now.I can't keep food or water down.Nothing

Now 4/10/26
The large cheddar round add fry salt
And side of sauce?
Exceptional
2 days not able to get out of bed and the hack was not cold meds, but some saucy cheddar rounds with (light)fry salt.

Never change and never ever become like the exit 7 pals..
I would assume with tye quality of your food the inside of your store doesn't look like the inside of a 1 night stand hotel lol ♡“

“Jessie always provides great customer service“

“Genuinely the best service from any Arby's I've ever been to. I don't know how they managed to find such talented, intelligent and kind employees. Food is fresh and everyone there actually seems to like their job, so rare in today's world.“

“I wasn't really a fan of Arby's UNTIL I took my wife to this location, been a regular stop ever since. Today's experience was exceptional, place was packed and this team was efficient and accurate, like always but with constant flow dinning in and drive through packed they worked like a well oiled machine! Very impressive and food was perfect. Thanks to the entire staff. Great Job!“

“Ordered the new strawberry froze slush no strawberry flavor to it husband ordered diet coke with cherry flavor very bland waste of money“

“We had an online order a little over a week ago and we were short a few pieces of chicken tenders, so I called the Mount Carmel, TN store and I asked for the manager. The manager, Preston Williams came on the phone and I explained that we were short a few pieces of the chicken and he was very nice and apologized for the inconvenience and said that he would like to make it right and said that he would like to give me free of charge more chicken and I said thank you that would be great. We went back last night and he was there and I told him who I was and he was very nice and said he would make us our chicken. Well we were eating our food that we had ordered and he brings us our fresh made chicken and again apologized and asked if everything was okay, it was great. The people at this Hardee's are really sweet people from the counter person to the manager. The place was very clean also. We will definitely be back in to eat and say hello. Thanks Hardee's.“

“Food was cold. Chicken was dry and the breading was hard. Slaw tasted like it was just cabbage and mayo. Of course we were there close to closing time so maybe that was why. Normally the chicken is awesome. The tea was really good as always.“

“Best service!!!! Affordable for families💕“

“Went to our table and waited for our food. They brought my husbands sub out. He ate it and I was still waiting for mine. The manager noticed and asked if I had received my sandwich yet. I said no. The young man that took our order apologized and said he had forgot to make mine. 🫤“

“Yes it's fast food fried fish, but we have made this a stop for the past three years during ball tournaments since most of the LJS locations are closed back home. The place has always been clean when we visit and the staff always friendly. You don't find that at many locations anymore.“

“I go here literally all the time they know me by my name and order. Staff is incredibly friendly and the food is usually pretty good! Only downside is sometimes they are very busy so it can be a pain to wait, but otherwise I love this place.“

“I stopped by Burger King this morning through the drive-thru for a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit and some French toast sticks, and it was a great start to the day. The food was exactly what I hoped—hot, fresh, and satisfying.

What really makes this location stand out is the morning manager—they’re absolutely the best part of the early morning experience. Friendly, efficient, and welcoming, they make the drive-thru run smoothly and put a smile on your face before your first cup of coffee.

If you’re looking for a quick breakfast with excellent service, this Burger King is definitely worth a stop.“

“The most spectacular team and top level service. Seriously blown away at how consistently excellent these folks are. I do not eat at Jersey Mike’s outside of this location if at all possible. Because that’s how good they are. Thank you very much to the staff!“

“Inside of the BP on John B. Dennis nearest to Interstate 26. Fresh food the way you like it, friendly service from Subway and BP customer service representatives, and two tables for your convenience if you come at the right times ( in between regular mealtimes).“

“The Blizzards we bought were so good and cold. It really hit the spot on these hot days we have been having lately. Our food was nice and hot & fresh and tasted so great. I went thru the drive thru when I bought these meals to-go. I was in a bit of a hurry that day, but they had my order out the window to me in a flash and had me on my way fast. I was very pleased. Especially when my order was correct too. I didn't have to wait long at all for it at all. I love Dairy Queen's food, their ice cream sundaes, and all of their milk shakes. Great job Dairy Queen!!“
