10 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Elkins

“Best smoked BBQ around go get you some you'll be glad you did“

“I was really disappointed a while ago (a year or two? What even IS time, anyway?) when I thought they were getting rid of the place. I live in Atlanta where they’ve been systematically removing every LJS I have access to, and I feared the same was happening here. NOPE! They built it back EVEN BETTER.

I stopped by shortly after they opened one Friday, and the food was the best I’ve ever had from a LJS. I had to go back through the drive-thru to get the rest of my food, as my order had been brought to me incompletely, but after eating my meal, I’ve come to the conclusion that I would crawl on my belly through broken glass back to this location if I had to. Everything was better than I thought it could be, and I couldn’t have been happier with my order.

It’s worth noting that for the same meal, this location was the priciest of the three locations I visited on my road trip, but if the quality I experiences is the way they do things, it was well worth it.“

“I was at Hardee's yesterday afternoon and the two women that were working were doing a fantastic job l really felt really sorry for them and the man in the back was not nice to them,they did tell us it was going to be a while because they were short handed but an hour was a bit long. I heard everything, he was super loud and rude. It was all due to HIS negligence.“

“My 8 year old says your place is the best and that nothing is better than dairy queen's gravy and fries. I called to see if they served gravy and they answered quickly! When we pulled up they gave us an extra gravy! We have been in Connecticut where dairy queens there do not have gravy ??Thank you Elkins DQ!!!“

“We had a wonderful experience here, and it is entirely thanks to the staff. They were incredibly helpful and went out of their way to be accommodating.
​Everyone we interacted with was kind, patient, and genuinely happy to help. It’s rare to find such flexible and welcoming customer service these days, and it made our whole visit so easy and enjoyable.“

“Girl who was running window was very sweet,and nice to us it was around 9pm.I didn't catch her name.You guys were very professional but and right on cue even though I can tell she was exhausted.I told her my wife used to work fast food and we know it's hard work,but she did amazing and got us out of there fast.Give that girl a raise,and a pat in the back This was the date Aug 7 2025.Wish we caught her name but I'm sure you can figure it out.“

“Friendly staff, and atmosphere best night ever loved to go again“

“So normally I would never review a McDonalds because I rarely go to one and honestly unless it's a bad one aren't they pretty much all the same? But a buddy texted me and asked if I had test driven the new Big Arch burger. I told him no and that I really hadn't planned to. He said he had and it was really good. So next time I saw one I thought let me give it a spin. First of all it was just over $9 for the big arch. When she told me that I about fainted. I got it to go but then I decided I would just eat it there. I have to admit it's probably the best burger McDonald's has had since the McDLT. This is this is a big burger. I think most normal people would struggle to finish it but I hadn't eaten since the night before and probably could have gotten another one but I wouldn't spending $20 on two burgers. Also the crew here was very nice and seem to be helping each other out and there was no attitude. It was also nicely done inside which kind of shocked me. They have a nice outdoor sitting area and there was a lady sitting out there with a Dalmatian so I guess they are pet friendly.“

“There was a mixup in the time my order was to be delivered to my workplace... my fault. I thought I was placing an order for 11:30 the next morning but turns out it popped up on the restaurant's computer as "deliver now" .... but it was 10pm and obviously no one was there. Long story short, I felt terrible and wanted to somehow make it right. But no, the good people at the Elkins papa John's assured me not to worry, put the pizza in a nearby "blessing box" where hungry people can enjoy it, and promised to remake my order and deliver it again in the morning. They wouldn't take any more money and were as nice as could be. Kudos to the delivery person, manager and owner for outstanding customer service. I goofed but they just kindly took care of it. Impressive! I am definitely a loyal customer!!“

“Best KFC I have ever had!! And was so hot n fresh, gotta show up about 11:40! OMG🤌 I don't eat fastfood much, but KFC really is just friend chicken. Don't go much cuz I use peanut oil, NOT a vegetable byproduct of crude oil ... Uhg“
