25 Best Burger Restaurants in Charleston

“So for the awesome 1950s vibes, amazing okra fries, and burgers it gets my vote. Plus they have gluten free buns!! However, I tried the Heat of Passion drink and didn’t even finish it. Perhaps I just chose wrong!“

“What a perfect spot for some Saturday lunch!! Our waitress was the best! Emily took great care of us even though the place was super busy!“

“I love sitting at the bar having dinner and a drink. There is always someone to talk to and the staff are awesome people.“

“Holy moley y'all. I'm so jealous of this idea. This place is literally next to Music Farm and close to a Sharehouse, Bodega, Charleston Music Hall, etc. Perfect lil spot to guarantee to sell out. I found this place on Yelp (duh) and it had 5 stars. Looked on Google and it also has 5 stars. So naturally we take a trip downtown, park a little ways away due to all the events, and walk right up to a literal window on the side of a building (walk up ordering). Service was friendly. They just sold out of the burgers (so we must go back again) but we got the spicy chicken sandwich and fries. Where has Tullys been all of my life? This chicken sandwich is so damn good. Im also somewhat of a fry snob and usually never go back to a place for the fries....but Tullys I will return for both the fries and the main course. Highly recommend if you want QUALITY fast food!! I woke up this morning thinking about the whole shebang. We knew this would happen so we have one in the fridge so I don't have to wait until they open at 5p!!“

“We ate at Heavy’s tonight and I can honestly say that I have never had better costumer service than we received tonight! Everyone in there was kind and helpful. I wish I remembered everyone’s name that we interacted with, but I will give a shout out to Chad, he went above and beyond for me and my boys. On top of the service being excellent, the burgers and fries were AMAZING! We’ll be back and we will bring more people with us!“

“Yall, this place is an insanely good hidden gem. They have AMAZING food, that tastes like its made from scratch, is cooked as fast as any fast food place (they even have a drive thru) and they are also cheaper than pretty much ANY fast food chain. It's honestly mind boggling. But on top of all of this..the staff is so sweet and amazing and they really make you feel like your the most special. This place is my new favorite restaurant and I will be eating here over and over and over again! Thanks for being awesome yall, keep up the great work! <3“

“Quaint little place with wonderful service and pleasant atmosphere. Food was delicious!!! Definitely will make the drive!!!!“

“I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! Perfect experience all around. The fried chicken sandwiches were absolutely wonderful, as were the hash browns and cheese fries. The donuts were tasty, though they could have used a little more filling. I really appreciate how fresh all of the food items were and the service was very kind and prompt. The facility was very clean and in a great location.“

“What an excellent place! We were in town for a big conference and unexpectedly decided to gather a smaller group of us (21!) for a dinner... only it was really hard to find a place to accommodate us all. Fuel came to the rescue. They were so kind and responsive, and they were able to put together a table for us all together on their outside patio. The food was AMAZING. (One in our crowd said it was her best meal in Charleston so far!) The service was outstanding. We loved our server, Paige. And the ambience was great. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“WOW! Very pleasantly surprised! The food was amazing! Daniel was the perfect host, explaining all the different foods and we were never rushed! We were visiting our son, his family and we’re from Florida. We’ll be back! I wish I could give it 10 Stars!“

“They're the best. Hands down. Always get the cuban and Mac. Each time I come, they're open day or night with smiling faces ready to welcome the next customer. Hot, delicious food right off the flat top. Im surprised they're not slammed whenever I come! Just a cute hidden gem with great food and a nice dining table set outside! The picnic benches are so cute at night lit up by the fairy lights. This place is going to do big things! ♡ thank you randalls.“

“We went twice in a weekend, once for dinner, once for brunch. The food is fabulous, they let our dogs outside in their picnic area and brought a water bowl. The staff is great. $10 carafe of mimosas is a great deal for excellent mimosas!! Definitely a new favorite for our annual Charleston trips!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options available!“

“My go to place for a burger. Always amazing deals, and the kids LOVE it. Coaches Canteen for the win every Thursday $5 kids meals!“

“Great hosts for our Sunday event. The team couldn’t have been more supportive and accommodating!!! Fantastic setting for the whole family. Tasty beers! Tons of parking. And awesome people!!“

“Best chicken wings in Charleston. I discovered this hidden gem back in September. Every Saturday they have wings as a special. I'm completely addicted to them. With these flavors to choose from: Lemon Pepper, Tradition Buffalo, Teriyaki, and Hot Honey Garlic. Wow they are so good.“

“Our server Erica was very helpful in helping us make it to our appointment with time to spare! She was very friendly and professional. Great attitude and smile. We ate yummy food and had great service. The young girl at the front desk was very sweet as well!“

“First time there and a great time was had by all. Our server, Faith, was fantastic. Burgers were awesome. The Budweiser was cool at best and actually a bit skunky. For today's priced, beer needs to be cold.“

“Edit: the owners reached out to me and quickly resolved and apologized for the experience I had. If I’m in the area in the future, I will definitely visit again because of the way it was handled.Pricey! My salad was fine but oddly salty as were the chips, my toddler was the only one who would eat the chips. They made my latte and it was so badly burnt tasting. I asked them to remake it and she told me that I must be used to super sugary lattes which is why I didn’t like it. When I kind of fought her on it, she switched to telling me that the roast they use is pretty dark which explains the bad taste. Mind you, I love a good dark roast, I make lattes at home everyday and I can tell you, the bad coffee I had was not because it was missing sugar or because it was a dark roast.“
