Fast Food RestaurantBurger JointAmerican RestaurantCheckers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc
As the leaders in drive-thru for over 30 years Checkers & Rally’s locations are currently open and ready to serve our guests. We can provide our guests with the additional safety of an enclosed kitchen and limited personal contact – whether you choose to drive up, order ahead online, or have our food delivered. In response to concerns around the Coronavirus we have closed the few dining rooms that exist in the Checkers & Rally’s system and are limiting the number of people on our patio and at our walk-up windows. We are reinforcing our policies, including frequent and proper handwashing, along with the proper utilization and changing of gloves as we continue to serve our guests.
Customers noted that the food is often fresh and tasty, but there are frequent complaints about cold or improperly prepared items.

Went to Checkers at 12pm Waited 35 minutes for 2 #8s Combos no pickle with two sides of cheese and a 2 Medium Diet Coke. Received the wrong order 15mins in, went back got a refund then they told me they couldn’t make my order because they were out so they gave me another refund. I ordered something else off the menu and they still messed it up. Food not fresh at all.

Service at the windows has been hit or miss in the past, due mostly to slow serving. Ordering ahead made that experience a lot better. Checkers has the best spicy chicken in fast food, hands down. It's not a great choice if you're looking for a night out but if you just need a quick bite, it remains one of my go-to options.
