This location just reopened with an owner that is passionate about customer service. I wish I could have tasted it all, but honestly the portions are so big that I only ate my tots and packed up my burger. You need to give this location a try. The food and atmosphere were amazing. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. You will thank me. It is my new go to food spot. read more

Wayback Burgers - This is my husband and I posing with the owner Joe. Joe, we will be back. - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

First time visit. The owner came over and engaged us in pleasant conversation. Burgers were very good and fries excellent. I didn't particularly enjoy the sauce on my Cajun burger and will certainly try a different selection next time. We both agree that we will return another time. read more

Stopped by for a quick bite to eat one evening while visiting my parents and wow that was a great burger. We ordered online for pick up which was super easy to use and to customize our order. My husband got the impossible melt while I got a double cheeseburger, shared a large fry between us. Honestly could've probably shared a small fry as the portion size was huge! We also got the maple bacon milkshake (which was decent - a bit more liquidy than preferred) and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch milkshake (which was tasty!). We didn't eat inside but there were plenty of seating options and it was really well decorated inside. Kind of an updated old school diner vibes. Also plenty of parking since it's situated on the end of a strip mall. read more

So I tried this burger restaurant today. It was really good and I was pleasantly surprised. The menu was easy to read and pretty straight forward. I usually can't have cheese but the cheese on the burger didn't bother my stomach at all, all the ingredients blend together really good. Usually you can taste the ingredients separately however with this burger everything blends together. The cheese on the fries was pretty decent however it was more like a cheese wiz. One thing I did like the cheese was gooey instead of solid. That is usually my problem with cheese fries the cheese is solid. So that was a plus. I will definitely be making my "way back" lol. If you caught that. For more food content @worthydishes on instagram. read more

Wayback Burgers - THE SPICY MELT - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

Food: 5 Customer Service: 5 Location/ Parking: 5 Cleanliness: 5 This restaurant is situated in a small shopping plaza so there is no issues with parking. I've been meaning to trying this burger joint for a while, because I've noticed that they had good Google reviews. So we tried them tonight for dinner and we ordered the cheese steak sandwich ($9.50), the create your own burger ($10.25), and a large fry ($3.99). We placed an online order and went inside to pickup our order. Upon entering I was greeted by a very friendly and professional staff member. Our order wasn't ready when I arrived so I had to wait a little while. But our food came out hot and was well seasoned and plentiful. I was really impressed with the freshness of the food, yes indeed I will return! In my opinion the food was reasonable priced. Our overall dining experience was fabulous and I'm sure that we will be back in near future.  I'd highly recommend this restaurant to all!!! read more

Welcome to Lexington's BEST BURGER! The service was prompt & they've had out to go orders ready right on time. Plus, they keep the shakes in little freezer up front, until you pick up your food, so no issues with melting. My teenager loves their shakes & we all love their burgers! Even though you'll pay a bit more than a fast food place like Cookout & there's no "drive thru", because they cook your food to order, it was worth the price & having to order ahead. The mat by the front register was a little sticky, but overall, it's clean & has an old diner decor. We're made them our semi-regular, when we're in the mood for a truly great burger! read more

I ordered from here on Uber eats since it was a buy one get one deal on their Wayback classic burger. It was ok. The buns were soaking wet by the time I got it so you'd think that means the burger was juicy but it wasn't. The mushrooms are canned. The jalapeños are pickled. The cheese was mid (I had ordered pepper jack but fake Swiss cheese showed up). Considering the normal price of one burger is over $10. I don't think it's worth it and I would suggest find a better burger place. Since I did get buy one get one plus free delivery from Uber Eats I'd say it was OK. read more

I love my experience. The food was great. The waitress was super friendly and offered a great food advice. I don't know how but it has a sports bar feel as well as an upscale feel. I will definitely be back. read more

Ordered online for pickup at a specific time. Right by my job so an easy dinner for a burger craving. In an upscale plaza you'd figure it would be better than fast food or even Better than McDonald's fries I hoped and finally the fried pickles I've always wanted to try. Something told me it wasn't going to be a good experience as I walked in an empty dining room. I immediately knew that drink on the counter was waiting for me. I wanted to tell the not so friendly gal to repour because paying $4 for a coke shouldn't be flat. And it was, the fries were soggy, the pickles were soggy and the pretzel burger was soggy and flavorless too. No ketchup for my fries either. Just shove everything and go. Should've gone to McDonald's. $25 for a soggy disgusting experience. No pictures because it wasn't worth it. Never again! read more

Waaaaaayyyyyyyyyy too overpriced for these little ass patties. Seriously they are a place that is too pretentious & don't live up to the prices. Came in with the fam & it was 4 of us. Granddaughter got a kids meal. Burgers & fries for myself & the SIL, hot dog & fries. $70 bucks!! Then to top it off my shake was runny & burger greasy af! See the pic. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME & money. read more

Wayback Burgers - Greasy ass burger - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

We stopped in for a quick bite around 6:30 pm. Only a few diners inside. After ordering a classic burger and a cheese steak we waited for about 10 minutes before our food arrived. My wife enjoyed her burger. I got one bite. The beef had some flavor and was not dry or over cooked. My cheese steak was flavorful, not too salty. The bun was okay, soft and a bit chewy. Inside the bun, there was a generous amount of meat, sautéed onions, and just the right amount of whiz! For an inexpensive, casual meal, Wayback hits the spot! read more

Coming from CA In and Out are the hamburger place to be. We needed a place to grab something like that. They were great with accommodating my food allergies and their oil is soybean so no nuts to be worried about. We were able to sit down and be served our food. The food was realisable price as well as they had great options for all. Their milkshakes were so good, I might just go back to get one again. They have different options then just fries which is great when it came to variety. I would come back here for sure. read more

They have amazing burgers! Have done delivery 2xs and the burgers were super amazing. Completely accurate and burgers were still juicy and not overcooked. Fries and tater tots are also yummy! read more

Good cheese burgers. Went back for a shake and it took 15 minutes for it to get made. Tasted like chocolate milk and not a shake. Definitely not worth 6.72. read more

Had the children's hamburger with fries and a drink. It took quite a long time to get it, so I will not be returning I don't want to wait that long. The french fries were mediocre. Better at Freddy's better at McDonald's possibly better at Rush's. The burger meat was OK but overall it wasn't what I expected. For that price anyway. My diet Coke was flat and pretty tasteless. On the plus side they had a hard-working and very nice young lady who took the order and was courteous throughout. My order was take out. Of course I had to microwave it when I got to my destination. read more

Not busy. We were only the second group of customers in the place. Got the order wrong. Completely missed an entire meal (paid for it just didn't serve it). Took 20 minutes to get the meal they missed. Fried sides were all under cooked and served cold (tater tots, home fries and French fries). The sandwiches were average. Way to expensive for what you get. Not a good value in food, customer service or atmosphere. Save your money and go somewhere else. Plenty of better options in Lexington. If you are the franchise owner reading this you are going to be gone soon like other overpriced burger joints in Lexington. read more

Wayback Burgers - Verified customer. - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

The floor was very sticky. Always not a great start. The burger was soulless and devoid of taste. Overwhelming taste of mustard. Bun tasted of cardboard. I had the double Pattie with cheese. Onion rings were okay. Service was good though. read more

Damn good burgers. Huge! Flavor was outstanding!! Will go back again for sure. Everything was like home cooking.

Just Ok... Better than a fast food burger? Sure.... Would I go there again? Burgers are polarizing, I'd go to Five Guys instead, but some people hate Five Guys. The burger patty itself was decent, the bun just seamed cheap and took away from what could've been an overall decent burger. Tots and rings were cooked well, but put some salt on those things! read more

The diner is comfortable. We had a group of 6 and most of us were from out of town. I really liked the old diner black and white decor with pops of color like the blue sofa our party sat on. The shakes were good and fresh, the burgers too. The canjun tater tots were good, but the fries not so much. They were cold, and not great cold. Everyone enjoyed their burgers except my mom because she asked for no mustard. The cashier had a very hard time hearing us so they should consider turning g the music down a litt. Bonus that the bathroom smelled like candy :) read more

Super good old timey burgers and shakes. I've visited several times, the service and quality are impeccable!

ordered food at 4:49. Got updates and 3 delay notices because deliveries was on a freaking bike! At 6 pm, received last notice food was cancelled. WTH? read more

I wasn't impressed with the food and the floor was sticky. The cashier that took our order was friendly.

Dropped in today. Been wanting to try. The place was very nice. Menu has something for everyone. Lots of good pre-made burger options or build your own. Fries, tots, chips, salads and shakes. You can do beef, chicken or veggie burgers. I did the double bacon with cajun tots. The burger was good and the tots had a nice spicy kick. Overall I would go back. Good alternative to Five guys nearby. I do have one suggestion. I'd like the drink machines where you can get your own refill. read more

Wayback Burgers - Double bacon burger and cajun tots - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

55 bucks for 3 cheesy burgers 2 hot dogs and 2 drnks..... then I saw the manager hand the 3 guys money across the grill where they were cooking, they took the money put it in their wallet and pockets then proceeded to make our food without gloves. Totally gross and unsanitary. Needless to say I canceled my order and will most likely never be back. read more

DATE: 11 Feb 2019 Not bad. No greeting when I came in and the staff was a little disoriented talking about who was and were not clocked in. Once that was over my order was took. I ordered the Double Bacon Burger, fries, and a Coke (they have Coke products). They took my name and gave me my drink. The burger was good and tasty. The meat wasn't heavily seasoned which was good because you get to taste the other items on the burger. Thee fries was just ok. Bigger than Smashburgers fries. Think Burger King size fries... Nothing special about them. I wasn't checked on the whole time I sat there. One of the waitress came to straightened up the table items (ketchup, mustard, salt & pepper) and then took my empty tray for me afterwards. I went to the bathroom to check it out and it was very clean (new place so it should be right). On the way out that same waitress thanked me for coming and said come again... To be honest, this place is pretty much just like Smashburgers but cheaper prices. I paid $12.51 for what I ordered. Smashburgers would have been more. Same type of setup with the menu on the wall at the register... I will check it out again. The burger was good and looked like what was advertised. I just wish that SOMEBODY would come up with a bun that would hold all that burger goodness together without coming apart as you eat it. Let me know what your experience with this place is like... read more

Wayback Burgers - Double with bacon and fries with a Coke. - Burgers Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

First time at a Wayback Burger as we were visiting Lexington. Very clean interior and friendly gal at the counter. Opened the wrapper of my Classic Burger and it looked like clear grease had been poured inside ... I assume it was grease from a cheap mix of beef? Same with my wife's burger. Fries were crisp and good, but I have never used so many napkins and had to use the rest room afterwards to wash myself down. Will not return. read more

The food and service is always consistent. By always consistent I mean GREAT. Over the last couple of years I have tried all of their offerings. All are fabulous. Be prepared to have a fork handy for the hotdog. When they say all the way or loaded they mean it. Milkshakes are like they are supposed to be. This place not only beats all other fast food places (chain or not) but all of the casual dining such as Ruby Tuesday, Appleby's, chili's, Red Robin and etc. We love it. read more

The interior decoration is great! A nice clean place with burgers that are well done. I had one of their Veggie Burgers and it didn't disappoint. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely stop by again. read more

The food was fantastic however they need more employees to help with shakes , drinks and cashiering. I also wish they would bring the food to the table so it doesn't seem like a fast food restaurant . read more

Always great food and service. Good value. Have tried the entire menu all is great read more

Not my usual hamburger restaurant. I had a chili and cheese hot dog, fries and coffee milk shake. My wife had a standard hamburger with lettuce, tomatoes and pickle. She too had a coffee shake. The shakes lacked flavor although made with real ice cream. Hot dog was split to cook and appeared to be all beef. The layout of the restaurant was different than other similar shops. It looks as though Wayback caters to take-out although there was ample seating. For what we purchased the bill came to $27.86. A bit pricey in my opinion. read more

This restaurant is the latest example of just "another hamburger place" in my opinion. They do give some different options on what you can put on on your burger but the actual burger was nothing to write home about. The patty itself was rather small on the regular burger and I'm not certain it was even a 1/4 pound. We got a mix of fries and onion rings as a side and received Four onion rings in them. This seems to be a common thing and onions are not that expensive! We waited for a 10 minutes for our food and the restaurant was not busy at all on a Thursday night. The best thing I can say about this restaurant is that we have tried it and can mark it off of our list. read more

Average and over-priced. Slow service and can get similar, or better, elsewhere for a lesser price. Will not return.

Good service and variety of items to choose from and the price was reasonable. Thank you

Tried wayback after church for lunch. Burger was good, my daughter had the chicken tenders. She ate 2 of 4 tenders, they were very greasy and had a funny aftertaste. My wife got the steak sandwich. It was ok, but sort of bland. Fries were average. I had the fries and onion rings. Got 4 rings (not very big) and they were pretty good. Had a chocolate shake, which was good but $4. In all, our bill was $35 for 3 meals, 2 drinks, and a shake. read more
