Dining room closed = no sale I'll go elsewhere Who wants to eat in their car? Maybe post a sign so people know what to expect before getting out of the car to rattle locked doors read more

Slow service. Not enough employees. Joking around and in no rush. Waited 30 minutes for food. What a shame. read more

Wendy's - Long line didn't even move. - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

I was in the restaurant on Wednesday, January 21, 2026 at approximately 3:00pm. Four workers were talking among themselves and not 1 of them acknowledged me. This was my favorite restaurant. I left and went across the street to McDonald's. Other customers were dining-in and 1 customer had just received his food. So it wasn't that the dining room was closed. read more

If I could give this place 0 starts I would. First thing I noticed was the floor. It was wet and sticky. Next thing I noticed is the frigid temperature shortly met after you damn near stick to the floor. After waiting 20 minutes to order we got our order number. They then took 30 minutes to call the number infront of us then skipped out number. After they called the next number we decided to talk to them. They gave us a sorry response after finally giving us are damn near cold food. read more

I went to this restaurant today and I was going to to go inside to place my order when the employee told me I needed to go to the window. When I got to the window I seen two people go inside and place an order and received their order before I did. read more

Wish we'd checked on Yelp before eating here. I'd assumed all Wendy's had the same standards, but this one had some real problems. I certainly won't count on Wendy's as a reliable brand again. To start with, they wouldn't take credit cards and would only accept the exact change on orders. There was no sign on the door or any other indication of this until you got ready to pay. The floor was slick thanks to a leaking drink machine, and nobody seemed to be addressing that while we were there. The bathrooms were filthy with overflowing trash cans and non-operating hand driers. There was a young person sleeping at one of the tables the whole time we were there, and everyone seemed to accept that as normal. read more

So dirty, such a loooong wait, just plain gross in there. Drink machine out of almost all flavors.

It's like they're working with one person. And that person is taking the orders and preparing the food. I've seen two employees in the parking lot. I wonder if that's affecting order times. There were 2 cars in front of me in line. They took car1's order & the car pulled up. Time passes and they take car2's order and they pull up. Time passes and they take my order and I pull up. Car1 is gone from the window and the line behind me is much longer. By the time I get to the window, my food still isn't ready. So as I wait, I look inside and 3 employees. Two of them were on their cell phones. I think I was pretty close on assuming that only one person was working. The food was average. Service poor read more

Wendy's - the menus on the side of the building - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

This Wendy's is an absolute disaster and a disgrace to fast food. I stood at the counter for SIX minutes with no employees coming to assist me--no other customers inside or in the drive-thru. What were they doing? A staff meeting in Narnia? The place was FILTHY. Bathrooms were like something out of a horror movie--just nastiness everywhere you look. The counters and drink station? Even worse. Speaking of drinks, I tried to fix myself one, and the machine spurted on me. You mean to tell me no one noticed the machine was broken? Doubtful. This was by far the most DISGUSTING, careless, and pathetic excuse for a restaurant I've ever visited. Zero stars. Negative stars if I could. Save yourself the headache and eat literally anywhere else. read more

Stopped by the drive-through, ordered 2 burgers, 1 French fry, 1 frosty, 1 coke and 1 sweet tea. No frosty, no coke, no sweet tea available so just order Dr Pepper. Both burgers came out wrong, but they were disgusting so threw them away. Fries okay but paid $16 for small fry and Dr Pepper what a joke I will never be back. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. When we first walked in the manager was yelling at someone in the parking lot spewing foul language. The person at the register was rude also and telling the person next to her bagging the items to mind their business when he was trying to help a customer. It took 20 min from the time I walked up to the counter to place my order. Several people walked out and there was a lot of talking about the condition of the store and the rude staff throughout. Went to leave and use the bathroom and wanted to throw ups if the condition of the kitchen was anything like the bathroom it was a mess. read more

Stopped here on the way through Orangeburg for a quick lunch. Read the other reviews. Enough said. Slow, inefficient service. Probably the worst Wendy's I've ever been in. read more

Walked in for a quick bite to eat because we where traveling they said they where only doing door dash orders which we could barely understand her because she was eating and talking so then some friends went to the bathroom and there where poopy diapers in the trash smelled like pee and there was no toilet paper and when we walked out we noticed a busted door window Please don't come read more

Wendy's - Broken glass - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

Listen to the other reviews, and if you don't see the reviews in time before you show up, I'm sorry! The employees forget they're working there, the buns are hard and the tables are dirty. Go to Bojangles up the street, this place needs to be demolished. read more

Clueless staff, loooong drive through line so I went inside. Still order took 20 mins and I finally had to ask what happened to it. Staff were poorly dressed and scratching their head and face and neck. Out of forks! Wish I had read the other reviews before stopping here....ugh! read more

I was out with my sister and niece, we decided we wanted to try the strawberry frosty. It was sooo good. Nice and creamy. We all loved it. I frequent this Wendy's for my kids as well. The staff is always nice and food good. The kids love it. read more

Wendy's - Drive thru - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

Waiting 1/2 hour in the restaurant for a basic food order on a Sunday after 1 pm. Drive through line not moving, wrapped around the building. Staff inside looks tired and like zombies, not sure what is going on here. Franchise owner should consider changes in staffing or add more for rush hours (not sure if 1:30 is a peak time) read more

Stopped here to get a bite to eat on our way home from the lake. We went through the drive thru. The employees we encountered were polite and professional. The line seemed to move quick as well. The order was correct and error free. The food was also hot and the fries were fresh. I did feel that the burger needed to be seasoned better though. They also needed to add more salt on the fries. 3 stars because it was average in my opinion. Nothing really stood out to get them higher than average. I would stop here again. read more

Ordered our food and there were no other customers inside or at the drive through. Took around 20-30 minutes to get our order which was for 5 people, workers just stand around(talking to each other and not working). Dining room was pretty gross and so were bathrooms. Don't go here. read more

It took 30 minutes and my order was still wrong . I ate the fries and trashed the rest. don't waste your time or money.

Don't waste your time here! Long Lines, *******CASH******Yep CASH, Mmmmmmmm YEP THATS RIGHT CASH ONLY and its 2023 BEEN THIS WAY FOR MONTHS...........WTTF? Lasy ass employees that are skimming the drawer! Corporate needs to intervene! This place sucks! Used to be fabulous but has turned out a dive chain! Fire Management and clean house! FIX THIS LOCATION OR TEAR IT THE HELL DOWN! read more

absolutely the most DISGUSTING facility I have ever entered. urine in the women's bathroom floor, soda all over the lobby and the smell of weed. DO NOT STOP HERE. read more

Lack of leadership. Trash overflowing, grill broken, gross bathroom, long lines, bad food and employees who just don't care. Don't stop here! read more

terrible service. We sat in the drive thru for 40 minutes before getting our food with no explanation. when we got our order it was not correct and things were forgotten. they had to ask us multiple times what we ordered and still didn't get it right. customer service 0/10. read more

Literally the WORST Wendy's I've ever been to in my entire life. I read the previous reviews and figured ok, maybe they were having a bad day ... boy was I fooled. First, I sat there for about 13 minutes just to order and finally get my food in the drive thru. I timed it for proof. Re-freaking-diculous. Once I finally got my food, I was able to get moving because I'm traveling and needed to get back on the highway. Big mistake. Should have checked the food before I left. After waiting thirteen minutes for my food, the chicken nuggets were cold. Really? I waited all this time just to get 10 COLD chicken nuggets? The fries. Slightly warm. You mean to tell me I waited thirteen minutes for fries too, and they're not even fresh out of the fryer? The drive thru line was pretty heavy, so I just knew that since it appeared to be a tiny bit crowded, they were going to have to keep cooking food and my food was surely going to be piping, mouth burning, hot. Nope. The line was just long because they are beyond slow inside. I had already been on the highway and I was pretty thirsty too. My sweet tea... tasted like straight water with a few drops of sweet tea in it for flavor. I can't even say the tea was watered down, because it wasn't. The water had tea in it for flavor. I was and still am beyond pissed because this is totally unacceptable. If you can eat somewhere else, do that. You'll be glad you did. read more

Wendy's - This is how long I was in the drive thru. - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

Our order disappeared from the queue and it took quite a while for the staff to remake our order. The most mind-boggling thing was there were two or three managers meeting in the far corner watching the 'busy' front counter commending the shift manager for a slammed couple of hours. The disconnect!!! Customers weren't being efficiently served, they had long wait times due to incompetent, uncaring, overworked, undertrained employees. read more

Extremely inefficient, rude, slow. Workers unable to prioritize effectively (register person kept going out to clean dining room rather than fill the dozens of open orders of people waiting). Rude response by a worker when I asked about my order because my name had come off the screen. We waited 15 minutes for our food to come up. My son works at Wendy's. Never been to one that was so inefficient and poor. read more

This Wendy's tried a little. I've been to worse but this wasn't the best. They got our order mostly right and was cheap. When I went to the bathroom there was toilet paper all over the floor and the box that holds the toilet paper was open and a whole roll was on the floor. read more

Wendy's - Judge this for yourself - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

SHITTY! No one in line ordered maple bacon sandwich but DIDNT get BACON never will go again

Abysmal wait for drive through service. No apology or explanation offered. Go anywhere else.

On my way back to Charleston. Stopped at this Wendy's- my brother was craving a Taco salad, I order a #4 combo. No one could figure out the taco salad, it took 20 minutes inside waiting for one. My cheese wasn't melted, the burger cold. We just came from the dr... dont stop here...it is the worst fast food place ever!!! read more

I went to school in Orangeburg and visited this location frequently. Never had a bad experience until I came back for graduation and stopped for a DRINK. There was a sign that appeared to be old on the drive thru monitor that read "cash only". I decided to ask if the sign was still accurate because.... Not a lot of people carry cash anymore. Instead of just answering yes or no, the young lady at the drive thru got extremely rude with me and said "YES IF THE SIGN IS STILL THERE THEN WE ARE STILL ONLY TAKING CASH". Now granted, I'm sure she gets that question all the time... but if the sign says something as inconvenient as "cash only"... best believe you're going to get questions. So I went inside, ordered my drink from a nice and respectful employee and asked for the manager. He was almost not shocked that I complained about the young lady... same for the young lady that took my order. Fast food is a difficult business. I understand, but if you are unable to be patient with customers... maybe you should try another field. Customer service is everything to me... and many others. You never know what blessing you could miss when you are rude and nasty to people. Do better. Hire better. God bless. read more

I don't know if this is normal or unusual, but this was the longest line I've ever encountered at a Wendy's....early afternoon on a Sunday and the line was almost out the door. Food was standard and good but in hindsight not worth the wait. Hopefully this experience was a fluke. read more

If I could give no stars I would, this place is gross, the floors were extremely sticky where my girlfriends flip flops would barely stay on her feet. Took long enough for someone re realize we were standing at the front counter. Then there was no greeting, place reminded me of the funeral home when my grandfather died. After I got my food, and two drink I said "excuse me" give times to the lady at the drink machine, 2 feet away. She decided she just wanted to ignore me. I like Wendy's but y'all should really send someone in this location to evaluate the upkeep and the customer service at this location. read more

Pretty bad Wendy's compared to the chain. Handicapped women's bath stall was locked (!)...hand dryer didn't work. Messy bathroom. Staff said the h/c bath stall, "Must have locked by itself." Judging by the aroma, I think not! I need a handicap toilet (2 hips and a knee operation)...no excuse for that!!! I would avoid this Wendy's until they clean up their act... read more

Slow service if you have big crowds please reconsider. On April 1st at 12:12pm it was very slack and unorganized employees, serveral guest left because the line was so long. A outhouse makes the bathroom look good. They was out of Katchup and napkins. I had to goto the bathroom to get paper towels for my wife to use. If you have small kids with the long wait I would think twice. The foresty machine was down the employees gave me room temperature fries. This Wendy is off I-26 exit 145 in Orangeburg SC. The tables was nasty employees handling cups by the rim and not around the base. read more

Slow, unenthusiastic, lack luster and sub par service. Orders were mixed up, given out slowly and taken in a "I don't wanna be here" way. All while workers hung around and seemed to care very little about moving with urgency. A simple smile and "thanks for waiting" would help. read more

Feel like the previous two reviews were written while I was still standing in line. Took 20 minutes for 4 employees to figure out ONE tray of food. read more

Wendy's - Still true - Fast Food Near Me - Orangeburg, South Carolina

Unorganized and slow. The food is good, but all the employees are running around trying to get things prepared. There should be an employee at each station so the line will speed up and service will not be as slow. read more

They were very nice. It was around 3-4 so they weren't busy so my food came out really quick. The food was good.
