“ Ordered online for drive through pickup. When I arrive a minute or two early, drive through employee was kind, pleasant, and friendly. Drove up to pickup window and order was ready. Food was hot and fresh. Great deluxe chicken sandwich meal. ”
“ The food is fast to get out and it tastes quite good. I like the waffle fries and their sauces go great with the breaded chicken nuggets. The honey bbq sauce is my favorite for sure. I've been here three times and I always have a good experience. The people are always friendly and it's a nice place to have lunch and get away from work for a little while. ”
“ Absolute 10/10 if I could give them it. The crew seem to love their job so I assume they are paid sufficiently. And they are so helpful and to the point for delivery drivers idk who handed me my order at 8:23 pm Sunday September 21st 2025 deserves to be looked at for promotion or running his own franchisee. They are a bit expensive but I gotta assume its quality much like chik-fil-a and Dave's hot chicken. They operate like a mom and pop shop, truly amazing experience ”
“ I love this PDQ location! They do a lot of fundraisers for the schools and help the community. They have delicious crispy nuggets with a choices of sauces. I tried the Korean barbecue sauce and it was amazing. They also have great kids meals and mac & cheese. A few times my kids ordered this and it wasn’t hot though. They also have really amazing milkshakes! ”
“ Julington Creek Store is great! Ian was the best. The entire team was so friendly. And my tenders, salad and strawberry shake was delicious. #IPDQ I went there again today 8/21. My crispy tenders were the best I have ever had. Ian—another great job! And…I worked at PDQ in The Villages for 2 years. Congratulations, Tony, you have a wonderful staff. I would love to be a part of it one day. ”
“ First time visit. Loved the atmosphere! Delicious chicken tenders and waffle fries. I loved the hand washing station and the “to-go” container station. So convenient! ”
“ Ok, this place is amazing! This is a step up from the Mac Donald’s that we went to that was literally terrible. But this place is raisin canes level. The sauce in my opinion is not good but i can see people enjoying it. The atmosphere was clean, but could be a bit more clean. And the service was amazing. I definitely recommend the chicken tenders. But the service was 10x better than Illinois, heck they were even walking around asking if we needed anything. Very friendly staff and Definitely a step up from the casual up in Illinois. Keep doing good! ”
