Mc Hugh's Double Drive Thru — Restaurant in Charleston

I came through here on my way to see someone far out of town because I wanted something to tide me over until I ate later that day. I made a miscalculation. I saw the 1/2 lb double cheeseburger and thought "This is a local burger joint so this is gonna set me back a bit. But I'll spend the money and try it anyway." Of course, I paired it with a large fry, which I figured wouldn't be that great and probably lukewarm. Basically, I had no real hopes for a fantastic meal. Especially being a local place (there's another one in Mattoon, too). I got to the drive-thru (one of the windows, btw. There's one on each side ala Rally's) and the girl was really friendly. I was so taken back by the price (just over $9 for both items) that I accidentally handed her the wrong card. I figured this would be a minimum $15. I know at McDonald's it would've been. But this food was miles beyond any other fast food restaurant I'd visited in a long time. The burger was gigantic and the fries were spilling over into the bag. That's what I get for trusting my eyes over my stomach. The food was hot...nearly too hot to eat and I waited not more than a minute for it. If McHughs went national, Hardee's would be gone. My go-to fast food used to be Hardee's monster burger. Now I know what it'll be instead. Excellent experience. *In all my words, I forgot to mention the quality of the food. It was excellent! Definitely one of the better burger and fries...

When McHugh’s does their burgers right, it’s amazing and the best in Charleston however they’ve been going downhill these past few years. I can handle cold fries and the occasional mix up when they add something that you specifically asked not to add, no problem. My problem is when I go to eat my bacon cheeseburger and the bacon is barely cooked and still can be classified as raw, being pregnant I’m not a happy camper. My family has been customers since I was a little thing but after the second time this has happened in the past two months, I won’t go back until something changes and they get their...

McHugh's is one of those rare instances where someone took an idea that has been done a thousand times and somehow did it better. Their burgers are hands down the best, juiciest, most satisfying fast food burger I have ever had the pleasure of sinking my teeth into. They appear to put actual meat in them! Unlike some other chains I could mention... McHugh's has become a tradition for my kids and I when we come back to Charleston to visit family. Their service is always fast, fresh and hot, and the double drive through design keeps things clicking along. I'm so glad they are still around after all...
