Reviews for Checkers in Lincoln Park, MI
It hurts me to write this review. We love Checkers! But I have to share this experience. My father-in-law loves the Big Buford... hamburger. And so do I, for that matter. My wife likes a simple checkers burger. And of course the world's famous fries! So forour meal, including my father-in-law, we ordered two big Buford combos large, and my wife got a single rally Burger combo large.She also ordered a loaded of fries to try. When we got to my father-in-law's house, we discovered how disappointing the burgerswere. My Big Buford didn't have that famous rallies/checker flavor. I had two overcooked patties with some basic condiments. Ihad no lettuce or tomato, or mayo. Maybe I got someone else's burger? My wife's checker burger was so bad that she couldn't eatmore than one or two bites. My father-in-law got the new Smokey bacon BBQ, Big Buford. He enjoyed his sandwich, but he's 84 anddoesn't complain much about anything! The fries this evening were lukewarm and greasy. They tasted like they were cooked invery old oil. That made the loaded fries unremarkable. I understand that we're in a recession, and labor is a challenge. But wespent almost $40 at a fast food joint for three people to eat burgers and fries. We will try them again in a little while, I'mnot giving up on my Big Buford! Read more
Picking up door dash orders and was told don?t drive in to the window but to drive in the wrong way to pick up order so your... drivers side window is by the restaurant window. And when the guy handing me the food would not lean out I had to almost get inthe passenger seat to get the bags the. He started to shout at me for grabbing the bags and when he went to hand me the drinksin a carry he kept pulling them back. Very rude and unprofessional Read more
The drive thru is tricky. Its a horseshoe type turn and you need room to back up. The food was blah and the building was dirty... looking and the people inside were not too friendly. I only went because a family member requested it. I myself will not go backto this location. I will and did visit the one on Fort St before and the restaurant was cleaner and the staff was happy to waiton you Read more
Can be a bit of a pain with the layout, they often request you loop the building rather than having use of both drive thru... lanes. If the lines long enough you can get stuck waiting for an opening to get out doing it that way. They also have no dinein but outside seating is available. Read more
Their chicken tenders meal and seasoned fries were really good!I'd definately eat there again if I ever return to Michigan.But... keep in mind their is no indoor dining just tables outside. Read more
Service & food was excellent ???????? New spot every time I visit ???? Back in town, fresh like always"YEAZZIR"?????????????????
Aside from getting to pay at one drive thru then get your food at the other side of another window, it was decent. Manager was... very cordial and apologized for the wait. With the shortage of workers during this crazy year it is understood. Restaurantworkers do not get the respect and appreciation they deserve. With a lot of people making excuses not to work it is great to seeothers not sitting still. I would work out the drive thru a little better but other than that my service was top notch. Thanksyou guys! Read more
Food was good, it's been a while since having Checkers/Rallys but when I asked to substitute motz sticks for fries in a tenders... box for my daughter, I wasn't expecting the answer that the fries come in the box. It all worked out in the end. Can't reallygive any stars for the atmosphere as it's only a drive thru. Read more
