Sat outside since we had our pups with us. Both of us had a burger and it was so good! Our waitress was so sweet, brought water for the dogs and very helpful. Neat little place if passing through like we were!

Wow, what an unexpected experience. The service was great from our server Jen. And the food took us by surprise! Fried Green Tomato Napolean (appetizer) is a must try, and the burgers are actually cooked to order, large, and very flavorful. This place is a definite repeat.

This is a Guy Fiery recommendation?!?I can make better burgers at home.The Caesar salad came to the table without dressing.Our foursome was disappointed to say the least.

Pawleys got off to a bad start. They were out of 3 out of 4 items (turned out to be 2) we ordered. I was thinking this is going to be a bad review. But, the chicken sandwich and Hailey's service saved the review. They also managed to find onion rings that I asked for instead of fries, although I was surprised it was 4 smallish onion rings considering there is an upcharge.

It was around 3:30, 2 adults 2 kids. We were 1 of 5 tables and I can’t believe the level of service we received for it being slow. They were out of so many things on the menu, went through two orders before I chose something they actually had. Beer list was the same and the server was unable to tell us what replacements they had, wound up ordering an iced tea and it arrived with no ice?? Appetizer came with no napkins, silverware or plates. When I asked for plates, they never came. We had to use napkins as plates. My salad included the onions and bleu cheese I asked to be left off but was missing the other veggies/fruit it should of had, kids burger was the side of a silver dollar in an adult size bun, fries were coated in thick salt and wilted. Looking through the reviews, I can see this wasn’t an “off” experience either. For a $70 lunch, I at least expect plates and ice in my drink.

My second visit, doubt I'll go back. Understaffed causing slow service. How do you serve fresh brewed tea without ice? Burger I ordered said it had Frank's Onion Ring...did not taste any Franks.Others in party had items or sauces missing as well. Chicken wrap had overcooked fried chicken tenders.Nothing like my first visit a few years ago. They have some work to do!

Was in town, had to order some Fried Pickles to go. Somebody in the kitchen saw my hot red head wife pick them up and exclaimed "GOD DAMN!!" Hope you enjoyed the view, cause she was just as tasty as the pickles you sent her home with, Thanks! (to be clear, we got a good laugh from it on the ride home <3)

Where do I start? Burger was perfect! Wings were big, crunchy, and fairly priced. You can tell they make their own fries. Service was spectacular, and the atmosphere was great. Loved that they seat the doggies on the patio and have bowls set up for them as well as treats. I’d give them a 6th star if I

The server was friendly and attentive even though she was busy. The burgers were okay, but the fries were greasy, limp, and room temperature on a Saturday afternoon at 1230. It might have just been an off day, but I don't think I'll make a return trip.

Went around 12/9 for lunch, wasn't too busy and our meals did not take long. Very broad options on the menu and spacious seating. Our waiter was good and was attentive when it came to drink refills and checking in on us. The highest price meal in our party was 16 dollars but good portions of food and the burgers are very nicely sized as well.Parking: Parking behind the restaurant has plenty of space but can be difficult during busier hours

I almost always stop by Pawleys Front Porch when I pass through Columbia and my most recent visit was the best yet! I like to sit outside and Brittany, the bartender, was a shining light throughout my lunch, always promptly refilling my drink and doing it with a smile on her face. My chicken wrap delicious (I'm trying to be more healthy or I would have gotten one of their famous burgers). The manager didn't seem interested in anything going on, he appeared kinda out of it but the restaurant seemed to run like a well oiled machine without him!

Worst burger I’ve ever had and this is not an exaggeration. Frozen meat that was served raw. Not worth the hour wait and poor service. Mind you there were only 2 other tables at the time. Avoid this
