Food: Big Buford w/large fries Burger - cold, dry, no flavor Fries - good but small serving size Service: Drive-thru; quick/friendly Ambiance: NA Overall I do not recommend - not even in a clutch. If you want a quick "good" burger, hit up McDonald's. For a GREAT burger, go to 3 Keys Brewing in Bradenton. read more

Checkers - Checkers on Cortez - Burgers Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

This is the first restaurant I've ever come to that had AI taking orders. Omg, it was a cluster! Took longer to order than it should have. Then it didn't get our full order and when we pulled to the window, there were two employees standing there looking at us even after us waving for them to come over. I'm sure they could hear us struggling with the AI system and not once did anyone intervene. Imagine calling a 1800 customer service number and the automated response comes on and it's not fully understanding what you're saying but is repeating all the opposite things you've said. Ex: burger, no onions... AI: burger EXTRA onions. Since there aren't any Checkers in Texas where we live, we wanted to make sure we got our fix. This location ruined this experience for us. Don't waste your time or money coming here. Customer service is HORRIBLE and wasn't impressed by food, at all!! read more

This location (at least) has an AI generated voice response at the drive-thru menu board. It's awful. Don't stray from basic orders or ask any detailed questions. The spicy chicken sandwich I ordered on the "2 for $4.50" menu came with the buns smashed down so it was a doughy bite. Not worth the value or the frustration of ordering. Just hire someone to take my order. Not returning. read more

Very good fries I can't dispute the other negative reviews. My interactions with the Checkers crew was short and to the point. During that time they were neither happy or rude, they just took my money and handed me my food. I prefer happy, but getting the job done is ok. They have no seating inside, but they do have some concrete tables outside, and I settled in to enjoy my Big Buford combo meal. The sandwich was pretty good, but the star of the meal were their fries, crispy and famously seasoned, as they described them on their website. They even have a burger with the fries between the bun. My one negative had to do with an inconvenient start. I drove in from behind the restaurant and not directly from Cortez, and found my only option was to go through their drive-thru. They have a few parking spots but angled for cars from Cortez. They have 2 lanes, one on the left and the other on the right, but the right lane was closed. So, I could order ok but was sitting on the wrong side of the car to reach to the window where they pass you the food. I don't know what others do, I simply got out of my car and walked up to the window to pay and get my food. While I ate, they did open that right lane, so could have just been a brief staffing thing. read more

Checkers - Big Buford - Burgers Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

Awful service, we ordered $72 worth of food from doordash and it was made, dasher went to pickup food, we waited 10 minutes and then order was cancelled, we tried again and cancelled AGAIN!! We ordered at 9 pm (its open until 2 am) and its now 10 pm, everyones hangry and we haven't received food, AT ALL. Dashers were super nice, one even messaged me to say he was second in line for pick up and then wham i get a notification that it was cancelled, I really want an answer as to why? It looks like such a fun place and it also happened to be the closest and cheapest place near us, i would've been fine if the food was awful but i didn't even get to try it, everyone is PISSED. read more

It was interesting ordering from a computerized voice but she took our order accurately and efficiently- everything came out fresh and delicious! I love checkers and hope y'all try it and do too!! Fries are the best thing ever! Enjoy! read more

Checkers - a person holding a box of fries - Burgers Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

They've turned it up since I've had my last bad experience! Great shitty food at great shifty prices! I always get the 2 doubles for 6.50 and the fully loaded fries. As soon as you reach the robot bitch, say "team member" and they will make sure you get what you want read more

Terrible, the girl on the other end taking our order kept trying to speed us up. Anything else? Anything else, three times. There was no one behind us, maybe her shift was over. Burgers were cold not the least bit warm, we didn't eat them worried about getting sick. Fries were good but I guess they guarantee them. We will not be back! read more

They're using an automated telecom system. They got the order wrong, over charged us and told us to take it up with corporate.

found a hair in my food and the food was cold terrible service as well just isn't worth the money

They really gotta start addressing the quality of the food the sandwich was soggy im sure it set under a heat lamp all day and the fries was cold I will never go back to this location again read more

Drove thru. Ordered 1 order of mozzarella sticks and 4 orders of funnel cake fries. They park us and we wait. A few minutes later they come out with the bag. My fault for not looking till I got home but all 4 orders of funnel cake fries had absolutely no powdered sugar on them. Not at all. Tried calling several times but no one answers the phone. Seriously who hands out funnel cake fries without the powdered sugar? Too far away to go back. And of course I don't have any powdered sugar at home. Beyond disappointed. read more

I have been to a few different checkers around sarasota FL. the one on cortez in Bradenton is the absolute worst place ever. rarely is my order right. there is always...ALWAYS..some type of issue. I mean it's close so I eat theee still but the waste of so much money for food that is not even your order and don't realize it until your home. the constant going around the drive thru 3 times to get my full order. i can't stand that place read more

This has to be the worst Checkers I've ever been to. It would help just to close this location! I stopped and ordered 7 Hamburgers and 5 hot dogs. As I pulled up they told me their card reader was not working. So I paid in cash. Them I was told that that would have to cook that numbers of burgers. So I pulled around to the parking lot. After 30 minutes and like 40 cars though the drive-tru someone came out with the food. I asked for some salt and catchup the girl tells me I'll have to get back in line at the drive tru. She argued with me that it took so long because I ordered so many burgers! What about the other 40 cars that got food as I sat! DON'T GO TO THIS CHECKERS EVER! read more

This one star rating is definitely a generous rating for this place. The food was good for fast food however let me tell you about how the employees like to cheat on their numbers. We ordered in drive thru the the little girl took our money at the window then asked us to back up behind the red pole saying she needed to calibrate the timer. Bull crap she was cheating on her times and then when we drove back up we heard another little brat saying why she back? Then the little girl accused us of making sure she didn't do anything to our food. I don't care how close this is to us we will never go back. read more

Serious brand damage today, I'm very disappointed. I've not had a Checkers burger in over 15 years. I am in the area visiting family and noticed this location. My wife and I decided to grab a burger tonight. The online menu is not the same as the location menu so it was an inconvenience to have to chose new items and hold up the line. We ordered a couple of burgers with everything and a medium fry. What we got was a couple of burgers with ketchup, mustard, pickles, and a few sad onion pieces. It was nothing like I remember. I gave this rating 2 stars because the fries were hot and delicious, just as I remembered them. read more

This checkers location is definitely lacking. While the food is alright, the time it takes to come out isn't. I haven't used the drive thru so i can't comment on that, but despite being the only one placing an order, it still took almost 10 minutes to get 2 sandwiches, a drink and fries. The place is also almost disgustingly dirty. There's stains all over the seats and flies swarming you as you order your food. The food, I could best describe as "eh". The fries were good, but both the hamburger and chicken sandwiches are almost flavorless. If you're really in the mood for quick, easy, and cheap fast food, then stopping at this Checker's isnt the worst place to end up at. read more

I have seen the employees making sandwiches with no gloves before. Always get the orders wrong. The menu has been updated but the food is always sloppy and greasy. Not my favorite place to get a quick bite. read more

Horrible. Food is wrong and gross. Staff has an attitude when they can't tell the difference in a burger and chicken.

Horrible customer service, rude employees !!! The girl at the drive thru window made me pay first then asked if I can reverse my car past a pole to where I'm not facing the window. Felt it was very odd, almost as If they didn't want me seeing how the food was being prepared. Although the manager was nice, I would never go there again !!! On top of all that ... the lady didn't give us any napkins! read more

Very horrible customer service and slow! Waited almost 5 minutes for the guy to give me my total and then I'd drive up to the window to give him my credit card he walks away without taking my card! I'd drove off and said heck with them! I'm definitely going to contact corporate headquarters about this! read more

This place really isn't even worth the star I'm required to put. I'm greatly disappointed in this location. I rarely ever get fast food. I decided to park and go up to the window due to how long the line was in the drive thru. I stood outside for almost 20 mins, just being looked at by every employee. Then another group of people walk up behind me, and they open the window and they placed their order. After that I left because I don't have time for that bullsh*t. Not only did every employee see me waiting outside and knocking on the window, they chose to help people who were there after me when I was waiting for 20 mins. Secondly, this place is absolutely gross, and extremely unsanitary. 0/5 from me! read more

Someone needs to do something with this location. I love checkers but come on, this stores management is poor at best.

This place is the nastiest checkers I've ever seen. The workers are rude dirty even the manager. She wants to be black so bad I don't think she even knows she is a Mexican. Worst service ever. I will never go there again. And also hire people who can hear and know how to take orders. It's not one star it's negative 8. read more

We would never go here again if my daughter didn't LOVE the chicken bites so much. Employees are rude. Every time. No personality. We paid then the girl told, not asked, us to reverse past the red pole. My husband thought it was we wouldn't see them making the food. Then the girl yells rudely "move up!" When we did I asked why she asked us to reverse. She said rude and short "for the timer." That was the only explanation. Management needs to get this under control. There is no need for all of this horrible customer service. Every single review is about how rude the employees are. Get it together! read more

Definitely the worst fast food place in Florida. Sat at the window for about 25 minutes. Watched the employees play around with each other while one of them was in regular street clothes, no uniform. Everything that we got was soggy or cold besides the fries which tasted like they had been fried in oil that was 4 days old. Ordered a chicken sandwich that was so hard it could break a window. Each sandwich barely had any condiments on it. So disappointed. Nothing was worth paying for. read more

Stopped here with my grandson who has autism i always order 1.99 chicken and fries every location we go to will separate the chicken and fries as he will not eat them together. This location was very rude and refused to do so even though we had a 47.00 order total . We will never ever go to this checkers again read more

This place needs some serious help! if 0 stars was allowed that's what you'd get. First trip took a half an hour to get some mediocre Luke warm food. 2nd trip, same half hour wait to get Luke warm food except this time we got a side of attitude from the drive thru person when I asked why it took so long. Idk if I blame it's employees or the franchise for letting it have the same shitty consistency. Also maybe try changing your oil every once in a while, your fries won't taste like burnt oil. read more

This place doesn't even deserve one star. The employees are very rude, lazy and slow. Horrible customer service and they got my order wrong 3 times even though it was only two items. They also have serious health code problems, the employees were toughing all the food with no gloves, the girl getting my order ready had her hair down. Very unprofessional at this location. I tried to give them a chance but it was a bad experience every time I went. read more
