Quick and friendly service. Clean place. No complaints from our crew. Drive thru moving quickly too. Nice selection of grilled items too.

This restaurant was busy. Full of family and kids. The help was doing a good job taking care of the customers. The food was the stand DQ. Reasonable service. Reasonable price. Reasonable taste. Especially if you have kids read more

The ice cream machine works. They do not give Puppers cups. The ice cream itself is good and they do have one outdoor trashcan

It's a busy Sat evening around 5:15p and the dining room closed at 4p and the whole place closed at 5p "due to staff issues" according to the sign. Make sure they're open if you're thinking of going here... read more

The drive thru attendant was extremely rude. The fries are hard. Would never come back. I'm surprised this place hasn't been shut down yet since it's only rated 1.5 stars. read more

This DQ is definitely not Texas approved. Their menu is mainly burgers. No tacos or steak fingers. The building is falling apart and not real clean. The staff were rude and argumentative with customers. read more

I'm from out of town and this Dairy Queen location was close to where I was currently working. So I decided to come here out of convenience. I pulled up to the drive thru speaker and waited for a good 10 minutes and still no response. After that, I drove up to pick up window. I saw two employees in the restaurant not doing anything. So I drove around and parked in the front of the building, got out of my vehicle and went to go order inside. The door was locked and the sign on the door said "Closed; Will return at 11am. It was 1pm at this time. read more

Not very clean at all. Not one worker smiled or had any manners to show. They were playing (loudly) what sounded like homemade rap music that blasted through the restaurant our entire visit. After I heard the fifth curse word in one minute, I asked them to turn it down because my daughter didn't need to hear it, and the lovely, probably high, cashier said, "Well, it looks like you're about to leave, so....." The food is subpar and the service is horrendous. I've never been pleased with the lack of cleanliness here (visited at least twice a year for YEARS now) and we will never be stopping here again. read more

I will never stop at this location. The cashier was rude. We pay your paycheck, try being nice and smile. The blizzards were half full. Half the restaurant is blocked off, so you're forced to be stuffed with other families. Shouting peoples numbers instead of using number cards like all the other DQs just shows poorly run location. This location is dated. read more

We have been in Cherokee for three days now. Eating out every day... Best meal we've had yet! Hot food, nice friendly smile's... What more could you ask for? It's really not that hard to do your job. I've been in the restaurant business all of my life if that makes me a critic. So be it‍Just do your job and nobody gets upset. So kudos to you guys for doing your job... Thank You You beat the heck out of Paul's Family Restaurant and Domino's Pizza read more

Not great. Not terrible... but not far from it. Everyone working here looks like they just lost their best friends. It is ice cream so it was not all terrible. read more

I have PTSD from coming to this Dairy Queen. Jaba the Hut was manning the counter and slurred her speech and was yelling at us for not understanding her non sense. Employees were falling asleep. The ceiling was leaking all over the place and instead of fixing the roof they put wet floor signs everywhere. Employees in the bathroom didn't wash their hands. Overall this was the worst experience of my life and it easily could have been filmed as a bad comedy show. read more

We eat at Dairy Queen all the time in different places. As soon as we walked in you could tell the workers didn't want to be there and the messed up lots of orders and could have cared less. read more

10/10 would recommend especially during the summer so you can get a cold, nice blizzard

Have been to the Dairy Queen in Cherokee, NC twice. The first time was to get a blizzard. They said it was near closing time and they didn't want to get the machinery dirty and would not make a blizzard. The second time occurred after we downloaded the DQ app on our phone. The DQ app gave us a free blizzard, the proprietor stated they do not honor coupons. There will never be a third time. read more

While visiting the lovely small town of Cherokee we stopped in for ice cream when we saw the DQ sign. Lots of staff to serve customers. They were efficient but not actually friendly. Orders were taken quickly and items arrived quickly and to our delight tasted just like they do back home. However, this place needs a deep clean. Tables and floors were sticky. Outdoor seating area needs a good pressure washing. The restrooms were some of the filthiest we have ever seen during our travels. read more

Was visiting Cherokee from out of town and wanted a quick lunch before heading out. We decided to stop at DQ and grab some burgers. The staff seemed nice enough but were not wearing gloves and their hands did not seem clean when touching food! The burgers themselves tasted fine but I was definitely grossed out by the hygiene of the staff read more

Unbelievable. I only go to Dairy Queen for ice cream. The minute I stepped in the door I seemed to be a bother. It got worse from there. The blond gal who waited on me was hostile at me for smiling and ordering a blizzard. I have never seen such ugly customer service in my life. This was like the shop of horrors. There was an older woman who I assumed was the manager based on the bantering that was going on and she was rude to the drive up customers. I did not get the blizzard I had ordered and my gut feeling told me she did this on purpose. My gut also told me to get the hell out of there. read more

Terrible food handling. All safe food handling forgotten. They put everything together with their dirty hands. Wait 20 min for your fast food to arrive is not fast food. Food was being thrown around from one basket to another. Never eat here shitty service. read more

Service station dirty bathrooms, dirty floors/tables, and, just do not care if you get your order or not attitude. Really sad because I like going here in the past. Must be a change ad management problem.... The cashier was very friendly is the only positive thing I can say. read more

Bad service. Rude employee. Hot fudge and chocolate dip is watered down!!!! I will have to go to another one to redeem this chain. SMH!! The absolute worst DQ ever. Leaks in the ceiling and it was hot inside. read more

I just moved here to Cherokee. Wanting a blast from DQ at around 6:30. My boyfriend goes out in the rain to get me one and he goes on the drive through and no one answers so he goes inside and has to yell more than twice to get anyone attention. They then turn around and say they are closed. What store closes at 6:30 durning dinner hours. So he calls me and I call the store and the lady who answered the phone was very rude and did not seem like she wanted to answer any of my questions. I don't know how much longer I will keep trying to go here. read more

DQ Grill & Chill Restaurant - the menu on the iphone - Fast Food Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

Worst DQ we have ever been. Restrooms were discusting. There were specks of mold in the ketchup and when we asked for extra sauce for our nuggets they wanted to charge for it. Never have i had to pay for extra sauce. read more

So, the quintessential blizzard can be inverted and still remain in its container. The melty, sloppy mess served to me was the worst blizzard ever. They should have given me a straw instead of a spoon! Two stars. One for actually being a dairy queen, the second for having a restroom. If a machine is broken, don't pretend. Just fix it or send me away. read more

Never heard of a DQ that doesn't have chocolate ice cream! Seriously people! Really hard to find chocolate ice cream in this small town.

New building, but I couldnt believe how hard the building was used inside. It looked worn out for all the use. The line was long but the food was prepared quick and right. Surprised for show. Will go back. read more

If you are looking to get hepatitis A B or C this is the place for you. It is filthy. The restrooms are horrible, there were buckets throughout the restaurant catching water from the ceiling, there were homeless folks hanging out in the lobby, and the employees were not friendly. I'm sure at one time, when this town was booming, this was a nice restaurant, but now not so much. I think DQ headquarters forgot about this location. If you absolutely have to stop here, don't forget your germ-x. read more

Dirty, slow and not anything you would expect from a Dairy Queen. If you're thinking how can they mess this up, trust me. They can. Go elsewhere. read more

Well, we stopped here a few days ago wanting some ice cream. I got the usual cone, I always love simple vanilla ice cream on a cone. My wife ordered a hot fudge sundae. The girl said they were out of hot fudge and had been out of it since yesterday. What? No hot fudge at a Dairy Queen? My wife then said in that case she'd have nothing and we walked out. read more

It was a very slow evening. A couple of people inside and a couple of people in the drive-thru. Both the dining area and behind the counter were filthy. The people behind the counter were running around like it was the noon rush. There were several hand written signs hanging from the menu with "rules" such as you can't get sauce with french fries, whatever that means. I placed my order (a blizzard) and gave him my money. He didn't say a word about when I'd get my order so I assumed he'd make it and hand it to me. While I was waiting, someone came in and complained that their order was wrong. They frantically made him another sundae or whatever it was. They made orders for several other people. I was finally handed my blizzard. I took it out to my car. There was no way I was eating it in that place. They mixed the wrong ingredient in my blizzard. I thought about taking it back in and complaining but instead, drove away, never to return. read more

A waste of time. Terrible service, dirty place, not friendly at all. Not going into details just don't waste your time.

The cheese burger tasted as if it had been sitting and reheated. The fries were cold. It doesn't even resemble the same sandwich taste, style, or texture as a typical Dairy Queen. My 2 friends had the same experience with their meals. The women's restroom smelled and was out of toilet paper, and another stall was out of order. Two words about this place: Don't go. read more

Nasty and stinky. Cashier register guy would take a payment and then grab food with his dirty hands. The food tasted terrible too !

Stopped here two days ago for a quick bite and ice cream before heading back to Gatlinburg, TN. Not much to pick from in town, but how could you go wrong with Dairy Queen right!!? Started with ordering 3 chili hot dogs for my husband and I. We were with another couple traveling. We were surprised with how long we had to wait (wasn't busy). We had the opportunity to watch the people working. Two of them were watching us, watching them. Awkward, so we went to use the bathrooms, not the cleanest. On top of it all, took bite of hot dog and looked back down at my sandwich while chewing and quickly spit it out (and tried not to vomit). The roll was covered in green mold! It I had thought more about it, I should've taken a picture. I took it up to the counter and said, "the roll to my hot dog is covered in mold, how did the person making this, not see the mold??". All I got was a "sorry, I will make you another one". I believe this person was the manager on duty. Believe me, I inspected the heck before eating. I would've thought I would've gotten my dessert free, but no. I hate making a spectacle or a scene. But what happened to customer service? This place is covered in tourists and with social media being what it is, no place is safe from a bad review. In addition the couple we were with got 1 blizzard free, both of their blizzards could not be turned upside down, too runny. Oh and no chocolate ice cream available. read more

Had 4 blizzards after dinner at another place. They tasted great and were served quickly. Place was clean just and old place.
