Best burger in town!!! My family and I love the spicy burgers and sweet potato fries! If we are going out for burgers, we are going to Higher Ground! read more

Great smoke flavor on the burgers and they have a lot of other food items to complement the burgers. Cold beer and other options like wraps and chicken. read more

The food and the service are always top notch. I was there recently for lunch with a friend and even though it was busy, we were not rushed to leave after we finished and paid. read more

The best burgers in town. We dine in and do takeouts all the time, always excellent food and service.

Always good food and good service. I do wish they'd bring back some of their test kitchen burgers. I was extremely fond of their Sweet Home Alabama burger. read more

Found this place on our recent trip and now wish it wasn't so far away. I highly recommend the flips because they were amazing! I had the Buffalo ranch and my friend had the Greek. We ended up splitting them and a side of fries which was perfect. The service was excellent! They didn't have physical buckets for our beer but our waitress made sure we never had to wait. They had a cute outdoor dining area. If we lived closer we would definitely go back. read more

This is one of our favorite and most often visited restaurants. We have never been disappointed by anything we've ordered. The nachos, fried pickles, Higher Ground Flip, and Strawberry Spinach salad are what we order most often, but their burgers never disappoint either. They have a great selection of desserts too if you manage to save room for it! When the weather permits, grab a seat on their Astro turf covered patio and take advantage of their putting green or let the kiddos play in the kid friendly play area. read more

Out on a Summer Roadtrip, on our last leg, Asheville, NC to Charleston, SC. Decided to stop and take lunch! We yelped this place and oh my goodness! We took a wrong direction...thanks gps glitch and a failed attempt of national lampoons vaca air lift over the railroad tracks...attempting to get to "higher ground", we arrived! Everything is made from scratch; burgers and sauces. With a party of 9, we covered the menu! - char-Nobyl burger- perfect amount of spice - crispy chicken sandwich- my daughter ate it all! Hands down everyone was happy!!! read more

Good service great food! Love local spots!! Lots of burger options and you can have them all as grilled chicken sandwiches. read more

I saw the billboard on I26 while traveling to NC. It was amazing. Chili cheese fries were awesome. Burgers were juicy and flavorful. I actually ordered another one to go. I would go back in a heartbeat. Amazing food and the servers were outstanding. One of the best burgers I have ever had. read more

Great place for a burger and their desserts are homemade! Not ample seating for big groups but great seating for families of 4 to 6. Service here has always been good and pretty quick most days. read more

Super cute! It has an outdoor area for your pet . Hanna your waitress was super friendly. All the meal options look incredible.

What a great lunch place! The burgers were fantastic, they have gluten sensitive items. Our waitress has a wheat allergy so she knows what I can eat! She was really knowledgeable and sweet. The decor is fun and entertaining. Very family friendly! We will be back, even with the drive from Blythwood. read more

Excellent place for family enjoyment. Great food! Locally owned and operated with a family who cares for the community. read more

Stopped by while driving through the area! Heard great things about It and the food didn't disappoint. Great food and atmosphere. Cleanliness was awesome! Service was great although they may be short staffed at the moment. Have patience because their a great group of people! I had the downsized char burger and cheese! It was just the right amount of food for me! read more

The food, service and ambience is beyond amazing every time. The staff is friendly and the food is on point

Came down for the holidays saw this place on Yelp with some great ratings so decided to stop in. NOT DISAPPOINTED AT ALL!!!!! Perfectly cooked burgers, mine rare, others in my party up to well done. The flavors are amazing, absolutely recommend the hush puppies!!!! Great service, there is not an opportunity to be had here, they exceeded all expectations. This will be my new stop every time I come to visit family! read more

Attention Travelers! We were looking for a local spot to take a break from our travel back from the beach. This spot is maybe 10 minutes off I-26. Not only will we highly recommend the stop, we will stop next time. Delicious fresh food and our server, Alana was delightful. Based on other Yelp reviewers, we tried the Burgers and Flips. The surprise for me were the grilled vegetables. Cooked and seasoned to perfection. We also tried the bacon, cheddar fries which was smothered with fresh cooked bacon. Take a break from your journey, stop here and enjoy. It is worth it. read more

The service was exceptional. Good hamburgers. The beer selection was limited though; and no dark beers of note. Avoid the shrimp dinner though: small size. read more

If you believe it takes happy people to make happy food, here are happy people. Brie and basil fries are worth the trip. You have never ordered a hamburger like this. I'm sure you could get them with just lettuce and tomato, but why not go for the pineapple and jalapeno? They are growing, and going through some growing pain with the facility and the volume of people. Try to go in and off our, and bring your dog, and sit outside. read more

Higher Ground Char House - Brie cheese and basil french fries - Burgers Near Me - Chapin, South Carolina

We have been eating here for years. The service and food are always good. The burgers are tasty but my personal favorite is the Greek chicken flip. read more

The quality of the food is very consistent! Always have specials that are quite creative!

Saw a Billboard for this restaurant located in Chaplin and it looked really good. I then looked at it 4.5 stars on Yelp and decided it was worth trying even though it a little out of the way. I am so glad we made this decision. Many people from the north on their way to Myrtle Beach may pass very close to the city of Chapin. The burgers are char grilled to perfection. The Flip Chicken is awesome. Baked beans and veggies are as good as you will ever eat. I recommend the bacon and cheese fries for an appetizer and possible onion rings with your sandwich. There was just no room for me to try a dessert. This restaurant also has a nice craft beer and wine selection. To get a score of 5 the service must also be excellent. The restaurant management here must understand the importance of being successful at every touch point. Our young waitress Allanah (sp?) Took care of our needs and was very nice and peppy! This little casual burger joint was my favorite place to eat even though we had eaten a lot of high end expensive restaurants while on vacation. While we were able to get seated very quickly at 1:00 PM during the week, I here it is a much longer wait around dinner time. read more

Amazing! I first heard of this place when I lived on the other side of town but I would pass billboards extolling the virtues of their burgers. The photo on the billboard looked delicious! Then again, a McDonald's burger looks almost edible when you see it on a billboard too! I just moved over to the area and now had an excuse to try this place as nothing sounded good in our refrigerator and my wife and I were both too tired to cook. I'm very picky and skeptical when it comes to burgers because I have been burned many times before. I looked online and the pictures and reviews seem to reaffirm the billboard. I ordered food to carry out for my entire family. The kids loved the burgers and chicken tenders, but then again they like Bojangles and Sonic, so it's not like they are reviewing for Michelin's Guide, but they also have tried a number of exotic foods so I definitely would take their thoughts in a consideration. The fried green tomatoes are fantastic! They had a very fresh taste but need the fried breading with just the right amount of crunch. I didn't even dip them into any sauce. I had the char burger with cheese and added bacon. I don't know where they get their bacon, but it is fantastic! I broke off a small piece-there was plenty of bacon on the burger so I wasn't missing it-so my wife can try it and she loved it too. She regrets that she didn't have that on her burger. She had the FernGully and she's normally quiet but wouldn't shut up about how good it tasted. I understand because I normally don't shut up, but I barely said anything because I was too busy enjoying the burger! The burger is quite juicy and very flavorful with a fantastic texture. It's definitely not greasy but it's very juicy. The produce is phenomenal! The lettuce is crisp, as was the tomato, and it felt filling yet didn't feel like it was weighing me down. I ordered the onion rings for my side, which is what I do anytime they are available at the restaurants from which I order. They were tasty, crispy, and the onion had a slight crunch to it. They were very good. I snagged some of my wife's french fries because, well, they were there and she owed me from previous dining experiences in which she ate my fries. They were really good too! I don't impress easily, especially when it comes to hamburgers. I will absolutely add this to my regular list! read more

Great service! Lots of different burgers to try out and yummy types of loaded fries! And the hush puppies are so delicious. Best part is the outdoor seating area which is super kid friendly! read more

It's like having a fresh made burger from home! Came in for dinner, family of 4. Service was great, there were quite a few customers dining there but the food came out quick. The food we ordered was more than just a 5 star rating!! We had also tried the App sampler fried pickles, fried mushrooms, and fried onion rings. The fry was perfect. Most fried pickles I've tried are drowning in breading, these were battered just right and we were able to enjoy the actual pickles, mushrooms, onions. Next time we're in town, this is the place we will be back to grab a bite! I only took 1 picture of my burger, the Creaky Rocker when it came out. read more

Re : Customer Service Host(ess) . . I asked to see a Menu to place a ToGo Order while in Waiting Area which I didn't receive . . Someone came in after me, was lead to the Bar . . my request was absolutely ignored . . So I Left . Outside the Food smelled good BUT I guess I'll NEVER Know How It Tasted read more

We started with the appetizer sampler. It consisted of fried mushrooms, pickles and onion rings. It was fried to perfection. The pickles tasted great, the onion rings tasty and the mushrooms were the best I've eaten. We both ordered the Creaky Rocker burger with fries and chips. It was juicy, sloppy and tasty. They were cooked to perfection. The waitress was friendly and very attentive. It had a nice, friendly atmosphere with plenty of room for privacy. This was our first visit and we plan to return. read more

I got the bean burger and it was so delicious! I had to ask my sister if it was actually meat because it was so flavorful, literally the best non meat burger I've ever had! I would have posted a photo but it was so good I ate it all. The burger was the creaky rocker. Pimento cheese sounds weird right? Nope, it was bomb. Topped with a fried green tomato the service was excellent, staff was extremely kind. 10/10 recommend! We got seated quickly and it's a dimly lit place, warm and inviting. read more

Great food and service . We enjoy it every time we visit. Staff is very friendly and make you feel at home. Would recommend the Fern Gully.
