One of our favorite places to go. My grandparents love fish and french fries on a Friday night. They always rave about how fresh and delicious the fish is. My favorite is the burgers! They are so delicious! Plus, they have amazing milkshakes to wash it all down. You gotta try it!! read more

Great little sports bar to get a burger and fries, chicken tenders, or wings. Staff was very nice and took good care of our party of 10. No complaints. Food was super good, but somewhat limited menu. Burgers, Chicken sandwiches, tenders, wings, and salads. read more

This place is brand new so time will tell, but it seems to be a hit. (The location on the Yelp map looks off by a few miles - it's actually a few miles further north on 81). The bird dogs are excellent, as were the fries, onion rings, and milkshakes. Our server, Kendra, was very attentive and personable - great humor. It wasn't her fault, but my order came out slightly wrong, and it was promptly corrected by what seemed to be a manager. There's lots of TVs with sports on, a bar I didn't even experience but it looks nice, and the dining room is laid out spaciously allowing open view of the whole place without losing the ability to have somewhat private conversation at your table. I really have no complaints about this place and will definitely be back. read more

The Boondocks - BBQ Bird Dogs & Onion Rings - American Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

Boondocks continues to be great ! Fish platter awesome , the fries are as good as it gets . Just flat out good eating.

Great place for food and family. The chicken dogs are great and so original. I had the southwest dog which was amazing. They have homemade potato chips and I'm a big fan of them. They have Buffalo chicken dip and it is brought to the table in a ceramic bowl that's been cooked in the oven. It's just like you would make at home. So incredibly good!! The atmosphere was great. Lots of TV's to catch your favorite game. They also have a bar serving beer and wine. I didn't notice about liquor drinks. read more

My husband and kids ate her on Friday January 15, 2021 we had ver poor service, a very long wait to receive our food. I had the mushroom Swiss burger tasted fine besides the burger was very well done and dry the bun crumbled apart all over my plate and did not exist my husband had the all American it was cooked medium but the bun also fell apart. Our teenage daughter had the bird dog said it was fine and our son had lemon pepper wings he said they were also fine. Over all we will not return. read more

This place is super good. Way better food than we thought we'd get considering we were just driving through looking for a place to stop. Great food, great staff and service. Very friendly and good for kids. read more

Wow! First visit, but won't be our last! Had burgers with homemade potato chips and onion rings. The burgers were drip down your hands and lick your fingers good! Next visit, will try the bird dogs! read more

Way to expensive for the quality of food and the service is not up to par. That's all I have to say about that

Been here before and yet again I was very impressed. Great food and great service. Daily specials add to the variety of choices. I usually don't eat bread but the homemade buns are awesome! read more

Boondocks is good their hamburgers and chicken wings are always fresh , the sides, are good also.

Food was fair very greasy onion rings. Floor also very greasy. Felt like i was skating on ice. Waitress was nothing to write home about. Probably won't be going back. read more

This is a great new restaurant in an area where we need food restaurants. I am a regular here and love the "Hot" as in spicy bird dog plate. I add grilled jalapeño and frank's hot sauce to kick it up a notch. The owners are usually there to make sure the service and food quality are excellent. I highly recommend The Boondocks. read more

Overall pretty good food and experience. The wings and fries are phenomenal. The classic bird dog, diner burger and sweet potato fries are ok. The AC was not working and it was uncomfortably hot. Also, the restroom doesn't have paper towels and seemed a little dirty. read more

Great food, great fast service. Best bird dogs and burgers you'll eat. Locally owned and operated.

Great find (thanks Yelp reviewers) 2 miles off the interstate, and a much better option than anything right on the exit. We both got "bird dogs". Onion rings were really good; fries okay. We'd definitely stop here again if passing though! read more

It was ok... we showed up on a Sunday to check them out for the first time. Their location and extended hours were enticing. We glanced over the menu and my husband decided to get the jerk wings and he asked that they be cooked a little longer because he likes his wings crispy. His side item was the homemade chips. I ordered the southern sass (most expensive burger - $12) but it had both pimento cheese and fried green tomato which I love! I got the sweet potato fries with my burger. I had asked the waitress if I could build my own burger with just the burger, pimento cheese and fried green tomato, minus the sauce, lettuce and bacon - she looked at menu and said she could make that happen if i ordered the sass, which she further clarified would be $12...not the $9 burger i was aiming to build. So I said never mind give me the burger as listed - just leave out the bun. She said ok. The burger arrived minus the bun and the "special sauces" that were listed on the menu- i guess they figured it would be too messy without the bun? Husband was ok with the wings - he just wished he had been warned they were winglets . Doubt we go back but glad we tried it. read more

Lovely staff, but food was mostly a disappointment. Meat in the burgers was tough and chewy. Sweet potato fries weren't cooked completely. And we all agreed that the water tasted like fresh dirt. It was clear and I'm sure it was safe to drink, but none of us could stomach it. The Southern Peach shake was very tasty, however. read more

Went here again last night with 7 guys from our Line crew excellent service and food again this time awesome waitress and great prices

Absolutely one of the best places we've ever been to eat. The nicest people ever! We even got here close to time for them to close- and told them we would be glad to come at a different time but they insisted we come on in! So so so nice and delicious food. We're visiting from out of town and have been here 2 times in 2 days! 5 stars for sure! read more

I really enjoyed their pimento cheese burger with a fried green tomato. Usually,when I've had this elsewhere, it's a big old sloppy mess and this was a perfect little package. Onion rings were done right too, light batter. read more

Excellent local craft beer on tap, I've had "The Sizzle" and I've had the bird dogs and it's all so great! Lots of big screen tv's and friendly staff. read more

What in the world? How on earth does this place have such great reviews? Dramatically overpriced, small portion sizes, and just average food at best. If their prices were cheaper, I would give it more stars and respect. But I had to pay something like $10 for a small, just okay, dry burger. A whole host of restaurants I would chose instead. read more

Ordered to-go through Door dash. Food was ready fast! However, no ketchup with fries, and very few chips with the queso. Food was ok.

I had the southern sass Burger I have to say it was tasty but I really don't know what all the hubbub is about. The service is great, atmosphere is better and it's just a typical burger and Bird Dog menu nothing out of the ordinary but very good and consistent food. read more

Ordered the fish basket.....it was very good, the only complaint was that for 11.00 dollars it should come with more than one side . This price is more than any decent fish and chips locally and even in Greenville also the outside appearance of the restaurant was in bad need of some TLC, weeds and high grass everywhere. read more

Great place to eat! We were traveling and always like to find those out of the way gems to eat at. Well we found one Boondocks! The Bird Dogs were great!! And the staff was so nice!!! Helped us with their menu and even came out to check on us in the parking lot since we were tailgating with our doggie. Awesome!!! We will be back!! read more

Service was ok. My potato chips came out cold and even after I told the person that brought them out, nothing was done to replace them. My wife did not receive her food until 10 minutes after we had all received ours. They said they did not see it on the ticket. REALLY! Epic fail!!! How could you not see it? The waitress said she would have it taken off our ticket. She later came back and gave me the ticket with the item still being charged. She said her manager would not let her take it off. We have been eating here regularly ever since they opened and we did not know the owner/manager treated customers so poorly. We will not be back!! It really is a shame that they have such poor customer service. We had enjoyed it until now. read more

I had a bird dog with onion rings. Service was great and so was the food. Really nice folks.

I ordered the chicken basket. It was terrible! Over cooked almost burnt. Sadly I ordered it as carry out and didn't notice until I got home.

While the food here was fairly decent for the price (not the best I've ever had but also not the worst). I was extremely disappointed in the service. I had asked about the additional cost of a menu item I was and was told it was 1/2 the cost of what I was charged. When I asked the waitress about the additional cost she told me I was correct and would get the manager to fix the problem promptly. She came back to the table and told that she was the one who had spoken incorrectly and that I would have to pay the price I was charged. The manager never once bothered to come to the table and apologize for the mistake nor did they try to make it right... read more

I ordered a burger with sauteed mushrooms and carmelized onions. Waitress asked my husband, but not me , how he would like his burger. I also ordered a side of onion rings. My overwhelming complaint is that my meal was overloaded with salt. To the point where it was inedible. The waitress took my plate away without comment. We will not be back. Oh, and they were running out of Budweiser in bottles. What restaurant runs out of Bud? read more

We visited The Boondocks last night for the first time. The place was packed as a nearby baseball game had just gotten out. We signed in and were told the wait would be about 25 minutes. 15 minutes into the wait, the super sweet hostess called us to be seated. Our server (I didn't catch her name unfortunately) promptly came over to get drink orders, even though she was visibly slammed with tables. She came back with drinks and got our food orders. We figured that we would be waiting a while for food, but it came out surprisingly fast. I had the double bird dog plate (one original and one boondock bird dog) and everything was so good. My boyfriend had never had a bird dog and was highly impressed. I'm quite a bird dog connoisseur, and I will admit that these are some of the best I've ever had... and I didn't think the original "famous" Anderson bird dog made by another local restaurant could be topped. My boyfriend got the biggest burger on the menu, with fried green tomatoes and pimento cheese included, and it was so good... and huge! We will absolutely be back. Excellent meal, excellent service, and cool little environment. read more

First timers here...hubby got a beer, i got unsweetened tea (my usual anywhere) with lemon...it had so much crushed ice i thought i was drinking a slushie!! We ordered the wings appetizer, which were good, but could have been a little more crispy...(skin was way too soft) he ordered the portabello sandwich, the mushroom was very overcooked...but the roll was fresh. I ordered the Asian salad with chicken...all it was , was extremely green romain, blue cheese crumbles(barely) and crunchy noodles and mandarins with asian bottled dressing. asian salad usually has iceberg lettuce, green onions and seeds, etc...anyway, it was ok. hubby finished before me, i was halfway thru my salad and the waitress dropped the check!!!! I WAS STILL EATING!!!! There is no worse feeling than being rushed..didn't even ask if we would like anything else!!!....as if THAT wasn't enough, the person whom i assumed to be the owner was walking around from table to table greeting everyone she knew...you would think she might stop by and greet NEW faces too...nope...completely ignored us...i asked for a box and we left...we eat out at least 3 times a week, this place is close, but never again!! read more
