The good. Food was served up as it was made and hot. The bread was nicely toasted and the lettuce and tomato were fresh. The bad. They say they open at 11, it’s more like when everyone decides to show up while customers wait in the parking lot. In my case, 11:15. The hamburger patties are frozen pre-made. Nothing exceptional. The fries were fair, over cooked. The ugly. The owner as others have stated is not welcoming, doesn’t smile or acknowledge, and looks at a new customer as though he might rob the bank. Waitress was very talkative with food prep people and didn’t ask about how things were until the last bite was being taken. At least she said “have a good one” when I left. Not impressed, I shall not return.

This is one of the best places I’ve ever eaten. The diner atmosphere is enjoyable and the staff are beyond friendly. The food takes center stage though. We shared and tried a few different things. The chili dog, double cheeseburger, slaw, toast, cup of gravy, fries and the cheeseburger steak with gravy. It was all phenomenal. I will go back here every time I’m in Clemson from now on (Actually going back tomorrow with friends). My only complaint is that I didn’t find this place sooner in life.

Genuinely some of the best home style food I’ve had near campus, it tasted just like home. The surroundings are really comforting and our waitress was really sweet. The food came out quickly, very hot, and well done! We love this place and will be back

Figured this would be my last visit up to Clemson for a while since my lil man graduated. I stopped in and got a lil variety to snack on. Started with a chili dog and finished with a Double Cheeseburger and onion rings. Everything was great from the food to the service. The young girl taking care of everyone was doing an outstanding job. It’s a small place so go in with patience and you will come out happy

This restaurant is truly a hidden jem!
It’s been open since the 50s and has tons of clemson memorabilia everywhere.
Nothing fancy, just great burgers! And you can’t beat the prices! Best cheeseburger I’ve had in a while. I’ll definitely be back.

IT’S CASH ONLY

I’ve driven passed this place so many times thinking, “oh I should stop”. Finally did. Got some fries and a milkshake. The fries came out HOT, and were nice and crispy. If I hadn’t asked I wouldn’t have known it was cash only as I didn’t see a sign, but did see others paying cash. The milkshake was good. Not to think or thin. Friendly staff.

It has that classic old school diner vibe. It doesn’t feel like a place out of 2023, it’s kinda nice.

They say that you haven’t been to Clemson until you’ve eaten at this classic spot at least once.

I had lunch at Mac’s Drive In in Clemson. Such a treasure! It has been in operation since 1956, making this one of the oldest running spots in Pickens County… although it may be the oldest restaurant.

This is a very small diner that has lots of Clemson memorabilia and a traditional short-order menu. The best part is that the food is very affordable, even in today’s times. Just make sure to bring cash because they don’t accept cards. But, there is an ATM machine inside for your convenience.

I got their classic cheeseburger. This is a no-frills kind of cheeseburger, kinda smash-style because the meat is really thin. Nothing artisan or fancy about it, it’s just tasty. I really loved their beer battered onion rings…crispy and HUGE!! And what’s a visit to a classic spot without a milkshake!?

If you’re a Clemson fanatic or just love visiting historical places, Mac’s Drive In is a must visit.

So this was my first experience at Macs Drive In in Pendleton, SC had the Cheeseburger Plate with fries. Went in service was quick and received my order quickly, that’s the good news. Now for the bad news. I went in saw that the Ice chest was open and exposed to the elements safety violation 1. Safety violation 2 the cook had received a new order from an elderly lady I believe she order the Hot dog plate .her Fries where finished and the cook decided to plate her fries without any gloves, BTW I didn’t see gloves anywhere, and the grill and fryer are in direct eye sight of the bar at where I was seated. When I went to pay the bill the cashier/server brought a kitten safety violation 3 into the restaurant without any hesitation. So unfortunately due to all these health violations I will not eat here again. Background of me I am a Chef and have been in the food service industry for 20+ years I have been an Executive Chef as well as lead and senior cook. I truly hope that these violations will be looked at and taken into consideration before anyone chooses to dine at Mac’s Drive In.

We moved away from the upstate some months ago and Mac’s is the one restaurant I genuinely miss. Everything else can pretty much be replicated anywhere but I have yet to fill the cheeseburger sized hole in my heart from leaving Mac’s. If door dash delivered 500 miles I would consider it.
