Bantam Chef

They are all so sweet and nice here. With great prices and food made with love, it’s our once a month for sure!!

Food was amazingly good! Omelets "soft" are difficult to do well and this place made a really good one - bacon, cheese and tomato. Biscuits excellent, not dry but a little crispy on the golden brown top. Grits good. Husband reported his bacon, egg, Grits, biscuit breakfast excellent. Service quick and friendly. Prices under $10 each. Was tempted to try 2 eggs with tenderloin, but glad i went for the omelet. Not a fancy or spacious place and bathroom out back, but the food definitely deserves 5 stars.

I enjoy the other Bantam Chef in Chesnee SC where I live, but this one is even better! The lady at the counter was very friendly, and I tried their "Big Mic" plate. It was WAY better than the "Mac" ever thought about being. The burger was MASSIVE, perfectly constructed (pretty to look at; perfect ratio of all toppings), and delicious. The white slaw was tasty, and the fries were absolutely divine. Seriously, some of the best fries I've had in years. I also appreciate that their iced tea is good, not watered down and no strange/foreign flavors in it. From now on, any time I'm in Marion I'll be sure to stop at this Bantam Chef. Already looking forward to the next visit!

Long wait in the drive through but the food was excellent! plus staff was very nice. Ate breakfast and it was nice hot & fresh tasting! A+++

Always busy! Eats sooooo good you can get splattered just trying to get in the parking lot! My family's love of this restaurant assures the risk is going to be habitual!

what a cute, kitschy place!!! i like it when the employees are having fun, it makes me feel like my food is made with love ♥
i got a gyro, and it didn’t fall apart while driving…that’s some wrapping skills!!

I'm in love with the turkey sandwich. Good food. Thank you 😁

Had a Big Mic and it was delicious. A good sloppy burger is always better. Friendly staff

Bantam Chef my favorite place to eat . All there food is awesome. Service is satisfying nothing more than the occasional slip up forgotten ket or napkin in bag etc. But never have I ever had a problem with food quality and taste. Keep up the awesome place of business cause without your place Marion's food is boring and old ..

First time eating here, and it was delicious. The service was excellent.

Best local burger joint in town hands down. Gyros are amazing and can't go wrong with a classic bacon cheeseburger plate. Don't get me started on breakfast best omelets and tenderloin egg and cheese sandwich on earth

We got there around lunchtime and the drive thru was really busy. We placed our order inside, and got it quicker than I expected! The food is awesome! If you haven't been there, you need to go.

Good food.Excellent staff.
Really enjoyed.

I didn't realize there was seating. Was very clean and greeted upon entering and exiting. Nice place to get a burger, grilled chicken salad or a strawberry shake, that you can eat with a spoon! Very delicious and reasonably priced

This place is one of my absolute favorites in Marion. We don't eat here often but there is a reason. It's so we don't get burnt out on all the other places in town. Cause to be honest they have always had the best burgers and toppings to go with them. Waffle fries are always so good aswell. So if you want some great food stop by here you won't be disappointed. UPDATE: Since I wrote this i say it is still the one of the best places in town. Just tried the Chicken Gyro and the beef gyro and man it was so good. Definitely will come back. 😁

5 stars easy, well staffed. Quick great affordable food. Huge burgers. If you're tired of fast food places who are too cheap to hire help, eat local. Especially here.

Wonderful food with a smile in a vintage home town atmophere. They make the best chicken Gyro that I have ever had. I drive 45 min one way to eat here and when I happen to go by the exit to Marion, my car automatically drives to the Bantam Chef. I love love love their food!

This place is incredible. Employees were great. Food was awesome. Atmosphere was classic.
I wish I lived closer so I could come back. Stopping here on my travels was a blessed experience.

Had breakfast here and it was amazing. More than got my money's worth. Great food. Fast service. It was packed at 9:30 but we didn't have to wait at all. Old building (opened in 1971)but very clean and in my experience that is where you find the best food in a small town.

What this burger missed in presentation it made up for in tasty flavor. Yum, just yum.
