01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Located at 2750 W Colonial Dr in Orlando, FL, Checkers offers a dynamic fast food experience that celebrates classic American favorites through a distinctively bold lens. Specializing in hand-seasoned 100% beef burgers, crispy chicken, and indulgent sandwiches, this restaurant invites guests to enjoy comforting American cuisine with a twist.

Checkers truly shines with its signature Combo Meals, such as the Big Buford® Combo—a towering double-patty burger layered with melted American cheese, crisp iceberg lettuce, ripe tomato, red onion, and tangy dill pickles. If you crave a smoky, savory flavor, the Smoky BBQ Bacon Buford Combo delivers with Swiss cheese and smoky barbecue sauce that perfectly accentuates the hand-seasoned patties. For seafood lovers, the Deep Sea Double® offers two crispy fish filets topped with American cheese and tartar sauce, served on a toasted sesame seed bun for a delightful crunch.

The menu also features crowd-pleasers under the Every Day Deals like the Double Classic Cheeseburger, which captures that nostalgic flavor with crisp lettuce, pickles, and the classic medley of ketchup, mustard, and mayo. If you’re after a more casual snack or a quick meal, these familiar tastes provide comfort without compromise.

The dining atmosphere at this Checkers location is casual and convenient, centered around a walk-up window that lends itself to a quick, on-the-go experience. This style is perfect for those who want a satisfying meal without the formalities of sit-down dining. While some guests have noted occasional wait times during busy periods, many appreciate the friendly service and freshly prepared food that arrives with vibrant flavors and hot, crispy fries—a highlight frequently praised by fans.

From the crispy, golden fries that boast a unique seasoning blend to the indulgent caramel cheesecake sundae, Checkers Orlando offers a complete fast food outing that caters well to cravings. The balance between value, speed, and flavor creates an inviting spot for locals and travelers alike looking for a hearty meal that hits all the right notes.

Despite some mixed reviews regarding service speed and window staff demeanor, many customers like MyMelanin PoPpN have found the staff to be friendly and attentive, with an evident effort to serve fresh, flavorful food. This blend of quick-service flair and flavorful offerings ensures that Checkers remains a beloved fast food option in the Orlando area.

The food is good. I had three orders and the food came out fairly quick but the person at the window seemed annoyed which is why I didn't give it 5 stars.

First time trying a checkers. I LOVE their fries. Like I'd literally die for them they're so good. The burgers aren't anything special, and I'm personally not a huge fan. But if you're getting a $4 fast food meal, it is more than fine. My bf says the chicken is really good, so if you're going I'd say to go for that. They did take quite a while to prepare the food, even though I did not order much. And that seemed to be the theme throughout the night as the drive through looked like it was moving extremely slowly.

You can rumba, hustle or waltz at checkers at their walk up window. I tried their dessert, the caramel cheesecake Sunday. It hit the spot! This is a Checkers, so with that in mind, this is a great location.

I’m sorry I read the reviews but from my experience I love how fast friendly and over all customer service was great. Yes there was a wait due because of shortage of staff but both of them ( dude with dreads and the girl look like she had pink hair ) sorry I didn’t catch their names but both were great. Thank you again for our fresh food and awesome customer service

Other than them placing cheese on my sandwich after I asked for no cheese, it was good. But I know it could have been a mistake because everyone these days ask for cheese. But please remember their are those of us that's allergic. Have a blessed day. Bishop Watts.
