Queue up the Beacon Burger : two patties with coleslaw , mayonnaise , lettuce, and tomato . Use the code word ‘A-Plenty’ to get your burger buried in fries and onion rings .

Jeff Easler

Great place for groups. More food than you can typically eat. The Beacon is a landmark and a "must visit" place in South Carolina .

Rebecca

Awesome place.. Atmosphere is what makes it so great.. Treated like family.. Great food.. Come prepared to eat!

Yolanda Young

You gotta love this place! The FdA would never certify the food but its still good!!!

Phyllis Smith

The food was the bomb, everything on Diners, Drive-in’s and Dives that they said about this place is true.

WannaSee ItAll

The Bacon Double Cheeseburger was good and I only could eat half till I got full. The only downfall was the bread was a bit dry. The lemonade was better than the sweet tea . The A-Plenty is a overkill.

Kevin Lane

Went here after getting turned away at Ike's. Good service & great food. Always very welcoming.

Richard Pruitt

Get the Slice-a-Plenty heavy on the Red. It is out of this world. And try the Peach Cobbler .

April Jordan

Best hush puppies I've ever had!

Wanna See It All

Make sure you are prepare to order when you walk up to the counter, the double bacon cheeseburger A-Plenty was an overload of food. Very good but the bun was kinda dry. Sweet tea not as special Read more

The Beacon Burgeer A-Plenty ROCKS!!! (rings and fries included)

Malik Richardson

As a Spartanburg native, I only come here once a year for my annual colon cleansing.

Debbie Griffith Brown

This place needs an infusion of customers & some major help in the quality of their food. I've waited years to try this Spartanburg icon - very disappointed. Old time visitor went and said it was sad

Ted Ferguson

Don't bother coming here. The food is just cheap frozen stuff covered with grease and the "famous" ordering system is just a gimmick that causes them to screw up your order and treat you rudely.

Mae Cothran

It's scary when you're in line because everyone is yelling at you

Kenneth Higgins

baqcon chili cheese burger a plenty.... the best

Yolanda Young

Double chili cheese aplenty!!! Enough said.

Wade Harper

Beacon is a southern fried food mecca. If you yuppies can't handle then stay away! That way there is "a plenty" more for the rest of us!

Russ Moore
