Gene’s Fine Foods Has Been Around Since 1968 Serving Delicious Burgers And More In South Carolina

When it comes to game-changing foodie experiences in South Carolina, you won't find another eatery that's quite like Gene's Fine Food in Union. It may be a bit off the beaten path, but traveling to out of the way places is what makes a road trip... well, a road trip. So put on your adventure shoes and hit the road to Gene's. Here's what you'll find when you get there:

Firstly, Gene's Fine Food has been around for more than 50 years. And secondly, when you roll up to the parking lot to find yourself standing beneath a very cool sign and next to a huge chicken on top of a vintage truck... you'll know you've arrived someplace shabby and chic.

While Gene's serves up a mean burger (and you definitely want to try one while you're here), there are many items on the menu. So many, you'll have a hard time deciding.

From fried chicken (the best in town!) to seafood platters, a land ans sea plate, chicken livers, hot wings, and more, Gene's Fine Food lives up to it name time and time again.

Watching your lovely figure? Why not stick with a veggie plate? Or you could go with the chef salad, side salad, or taco salad! You can't go wrong at Gene's.

Sides include baked potatoes, French fries, and onion rings.

And there's plenty of room inside the restaurant to spread out and dine comfortably.

Just don't forget to save room for dessert!

Or to snap a selfie underneath that famous road sign and next to that famous chicken on top of the vintage truck!
