Bojangles in South Carolina: Locations, Menu, and What to Order

Where to find Bojangles across South Carolina

Bojangles has more than 100 locations across South Carolina, concentrated in the Piedmont region and along the I-85 corridor from Charlotte through the Upstate. The chain is strongest in Greenville, Spartanburg, and the Charlotte metro area that spills into South Carolina, but you'll also find restaurants in Columbia, Charleston, and smaller towns throughout the state. Most locations are in shopping centers or standalone buildings near major roads.

The easiest way to find your nearest Bojangles is through the location finder on bojangles.com, which shows hours, phone numbers, and whether a location offers drive-through service. Many South Carolina Bojangles have drive-through windows, which is useful if you're traveling on I-85 or I-95. A few locations in downtown areas or shopping districts may be counter-service only.

Bojangles also partners with delivery services including DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub at most South Carolina locations, though delivery fees and menu availability vary by restaurant. Calling ahead during busy times (lunch between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., dinner after 5 p.m.) can save you wait time, especially at high-traffic locations near highways.

The signature chicken sandwich and fried chicken

Bojangles' core menu centers on fried chicken and the chicken sandwich, which comes on a warm buttermilk biscuit. The sandwich is available in three main versions: regular (mild seasoning), spicy (with a kick of heat), and cajun (a regional variation with deeper spice). Each comes with your choice of toppings—pickles, lettuce, tomato, mayo—or plain. The biscuit itself is made fresh throughout the day at most locations, which is why Bojangles chicken sandwiches taste noticeably different from chain competitors.

Beyond the sandwich, Bojangles sells bone-in fried chicken by the piece or in family-size boxes. A two-piece combo typically includes two chicken pieces, a side (fries, coleslaw, mac and cheese, or green beans), and a biscuit. Tenders—boneless strips of fried chicken—are also available and come breaded or unbreaded. Pricing varies by location but generally runs $6 to $12 for individual meals and $15 to $30 for family boxes.

The chicken is seasoned and fried to order at most South Carolina locations rather than held under heat lamps, which means wait times during peak hours can stretch to 10 or 15 minutes. If you're in a hurry, ordering ahead by phone or through the app can cut your wait significantly.

Breakfast biscuits and morning menu

Bojangles breakfast runs from opening time (usually 5 or 6 a.m., depending on location) until around 10:30 a.m. The menu is built around buttermilk biscuits filled with sausage, bacon, ham, or egg and cheese. A sausage biscuit or bacon biscuit typically costs $2 to $3, while an egg and cheese biscuit runs slightly higher. Combo meals add hash browns and a drink.

The chain also serves biscuits with chicken—a spicy or regular chicken breast on a biscuit—which blurs the line between breakfast and lunch. Bo-Tatoes (seasoned hash browns) are the standard side, though some locations offer grits or other breakfast sides. Beverages include coffee, tea, and juice, with coffee refills available at most locations.

Breakfast is the quietest time to visit most Bojangles, with shorter lines and faster service than lunch or dinner. If you're driving through South Carolina early in the morning, stopping at Bojangles for a biscuit and coffee is a practical option on I-85 or I-95.

Sides, drinks, and desserts

Bojangles sides include seasoned fries, coleslaw, mac and cheese, green beans, and Bo-Tatoes (hash browns). Portions are generous—a single side order is often enough for two people. Pricing for sides runs $1.50 to $3 depending on the item and location. The mac and cheese and coleslaw are made fresh daily at most locations and taste noticeably different from frozen or pre-made versions at other chains.

Drinks include soft drinks, iced tea (sweet and unsweet), lemonade, coffee, and bottled water. Bojangles does not serve alcohol. Desserts are limited to cinnamon pie (a fried pastry with cinnamon sugar filling) and occasionally seasonal items like peach pie. A cinnamon pie typically costs $1 to $2.

Bojangles also sells family-size platters designed for takeout or catering. A family platter usually includes eight to twelve pieces of chicken, multiple sides, and biscuits, priced between $25 and $40 depending on what you choose. These are popular for church gatherings, family dinners, and office lunches across South Carolina.

Pricing and payment options

Individual chicken sandwiches and biscuits range from $2 to $5, while combo meals (sandwich or chicken, side, and drink) run $6 to $10. Family boxes and platters cost $15 to $40. Prices vary by location and have shifted over time, so calling ahead or checking the menu board is the most reliable way to know what you'll pay.

Most South Carolina Bojangles accept cash, credit cards, and mobile payment through Apple Pay or Google Pay. Some locations also accept payment through the Bojangles app, which can save time at the counter or drive-through. A few older locations in rural areas may be cash-only, so it's worth confirming before you arrive if you're paying that way.

What makes Bojangles different from other fried chicken chains

Bojangles competes directly with Chick-fil-A, KFC, and Popeyes, but the chain has distinct strengths. The buttermilk biscuit is thicker and fluffier than competitors' biscuits, and it's made fresh throughout the day rather than pre-made. The chicken sandwich on that biscuit is simpler than Chick-fil-A's (no pickles unless you ask) but more flavorful than KFC's. Bojangles also opens earlier than most competitors, making it a practical breakfast stop.

Bojangles is also a regional chain with deep roots in the Carolinas—the company was founded in Charlotte in 1977—so it has stronger brand loyalty in South Carolina than national competitors. The Upstate and Piedmont regions especially treat Bojangles as a local institution. That regional identity means the chain sometimes runs limited-time items or regional variations that you won't find everywhere.

One practical difference: Bojangles' drive-through lines move faster than Chick-fil-A's at most locations, partly because the menu is smaller and partly because the chain doesn't use the hand-held ordering system that Chick-fil-A does. If you're in a hurry, Bojangles is often the quicker choice.

Bojangles rewards program and deals

Bojangles runs a rewards program through its mobile app that lets you earn points on purchases and redeem them for free items. You can also find occasional deals and promotions through the app, including discounted combo meals or free sides with purchase. The app also shows your nearest location, hours, and menu prices.

The chain occasionally runs limited-time promotions—discounted chicken sandwiches, free sides with purchase, or seasonal items—that vary by location and time of year. Following Bojangles on social media or checking the app is the best way to stay informed about current deals in your area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Bojangles open on Sundays?

Yes, most South Carolina Bojangles are open on Sundays, typically from mid-morning through evening. Hours vary by location, so checking the location finder on bojangles.com or calling ahead is the safest approach. Some locations in rural areas may have shorter Sunday hours.

During peak lunch hours (11 a.m. to 1 p.m.), wait times at busy locations can reach 10 to 15 minutes, especially in the drive-through. Counter service is sometimes faster. Calling ahead to order or using the app for mobile ordering can significantly reduce your wait time.
