Abandoned PDQ - Columbia, SC. Enjoy a look at this former restaurant that closed more than likely due underperformance. In its place will soon be a brand new Whataburger restaurant. Not to be confused with the Carolina chain, What-A-Burger, this will be a Whataburger from the Texas chain that has been expanding into other states.

No Joke PDQ Stands For Pretty Damn Quick

@edwardsr70 2 месяца назад

People Dedicated to Quality=PDQ it's right on there website lol

@bridgetraveler7700 2 месяца назад

Your right the word PDQ means a very not nice word to say or it can mean a restaurant chain name or a car wash system name

@mariebelladonna437 2 месяца назад

@@bridgetraveler7700 eh, I wouldn't call "damn" a very not nice word. I mean, it's crude. But I can think of much worse words.

@humptyshots6177 2 месяца назад

Lol that's a good one. But sorry it actually stands for People Dedicated to Quality. 😊

@mariebelladonna437 2 месяца назад

@@humptyshots6177 in this specific case, yes. But in general, the acronym PDW does stand for Pretty Damn Quick, and this use has been around much longer than People Dedicated to Quality. It's a synonym for ASAP (As Soon As Possible). So I guess you could say PDQ stands for both now, lol. But I'm pretty sure, given the fact that PDQ was/is a fast food restaurant (or maybe fast-casual), AKA a quick service restaurant, the PDQ in the name is tongue-in-cheek. It might officially, in their particular business, stand for People Dedicated to Quality. But they knew exactly what they were doing. I am certain of that, LOL.

Nice looking building. Clean. It'd be a shame to take that down just to spend time and money to put up something new. Fresh paint will brighten it up.

They’re building like 7 Whataburgers here in the Upstate. I’m excited there’ll be one down the street from my house 🥳. I fell in love with that place when I lived in Shreveport 🤤

Columbia Resident Here - I lived down from that PDQ a few years back and only went once. It was just too expensive for what it is. Zaxby’s is way cheaper and the quality is on par between the two.

Wallieb26 I heard that PDQ is a name for a car wash system. I didn't know that PDQ was a restaurant chain I thought that it was a car wash system name.

@paultomaszewski1964 Месяц назад

We were suppose to have two of them open here in Augusta GA, but there were some issues with how they were built (they were nearly open) and never opened. One is now a Slim Chickens joint and the other is an Echo Park Automotive place. They had a small one open for a very short time in a Walmart here, but within six months it seemed to close like all the other food places in our Walmart's. Some of the PDQ locations were franchised with help from Tim Tebow and Vinny Testaverde. Not sure if the ones here were, but they have a small handful that they set up.

@SalvadOr0818 Месяц назад

I grew up in Texas and moved to Columbia, SC in 2016. The fact that we just recently got a Buccees in Florence and now we're getting a Whataburger in Columbia amongst other cities is amazing.

Looks almost exactly like the Sicklerville, NJ location I covered on my channel. I guess they have some sort of kit that they put up that looks the same wherever they build it.

@jasong3652 Месяц назад

Rumor has it that our PDQ that closed in Hickory, NC is also becoming a Whataburger!

@kimiastewart6293 2 месяца назад

Cool find Wallie I have never eaten at one I wish they had more of these cool chain restaurants out here in the Southwest We do have Fuddruckers in Albuquerque I tried it for the first time last year

That's a great building too bad PDQ closed , we have a lot of Whataburger's here in K.C. .... I believe that you can get breakfast all day today if you choose we also have some Wahlburgers here in Kansas City as well.

@jimmiethekid15 2 месяца назад

Found this on the internet: PDQ and Whataburger (Texas-based chain) entered a deal together to change some of PDQs restaurants to Whataburgers so that they can enter the East coast market. Similar to what happened with Zoe’s and Cava

I live right down the street from this place. Surprised it closed but the prices were high. I use that Food Lion right behind you all the time. That is the Gamecock logo. You've got that PA accent. I assume you're from PA too?

@PsychoC4rnivore 18 дней назад

I used to live about 10 mins away from it until i moved across town. I believe i read online that PDQ and Whataburger came to a deal to close down several East Coast locations and convert them to Whataburgers

@drno-xc1yt 2 месяца назад

It seems like they tried to expand way too fast, and a bunch of the locations opened and closed inside just a couple of years. It's too bad, because my experiences eating there were quite good. The food seemed like it was of good quality.
