The restaurant also offers sandwiches like hot dogs, hot dog chili, a fried chicken club sandwich, BBQ suppers, a BBQ sandwich, a deluxe chicken sandwich, and several others.
The Rush's menu also has a whole section of chicken supper boxes you can get that come with sides like potato salad, coleslaw, and rolls. The chicken baskets can come with wings, filets, chicken breasts, and more, and the chicken boxes come in 8, 12, 16, or 24 piece options.
Then there are the side orders, because what's good food at a fast-food restaurant without great sides? Sides include french fries, chili cheese fries, apple turnovers, and a "bar-b-que" meat side.
Plus, you can get dessert after you devour all that great food! The dessert menu has soft-serve ice cream, sundaes, milkshakes, a hot fudge cake, a banana split, etcetera. If you like ice cream, their apple turnover sundae looks especially delicious.

They're all located in the Midlands of South Carolina. They're pretty much entirely in the Lexington and Columbia areas, so if you're ever around, why not swing through a Rush's and see exactly what the Rush's menu has to offer?
