Characters on 76

Super friendly staff and attentive owner. Very large portions, 2 people could fill up sharing an appetizer or two easily. We did in fact, but it was good so we kept going. We had the Spinach Artichoke dip and baguette 😋 INSANE cheese pull. We also had Pesto Pizza, Chicken Cacciatore, Italian House salad, and for dessert the Cannoli Calzone. Excellent meal, great service. Affordable prices. Hope this place sticks around.

From the parking lot the owner was amazing !!! He greeted us , welcomed a large party the food was as fresh hot and seasoned to perfection. He took the time to explain all of the different dishes we had and assured they were fresh to order! We had a great time with the jukebox and it was a very relaxing and CLEAN restaurant ! It’s a hidden gem that needs to be displayed to everyone ! 10 out of 10!!

We stopped in to eat after my son was in a special band clinic at Newberry College. We're not familiar with the little town and just did a quick Google maps search for restaurants closest to us. I'm so thrilled to have selected this place. The food was absolutely 💯 amazing. The Alfredo sauce was definitely home-made! It was the best recipe I've ever had of it! My son loved the pizza he ordered also. Great staff and very friendly owner. I'm NEVER in Newberry, however, next time I am, I'm definitely stopping in again! Would definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best pizza joint between Columbia and Greenville! Ordered 3 pizzas and all were amazing. Thick and flavorful. We also ordered the cheesecake canzone, which was phenomenal! The entire staff was very friendly and hospitable. Environment was very inviting and seating areas and bathrooms were clean. 12/10 service. Highly recommend you stop and enjoy.

Chicken cacciatore was off the chart! I do not know any other restaurants around Newberry area that even has this great flavorful dish on the menu! Delish! Portion was plenty! Flavor! Flavor! flavor! And I would be remiss if I did not mention the bread! Buttery, chewy crust amazing! But don’t take my word for it go down and try for yourself. Manga!

What an Exceptional experience!! The customer service was unlike anything we have experienced before! Thank you Gavin and Jeff for going above and beyond! The Smokehouse Pizza and Spinach Artichoke dip were delicious! The pizza was loaded with toppings and the flavors Amazing! Well worth the drive! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! We will be back, next time with friends!

Some of the BEST pizza you’ll ever have! You could taste the quality of the ingredients and the pizzas are cooked to perfection! Even better though is the environment and the staff! Everything is very clean the interior and exterior have a wonderful aesthetic and you are treated with great care and respect from the moment you walk in! 10/10 highly recommend and will always stop in when in the area!

Characters on 76 is an absolute gem! The lasagna was clearly homemade and packed with flavor — easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The pizza was just as impressive, with a perfect crust and delicious toppings. On top of that, the service was excellent from start to finish — friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Definitely a place worth visiting again and again!

We, my wife, my sister and myself, stopped into Characters on 76, billed as a Smoked Italian restaurant on Sunday. The manager, Jeff, greeted us at the door, and was very friendly. We were seated promptly. We ordered the Stuffed Mushroon appetizer. It was filled with cheese, Italian sausage and topped with pepperoni. It was very good. My sister ordered the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap with a side of Mac and Cheese, my wife ordered the Pulled Brisket sandwich, also with the Mac and Cheese, and I had the Pulled Pork Sandwich with a side of Baked Beans. Everything was very tasty. I highly recommend Characters on 76. The food and service were excellent.

The food is excellent. The smoked flavors on the meats are like you made them at home. The owner is super friendly and as we say and watched football he made sure to greet all that walked through the door and went to each table to check on the service and food. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly.

This is what a $20 buffalo chicken wrap at Characters looks like. It took about 40 mins at 2P on Sunday to get this. It was my wife's birthday... won't make that mistake again.

Our first visit to Characters - First impression was Wow! The decor and atmosphere was impressive along with the super nice serving staff. We ordered the supreme pizza. Lots of good fresh ingredients. We will definitely go back!

Travelling from Denver, CO, we were looking for the perfect pizza to bring to an important meeting in Newberry. To our delight, we stumbled upon a hidden gem that exceeded all our expectations! The moment we walked in, we were greeted by the warm smiles of the owner and the friendly staff, creating an inviting atmosphere that instantly felt like home. Each pizza on the menu was a masterpiece, showcasing creative and mouthwatering combinations of toppings. We ordered five different pizzas, each one unique in flavor and presentation. From the zesty and vibrant veggie delight topped with farm-fresh ingredients to the rich and savory meat lover's dream that packed a punch, every bite was a testament to the passion and craftsmanship behind the pizza. If you live in Newberry or are just driving through, this is a place you need to try!

They didn't have many beer selections. "Beer distributor was out on leave" They charged us $7 for 1 small piece of garlic bread. We didn't know this and asked for 2 extra pieces of bread. Total $14 for 2 pieces of small bread. When we ordered a dessert they also didn't have the desert listed on the menu.

My husband and I decided to give this restaurant a try. Pleasant atmosphere, good service. we ordered a large Detroit style pizza With two toppings. The pizza had plenty of cheese, but the toppings were skimpy. Upon starting to eat the pizza I realized the bottom was burnt. I wanted to mention it to the waitress, but my husband thought it was edible. I thought it was gross. I won't go back there.

Mac n cheese like it should be... creamy and baked in a personal casserole dish with a cheesy crust. The brisket so tender. Baked beans spiced right.

Decor was enjoyable, service was decent, but the food was awful. The cheesy bread appetizers took a long time to come out, and when they did, they were overcooked and too greasy. The pasta was covered in some unidentifiable brown sauce that certainly wasn't alfredo, and the chicken tasted like it came right out of a can. Finally, the place is overpriced, and would be even if the food had been good.

All of the food (wings, stuffed mushrooms, pizza, whipped ricotta, and fettuccine Alfredo) was excellent and so was the service! The Alfredo sauce is homemade and the best I've ever had! My friend and I split the fettuccine Alfredo and they put it on separate plates so the picture represents only half an order. The prices are very reasonable especially for the portion size. I will definitely be back!

We stopped off of the interstate for lunch and enjoyed some great pizza at Characters! I like it thick, crunchy and tasty, and I wasn't disappointed. Enjoyed a delicious Ceasar salad as well. The service was very personable and friendly. I recommend Characters!

Loved the pizza! One of the best pizzas I've had in a while! Meatballs and pasta were on point. The restaurant (and its bathrooms) were clean. The decor was fun. Definitely family friendly as well as an adults meal out.
