The 50 best breakfast and brunch in Charlottesville

Perfect and delicious place for light breakfast & coffee- well, lattes. You can order a more robust & hearty breakfast, but we chose a variety of pastries - chocolate croissant, 2 other smaller ones (don’t recall names) and an apple tart. I wished that I would have taken photos of the beautiful decorated/stenciled in flour or powdered sugar breads & desserts- works of art! We got there just before the line had to moved outside, but it moved pretty quickly. We got our order to go, but we decided to sit down at a table that was available to enjoy it.

here are a few areas for outdoor seating and a small area inside for seating, as such, they were full and there was an hour wait for seating. We had time so we waited and it went much faster than expected. You order at the counter and get a number for your table. It is self-seating and no reservations. There's a separate nearby station which has silverware, condiments, and self-serve water. We ordered a London Fog, Latte, Almond Croissant, Parfait, Sharondale, and "Madame" (with an egg) Croquet Monsieur.

Great little coffee spot with French baked goods. Lots of croissants, sticky buns. I picked up a sourdough bread to take home. It was made fresh that day and was delicious with our Italian meal that night.

When I come to Charlottesville I always need to stop by MarieBette. Love this little café with its wonderful array of desserts. I must admit their cannelés are my weakness. Their quiches are delicious. I always leave with baguette, croissants, and a few other viennoiseries. Being French I can’t resist:) The atmosphere is great and the people working there are always helpful and kind. A must visit.

Perfect little specialty shop for coffee and baked treats. The caneles (pictured) are specifically what we stopped in to get while visiting Charlottesville. Also enjoyed a couple of iced coffees which complimented the pastries very nicely. The parking lot and pedestrian traffic stay pretty busy so be careful when pulling in or out of the lot.

The food was great for either quick stop or a sit down breakfast. Definitely recommend. Only complaint is that if it’s raining the said down space is limited.

By local American standards it's a pretty good place. By European standards this place is a disaster. Espresso was overroasted and waaaay too bitter. Pastry is passable.

We had the Biriaa Biscuit and Fried Chicken Sandwich, both of which tasted amazing. The chicken thigh was cooked beautifully and the slaw was perfect. We had a side of fries that were cooked perfectly. Their cocktails are worth the price, amazingly made. The service was kind and quick. We ate within 30 minutes of sitting down.

Servers were all very polite and hospitable. The atmosphere was mellow with dim lighting. BUT THE FOOD THO. THE FOOD WAS STUPENDOUS. The short rib croquettes, the duck ravioli, the scallop seasonal special, the creme brulee! The short rib croquettes and their crunchy exterior when you bite into it, the creamy and soft short ribs interior dipped into the rich and creamy hint of mustard SAuce. Exquisite. The duck ravioli was full of flavor, perfectly cooked al dente ravioli, so good. Touched my tralala. The scallop had a very nice grilled flavor, there was so much different flavor in one dish. Like the autumn leaves. The pumpkin slices, to the carrots, to whatever was in there. I don't even know where they get their olive oil. That was such a smooth and fruity flavor. The creme brulee was a nice finisher. I would love to go back.

A Cville treasure! Great menu with local ingredients executed perfectly. Sit outside if the weather permits or grab a cozy booth inside. We had the roasted beet salad with seared salmon for lunch.

Food is fantastic. Wine list is complete. Only comment is to take a day with the staff on the wines & proper serving temps. Beautiful bottle of 2022 Chablis came out slightly under room temp. Had to ice it down to bring it to its glory. Was genuinely great otherwise. Just take the time to educate the super star staff on the wine.

Splendid French style dishes. • autumn squash tart absolutely exquisite. Fall in a bite, roasted cinnamony squash, buttery crisp and rich tart, pumpkin seed texture pop, & matchless goat cheese yogurt sauce with hint of sweetness and basil garnish. • tuna tartare with minty green sauce and sweet sour soy glaze, fresh tuna, & crispy wonton fried strips for dipping and crunch texture. • confit duck ravioli with generous richly flavorful sauce, garlic pesto, basil, goat cheese yogurt drizzle. Succulent duck in al dente ravioli pasta. Restaurant floorplan a bit narrow feeling, service can be a bit rushed and desultory by some of the staff but attentive and great by others. Superb food.

Food quality was variable. Burrata salad was pretty good, vegan tamale not so good, garlic bread not so good, crab cakes were ok, and short ribs were good. Server was a bit awkward but ultimately provided decent service. Sit outside--kitchen fumes a bit strong inside.

Vegetarian options and all the servers work together as a team. Even the bartender came to ask exactly how the cocktails are desired. I would like more than one napkin but hey the food was amazing. Very quaint place.

The food wasn't bad. My Pancake and bacon could have been better for the price. And the atmosphere it exhumed. But my wife's ophelys egg Benedict was super awesome looking, and my wife absolutely loved it.

Came here for breakfast with my wife and we enjoyed our time here. We both liked the vibe inside, very farmhouse-y, with multiple different rooms to eat in. We both got the breakfast burrito and it was good both in quantity and quality. The coffee was actually pretty cheap and we liked it. We will like eat here again, would like to try lunch or dinner as well.

I got the crepes with strawberries and nutella and they were delicious, a really good size portion. We also ordered a carafe of mimosa which was a good size. The salmon was super fishy, and while i was naturally gifted with a large sausage the sausage on the biscuit was rather small, the pancakes were also a really good size and unique with the white chocolate. the servers were a couple of odd balls but they were kind enough. We also started our dining experience with banana beignets which were fantastic.

Perfect breakfast for our last morning in the region. Eggs Benedict was perfect and Waffles with strawberries were delicious! Highly recommend for quiet date or friends catching up.

Great food, large portions, great service! Cozy little restaurant with great service. I took pictures of the bowls (Bayou bowl and Steak bowl) but pictures did not do justice to the size or taste quality of the meals. Note: There is absolutely no parking near this restaurant. Expect to find a garage nearby and park. Walk from nearby garages are about 5-7 min.

We ate outside and our waitress was awesome! The food was delicious and I would highly recommend going there! We had savory crepes and baked egg in an avocado. Delicious!

Egg Benedicts were extraordinary and really liked the coffee. Service was quick, perfect for a quick bite yet a gourmet level of quality.

Fun restaurant to visit. Nice, bright and well maintained. You can order breakfast all day so naturally we ordered pancakes, eggs and bacon. Service is friendly and fairly quick. Also had a chef salad which was very fresh and amply sized. Bacon was a little skimpy but tasty. Also had a toasted Genoa salami sub, while decent, wasn’t thoroughly toasted. Depute the minor nitpicks this is a great restaurant and will return. It is a little difficult to find if you’ve never been here before. If you are heading West, it is immediately after the Carmax. Parking up front seems to be taken most of the time but there is plenty more parking in the back. This is a popular local restaurant so you may need to be patient if visiting during peak times.

I should have gotten breakfast. The onion rings were room temperature onion slices wrapped in undercooked batter and grease ooze. The hamburger was warm and tasty and my wife's pasta was hot and delicious. Service was about what I expect from a 'one hit wonder' place...couldn't have cared less if anything was off or if we were alive or not. I understand this place wins all sorts of awards...wish those workers had been on duty when we were there...maybe I wouldn't be regretting not having had breakfast at 630pm.

My husband and I sat down for dinner on Friday, March 20th, 2025. We were seated immediately. I did not get our waitress name as she didn’t give it. Our waitress smelled strongly of cigarette smoke like it just hit us in the face. We gave her our beverage and food order at the same time and we still waited several minutes for our drinks. other people who came in after us had their drinks before we did. And let me point out yall were not that busy at all at the current time. My husband ordered a chicken parm sub with fries and I ordered a sausage parm sub with fries . We got our subs but we didn’t get the fries we wanted. We were served chips instead which is not what we wanted . One half of my sub literally has one piece of small sausage on it and the rest was bread and sauce. Also it was extremely unpleasant when I took a bite into my sub and it had a whole bay leaf in it. You all normally do not disappoint but yall definitely did that night. #1. Not a pleasant smell cigarette smoke. #2. Waiting for our drinks #3. Messed up food order #4 there was a whole bay leaf in a sub which is not edible or pleasant to bite into.

Popular local family restaurant. Very busy, but they are cranking food out like clockwork! Basic diner-style food. Not a huge menu selection, but they do good with what they offer. Friendly staff. Lot of parking in the back, but don't be dismayed if you have to wait a little bit...you'll get in pretty quick. It's noisy, but you can tell everyone is happily chatting.

Stopped here on a long drive, food was comforting and hearty. The staff were great, playing good tunes. Highly recommend.

On a busy afternoon our party of 4 was seated right away. Our food came out quickly and everyone loved their food.

The staff is on it...very polite and great service. 10 minutes from the time we ordered to dishes being served.

I ordered the ' I willy love you ' tacos, and they were pretty good! Wish they had more than one slice of avacado per taco though. Very nice restaurant and staff, I will definitely be returning to try some other flavors.

We tried all six of the tacos on happy hour. They were all excellent, though I was partial to the vegetarian ones. The watermelon jalapeño margarita was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Nice outdoor atmosphere. Excited to return and try more!

This restaurant is the BEST! The food is absolutely perfect, so flavorful and tasty. The Brazos Burrito is sooooo good. We had the Tres Leches cake for dessert which was also probably our favorite dessert we have ever gotten at a restaurant —ever!! The service is great as well! So friendly and welcoming. The patio is very nicely decorated and kept very clean/tidy. There’s absolutely nothing I could suggest to improve, they have it all figured out already! I wish I lived in this area, I would come back all the time. Next time I’m in Charlottesville I WILL be coming back!

Great location with a lot of outdoor and indoor seating. Select tacos are included in their happy hour deals. There is a wide selection of vegetarian and vegan tacos - I highly recommend “this is my yam” and “triple pickle”

I enjoyed the tacos here. They were veery flavorful ! I ordered the blackened shrimp and steak tacos with chips and guacamole 🥑. Will definitely be returning . I’m sure this is my new favorite . I can’t wait to try different kind.

I ordered 2 Texas twinkies, 1 pollo rostizado 1 carnitas And 1 adult beverage, the Calbron. Unfortunately food was luke warm when it came out, and generally uneventful/ subpar would be a bit mean... the carnitas was undercooked and concerning... no bueno. *See photo, after the attempt to down it. Some pozies tho: 1)Though basic in flavor, the Cabron hits a quite strong if all you've had all day is popcorn, some chips and a veggie burger. 2. The ambiance is pretty neat indoor and outdoor. Outside of the architecture and vibes, at least when I went, lots of kids and parents *Taco Tuesday. 3. if you're just looking to have your belly filled, food and adult drinks can be placed to go. Spent $25.00 for meal, not including tip.

These were perhaps the best tacos I have ever had, and the menu was expansive so there was truly something for everyone. We particularly loved the black beans (even a baby and the meat loyalists gobbled these up!). Wish we were from the area so we could go back…!

We came in for dinner this Sunday and left disappointed. The main issue was my wife's chicken was burnt and overcooked. Not blackened, it was completely burnt on the outside. You couldn't even taste anything except burnt skin. My phone was dead so unfortunately I couldn't get a picture. The fact that the expo, cook, and server sent this out, we decided we had no confidence to ask for a replacement from the staff. There restaurant was almost empty at the time, so it's not like they were slammed. The rockfish was good at least or I would have given them 1 star. The pickled shrimp was pretty disappointing as well. No flavor, there was 1 pepper slice in the dish and just shrimp with, and saltine crackers for $14. Maybe the dish just wasn't for me but I wasn't too upset about that until they served us the burnt chicken. The servers were nice, drinks were okay. The atmosphere is nice outdoors ,but I definitely would not return.

I really struggled whether not to give this place a three-star rating or a two-star rating mostly because the portions were ridiculously small especially for the price. I ordered the shrimping grits it was $26 and it was like the portion size of an appetizer My wife ordered a salmon sandwich and there was more bread than salmon and I literally left hungry. Flavor of the food was okay he was fine it just wasn't enough of it and I'm not saying that you have to serve so much that someone's taking home dinner for the next night but I shouldn't leave hungry at any price. One thing that really got me which was just sort of threw me off a little bit was the hose was really adamant about people having reservations then was make it seem as if us not having reservations was going to be a big issue when there was literally one couple at the restaurant at the time I mean one other couple there and he was saying that there were some 6:00 reservations but we arrived at 5:00 technically 5:09 because I checked my watch. When we receded and eating another couple came and sat down and they didn't like where they were seated so they got up to move to another seat like two tables over and the guy came over and said oh no you can't move we have reservations and that don't mess up the seating or something to that effect and it seemed really really odd and overly aggressive considering that there was virtually no one there. By the time we left which was right around 6:00 there were a few people that started to come in but even after we had walked around for a big got dessert and came back it wasn't like the place was jam packed there was still plenty of seating in the place and I was sitting outdoors there was plenty of seating outdoors and for what I saw There was no one sitting indoors. I have to say I would not go back here The food was just okay the prices were high considering the amount of food that you got if I received a full-size normal portion that had me not leaving hungry I would have been fine with the dollar amount but because of the small amount of food I felt like it was way overpriced. I will say though I had a nice brown ale that was cold and good I mean it's hard to go wrong with a nice cold beer.

Glad we stopped at this establishment. We only had a drink and appetizer (feta spread with grilled bread) but loved the outdoor atmosphere and friendly service. There is also indoor seating. Feta spread was nicely flavored with lemon zest.

What a great outdoor space , great location , good service . But, oh my goodness , food was incredibly disappointing . There are 2 “main” salads on the menu - at 6:00 PM , one was no longer available . I had the eggplant sandwich - it was good , open faced but certainly not a portion that would feed a heartier appetite . Very over priced for what it was . I would recommend going for a cocktail , maybe a small plate app but def not for dinner . Really a shame as a wonderful space

We've had several delicious meals at Tonic - we absolutely love the snack boards to start, and the ever-changing entrees are a hit every time - definitely appreciate the shift with the seasons. Plenty of gluten free options and the variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages is much appreciated. The outdoor seating is the cherry on top in nice weather!

Tonic, a hidden gem of Cville? Tonic so far has not failed us. Early in the pandemic it was hit and miss, however we have gone back for brunch and dinner. So, its the kind of place that you should know about. The atmosphere, if you're sitting outdoor, its lovely especially in the fall, spring or winter cool, the cocktails are inventive, and selective. I personal am not a Gin fan, however they do have a different drink for everyone. Tequila, whiskey, vodka and an Aperol spritz. Also, drinks are reasonable for Cville. NOW, the food! Absolutely delicious. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich, and not your average sandwich. They use a juicy, chicken thigh that’s perfectly seasoned and fried to perfection. I think double or triple breaded. SO MUCH CRUNCH FACTOR like, audible-in-a-quiet-room kind of crunch. The spice level hits a sweet and bold spice, just enough to wake up your taste buds, but balanced. The staff is very nice, however if a large party is there just be prepared, because they do the best they can, with what they have. if you got this far, sorry for no photos. I'm the person that will usually leave my phone at home, so I can have more engaging with my guest. Cheers everyone!

The drink menu is INCREDIBLE. Very crafty, creative, flavorful, and interesting drinks. Definitely the best cocktail menu I have seen they use very high quality ingredients. The food was alright, it was plated very well and the presentation was on point. The food just didn’t live up to the presentation. Overall I will definitely come back here for drinks, but most likely not food.

Yes and yes! Tried a bit of everything (tapas family style) with the five of us. The drinks well crafted. The food was an experience in itself (so good) and the staff was very attentive. Highly recommend if you are in town.Note: parking can be a challenge

Loved our breakfast here! Service was friendly and quick, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. 10/10, will come back here. Patio seating with games out front, clean bathrooms and plenty of space inside. Parking lot to the side wasn’t full, with one hour parking. Other parking options available with a small walk, but this experience was very smooth from start to finish for us.

Simply incredible, some of the best brunch we've had! Super fun International Sodas and Coffee, tried the Cafe Bombon and it was great. Tostones Rellenos is unique and savory, especially the plantain cup filling, and Chicharron de Cerdo is a flavorful and textural adventure, a must-try for any pork-belly lover! Huevos Guajiros is a truly impeccable dish, a generous helping of the most delicious eggs we've had. Food came out super fast, too, with fast and friendly service to boot! Charming decor and awesome massive window, as well, so glad we stopped in.

From the moment we walked in, we knew this restaurant was special. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between warm and lively—filled with the aroma of slow-cooked meats, garlic, and spices that instantly transport you to Miami. The food is nothing short of phenomenal. The What truly sets this place apart, though, is the service. Every staff member was attentive, friendly, and eager to share recommendations, making the entire experience feel personal and welcoming. We’ll be coming back again and again. Highly recommend!

It’s definitely a unique atmosphere, with a lot of Miami and Florida themed decor. We got seated pretty quickly given how large our party was and how busy the place was. The reception waiter was a bit rude though and acted like we couldn’t comprehend basic logic. The El Nacional dish was very good, delicious and good presentation, although I was hoping for bigger servings.

We had been on our way to a different breakfast place near UVA but stumbled upon Guajiros while searching for parking. This was a lucky find! Despite not being especially hungry at first, the menu quickly changed that. The menu, which many have already posted, is a showcase of Cuban comfort food, packed with plantains, pork prepared in several ways, pressed pork and steak sandwiches, beans, rice, eggs, OH MY! It was a whirlwind of food that I don't even remember what any of the dishes were called! So glad we saw the "Open" sign while circling block after block looking for parking! Guajiros turned out to be a perfect and unexpected breakfast spot. The atmosphere was very laid back and service was awesome. Food came much more quickly than expected. I still don't know how the one server was able to handle the entire dining area. She was amazing! Will definitely return if I'm back in Charlottesville again.

Simply one of my favorite spots in Cville! Don’t skip the queso frito, empanadas, and a cafecito! Once you try them, you’ll crave them regularly :)

Visiting C-Ville and tried this place for breakfast. Puff pastry waffles?! Its AMAZING!!! Light and flaky! This was a million times better than the free hotel breakfast up the road. I got the breakfast paffle with baked Egg, Avocado, Tomato, Spring Mix, and Aioli plus I added chicken sausage for the extra protein 💪🏼. I also stole a bite of my wife’s fried paffle which had fried chicken and honey. Both were insanely good! My only complaint is this place isn’t in my home town. See you again Iron Paffle the next time we are in the area.

My husband and I went here for the first time today and loved everything about the experience! The food is delicious and fairly priced, the atmosphere is chill, and the staff members are inviting. Amanda, the manager, is knowledgeable about the menu and an absolute delight. I highly recommend you patronize this establishment!

First visit, absolutely delicious. Nashville Chicken Paffle, a tofu option as well. The team down here is crushing it, and I don't even like waffles but it was oh soooop good, a nice fluffy and slightly crisp waffle. If you never been, it's an absolute must try. You won't be disappointed.

Anytime I am in Charlottesville I think of this place and had the pleasure of visiting on multiple occasions. It smells great as soon as you walk in the door and they have plenty of savory or sweet options. Great place for breakfast or lunch. I got to enjoy the Nashville hot paffle this last time. The fried chicken was cooked perfectly the Paffles are so flaky and delicious and it brought the heat. I highly recommend

Charlottesville has been a celiac delight and Iron Paffles & Coffee is a large part of the reason! There is a dedicated fryer, a dedicated waffle iron, and almost everything on the menu can be made celiac safe/gluten free. I had a breakfast sandwich with hash browns, bacon & siracha aioli - amazing. We also ordered a canoli waffle and it was just as good. My husband ordered the non-GF Paffle and wont stop talking about how good it was. I can’t wait to come back here!

The fried chicken with mac paffle is absolutely delish🔥This was my first time trying Iron Paffles and let’s just say I’m so damn glad I did. I’m not even exaggerating, it’s that good! Definitely coming back here someday.

The ordering process is kind of weird and very impersonal. If its your first time there like it was for me then good luck cause youre on your own! Pretty gimmicky in my opinion. The paffles got soggy quickly no matter what you put on it. If you order your sandwich with any compote on it then they put a malicious amount on and only have small bar napkins. Neither of our cheeses were melted. For two "build your own" breakfast sandwiches we ended up spending $33 total even though we each got maybe 3-4 things on each sandwich. This could be executed much better in so many ways. Disappointing!

We went for a quick brunch before heading out. Service was quick to seat us on the dog friendly patio out back that was shaded and cool. Drink were quick to come. They are great to get water to the pup. Food was great had the elote burrito and turkey sausage gravy over biscuits. Would try again next time in town.

My husband and I went here for breakfast. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. The server gave us two menus - the regular one and a seasonal one. I asked her whether the Elote breakfast burrito was good and she said yes. Also, she advised that the seasonal menu would be gone in a few days, so if there was anything we were interested in, we should go ahead and try it before it's gone. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my husband ordered the Elote breakfast burrito. Both items were good. My husband said the burrito had lots of different flavors, and the hollandaise sauce really enhanced the flavors. He’d have liked more of the sauce, lol. He also said it would have tasted even better if the sausage from my shrimp and grits had been in his burrito! The million dollar bacon was really good! We didn't taste any cayenne, but the combination of syrup, pepper, and bacon was wonderful. The only complaint would be the size of the bacon. We thought it was going to be thicker and that the strips were going to be a little longer. My watermelon wake-up was very tasty - wasn't too sweet, but was less sweet than I thought it would be (not a bad thing though). My husband had coffee and he said it was pretty good. Overall for the food, we give a rating of 8 out of 10. What we also enjoyed were the cards you can get from the table by the front door. It was fun asking each other riddles and 'would you rather' questions!!! We had a fun breakfast experience here, and our server was awesome! She checked on us the perfect amount of times (not too little, not too much). I highly recommend this place!

We had a great experience at First Watch! The staff was very nice and welcoming, and even though the restaurant was busy, the wait was surprisingly short, which was a pleasant surprise. Our food was delicious and well-prepared. My husband got an omelet and absolutely loved it. My son ordered the waffle with sausage and couldn’t get enough of the waffle. Both of my daughters had scrambled eggs with sausage and fruit, and they raved about how good the eggs were. I ordered the Farmhouse Hash, and it was so good flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. What I appreciate about this location is that it’s consistent with other First Watch restaurants great food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

This is a great place to enjoy a variety for breakfast or lunch. It goes from simple to just about anything you want to try. Great selection of drinks as well. If you’re looking for a great meal give it a try. I tried the tri fecta which was awesome. Got the pancake, eggs, bacon and had a green tea with a piece of cinnamon. Tell where else you can get that for breakfast? Go by and give it a try! You will be glad you did!

Great, freshly prepared food, eggs perfectly cooked. Do not sit at the bar...employees hang out in bar area, browse on their phones and except for the bartender, completely ignore you. Disconcerting to try and eat with 2 employees standing in front of you doing mothing but talking to each other and on their phones. Great great bartender, knows how to engage and serve. Might come back but definitely will sit at a table next time.

Delicious - large servings - everything I saw come out of the kitchen looked tasty. Nice little pot of coffee that stayed decently hot. Lemon ricotta pancakes a nice twist, turkey gravy biscuit and fried potatoes nicely spiced. There is typically a wait. Make a reservation if u can. Went back in Summer again and had a special - strawberry French toast - wow. Tasted like a cinnamon bun. I’m going to dream about this one for a while. Delicious 💕 Recent Summer menu addition Elote breakfast burrito was a thing of beauty and top deliciousness - many different flavors. The strawberry French toast was not a work of art like last Summer, not quite as tasty but nice all the same.

Our food was great, but we really loved our server Ericka. She was very kind and had a great energy with us (and all the other tables we saw her serving). She genuinely cared about our dining experience and we would love to have her again when we come back

Food was good but nothing to rave over. Crab cake was fresh. But the plate was a bit cluttered with sauteed vegetables. No sauce for the crab cake. My friend enjoyed the shrimp and grits. Staff was attentive and nice

We ate both dinner and breakfast here. Two excellent meals! And the service was great! One server, Gail, was a UVA student, engaging and attentive and smart. The supervisor, Twanda, checked on us as we were eating breakfast. We got into a discussion about grits, and upon learning my wife's view of them, RAN into the kitchen to bring her a small bowl of the Ridley's. She has now become a grits fan. My omelet, big enough to feed two, was just cooked to perfection. One item to change . . . the bar's signature Old Fashioned is made with Jim Beam . . . I told the bartender they needed to up their game, and she completely agreed . . . I had Knob Creek in mine. In any case, don't miss a visit here!

My husband and I were scoping out new brunch places and the Ridley is by far the best weve been to in charlottesville. Honor was our server and he was very attentive and sweet. The food and cocktails are some of the best I have ever had. Definitely recommend coming here if you’re ever in the area. Its worth it!

It was our first visit there and a nice experience. The host and waitress made us welcome and answered all questions. We look forward to returning when back in that area.

The Ridley is an understated and cozy place to come to if you're looking for some truly delicious dishes in a laid back lounge atmosphere. The old fashioned is fantastically balanced if you like a slightly sweeter old fashioned, the sweet potato mash has an incredible nutmeg/cinnamon flavor that is just fantastic, and the bourbon street pasta is to die for- expect eye rolling mmmmmmmmms. Truly, one of the best meals we have had in a long time. Also Katherin is a wonderful server, she is attentive, personable, and timely. Thanks Katherin for making our time at The Ridley even better!

Celebrated our 23rd anniversary at the Ridley. Everything was amazing, waiter, Edward was a young man and amazing! He was very patient with us as we figured out our order. Only downside was the greens were spicy (please remove the spicy element.. because the flavor was great!) and our friends didn’t like the deviled eggs. My salmon pasta was simply divine!!!! My husband’s lamb shank was tender and very good. My friend’s husband had the chicken and waffles and he loved it. Great place to eat and we will be back!!!! Atmosphere was elegant and perfect for our anniversary dinner. Great service, meal and ambience!!! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️ )

Not worth the money. Fried green tomatoes were undercooked and under-seasoned, cold on the inside with wet batter and hard exterior. Not worth $17. Pasta had brittle texture and the sauce was really loose. Flavor was good, but the dish was worth maybe $15-18. not the $29 we paid. It goes for $23 total with just chicken or sausage, but we got both and paid extra. Not even close to worth it. Deviled eggs were really good, but basic. Just egg yolk and mayo for filling with a sprinkle of chives and candied bacon on top. Very good flavor, but it was $10 for two eggs (four halves). On the plus side, servers were great and atmosphere was really nice. Fancy with jazz music and open bay door with cool breeze coming in; however, I would not return due to food quality and high price.

Good Gawd! REAL NY BAGELS!!!! In town for work, drove by and had to try it. I got an EVERYTHING 🥯 w smoked turkey, munster 🧀 sprouts, lettuce, mayo & mustard. It was FANTASTIC and way better than any fast food junk you would get for $6 bucks. Going back for breakfast and taking a dozen home... I would highly recommend stopping by and having a nosh! Went back for breakfast today and to pick up some bagels 🥯 to take home! Gotta MONSTER Sausage, egg and cheddar on an everything bagel! Cured my hangover!

They say that their bagels are NY style but I think it’s better! It’s fresh from oven, moist bread with high quality filling. I ate their regular pastrami bagel sandwich and tried custom order smoked salmon sandwich with everything bagel. I have tried both regular and wheat everything bagels, both of them are equally delicious; all the seeds are popped in my mouth while chewing my delicious bites. If you are near by don’t miss it!

I would say the best part of this place is the value. Im not sure if other places in this area are similarly priced, but as someone from DC area, I could not imagine being able to get a bagel for $1 anymore and a sandwich for ~$5. When we arrived the line was out the door and when we left it was even longer. But the line moved quickly and the overall time wasn't too bad. The breakfast and chicken salad sandwiches were good. I would say I have had bagels and bagel sandwiches I liked better but not anywhere close to this price, at least not since a very long time.

We all liked Bodo's bagels. I had an egg w/sausage with everything bagel and all was very fresh and yummy. Also tried pastrami sandwich w/plain and strawberry cream cheese w/plain - really liked all we tried and certainly will be back. Sunday noon was really busy.

Best bagels south of New Jersey/New York! I’ve been here a few times and have never left disappointed. The cream cheese and bagels are legit! The coffee is not pretentious and goes well with the meal. My only complaint is that they don’t toast the bagels, but their freshness makes up for it.

If you haven't had a Bodo's bagel, you haven't had the best bagels on the planet! There's a delicious reason this establishment has been going strong for almost 40 years. They offer a vast number of bagel flavors, from plain to sweet to savory. My personal favorite for a bagel sandwich is their onion bagel. There's a wide array of fresh and gratifying sandwich fixings and yummy spreads. They also have flavorful sides, such as salads, fruit, and soups. Everything is ALWAYS very fresh. We arrived at lunchtime, and the restaurant was packed with hungry customers. There was a long line, but it moved very quickly because their staff is like a well-oiled machine and super efficient. We ordered sandwiches to go and were in and out within 15 minutes. The prices are wonderfully affordable. My chicken salad on onion bagel was out-of-this-world delightful; the perfect cool meal for a blistering hot summer day. As always, the most satisfying breakfast, lunch, or dinner under $10 that you'll find anywhere!

Neither me nor my wife like the bagel sandwiches here. I think it's popular because it's inexpensive. The sandwiches lacked flavor. Stingy with both avocado and mayo. Even Panera Bread is better. It could be just us because the place is really popular.

My husband got the hamburger melt and fries My chicken dinner was the star of the show! This might be the best fried chicken I've ever had! The mac and cheese was excellent! The fried potatoes with onions and cornbread were like from my mom. The ambiance is like a little eight table diner and very homey with lots of pictures. The service was excellent. You go to the window to place your order and they bring it to your table. After you eat you pay as you're leaving. I will definitely be going back on my visits to see my cousin in North Carolina. And the prices cannot be beat. The menu is current from January 2, 2024. I wouldn't mind trying other things on their menu at all, but all I want is their chicken from now on so I'll have to talk my husband into getting something else so I can taste from his plate too. That chicken was so crispy and delicious and juicy inside. Just excellent!

Wonderful old-school cafe a short distance from UVA Hospital. I have walked past a few times recently and wanted some of the finest comfort food in town. Service with a smile. I got a Philly steak with onions and added peppers and mushrooms. Perfect size and the taste and bread were good. Also ordered some mac & cheese and coleslaw. Both were good but the slaw was better. I want to get the chicken next time for sure and eat there. Cost per person is very reasonable with dinners available for approximately $11.

A little treasure. It's probably been there forever. The staff was very kind and patient. The fried chicken was delicious and the sides cabbage, cornbread, Mac n cheese (dry n sticky vs. wetness gooey) was sooo delicious. The pork chops with gravy was a winner too as well as sweet potato pie and lemon pound cake!! Would love to try everything!@

While touring Monticello, we worked up an appetite for lunch. Hit the Google, and found Mel's was open and had great reviews, so we head to downtown. The reviews were spot on. The fried chicken was juicy and flavorful, and had a nice, crispy crust. The Mac and cheese was very good. The stewed tomato's were oddly sweet, so not a favorite. The small burger was cooked perfectly and the added bacon was nice and crispy. The homemade pulled pork had a nice flavor, not too much sauce, and topped with crispy slaw, a nice touch. Both were served on toasted buns. The fries were fresh, cooked just right, and seasoned to perfection. This place is a hole in the wall, but the food is prepared with love!

Today we ate at Mel's Café. We were welcome by a very high energy and knowledge waitress. She gave great service with loving humor which we enjoyed. Now the food was off the chain, if don't know what that means, the food was delicious. My girlfriend and I did not know what to eat first. Mel's was just the place we were looking for, local owner, great food and great atmosphere.

A true gem!! We came into town for a concert & always prefer a non-chain place to eat. Mel's was nearby and had good reviews so we decided to try. It did not disappoint!! Everyone was very friendly, food came fast and had the perfect portion. If you like home cooked southern dining, this is your place. The fried chicken was perfection. We also got the Mac & cheese, green beans, country ham, hamburger steak, coleslaw, stewed tomatoes. There was not a single complaint. It was like eatting at your southern country raised grandmothers house for Sunday dinner. We are already planning our next trip back.

Highly recommended. I had the barbecue ribs with cabbage and red beans and rice. Very delicious. Also an ice cold slice of watermelon and lemon meringue pie. One of the best things you can do for yourself is eat at Mel's. The service is exceptional. Our waitress was very attentive and wouldn't let us lift a finger.

I really wanted to give this restaurant a high review. We were in the area for a medical appointment, and the existing views and pictures made this place look great. We headed over craving some delicious breakfast fare, and a nice relaxing atmosphere. The first impression was fine, the hostess who seated us was an extremely pleasant man. The place had a basic small town diner vibe with nothing special to set it apart from other mom and pop type eateries. I was a bit surprised at the limited offerings on the menu. I ordered the bacon and Swiss omlette, which was a 3 egg omlette with your choice of bread/toast. and My son ordered the Super big complete breakfast which consisted of eggs, a meat choice, hash browns, bread choice, a small juice, and coffee. Our waitress was okay, not friendly, but not rude, just someone going through the motions of her daily grind. I was dubious when our plates arrived, they were very unappealing. My omlette was extremely dry, and my English muffin was burned on the outside, but doughy in the middle. The omlette had so much bacon in it, that salt and bacon was all you could taste, there was barely any Swiss cheese at all, and it was overcooked and rubbery. My son had the same problem with his english muffin as I did. He said his food was okay. I ate as much of the omlette as I could manage to choke down, which was maybe a third. My son who has a big appetite did not finish his meal either. Considering that the portions were very small, that kind of sums it up. I was sadly disappointed. Our dining experience was nothing even remotely close to the yummy homey local gem the website portrayed. Total cost after tip $37.49! A sad waste of hard earned money.

We liked coming here with friends. But things changed one day! After that we have not returned nor would we recommend this restaurant!!! Enjoyed our meal with our friends that day. Two of us ordered hot chocolate. It was so delicious, we asked for a 2nd cup. The waitress gave us a new cup. I get to the bottom of my cup and I see one to two sugar substitute packets in the bottom of my cup! 🤢🤮 I thought I was going to throw up!! I got up to tell the waitress and a manager. He tried to make light of the situation which was not nice! He said the cup was washed. But if it was that didn't matter. I DRANK ALL THE HOT CHOCOLATE OUT THE CUP AND THERE WAS TRASH AT THE BOTTOM OF MY CUP!!! What didn't he understand I thought? I felt like it wasn't washed. Thinking of my mouth being on a cup someone else used. Their trash at the bottom and the waitress NOT looking inside the cup. It was and IS GROSS!!! I expressed how sick I felt about it. I went back to my table, told my friends. I didn't want to ruin their meal. But it was soooo hard to sit there and not think about it. As well as remembering management didn't really seem to care! When we got up to pay the same manager came up and said he would take care of the charge for my meal. We haven't returned! No plans to. Our friends love the place, but we don't recommend this restaurant!

I had such a wonderful experience at Villa Diner! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. My waitress, Kaitlin, was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The host staff was also incredibly friendly — on our second visit, the host even gave my daughter a lollipop, which absolutely made her day! I enjoyed it so much that I came back the next day with my sister and daughter before heading back home out of state. Villa Diner has a welcoming atmosphere, great service, and food that keeps you coming back. Highly recommend!

I’ve been here many times, this is easily the best, most hospitable breakfast place in Charlottesville. Definitely get there early on the weekends because everyone loves this place, so there is usually a short wait. Even with a wait, they’re so quick in every aspect of their service. Anytime friends or family visit, we always make sure to bring them by here.

My favorite breakfast diner in Charlottesville! Tried and true breakfast favorites at a reasonable price. I've always felt well taken care of when I eat here. I've tried most of the breakfast menu and have enjoyed everything. My favorite is The Deluxe.

The restaurant was completely full on a Wednesday afternoon. However, we were seated within a few minutes. Arianna was very present and sweet. Our food was adequately priced and delicious. Definitely recommend.

Great diner! Reasonable prices, breakfast is hot, fresh ingredients, eggs nice and fluffy(not powdered or premade). The biscuits are warm, tasty! Tables fill up quickly in the morning, get there early or expect brief wait, but it is worth it Friendly, prompt service!

There was a live musician, and an artistic decor, The bar set up nicely and neatly. The menu is well put together with traditional Mexican dishes. We ordered two main courses. The food was great. But what stood out was the smoked, naked chicken wings. I am going back for more of the wings tonight.

I came here with a large group, and everyone really enjoyed both the food and the drinks. The service kept up well with our party, and the atmosphere made it easy for everyone to have a good time. Definitely recommend this spot if you’re looking for a place that works well for groups and delivers on quality.

This location has moved but still at the mall. Love the vibe and decor when you enter. You can make reservations but even if online states that you cant make one, call the restaurant to verify. I showed up to see if they had tables available, and there many available, no reservation needed. The Camarones Quesa Tacos were very moist and outright the best shrimp tacos I have. They do not skimp on the meat either like other places. Suadero tacos had some spice, mild to normal people and fire to sensitive taste buds. Food is full of flavor. Just the right amount alcohol in the margaritas. Limonada is straight from the squeeze. Would definitely go back. Yucca fries are delicious and the right amount of softness but you'll definitely need some sauce with them because if you plan on eating the entire side by yourself, they get a little thick.

Had a reservation so there was no wait. Guacamole and salsa is fantastic. Yucca fries were okay. The suadero, shrimp and steak tacos were all really good. The place is pretty lively and I would not recommend for a quiet dining. There was a group at the bar that was pretty loud and for second I thought I was at Buffalo Wild Wings.

Enjoyed a Saturday lunch here with the family. We made a reservation so there was no wait. Service was excellent, food was great. I really enjoyed the homemade tortillas

Must stop when in Charlottesville. I came after 10, late night menu did not disappoint. Birria Tacos were incredible and they have Happy Dad! Micah was an A+ host behind the bar and kudos to the rest of the team working tonight.

Sat at the bar and had the Kiss me through the foam drink, which was tasty and satisfying, a grande margarita, ceviche, empanadas, enchiladas suizuas. Food was better than I remembered—quality was high, flavor combinations on standard dishes were inventive and honestly, I was licking my plate. Presentation was very appealing. Well done kitchen! Had been there a few other times but this was most memorable.

Coucou rachou makes some impressive pastries, especially love their cardamom braid and their rotating beignets, which you cannot find anywhere else in Charlottesville. For that reason I definitely think coucou is the best bakery in town with no competition that even comes close. Only 1 pastry at Marie Bette (brioche feuillete?) even comes close. Unfortunately Coucou’s espresso drinks service just falls flat and has been falling flat for years at this point. They should just entirely abandon their espresso drinks and just do black coffee, and do it right. Most times I’ve gone there, the espresso drinks are tasteless like tap water and arrive 15 minutes after you pick up your pastry. Clearly they have a problem training baristas and that’s understandable and ok, but don’t make me spend high quality coffee money for this. I’d skip the espresso drinks entirely or go in with the thought that it will be a hit or miss and surely will arrive late. This time I got a cappuccino that looks like the attached picture after waiting for 20 mins. The milk wasn’t even steamed. In contrast, look at the great ice cream I got another time I was here.

Once upon a time I saw someone's Instagram story and a few clicks later I was reading Cou Cou Rachou's daily menu with spice bush beignets (at that time.) The rotating beignets kept me hooked and in those early days they ran out and I tried pain suisse, kouign amans, and more. This review is long overdue but between keeping my French brushed up trying to remember the words in the ever changing danishes and scones, and providing treats to share with family, friends and coworkers I am never not impressed. Lines are understandably long, but once you see what the fuss is about you will understand the wait. Whether it's carry out, dine in, or picking up holiday orders you will never be disappointed here. The pop up markets are so fun too as someone who loves to shop small and local!

An adorable French bakery cafe where you can see them prepping food so you know everything is made in house and fresh! The interior is lovely with some seating inside and outside although limited. I went within an hour of closing but there were still some items to choose from thankfully. I purchased a chocolate croissant for $7 and it was delightfully light, soft but with the texture of the many layers it was baked with. The chocolate wasn’t too sweet but had enough chocolate where I’m not looking for it. The staff are incredibly friendly and sweet. The parking lot was a great bonus. I’ll be back to try more items on their menu!

Can’t say enough about Cou Cou Rachou- has become my “go-to” spot on Sunday mornings. The pastries are can’t miss, especially the caneles, croissants, and double choc cookies- all to be enjoyed on their covered back porch, year-round. The staff is amazingly welcoming and greet me and my service dog like we are both members of the family. So many things to try, so little time!

Delicious pastries with fresh flavors and perfect texture. The fig pastry and focaccia were amazing! So satisfying

Cute and cozy bakery and coffee shop. Coffee (cortado, cappuccino and latte) was very good. Went for gluten free goodies for my daughter and they had 4 options. GF apple muffins and chocolate cookies were the best, other 2 we tried were just okay if a bit on the overly sweet side. Cardamom croissant was very good, light and fluffy, but could definitely use more cardamom flavor. Was most disappointed with the almond croissant - it was very heavy, dense and oily and pretty much inedible for me. Would’ve asked to swap for something else but we did takeaway so could not.

Drove 9h from Indy and stopped here before checking in to our hotel. Got there about 40 minutes before they closed so the selection was limited. Got the chocolate almond raspberry croissant and it was awesome. We decided to stop by the next morning on our way to Monticello and order a bunch of other good pastries. They had a strawberry version instead of the raspberry version the next day. IMO the raspberry version was 10x better. The other pastries were just as delicious. My boys loved the chocolate croissant because it was soooo buttery. The staff were super friendly and the environment was cute and clean.

The bagels are moist, freshly made , and delicious. They have a variety of schmears and bagels. You can order any protein to make a sanwich. I happen to order their pastrami with egg and cheese. Absolutely worth every cent. They allow you to customize any sandwich with different condiments, cheeses, or spreads. Their are 3 different locations. All of them are in Charlottsville. You will not regret stopping by.

I recently visited the Bodo’s on Preston and ordered a bagel to go. When I got home, I was horrified to find a huge clump of hair baked right into my food. It was absolutely revolting. For a restaurant with such a great reputation, this shows shockingly low standards of cleanliness and food safety. I even left a voicemail for management, but never received a response. I hope management takes this as a wake-up call to fix their health practices immediately.

Staple of C-ville, Bodo's has the best bagels around. Love the jalapeno lime cream cheese on everything or onion bagel. Pro tip, if you're taking out and weather is nice, take your food over to the Rotunda near by at UVA for a great place to sit and have a bite.

We are trying breakfast at this restaurant for the first time, and my husband and I really liked it. I chose a sesame bagel, and it was delicious.

Went with the family on a Sunday morning. It was packed, but the line moved fast. Everyone enjoyed their orders. If you’re traveling through, the food is worth the detour. Also, Go Hokies!

My Boyfriend use to go to UVA AND HE RAVED ABOUT BODOS. We took me here!!! We had bacon, egg and cheese, plain bagel, and I had the lox everything bagel!! Coffee was good too! We bought 1/2 a dozen bagels to take home!! Ahhsooo good! Oh we also got (after we finished our breakfast ) a Tuna on everything with lettuce and tomato!!!!! MONEY! On point so good

I love this place! The bagels are delicious and flavorful, and always cooked perfectly, and the bagel sandwich options are extensive. They're very busy during breakfast and lunch hours, but don't let long lines discourage you too much - they are very efficient. With a line out the door, I've been in and out in 10 minutes with special order sandwiches.

Great spot for a meal & to visit. They serve all day breakfast choices- friends enjoyed veggie omelet with potatoes, onions & peppers… while the other had the classic with fresh blueberries added on top of pancakes. I enjoyed a special - fish tacos with mango salsa- delicious! Generous portions & nice staff.

Came here with my wife for lunch and sat outside in the patio area. I got the meatloaf sandwich and it was solid, I wouldn’t say it was mindblowing but it was good. My wife got the chorizo breakfast bowl and it was massive and she was happy with it. There was also a random man playing the saxophone outside not connected to the restaurant that was kind of nice. The inside area also looked cool though we did not eat there.

••FULL MENU AVAILABLE ALL DAY•• Extensive menu of food options that are inclusive of dietary restrictions. I appreciate the rainbow flag at the bar as well as the "ANYBODY" sign on the bathroom door. The place might benefit from having a changing table in the bathroom (maybe to the left of the paper towels) because currently there is no fold-down table option for changing diapers. Pricing is a tad bit high if you are hoping for a more affordable place to go, but the portions are decent and the experience of going downtown and having a more relaxed morning--especially if you get the luxury of eating outside, make it worth the money. Check the back of the menu for kids menu and weekly specials!

I recently dined at The Nook, located in the historic downtown mall of Charlottesville, and it was a delightful experience. The outdoor seating area was clean and inviting, with a thoughtful water bowl for dogs, making it a perfect spot for pet owners. The standout dish was the Berries & Cream Stuffed French Toast—classic artisan bread filled with sweet mascarpone cream cheese and macerated strawberries, all topped with a blueberry-strawberry medley. It was, without a doubt, the best French toast I’ve ever had: perfectly cooked and deliciously sweet. The service was exceptional, with our waitress being incredibly friendly and attentive. If you’re looking for a charming brunch spot with fantastic food and a welcoming atmosphere, The Nook is a must-visit.

Have been here before and had a great breakfast. Today however the food was bad. Pancakes didn't taste good, biscuits and gravy were disconnected in the flavors and very butter forward. The charizo bowl was lack luster too. Our waitress was super sweet and nice but the lady at the door who we asked for the check from didn't even apologize when we said the food wasn't good and to please have the check. Except for our waitress the staff looked beat down and not happy to be there. Kind of like the food lol. I hope they turn it around, this used to be pretty tasty for breakfast

We picked here without knowing much about it. There was a small wait to be seated. The food was excellent. The menu is fun. Not wild but different and the items that may seem simple are prepared excellently, making for an excellent experience. The space is beautiful. We thought the prices were reasonable. We absolutely look forward to eating here again.

Such a great spot for some classic (and not so classic) breakfast food. Who can say no to a breakfast burrito that also has tater tots in it?? It’s one of those spots that you want to save space for dessert based on the nice handwritten specials out front and home made pie. Do yourself a favor and come hungry!

We were looking for a quick one night getaway, and Oakhurst looked super cute online! Check in was quick and the staff was helpful. We had to pay for valet, but I then read there's free parking in the circle? If we had known that was an option we would have parked ourselves. We were given a room upgrade which gave us additional space that we greatly appreciated! The room itself lacked luster and was overall just okay. We were given stained towels and our bedsheets had multiple rips/holes. We were told check out was at 11am and after getting in late we slept in, I was in the shower a little after 9am and room service comes in to start cleaning the room! After realizing we were still there they did leave, but this left me feeling very uncomfortable. We quickly packed up our things and checked out. We felt the hotel was extremely over priced given our experience.

This is a quiet oasis in a now-bustling, formerly sleepy town. As close to the University as one could get. Friendly staff, capable bartender, live jazz, excellent cafe. Sure, it's quirky, and that is part of the charm. Kudos to staff and management who quickly and fairly resolved an issue with the room.

Beautiful hotel with unique charm! Every staff member we interacted with was beyond pleasant. The heated pool, sauna, and live jazz made for the most relaxing evening. Our room was spacious and had many windows. Our room smelled musty, but this is kind of expected with an old building.

Overall, the experience was okay. The bar was not open but it was advertised that it would be until 9. The room was smaller than expected. There was no exhaust fan in the bathroom, so it was damp. The A/C unit was leaking water and turned off in the early hours of the morning. There were dead bugs in the light. The blinds didn't work. The staff forgot 2 times that there was a late check out. The staff was overall pleasant and helpful.

Spent $600 to be put in a basement room. The bedroom windows looked out onto a wall/alley, no natural light or view at all. No glassware or mini fridge in the room. Maybe other rooms are nicer but the one I got was definitely not worth the exorbitant price and I don’t think rooms should vary that significantly.

The rooms had a beautiful boutique aesthetic, everything was very clean and organized. The staff was *amazing* (shout-out to Lauren and Eric for the lovely conversation) and that's not even mentioning the location. Lots of hiking nearby, tons of nature, like an oasis from the day to day. Will definitely return!

I called the Oakhurst Inn the day before my wife was arriving and asked if I could set up a little surprise in her room. Lauren and Devin were super helpful and made it really easy to pull off over the phone. Just really kind, thoughtful service. We’ve stayed here before for our anniversary and have always had a great experience. The rooms are great, the location is perfect—right by UVA and everything’s walkable. Honestly just one of our favorite spots in Charlottesville. Big thanks again to Lauren and Devin for going the extra mile.

We absolutely love Chickadee. It’s hard to choose what to order because their menu is small, but very mighty! We’ve been pleased with everything we’ve ordered, from coffee/cold brew to entrees to alcoholic drinks. It’s quickly become our favorite brunch spot, and we are folks who eat a lot of brunch!

This little place is a gem. The people are very friendly and the food is delicious. The sub rolls are fantastic and the fries are really good. I'm vegetarian so I haven't tried the whole menu but the options for me are all quite tasty.

Delicious food, fantastic service and I appreciate the attention to detail about my food allergy. The grits tots are a game changer - my husband doesn’t usually eat grits - but these cubes of scrumptiousness won him over.

The best restaurant in Charlottesville- I want to say that right out of the gate for anyone trying to figure out where to go and doesn't want to read a long review, so go, go now. Order the turkey sandwich, or the Italian. The menu names are over-the-top creative- a conceit I grew weary of twenty years ago- but this food is so good that it can bear the weight of my world-weary cynicism and I can order a sandwich called "The drum fill form In the Air Tonight" with more than just a straight face, but with an eager smile. The options are not simple- there is nary an offering that doesn't sport half a dozen components, but before you start trying to edit the text, just give it a read the way it's intended. These people know what they're doing. It's not just food they're making, it's culinary poetry. Now the details. My first five times at this place were carry-out at work, and five times in a row I had exclaimed, "this is the best sandwich in Charlottesville," and later, in all honestly, "This is the best sandwich I've ever had!" I am not being hyperbolic. I truly believe it. The ingredients colorful, even jarring, almost peacocking to see which one is either the more luxurious or the more madcap (bologna I'm looking at you). But I'll paraphrase the song "The Waters of March," IT'S THE BREAD, IT'S THE BREAD. The bread, made in-house with what must be oppressive regularity to the baker, is rich and aromatic, delicate and hearty at the same time, and it holds up to both the fireworks show of ingredients and to any of the sandwiches' residual moisture content (carryout people, you know the sorrow wet bread- here it's a bonus). The restaurant is pristine in the way only a new place can be, but it's maintained. I went in right after the brunch rush and it might as well have been freshly opened. Bathrooms- top notch. Finally staff- as I said we came in after what was likely a busy Sunday brunch, but the entire FOH was involved, efficient and ran the floor with an informal teamwork that was- to this industry vet- a delight to see. As first time dine-in-ers we were given some extra attention but it was never more than was welcome. Finally- great drinks! Strong, pretty drinks! This review has gone on long enough, and I hesitated to write it. I dread the day I have to wait in line for my favorite restaurant, but better wait in line for an AJ Soprano (yep), than to never have one again. You have been warned. BEST RESTAURANT IN CHARLOTTESVILLE.

The Grit tots are crisped perfectly on the outside, and not over-seasoned. They maintain their grit essence while elevating the holy southern grit to new heights, and this is elevated by the pepper jelly they’re served with. Highly recommend.

Delicious food. Fun decor. Great service. Parking can be a little tricky. The music was a little loud for being able to hear each other talking. Seating area is somewhat small. The staff was great and the food was fun, unique, and fresh.

As much as I miss the former tenant, Bluegrass, I’ve got to say - Welcome Chickadee, glad to have you! I’ve been several times for brunch and lunch and haven’t had a bad meal yet! Love the outdoor seating and the selection offered. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a good breakfast/brunch/lunch downtown!

Cute little place with plenty of seating and wifi. Smoothies used very fresh ingredients. Planning to come back for their sandwiches!

Chocolate matcha power ball tastes like a decadent moist cake ball yet somehow it’s healthy?!?! I’m certainly not going to check but I can’t recommend it enough. The Blue Ridge Berry Smoothie was kind of flavorless tho not enough fruit or too much spinach/avocado diluting taste - I would get a diff smoothie or customize one

Fantastic food; ordering apps that work seamlessly, incredible efficiency, friendly staff. An amazing dining experience! A wee bit pricey, but high-quality food, so worth it IMO.

I was looking for a healthy breakfast after my cycle workout and this was absolute perfection. I had the avocado toast with lox (they even have gluten free options, which I had) with a smoothie. It was delightful and the ambiance is super fresh. Go experience it for yourself :-)

Healthy, gluten free options. I’ve never had any that wasn’t delicious from here. This is my go to breakfast when I stay here.

Great açaí bowl spot in town. Had some delish avocado toast as well. Great, friendly customer service (free cookie!!) as well. Love this place!

Please try adding a date topping option! Rlly good bowls :))

The service was great for sure. The food was complicated. The cauliflower was too greasy and oily… kinda ironic as a vegetarian tapas. The firecracker shrimp was pretty good, so was the Thai chicken spring rolls. We also tried the Duck noodles. It’s kinda interesting to use oyster sauce and duck at the same dish, but not bad, I really liked the noodle texture.

Nice spot and very vegetarian friendly! Great flavors, each dish packs a punch. Service was fast and efficient.

Absolutely loved our evening! The steamed buns were perfectly soft and flavorful, and the tapas were creative, well-seasoned, and beautifully presented. Every dish was a treat, and the cozy, vibrant atmosphere added to the experience. Service was attentive and friendly too. A must-visit if you're in Charlottesville and love trying a variety of bold flavors!

We had a fantastic Sunday dinner at Bang! The food and drinks were excellent. We ordered from the vegetarian menu and tried the Mushroom and Sesame Tofu Buns (mushroom was the standout), General Tso Cauliflower, Goat Cheese Dumplings, and Tempura Sweet Potatoes with Feta—all were delicious. Mango Mule and Bourbon Ginger Honey cocktails were strong and tasty. For dessert, the key lime cheesecake had a nice subtle lime flavor and it was pretty good Our server, Cameron, was helpful and provided great service. We sat outdoors and place had nice decor. Highly recommend!

great place for tapas!! every dish was yummy, and so were the drinks. i would definitely try the baos here (fried chicken bao was surprisingly good), the dumplings, and the noodle dishes.

We had an amazing experience at Bang! They had so many vegetarian options, actually a dedicated menu section for it, which we particularly enjoyed! Shout out to Cameron, who took great care of us and was forthcoming with suggestions. We tried Mushroom and Sesame Tofu Buns, General Tso Cauliflower, Goat Cheese Dumplings, Tempura sweet potatoes. All the food was amazing!! The cocktails were unbelievably good and really strong! They do not skimp!!! We tried the Not your Mother’s Mule and Bourbon Ginger Honey. Both were top! Key Lime Cheesecake was delicious too for dessert. Would highly recommend..

I love bang. I tell everyone it's one of my favorite restaurants. I'm leaving a bad review, because I'm here and the dining room is full and one girl is working the floor by herself. I also own a restaurant and I understand that payroll is difficult but it's pretty frustrating to not be able to get waited on (I had to go and find her after being ignored for about 15 minutes), not be able to get a check (come find her when I'd ask for the check 10 minutes ago) when I ask for a check. I'm here for the Film fest, and they can know months in advance when the film fest is going to be and have appropriate staff. I understand that they can pay them $2.19 or whatever and have them work the floor and put all the money into the kitchen staff, but it's pretty frustrating from a customer's perspective. I am leaving a bad review even though I love the restaurant because I want the owners to see this. I want to come to bang! every time I come to Charlottesville because it's cool. I like the vibe. But eventually . . . I won't come.

I hate to say it because I was expecting more but it was gross. I had the old dirty; There was absolutely zero flavor. The chicken was dry, the breading was overwhelmingly thick and falling off, and all I could taste was pepper. Absolutely zero seasoning. The fries weren't cooked all the way and were barely seasoned, I couldn't eat them and gave them to my husband. He ordered the Cuban. He said it was ordinary, nothing to right home about. He ordered extra meat and if that was extra, there must be no meat on the sandwich because it was skinny. Overall it was extremely expensive being as we paid 40$ for a chicken thigh and the smallest pork sandwich of anyone's life. I would not recommend stopping for food.

We're in town for our son's baseball tournament so we took our food to go, but it was a cool atmosphere inside and we would have enjoyed dining in. From the second we walked through the door the staff was welcoming and friendly. They have homemade sauces and took time to talk to me about them. We ordered breakfast: biscuits and gravy and a sausage breakfast burrito. Both dishes were so good. The burrito has potatoes in it and they were delicious, and so was the sausage! The portions were very generous. I'm looking forward to going back next time we're in town!

Got the Royal Flush - fed the entire family and was amazing! The food was very delicious, the biscuits light and flavorful and the meat portions were generous and delicious.

Over all great experience. Food was great and the portion size was huge. We both got the Old Dirty with hash browns. All in all great experience.

I heard/read nothing but good reviews about this spot and was really excited to try it. I went there on a Saturday night around 6:15-6:30, knowing what their hours were. Their open sign was turned on and visible from the outdoors. We went inside and the staff members had prematurely started closing down for the night. They all seemed visibly shocked/irritated about us being there, all because they started to close down early and had mentally checked out for the night. We ordered our food and sat down and then either the owner or manager came up to us and patronized us about how the restaurant closes at 7. This all happened with at least 20 minutes to burn until 7pm. Didn’t even thank us for coming by or properly greet us, just told us they closed at 7 and walked out the door to leave for the night. If he wasn’t gonna stick around, then why did it even matter? This made us feel unwelcome and like we were being forced out. The bbq itself was quite good and I wanna try more of their menu options, but feel reluctant about going back after this experience. A customer should never feel guilty or rushed out just because they show up less than an hour before the restaurant closes. Disappointing that this is my first impression of a spot that I was genuinely excited to try.

We are so glad we chose Ace Biscuit & Barbecue to cater our wedding reception for us. We received many compliments on the food and enjoyed it very much ourselves! Ace provided a beautiful pig roast, a variety of their standard meats and sides (the mac and cheese was especially delicious and very popular!), and--upon request--a vegetarian option in the form of truly scrumptious smoked tofu. The Ace staff were fantastic to work with--Lauren, our main contact, was very communicative and worked with us over many weeks to create a package that we were happy with--and the fellows working the smoker were very good with the kids at our reception, who were of course fascinated by the pig roast! And the fact that Ace pulled off catering our very large event (400+ guests) within weeks of the devastating vandalism to their location, including their kitchen--and over a month before they officially reopened--speaks very strongly in their favor. We would heartily recommend Ace for anyone looking for catering services in the area, or just anywhere to stop by for a good meal!

Ordered the pulled chicken sandwich, but it was very disappointing. The chicken was oddly pink, mushy, and tasted like canned meat. The sandwich wasn’t assembled, the bread was not toasted and completely soggy from the juices. Definitely not what I expected from something labeled as a “sando.”

It was our first time having lunch at Boylan Heights with the family, and we really enjoyed it. We loved the open-air atmosphere — it was so nice to enjoy a meal while feeling the breeze and watching a basketball game on TV. The kids were especially excited to see a train go by — that was a fun and unexpected highlight for them! One small thing: The vegetarian burger I had that day was a bit dry and harder than what I’ve had elsewhere. I’m not sure if that’s how it’s usually served, but it didn’t affect our overall great experience. We’ll definitely be back again!

Chicken was moist and flavorful with a light and crispy breading. I had the BOMB or burger of the month, called Kickin’ Chicken, which is fried chicken on a brioche roll topped with Cole slaw and aioli with hot sauce on the side. My wife had the loaded nachos, which were very good. They made a grill cheese sandwich on good bread for my son. It was terrific—he ate both halves. A bit noisy so we ate outside.

Walking around campus as students were coming back to school we decided to check out the burgers at this place. There are 2 floors with the downstairs open for lunch. The burgers were ok. I don't think they were anything amazing. There were only 2 people waiting on tables and staff had to run up to the kitchen (2nd floor) to get food. The meal took a long time as they were short-staffed.

Visiting UVA. Decided to have lunch on the corner. Boylan was great. Started with draft beers with many to choose from. Easy choice on the appetizer with cheese sticks. They were the same cheese sticks you get at just about every bar, tasty but nothing special. We did two build-to-order burgers. They were juicy, good flavor and cooked just right. Nice fresh toppings. One also ordered from their brunch menu. Great sandwich. Our server was a little stretched because they were busier than expected but she worked very hard to take good care of everyone. Will definitely be back the next time we're in town. Fun first visit to UVA and "the corner."

I came here for a quick bite and drink to sit out and enjoy the sun. The waitress was very nice. Beer selection was a decent mix of a few locals and commercial beers. Wings were good and so were the "Afternoon Special" chicken bites.

Overall experience was awesome. We tried wahoo for our drinks. Room 121 for our burgers. Curly fries were awesome too. The servers were very friendly and overall distanced tables and the fact that they opened all the walls to ventilate the area was also a plus. During this pandemic I recommend this place because they are doing what they can to keep the people and the area safe. I loved the fact that hand sanitizers were placed in middle so you can always use it. Thank you also Aimee for making awesome experience =)

Great meaty burgers, but I prefer Riverside lunch overall for Cville burgers. Had a Room 121 w double beef. Beef ever so slightly dry and/or overcooked for my liking but still great. Curly fries delicious. Huge serving. A few beers and watched the NBA east finals game 1. Waitress was very attentive and friendly. A few times they forgot to put the sound on and had music on instead - i like the idea of putting on music during ad breaks though. Massive big screen and a number of other standard screens. Great college vibe.

First timers! We loves this place, fresh bagels with whatever staffing you would like. Great place for a quick bite during the UVA tour. Chicken salad was a hit, regular sandwich was good as well. Choices of cold lemonade and orange juice were a plus for the hot day. Coffee was perfect flavor balanced.

Exceptionally good!! Best bagels I’ve ever eaten

Food is very fresh and decent. They don’t have much more than bagels and some cold sandwiches, somehow their menu leaves me all confused. Anyway, my egg sandwich was hot and satisfying.

I love their fresh warm sesame bagels either with cream cheese or as a sandwich, good value for excellent meal. Coffee is ok, refill is only 56 cents so eat there to make the coffee value better. Or down the first cup there and refill on the way out. Long lines go quickly. The location on the corner is the nicest. The drive thru on Emmet is convenient.

So many options and ways to create your own custom bagel sandwich. The location is also very nicely situated to enjoy breakfast and a stroll.

So from the beginning I felt rushed by the staff. As I try to look at the menu they keep asking if u want to order, I was looking for less than 2 minutes with no one in line behind me. 2nd the inside of bagel was raw. I don’t understand how a bagel place can screw up a bagel. 3rd I recommend you never go here unless you want food poisoning.

Bodo’s had great bagels, but I didn’t love the cream cheese. The bagels were cooked perfectly, but the cream cheese was way too runny. I also would prefer that they cut the bagels in half after putting on cream cheese to make it easier to eat. The staff was super nice and the prices were very reasonable. Also, great mirror to snap a quick selfie so I could tell my parents I was eating a bagel.

Had high hopes for this place since it is supposed to be a high end coffee roaster. Only one person working, and he was in no hurry. Someone asked if he was all by himself, he replied that someone was in back but he as “fine. We purchased two drinks and two pounds of coffee. Asked for extra hot…and waited and waited. An attractive young woman came in and got her coffee immediately. Finally the saw us sitting there and said “what did you have” and pointed to a coffee on the counter that had been sitting there for 5 min (and never been told) and the second was almost ready. Flavor was good but both were lukewarm, as was our experience for $60

We were passing through Charlottesville before our tour of Monticello and were looking for a coffee shop with a historic slice of life and charming vibe. We stopped at the right place. Our barista was a coffee connoisseur who educated us on flavor profiles. We're not that picky, so we both had the caramel latte and got some banana bread. The only thing I would say is that it's a little pricey, around $30 for the two of us. However, it was good coffee and a great atmosphere in a great location. We loved the warm, cozy decor and the paintings of different places. It looks like a popular place because there were consistent customers, but it never felt crowded because of the openness of the room and people getting things to go. I recommend dining in because of the chill vibe. If we're ever passing through, we'll probably come back.

A few friends and I stopped by here to get some work done before an evening concert. This was a great place to post up, they have fast wifi, lots of seating, and easily accessible outlets. They also have lots of natural light. The coffee was great tasting as well, though I felt they added a bit too much ice.

Mudhouse Coffee Roasters is such a gem in Charlottesville. The coffee is always rich, smooth, and full of flavor—you can tell they really care about quality. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. The staff are friendly and make you feel right at home. Definitely one of the best coffee spots in town!

I stopped for coffee and breakfast. I am on Keto. They don't offer sugar free syrup for flavored coffees but do have sweeteners for regular coffees. They were very helpful in offering to serve me an egg with cheese and bacon since I can't have other things on their menu. Very nice staff.

My girlfriend and I recently stayed near this coffee shop during our trip to Virginia. I would’ve given this coffee shop 10 stars, if I could! The coffee was consistently great everyday. A rarity, in my humble opinion. The service was even better! As someone who truly loves quality coffee and attention to detail, I cannot recommend this Mudhouse Specialty Coffee Roasters enough!

I’m in love and I may literally never leave, sitting cross cross on a wooden window seat with pillows. Sigh! The barista was kind and knowledgeable, handling a long line alone with ease and grace and not turning away our pour over request. My vanilla oatmilk latte was absolutely delicious. Top 2 in the state I’ve had so far… lip smacking delicious. The pour over was great as well! The vibe is chill…not pretentious at all. Clientele on a Friday morning was a nice mix of all very sweet people…holding doors for one another, kiddos, people working, etc. My only regret is that I don’t live closer to come more often!!

Oakhurst inn is my favorite place in Charlottesville for a nice brunch, coffee or lunch. The food is very tasteful and the staff is amazing. A special mention for Kay who’s been working there for a while and who remembered me after a year spent abroad. Cheyenne and Sarai are also adorable and very welcoming. This place feels like home and I am so happy to be back. I’m a big fan of their granola, if I may suggest some extra yoghurt would be great. Love their chèvre salad, it’s simply amazing and their avocado toast. To be honest, everything tastes great!

I went here for brunch to celebrate my birthday, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I found the location to be cute, affordable, and the food was very tasty. Great quality and unique flavors. The beignets were delicious! A must have. I enjoyed their locally brewed kombucha. The atmosphere was much louder and more boisterous than I would have imagined on a Sunday at noon. It was hard to hear my family talk at the little table we were squeezed into. The service was great, and I think that in the future I would sit outside because sound really carries in the little cottage. We made a reservation in advance.

Cute restaurant and the food was amazing. Brunch at Oakhurst Inn is an absolute treat. The burger was phenomenal—juicy, flavorful, and elevated by a rich onion jam that hit all the right notes. The fried chicken sandwich was another highlight: perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with a hot sauce that brought just the right amount of heat and tang. The beignets were a delightful surprise—pillowy soft and paired beautifully with citrus and raspberry jam. Pair that with a light, crisp mimosa and you’ve got yourself a perfect morning. Parking is stress-free thanks to the adjacent garage, and if the weather’s nice, definitely opt for a table outside. The patio is peaceful and adds so much charm to the experience. A must-visit brunch spot in town.

I just moved to the area and saw this place on my way to work, so I decided to swing in with a friend. It’s a quaint inn that gave cozy vibes. We went on a Friday morning at 8:30 so it wasn’t crowded. First of all, Kay and Cheyanne are so amazing. They gave such good recommendations, I went for the seasonal coffee that was honey/almond/blueberry and the avocado toast. The coffee blew me away with how creamy it was, despite being dairy free???!!! I’m super picky about my milk, I’m a firm believer that coffee should be served with full fat milk, so with this drink I was beyond impressed. I also looked at my bill and they didn’t charge me for the drink??? So generous of them😭❤️ As for the avocado toast, I took a leap of faith and went with Kay’s recommendation, and it didn’t disappoint. I never order this at a restaurant (they just tend to be overpriced and nothing special), but the marinated tomatoes and flakey sour dough sounded so good and it exceeded my expectations. Definitely would come back and order the same items because I just loved them so much, but also excited to explore the menu more. Come here for the best service, delicious food, and a cozy place to catch up with some friends on a slow morning.

Good food and nice ambiance, but be prepared to wait. We had made a reservation for 11 am, but had to wait till 11:25 to be seated, 11:35 to place an order, and 12:10 to get our food. We hoped that the food would be worth the wait as the presentation and reviews we had seen online were stellar. But sadly, after waiting, the food arrived to our table at room temperature. I wouldn't blame it on the waitress since she was alone handling everything, but maybe it would be helpful to get a second waiter because looking around, the other tables were also waiting and commenting how slow everything was. There is free parking for one hour in the next door garage but given that service takes a long time, you will have to pay for parking. Otherwise, the ambiance is nice and the flavor of the food decent.

Was one of my most memorable cafe experience. Great ambiance and awesome customer service! Must visit if you are around the UVA area at Charlottesville!

The tastiest! The coffee drinks are on point, freshest healthy breakfast fare, adorable old house vibes, and friendliest staff. Very pleased.

We celebrated my daughter's recent nuptials with dinner at Birch + Bloom this past Saturday. I want to truly commend the Valet staff for making us feel welcomed. Everyone one of them showed exemplary customer service as we arrived and upon our departure. We had a big party so we were seated in the private dining room, which was beautiful. The host was very nice, as was our server, who showed our entire party her utmost patience. Speaking only to my order: the French 75 and the St. Louis Ribs were good. The Crab Cake was cold, and only one side was browned. Being from the DMV, where we love a good crab cake, I was disappointed. The Steak Frites...well...the fries and horseradish salsa verde were good! The steak...not good at all. I also ordered the Fried Brussels Sprouts. I didn't like the lemon dressing at all. In my opinion, it ruined the dish. They had so much of it smothered on top of the Brussels Sprouts.😫 They would've been better without it. Other orders: two of my daughter's ordered the Stringozzi Duck Ragú and they really liked it. My mother had the Chicken-Fried Monkfish. I tasted it and thought it was just ok, but needed some salt. Many other things were ordered throughout the party, and the general consensus from everyone was that the food was just ok. A return visit is questionable, just based on the food. If I were basing it on the staff, it would be an immediate yes!

Great atmosphere! The restaurant is open to the guest lobby for the hotel though so factor that into your decision. Our waiter was very kind. My husband's chicken was a little bit burnt around the edges and my cauliflower steak was well seasoned, but cold. They have excellent mocktails for all of my alcohol-free/ pregnant friends! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his Bourbon Bloom cocktail. I've included a picture of the mocktail with my review. I would go back simply for the ricotta appetizer and drinks alone.

Located inside the Kimpton Forum Hotel on the UVa campus, this spot is such a gem! The shareable cinnamon bun is a must try, warm, gooey, and absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, offering great recommendations. I can’t wait to go back and try the pancakes next time!

This restaurant is located on UV campus in the Forum Hotel. We came on a Sunday for brunch and they were a bit short staffed. But it was clean and nicely lit. The biggest looked really great but we decided to opt for omelettes off the menu. They were delayed in providing coffee and the manager came to apologize for delays. There were no spoons provided despite several requests. The setting was nice on couch booths. Once the food arrived we were very pleased. The price was moderate for incredibly delicious omelettes with fresh vegetables. The fruit was fresh and everything including pancakes were delicious.

Was really disappointed in the so-called overpriced pastrami hash. Literally 12 little pieces of fried out meat, giant hunks of potato and totally overdone hard poached eggs. Server was slow and so soft cooked we had to ask her to repeat everything. Won’t go back.

This was my second time for dinner and Randy is truly amazing. There were several things that made this experience stellar. Offering the perfect wine as I transitioned from my starter to my main, making the desserts sound irresistible, and providing a lemon zest with my espresso. Just for a moment I was transported to Italy! Not just a meal but a true dining experience. Thank you!

The bar was a perfect place to dine. We enjoyed two evenings with Bartender Extraordinaire, Randy, and we could not have been more pleased. The food was excellent- Ribs, half chicken, crab cakes, etc... Randy was always smiling and made many recommendations. We will definitely be back! Thanks for a great experience, Randy!

The employee who took my order was fine. The smoothie was lackluster. The space is cute. Location great. Smoothie bowl? Oooof: The granola was soggy, blueberries mushy like they were frozen and then thawed out. The smoothie itself was almost liquid?—almost like they had made it in advance and just stuck it in a fridge? Who knows. Expected my smoothie bowl to be made fresh since I ordered in but that clearly wasn’t the case.

This is my go-to breakfast spot!! I love the Monster smoothie bowl, the granola is my favorite part, and the bananas are always exactly as I love them! But every thing I’ve tried so far is delicious, definitely can’t go wrong and I love that everything is plant-based and good for the earth 😊

Contemporary, cozy place with great selection of healthy beverages, smoothies, and more. Hosted by friendly staff and wait time is small even in the busy times of day. Free WiFi for those who dine in.

Nice vibe and the staff was helpful and attentive. They have a nice selection, however, I feel it is overpriced. I have NO issues spending money on healthy things that go in my body, but I felt that $11 for this N5 and $9+ for my wife's smoothie was a bit extreme. The flavor was good, but I'll continue making my smoothies at home.

The staff are always great, they make the experience always pleasurable. I love the vegan, zero waste, and recycling encouragement. Really makes me feel good when I can be guilt free when it comes to diet and waste!

The friendly staff makes for a family atmosphere. You can really taste the difference in the top quality, fresh ingredients. They have plenty of options for any taste preference. The store is beautiful inside & out.

I go every time I come to charlottesville! All the food is amazing, healthy, gluten free and vegan!

stopped for a bite at Belle, we got the Croque Monsieur and it was delicious! The English muffins and hand pies were also top notch! (we got a couple things from Ciaccia next door as well 🤣) service was very friendly too. we'll be back!

Wonderful late breakfast stop for us on our way to Harrisonburg. Sourdough like this is almost impossible to find. And I say this out of experience. I live in Germany and have been making my own sourdough bread for several years now. This place is worth a visit!

Lovely spot in. Belmont. Plenty of seating outside. You order your food at the counter which also had a showcase of delicious patisserie items. Great tasting bread too.

Per usual, Belle’s French Toast (currently with berry compote) turned OUT. Amazing taste, great coffee shop atmosphere. Easy to hold conversations and to work in if needed. Thank you Belle, for continuing to hold your charm!

Belle is such a wonderful space! Something for everyone from their delicious breakfast offerings to a variety of options on their dinner menu in a quaint welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend this place to everyone! (Plus their outdoor patio is great!) John and Scott have curated a wonderful addition to the Belmont restaurant scene, our waiter Alex was so nice and made my friends birthday very special with the candle on her desert! Also, the wine selection was superb and our cocktails were amazing!

We had a mixed experience at this brunch spot. The coffee was great—definitely recommend it! The avocado toast was also tasty. However, the French toast was undercooked and not enjoyable, and the All-American breakfast felt a bit too small for the price. The food quality was hit or miss for us.

I want to like this place and support it regularly, but they make it tough. Hit and miss with food, operations and service are mediocre at best. Good location, standard hipster design, food can be good but often just okay, and properly over priced with up to 30% tip options on the flip around. Last experience will likely be the last. Sunday, 1:00 p.m. almost as long of a line to order as people seated. Once I get to the counter see that for a busy weekend Sunday they have put a novice at the till. Go to order. And they are out of this out of that. No avocados, which are on half their menu options. And not serving lunch even though their website says they do on a Sunday. Stood in line for 30 minutes to have to walk out cuz they only had three brunch sandwiches and options out of their full menu. Save yourself some time and money. Go to Tillman's or Marie Bette instead for better ingredients competent service, and an operation that cares about the customer experience.

Incredible! Best biscuit sandwiches in town and the fried chicken was perfection. Also the cookies are so good! Baked to order so they came out hot and gooey in the center. The lady behind the counter was also super warm and welcoming. Please come check this place out! Perfect for an indulgent meal.

Hands down the best fried chicken and biscuit in town. The biscuits are insane — buttery, flaky, and just the right amount of crisp on the outside. I had the Fried Chicken Biscuit with hot honey, and it was perfect. The staff was friendly, and the vibe was relaxed but upbeat. You can tell everything is made with care. Definitely coming back soon (probably way too often)

AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS FOOD! I love the idea of several styles of food under one roof. We ordered the best wedge salad we’ve ever had and the chicken sliders are incredible! They’ve also figured out a way to offer a green bean salad that makes you love eating veggies. Yum! The warm cookies are heavenly... this spot is so convenient and I see myself quickly becoming a regular.

This place has been around for two years and nobody knows about this wonderful place ! It is a little intimidating, but one you enter in , it's amazing world inside! To say this place is somewhat confusing and complex is an understatement : Case in point- This is there opening statement. Multiverse Kitchens is a digital food hall that's home to seven different restaurants--Fowl Mouthed Chicken, Firebox, Brookville Biscuit + Brunch, Keevil Tea Room, Smashing Salads, Long Strange Chip, and Toad in the Hole--all designed using local ingredients and recipes that are meant to travel. Order curbside pick-up or delivery from one or all of our restaurants, so that everyone in your family can get what they love. That's what we call infinite possibilities. Lol! A tab much ! But Chéf and owner is nowhere as complicated! ! A very humble and wonderful person! Here we go! I ordered a chicken biscuit! It was over the top! They best I have had in cville! The biscuit was a square biscuit similar to a butter swim biscuit ( look it up) but constructed a tad different! I very serious construct! The boneless skinless thigh was perfectly breaded and cooked fresh! A little bit of honey to add sweetness! This not a handwich. You much enjoy this with a knife and fork. At the end use a spoon to scoop up the goodness! I didn't think this could get any better! They had real hot tea service! Earl tea was performed perfectly! Harrison ( who is British) the chef explained that the tea was an omage to his dad that enjoyed tea time often! The place is a very family and personal ! The decor was very contemporary! It your looking for the fried chicken in cville hands down, this place is it ! Good price also! Say hello to Mary for me! examen des cols bleus:x

A proper southern biscuit and fried chicken! Staff was nice and accommodating. 5/5 definitely plan on returning with a larger group. Thanks chef!

Multiverse Kitchens has THE BEST chicken and waffles hands down. I travel for work and have had my fair share of chicken and waffles throughout the country and no one perfects the fluffiness of the waffle as well as the crunch of the chicken quite like Harrison does. Definitely worth the stop if you are in the area looking for great food!

We had biscuits with jam, the breakfast biscuit sandwiches with sausage, the BFP chocolate chip pancake (huge!) and So-co grilled cheese with apple butter, so good. And… French press coffee. Everything was absolutely delicious. Servings are large… biscuits are delicious and fluffy. Sausage so good. Service was great. The restaurant is clean and bright with an adorable poppy mural. You won’t regret a visit there for breakfast/brunch!

Milk & Honey is my favorite brunch spot; the ones in the MD area are anyway. I was so excited to try this one out. I was really disapponted! I got the traditional breakfast, I asked for cheese in my eggs, they used white cheese…so nasty. My daughter got the chicken sandwich and it was dark meat 🤮. She said the texture didn’t taste right. She took it to go but threw it away. Our waitress was nice. I will likely not return here again.

Real nice atmosphere and great service. The chicken wing appetizer was really good. The steak was fantastic and cooked perfectly. The side of candied yams were kind of bland tasting. Overall pretty good food and service and will definitely visit again.

Food was good ambience was great US Bank. I felt I was a little underdressed, but my wife, for surely I was fine. I had the Biscoff waffles with the chicken thighs. Very good. I wanted another waffle when I was done my wife had the salmon with the asparagus and a Biscoff martini which she enjoyed very much We had the fried deviled eggs, which were immaculate. I will be back.

My wife and I recently visited Milk and Honey in Charlottesville, and overall, we had a pleasant experience with a few notes for next time. First impressions were strong — the restaurant is beautifully decorated, with a clean, welcoming atmosphere that instantly set the tone for a good meal. The staff was courteous, and the food presentation was excellent across the board. I ordered the chicken and waffles, opting to switch out the standard fried chicken thighs for the Honey Old Bay wings. In hindsight, I wouldn’t make that choice again. While the wings had good flavor, they lacked the crispiness I was hoping for, and the generous amount of sauce ended up soaking into the waffle. The result? A waffle that tasted more like Honey Old Bay than breakfast — not quite what I was going for. My wife had the fish sandwich with tater tots. She said the flavor was solid, but it was hard to enjoy with so much grease dripping from the sandwich. It seemed like it had just come out of the fryer without being drained properly. We also shared the biscuits as an appetizer, which were quite good and a nice start to the meal. Despite a few missteps with our dish choices, I’d definitely consider coming back. The ambiance, cleanliness, and food quality show real promise — I’d just go for a different entrée next time.

Had to post about the fantastic lunch we just had! Chef Anna and her team really went above and beyond, and the food was perfectly seasoned, classic and approachable with a southern flare. Can't wait to be back again!

Second time coming here and we ordered the Chicken n Biscoff waffles, the gumbo, the blackened chicken Cajun pasta and the Salmon BLT. The pasta tasted good but I wasn't a fan of the chicken that was in it. However the Chicken n waffles is the best Chicken n waffles I've ever tasted! The flavor of the gumbo was delicious! And the Salmon BLT tasted pretty good! We highly recommend coming here!

This is a nice restaurant at the Barracks shopping centre. I came at 10:30 and it was nice and quiet. My sandwich came quickly. It wasn’t the best salmon sandwich I’ve had; it could’ve done with more spice and salt.

I go here almost three times a week for champmile tea and honey. Im in an acapella group, and for reason ive felt sick my entire time here at uva. This tea has really helped my throat, id recommend anything from here!

My already absurd $7 coffee became a NINE DOLLAR ($9) MEDIUM LATTE. Because I asked for honey, something that should already be out on the bar, and something that they never charge extra for on Grubhub. Come on now.

Visiting the UVA campus and wanted something close to specialty coffee. This location offers limited seating but a great variety of espresso and non-espresso based drinks made with a decent blend of beans. Worth a visit!

Coffee was amazing (5 stars), Food was sub-par (2 stars), so overall the place isn't the best nor the worst. If you go here, get drinks only. I've had both their brownie and their Breakfast sandwich before. Both are mediocre at best. I've also had their Mocha, and those are extremely well made.

One of my favorite places to go between classes! Amazing coffee and food and great vibes!!

Best place to get coffee on Grounds! Delicious food and drinks, wonderful service, and the vibes are great. They also have seasonal menu items that are just so delicious. I love getting coffee here to study, or even to meet up with friends.

Amazing campus spot that is a great center for studying, getting coffee, or just doing the crossword.

Great location and great vibes. I love the seating right by the window where you can see out. The coffee was great and they had plenty of options to choose from. I had the lavender lemonade cold brew which was the perfect coffee/lemonade balance. Delicious and refreshing on a hot day. I would definitely stop in again if I am in the area.

I went to this location and ordered a simple drip coffee and it tasted like hot water. I tried all the drip coffees that was made and it all tasted the same. The person that helped me tasted the coffee too and she knew that coffee wasn’t good. I was offered an Americano but I’ve never had anyone at any coffee shop make that well so I declined. I should have just gotten my money back. I had to wait a long time to get waited on and there were only 3 people inside the store. There was a lot of personal chitchat going on with the customer and employee that kept me waiting. I definitely would not go back to this location anyway.

I cannot speak for the food, but the coffee is some of the best I’ve had in America. My husband ordered a macchiato and I grabbed a vanilla iced coffee - two things that can be easily messed up. The iced coffee was perfection. The vanilla tasted real, was not overly sweet, and complemented the coffee perfectly. The coffee wasn’t overly acidic and had been brewed well - it wasn’t burnt tasting like many local roasters. The vibes were chill, there’s a ton of space to hang around, and the staff were delightful!

Best coffee in town! Cute spot with amazing indoor and outdoor seating. 11 out of 10

Dropped in opening day...and then three times the same week! Great coffee with a succinct menu and fun seasonal drinks. The baristas Natalie & Mary were super hospitable. Love the comfy corduroy chairs!

I tried the Pumpkin Pie Latte, and it was absolutely incredible! I closed my eyes as I was enjoying half of it and imagined I was eating pumpkin pie because it truly tastes spot on!

First time ordering an iced mocha at grit, but the one tasted weird , good price though!!

The food was decent, but the service was really lacking. We waited over 30 minutes to be seated, and there was no one at the front to help or update people waiting. It took a long time for the food to come out, too. BIG lack of management.

How today went. Stop in for late lunch. Hostess was nice. Walked to our table. Covered in butter. About 8 tables in the section haven’t been bussed. I get seated in another section. Server comes over after 5 minutes (I’m the only table). “You ready to order?” No hello, no hi my name is etc…. I order. “Yeah can I get the so and so” uh huh….uh huh…uh huh. That was the servers reply. Then just walks off. 8 minutes go by still no drink. Server just hanging out talking while look dead at me. No drinks on table. Finally just left. Restaurant was filthy, server was just I don’t even know. Worst ihop experience of my life.

There was a hair in the food and our eggs were cooked wrong, we requested replacement eggs and we were given hard eggs again. We requested the manager to come and speak with us and was told the manager was cooking and to busy to come speak with us.

If you expect your mobile order to be on time, just don't. It will not be on time. They probably will not start the order until you get there when the food is supposed to be ready. If they were packed busy I would be more understanding, but there were at most 10 people in the dining room. I stood at the counter for over 10 minutes before anyone offered to assist me. Then I had to wait an additional 10 minutes just for them to tell me that my order is JUST NOW starting. This is 15 minutes after the online order should have been done. I get that it's just IHOP, but timeliness is something that should be expected no matter where you go.

There were 3 of us and 2 people got their meals. I had to wait 15 minutes to get my food. It looked like the cook just threw the crepes on the plate. I will not go back again. The waitress was pleasant.

They were not very busy but it still took along time to get our food. We order gravy and biscuits. The biscuits looked like they were saturated in butter and the gravy came in a container that ketchup should come in and it was cold as ice. Could not eat it. We asked for our ticket and left without eating anything. The manager took $2.00 off our ticket. I feel like the only thing we should have paid for was our coffee . We will not be back and hope no one else wastes there time and money.

I visited Panera Bread yesterday and had a wonderful experience. I ordered one hot and one cold sandwich, and both were tasty and freshly made. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that I had everything I needed. The cafe was bustling with people, but the atmosphere was lively and welcoming.☺️

The manager here took her time while I was in the drive-thru, (there was no one behind me), to go get a nutrition notebook and look for things I could eat! Things that would be gluten free egg free lactose free I believe there was a salad on there I got that was pretty good. I really appreciate her patience.

This is an excellent Panera here in Cville! I used to love the one in Reston Town Center that was with The Hyatt. But then they took it away. So when I moved to Cville I was psyched to get Panera Bread back 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 I had the new Baguette Swch with Pepperoni and Mozzarella and it was on point 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Big sandwich too. Great value! I wanna try the Buffalo Chicken one next time. I had the Hazelnut coffee which is my #1 coffee seed at Panera ☕☕☕☕☕☕☕ Always yummy here! Great service too and plenty of places to sit and enjoy your meal. Always clean and pleasant atmosphere too.

Tried the new ciabatta cheesesteak. The sandwich was alright and really small for almost 13 dollars. The taste was not bad though, but would not get this sandwich again.

Had a hiccup with DoorDash but the manager, Rachel and Chris remade my food fresh for me. So appreciated!

Our preferred stop for breakfast. The asagio bagel sandwich is plenty to eat and the bear claws good for a snack. The coffee doesn't impress me. Service can vary.

We have been to this Panera Bread several times and others many times. Usually a totally satisfactory meal and experience. Not tonight. The pickle and the apple which came with the meal looked like they had been pulled out of the trash. The paper towel dispenser in the men's room had no paper towels. The response from the manager when brought to his attention, while not rude, was almost indifferent. Like he just didn't get it, although he did hand me another apple on the way out the door.

Stopped by for thwcuban today. It was ok,not great. The pulled pork was a bit dry and lacked seasoning. Overall it was a bit greecy. Will try something else next time. We need a good Italian deli in C'ville.

Great restaurant for sandwiches or salads. Definitely hits the local vibe. Seating is very limited and outdoor only.

Cute, fun sandwich shop. Delicious food with great ingredients and portions. Caters to pick up service, but it has a small outdoor eating area for small parties 2-3, maybe 4. Parking lot is very busy due to pick up of online orders. Highly recommended and will repeat next time in town to at least grab and go.

Saw what y’all did for the UVA hospital NICU! That is such an amazing gesture of showing support for community. Those babies and families will have a keepsake forever. Just wanted to shout y’all out.

This is one of my favorite places to eat - I’m moving and this is the place that I’m going to miss the most. So many options and they are ALL so good. Super fast and great service. Lots of gluten free options (and a gf bun!) I only wish that it was open for dinner!! 10/10 restaurant

I love this place. Service is good. Sandwiches are top notch. However my husband ordered a cold brew from here and it legitimately tasted like it was brewed with sink water. yikes

Great way to start my Sunday. Said it would take 15 minutes for our food. Waited for 47 minutes and missed my daughters graduation. Faulty establishment. Thanks Ivy P

I should preface this by saying I’ve gotten gyros here before and they were delicious, but my lunch today was pretty awful. I got the Greek salad - the dressing was pretty sparse and tasted like nothing at all. This was my main work lunch and I had to pass on it until I can buy some dressing. The olives also weren’t pitted which was kind of annoying. I also got mozzarella sticks and the breading was still pretty raw on the inside and tasted like raw flour. They were not edible.

It was only just ok. The omelet seemed to have been cooked a lil too long. The home fries, not quite long enough. And the sausage gravy just wasn't it for me. Was it just add a little water and stir? Why so thick? I would come back and try other items for lunch but breakfast today was not it...

We got suasage egg &cheese, french toast and veg omlette. The sausage was dry and a little sad. French toast were pretty good and omlette was good too. The coffee tasted a little burnt but the hot chocolate was nice. The staff is reallys sweet.

First time eating here was today. We placed our order and in less than 6 minutes it was in front of us and I ordered a custom omelet. Very fast service. The food was hot and it was good, nothing blew me away being excellent but good. The waitress we had was excellent she was on top of her game not like another one that stood and talked to the guest at the table beside us for our entire breakfast. Hope they aren't forced to share tips!!

Super super friendly staff. The service was quick and the waiter was even kind enough to let me sample their grits. The food is fantastic, the portion size is great and the quality is fantastic. Pricing is fair. I would highly recommend eating here!!! It's even near the airport.

Tony’s is a wonderful place for breakfast & lunch! Family run, family friendly. Good food, reasonable prices, convenient location, plenty of parking. Fast service, comfortable & clean environment. I’m picky about Eggs Benedict & home fries as well as a Reuben & French fries & both are best in town. My husband & I always look forward to our next meal at Tony’s! 🥰

I had the best falafel sandwich I have ever had here. Everything tasted super fresh and homemade (not sure if it actually was). Will absolutely eat here again when I am in town!

Its a lovely place and the staff are wonderful but I didn’t prefer the decaf latte

Great coffee for a good price, lots of room and not too busy. They have spots for big groups or small groups. Plenty of outlets available around.

This whole place is a vibe. Was super cool to walk in and see the whole roasting setup right there in front of my eyes. Sooo many coffees to choose from. It was my first time in, was getting a surprise for my coworker. I made a strange request at the counter. The barista agreed to it and was super sweet and even personally brought me out a little compostable tray to help me carry my drinks out. I Was super appreciative ❤️it’s the little things. Plus the espresso was delicious and just the thing I didn’t know I needed! If you like to drink real, good, properly made coffee…this is the spot

Awesome ambiance, fantastic coffee, plenty of seating available. It’s amazing how many places can screw up an iced oat milk latte, but theirs was perfect 👌🏼

The coffee was decent. I liked my cappuccino but didn’t love the cold brew. Regardless, the best part of this place is the ambiance and the seating options. It’s one of the only places in town with enough space for a large group or to get a little spot for yourself. A great place to post up for an hour or two. I also love how they give you real glassware if you’re staying in.

The family and I enjoyed are coffee, chai, and cookies at this coffee shop. We also enjoyed the ambience, the friendly staff, efficient service, easy parking, and the safe spacing of the chairs and seating. We appreciate the wide assortment of coffee choices, and I highly recommend this establishment to visitors of Charlottesville or the University of Virginia. We will definitely be visiting this establishment again.

Very cute coffee shop with plenty of seating. It was definitely a busy Sunday morning when we went but it was worth the wait. I had an iced americano and it definitely was very bold! Everyone else had lattes and they all enjoyed them!

Absolutely phenomenal experience at the Waffle House on Premier Circle in Charlottesville, VA! We came in right after a nearby festival ended, so the restaurant was packed — but the team handled the rush like total professionals. Despite the high volume, our food came out shockingly fast, hot, and cooked perfectly. The kitchen staff and line cooks worked like a well-oiled machine, staying calm under pressure and making sure every plate looked great and tasted even better. What truly made this visit exceptional was the amazing customer service. Every staff member went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Special shoutouts to: Mariah – Incredibly personable and fun, kept the mood upbeat and friendly no matter how busy it got. Jessica – Her attention to detail was outstanding — from perfectly timed coffee refills to checking on every little thing we might need. Diane – No-nonsense, fast, and kind — a true pro who stayed completely on top of everything during the rush. Kristen – Quick-witted, always smiling, and gave us fantastic customer service. She even took the time to help us find something specific when we asked. The entire team deserves major recognition for their professionalism, teamwork, and kindness under pressure. This was easily one of the best Waffle House experiences we’ve ever had. Huge thanks to Mariah, Jessica, Diane, Khirsten, and the line cooks for being absolute rockstars. Management should be proud — this crew represents Waffle House at its very best! We’ll absolutely be back the next time we’re in Charlottesville. And give all of them raises for the amazing work!

This has been my local waffle house for 3 years now and I almost always have a excellent experience any time of day. The food always comes out correct and taste great.

Had a fantastic omelet and dining experience here at the Waffle House, the staff was great, attentive, service was quick and food was great. Highly recommend this location for a great breakfast.

Our first time there. We went there late at night. Very quiet atmosphere and liked the food too.

Great food and service. Special thank you to Hope for making our visit special with her hospitality.

I want to give a special shout out to MARIAH! girl you're doing the thing and I applaud you! Give this woman a raise! She's got such a bright personality, she is customer oriented, and goes the extra mile for her customers and employees. Keep up the great work Mariah! Look forward to seeing you at my next visit!

Mariah has a nasty attitude and will purposely skip your order on the line. I waited 7 mins after receiving my has browns for her to bring my side of gravy. Then she gave us half our food, we mentioned that the bacon was missing. She grabbed another plate of bacon and walked to another table with it (who ordered after us). Then proceeded to "calculate" the total of the tabs which was her flipping back and forth through them for nearly 10 mins.

Visited Greenberry Coffee Co. a few days ago and tried their chai latte. Unfortunately, it was just okay - not particularly impressive, but not bad either. However, the service was top-notch! The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive.😊

It took 10 minutes to get the cold brew I ordered. The cup was 75% ice 25% coffee. Menu price listed on board did not match what I was charged for ($5.30~ on board and $5.90 at register.)

Love this place, its my go to to get work done. I also love that they have smoothies and gf bread! All very tasty.

Great place for coffee, top 5 in C’ville I’d say. I’ve only been to the location in Barracks, so I can’t speak for all Greenberry’s, but their coffee is consistently smooth, flavorful, and bold. Their nitro coffee comes in delicious flavors like toffee, vanilla, caramel, etc., and their flavored lattes are not too overbearing with the syrup - the espresso always comes through, especially in their hot lattes. Definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. Expect to pay ~$4-5 for a latte, and ~$3 for a coffee.

Not a great experience at this Greenberry’s unfortunately. Staff seemed annoyed and unfriendly. Iced coffee came out as a cup of watered down milk. Sandwich was okay but I’ve had better from other greenberry locations. Not stocked up on napkins or anything either.

Great selection of coffee drinks, fresh pastries, and breakfast sandwiches and burritos. The service was quick and friendly.

My husband and I throughly enjoyed our experience here. Busy place with lots of locals (always a good sign), and friendly, helpful staff. The Nitro Cold Brew coffee was very good and it was nice to try something new.

Visited Sam's Kitchen for the first time, and it definitely has that old-school diner vibe I love as a New Jersey native. I tried the cheeseburger omelette, which wasn't bad but needed a good amount of salt and pepper (maybe they forgot or left it out on purpose). I also got a side of biscuits with sausage gravy. The biscuit wasn’t anything special—wish it had been flakier—but the sausage gravy was tasty and really helped bring it together. My partner ordered the breakfast sampler with eggs, bacon, pancakes, and home fries. The sausage had a nice kick to it, and the pancakes were a bit fluffy but a little hard on the outside. The real star of the plate was the home fries, which were perfectly seasoned with peppers and onions—definitely a must-order! Service was a bit slow, especially since the place wasn’t packed, but overall, it’s a decent spot for breakfast. The prices are really cheap, and it’s conveniently close to where I live, so I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

Unbelievable food. Honestly the best omelette I’ve had and the home fries were so flavorful. They had the kindest servers ever and the diners were also so friendly. Had multiple friendly conversations with other diners on the restaurant. Would definitely come back!

Visited this spot for breakfast, I wouldn’t go back. While it is a family run business which shows from the “mama” being yelled out by the staff members. The food was subpar, the potatoes tasted like the oil they were cooked in. The waffle wasn’t bad, but not anything that you can’t get somewhere else. The decor and vibe reminds me of a flee market. It’s definitely a hidden hole in the wall spot that doesn’t seem to be too busy.

Tables were dirty and seemed kinda understaffed But the food made it all worth it Amazing double cheeseburger Best chillie cheese dog I’ve ever had in my life And the brownie ice cream was so good Eating the cold vanilla ice cream with the warm chocolate brownies is a very good feeling

I went with my bestie this past weekend and we had a great time. Breakfast is a favorite for us and this one is both good and won't break the bank. It's very much a casual diner but that's it's charm, personally I don't want anything pretentious. I want decent prices, good food and friendly service and that's exactly what Sam's Kitchen provides. The wait staff are so kind and friendly. They seem to actually be friends with one another too, which adds to the warm atmosphere.

Was walking around when I found this little area tucked into a corner of a small shopping center. The service was excellent, it appears to be a mom n pop type of place. The atmosphere hard to tell as I went in for breakfast, quiet place. Some artwork for sale on the walls. Few plants for decor, just an average place. The food was pretty good, reminds me of a home cooked meal. Eggs were cooked to my request perfectly, sausage and home fries were great. Coffee was good. The waitresses were well attentive, and seems to be regulars going day to day judging by the warm welcome and familar questions oh wheres so and so. The only thing I could say about the place would be a light make over on the inside, other than that it is an excellent stop for breakfast and looking forwars for lunch or dinner in the future.

Food, service and atmosphere were excellent!
