    A great little privately owned local place to eat in Poquoson. Cute local decoration theme. Friendly helpful staff staff and a locally flavored menu. We found the place based on highly rated Yelp reviews and ended up visiting twice. Once during the week by ourselves and then with a large family group for Sunday Brunch. Even though a smaller place, our larger group was handled with aplomb. Shrimps and Grits are excellent. The 185 Plate is a tasty breakfast dish. Try the beignets. Check out the Secret Menu. Stop by, you won't be disappointed.

    What a excellent find!!! A truly hidden gem! The service was absolutely phenomenal, Zoe went above and beyond to explain everything and make us feel at home. The food was really good and the coffee top tier piping hot. Piping hot. The ambiance was so inviting with a warm welcoming feel. We had a small wait but they allowed us to take a couple of coffees out front and bask in a great country feel setting. Thank you again Zoe for the excellent 1st time experience. Eat Local!!!

    The 185 plate with French toast was definitely the best thing we ordered. We also loved the sweet potato fries and the blackberry chipotle sauce. The smoked brisket burrito, on the other hand, was too heavy and pretty average in flavor -- not something we'd order again. Portions were good, and everything came out well presented too. 185 has a cute, cozy vibe, but it does get busy, so be prepared for a wait. Monthly specials are available.

    My very good friend recommended this place for brunch and I'm so happy we did. We got in around noon which was perfect because it wasn't too busy. We were seated right away and our waitress Jess came over to take our drink order. There was another waitress came over and asked if we wanted to buy a cookie she had made. It was chocolate chip coconut and smelled amazing. My friend bought one and was pleased that it was still warm from the oven. Then Jess came back to take our orders. I ordered the blackened shrimp salad, my friend had a breakfast bowl and my godkids split another breakfast meal. The chef was so amazing, they even put the kids' breakfast on 2 separate plates and it was alot of food! The place is cozy and small however they do have big tables to accommodate about 8 and they even have a patio. I'll definitely be back to try more menu items

    We seen the reviews on Yelp and was on our way to Suffolk from Williamsburg. The small size surprised me, the mismatched tables and chairs had a vibe of its own and made it a kind of homey invite. Only 1 table was empty and we were seated quickly. It was clearly a local favourite and there was quickly a lineup with people willing and expecting to wait. The service was quick and friendly. The food was good home cooked meals and came out quickly. I had brisket scramble and it was delicious. It needed the sweet compote to balance the richness. My wife had the biscuits with gravy and eggs were good. There was lots of sausage in the country gravy. The cheese grits were tasty. Overall the food was very good and a solid experience. Since I live with a chef who cooks this quality of food often, I probably wouldn't drive here, however if we were in the area I'd definitely stop here and try other items as well.

    My boyfriend and I went together on a Saturday morning. They were super busy so we sat at the community table so a table of 6 could sit timely. I got the honey chicken biscuit again and added an over easy egg. Again it was cooked perfectly and delicious. My boyfriend got shrimp and grits and loved the dish! It's got good flavor and the shrimp were cooked perfectly!

    I had been wanting to try this restaurant for a while ever since it came on the Yelp top 100 restaurants list. I even drove 3 hours to get here and try the food. It's a cute little diner style restaurant retrofitted from an old tiny house (as evidenced further by the fact that it's practically on a residential street). The decor also makes it feel like you're still just eating dinner at someone's home which is interesting. We were seated promptly and were greeted by the kindest server, who let us take our time looking over the menu and always made sure we had everything we needed. Now onto the food. My husband ordered the chicken Parmesan sandwich with extra pesto. I had some of it and Let me tell you it tastes just as phenomenal as my photo looks. The bread was fresh, the chicken perfectly crispy, juicy, and tender. The marinara sauce was delicious! It seemed homemade, with real tomatoes and was perfectly tangy. There was plenty of sauce and a perfect mozzarella cheese pull. The pesto was also fresh and had a great flavor. All in all that must be one of THE BEST Chicken Parmesan sandwiches I've ever had. Especially noting that this is a brunch spot and I wouldn't expect the lunch food to be as good, but boy did they prove me wrong. It came with decently tasting waffle fries as a side. 5/5 for sure! Next we ordered the smoked brisket burrito which had the brisket, scrambled eggs, 'smash browns', and two types of cheese. There was also a blackberry chipotle sauce on the side for dipping. I thought that the breakfast burrito was decent but the meat was most definitely not what I would call a brisket... It was very dry exactly like beef jerky, and lacked much flavor. I would say that anyone who's had decent brisket knows that it's supposed to be fall off the bone tender and be swimming in flavor. For that I was sadly disappointed as that was my main meal and I'd come all the way just for that burrito. The eggs were fresh, but there was way too much cheese, and that's coming from a cheese lover who always adds extra. The blackberry chipotle jam was delicious but putting it on the burrito couldn't save it for me and just made for a weird combination. For this I would say it's a 3/5 for me. I had their smash browns as my side and ordered sour cream to put on as I always do with potatoes, but was pleasantly surprised to say they didn't need anything extra at all. The flavor was phenomenal and the smash browns fluffy and moist. I would come back again just for them alone. 5/5 for me. Best hash browns I've ever had. We ordered one final dish just to try it and that was the French toast. The bread was cooked well and had an ok taste. There was a scoop of real butter mixed with cinnamon placed on top. They seemed ok, but something about the flavor was off and we figured out it had too much salt. So much so there was no helping it by putting on the maple syrup. Someone just added too much salt to the French toast when cooking it and it ruined the whole thing. Would have been great especially with the cinnamon butter if it weren't for that extra salt. The food was pretty good and I would definitely still make the drive for the smash browns and the chicken Parmesan sandwich, however I would want to try some more items on the menu to make up for this time. For this reason I still recommend it, though I would stay away from the burrito and French toast. TLDR: Great service, mostly great dishes including the mouth watering chicken Parmesan sandwich and smash browns, but avoid the French toast and brisket burrito. I still recommend it, and will try again.

    Local breakfast spot that also serves burgers and sandwiches. Although the service and food are a little slow, the home style food is pretty good.

    185 in Poquoson is the Real Deal -- Don't Sleep on This Place! It is always unplanned trips that allow me to explore a bit and glad I did. I was sitting in the parking lot of a large chain breakfast pulled up Yelp to see what I might be missing. Glad wasn't lazy...15 mins later I was in the parking lot for 185! If you haven't been to 185 on Little Florida Road in Poquoson, you are seriously missing out. This charming, family-owned neighborhood gem is everything a great local restaurant should be and then some. The moment I walked through the door, I felt it. You're not just a customer here; you're a guest. The welcome was immediate and genuine and set the tone for the whole experience before I even sat down. I ordered the brisket sandwich with sweet potato fries, and wow, it delivered. I was surprised the blackberry chipotle sauce worked BERY WELL! The brisket was tender, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Paired with perfectly seasoned sweet potato fries, it was the kind of meal that sticks with you long after you leave. This isn't reheated, thrown-together food, you can taste the love and craft in every bite. It was like Woman Power this morning with all ladies from front to back. Their whole vibe was awesome from the front of the house to the back. I have to give a very special shoutout to my waitress, Tiffany... she was absolutely AWESOME. Attentive, personable, and full of good energy, she made the whole experience even better. The kind of server who makes you feel like you're dining with a friend. Looks like 185 was ranked #87 on Yelp's Top 100 Restaurants in 2023, and after my visit, I completely understand why. The owners obviously had a beautiful vision and it is being executed incredibly...to my benefit today! Five stars, without question. When I am back in the area....I'll be back, and I'm bringing my wife will tell everyone I know.

    Quaint restaurant with creative menu. Our waitress, I believe named Tiffany was very kind, and super excited about the food she served. And it was GREAT food. My chicken biscuit was fresh with a soft sweet potato bun. My husbands pancakes were sweet and fluffy.

    This place is amazing! To the food, cocktails and service everything was top notch with that quaint small town feel. It definitely helps that the locals are the most sweet and friendly people around!! I highly recommend the breakfast items & their brisket is to die for!! I'll be back!!

    Not the best photograph because from r some reason the sandwich looks small but its not.  I couldn't even finish it.

    We decided to go out for breakfast while running errands. I've been to 185 a long time ago and I won't wait so long to go back again. We were greeted and seated quickly. The decor is Beachy and elegant. The seating is somewhat awkward but that's because it is a small place. A few tables for two would make it more intimate. The bathroom was very clean and decorated with the same theme. They had a dish with feminine products if needed. That is always a nice touch. My boyfriend said the coffee was a little weak for his liking. The mimosa was good, I had the OJ. It took a little bit for us to have our order taken but was well worth it. The food was incredible and the portions are large. I had the sausage breakfast burrito. It was nice and cheesy and the tortilla was nice and crisp. The salsa ( if you request it ) tastes very fresh. My boyfriend had the 185 plate and was very happy with it. The bacon was cooked perfectly and had a very distinct and great flavor. I'm looking forward to trying more menu items. We will go back for sure.

    Super impressed with this one!…read more When you walk in, it seriously feels like you stepped into a 90s movie diner, and I'm here for it! They were voted Best Burger in Newport News, so my expectations were pretty high. They absolutely did NOT disappoint. I ordered a plain cheeseburger with grilled onions and bacon, along with the chili cheese fries. BEST MEAL I'VE HAD IN A WHILE! The burger was fresh, juicy, and exactly what I was craving. Everything came out super fast and tasted fresh. You order at the counter when you walk in, and if you're dining in, they bring your food out to you. Super easy and efficient. It does get crowded though. They also had a little market where they sell ice cream, pie, jerky's, snacks. I really wanted to try their soft serve too, but by the time we finished eating, there was a HUGE line, so I'm kind of sad I didn't get to try it. Guess that just means I have to come back!

    Based on what we had and the speed of food delivery, I'd give Farmer's Table on Warwick 4/5 stars…read more We had four burgers, a chili dog, and tater tots. I think the tater tots were my favorite part - they were the perfect crispness. Burgers were delicious but messy, especially when your kids don't understand how to eat a burger with the paper wrapped around it so the toppings don't drip out and fall apart. The grease didn't soak through the buns like other people talked about, but it definitely had some liquid coming off. Still, delicious! There were a lot of people in line to order when we got there, and we were worried it would take a long time, but the orders were coming out pretty rapidly and we didn't wait too long. They do have some coloring books and a puzzle to keep little kids entertained while waiting, which was much appreciated. They also have a small farm shop in the next room with various items for sale. Overall, we would come back to support the farm-to-table concept, but not necessarily because of the food.

    My first thought was "the Mediterranean version of Chipotle?"…read more I am really glad I decided to get some takeout from them because they had a 2-for-1 meal deal so I got two giant bowls (enough food for 4+ people?) and two interesting drinks for less than $21. Dining out these days often ends up being more like $20+ per person so this was a nice change. I doubt we'll get the cucumber mint drink again but I really liked the cilantro kale blueberry carrot drink. The custom bowls were great.

Instead, we were charged for a honey harissa chicken signature bowl that costed $17.91. When we first questioned the charge, the employee insisted we received honey harissa chicken. We looked at our bowl and it was clearly chicken shawarma. When we brought it up again, we were told the price difference was only $1. Another employee stepped in and claimed that build-your-own bowls don't include protein and that all protein is an extra charge. We explained that only certain protein options are upcharges (honey harissa chicken + steak and lamb) and asked her to ring the order up again to verify. After checking the register, she realized we were right and refunded the $3 difference. While we appreciate receiving the refund, it's concerning that the employees don't seem to have a basic understanding of their own menu and pricing. They both confidently gave incorrect information before taking a moment to verify the facts. Definitely check your receipts carefully to make sure you're being charged correctly. While we eventually received a refund, we had to dispute the charge multiple times before it was finally corrected. There was no apology--only arguments and repeated explanations for why the charge was supposedly correct. Hopefully management can provide additional training so employees are more familiar with the menu and pricing going forward.
