    This was $9 in a hotdog container. Took 30 minutes people getting food behind me.  Only got my food after complaining. They were rude.

    Slow, rude, poor experience. Way over priced at $9 from a hot dog container. I suggest go elsewhere

    Chicken and waffles

    I guess this is what they mean by "down home country cooking." A small little portion of Lynchburg's community market is dedicated to a woman who serves up... well... down home country food. Saturdays are usually packed and breakfast/brunch was on our minds. I ordered the Chicken and waffles with hash browns and my husband ordered 3 fried eggs, potatoes, corned beef hash and a biscuit. (All for $16). The quality of the fried chicken straight out the fryer was good. It came with3 wingettes and 3 drumsticks and 3 waffles. A very hefty portion that I couldn't finish! The waffles were ok, standard batter on a square at home waffle makers. My husband enjoyed his meal, and we left happy. Nothing fancy, and you will not leave hungry

    ... seriously...

    ... this place is an ABSOLUTE JOKE. I still can't believe they had the nerve to serve me eggo waffles and some frozen chicken wings and call this mess chicken and waffles. Run from this place or burn it down; just avoid at all cost. Country cooking by Irene is on the other side of the market and has much better food. This is a negative 1 star.

    Great choice for a quick and affordable breakfast. Can go crowded at times, as people have mentioned, but there a lot of seating out in the main market area. Food is nice, simple, and non-pretentious. Staff is friendly and quick.

    Waited 40 minutes for veggie omelet while others came in, ate and left. Omelet was too cold to even melt the cheese.

    We had the opportunity to enjoy Easter brunch here, and it delivered the kind of experience you…read morehope for on a holiday morning. The atmosphere struck the right balance. Upscale without being stiff, comfortable without losing that polished feel. I ordered the jambalaya, and it was a standout. Well layered flavor, not overly heavy, with a nice balance of spice and richness. The proteins were cooked properly and the vegetables still had structure, which matters in a dish like that. It felt intentional, not just thrown together for a brunch menu. Across the table, the Eggs Benedict was equally strong. The hollandaise was smooth and properly seasoned, not overly lemony or thick, and the eggs were cooked right where they should be. That is often where places miss, but this one didn't. Dessert was where things really elevated. The strawberry cheesecake was clean, bright, and not overly sweet, with a good texture that held together without being dense. The chocolate Rasberry glutin-free dessert torte, was rich in the right way. Deep chocolate flavor without crossing into heavy or overwhelming. Service was attentive without hovering, and timing between courses was well paced, which is not easy on a busy holiday like Easter. Overall, this is a place that clearly pays attention to execution. Not just presentation, but flavor, balance, and consistency. That is what separates a good brunch from one you remember. We will be back.

    Went for a dinner with another couple and had a reservation. Restaurant was sparsely populated…read moreand we sat for a very long time before being greeted by our server (so long that we went back and asked the hostess who our server was). Server wasn't much help and said she was new. Service was slow and embarrassingly bad. Our food was subpar and nothing to write home about (we didn't even take photos) - the best bite was the Thai Chili sauce Brussels. 3 out of 4 at our table had a that a veg side and everyone liked them! My wife had a the filet, which wasn't very tender. We came for dinner based on advertisement of a James Beard award winning chef. We've been to many restaurants (not in LYH) that have a James Beard award winning chef- don't be fooled this one wasn't!!!

    Great setting with a variety of seating (high tops, low tops & picnic tables) outside. Dogs are…read moreclearly welcome. And ours appreciated the pets from our server. It's next to a small playground and new amphitheater, so I'm sure this place gets quite busy on weekends. We all enjoyed our lunches; just unfortunate that it took well over a half hour to receive them. Since we were traveling home to OH, we weren't too keen for a laid back lunch.

    So there were a few good things and a few things that to be improved…read more Pros - It's in a great location. Terrific ambiance. We got seated much more quickly than we thought. One person in our party said her salad had the best dressing she's ever had. The fried pickles were good. The shrimp was good. One bartender was good. Cons - We walked in and basically weren't sure what to do. There was a woman at we thought was a hostess stand, but she never said anything to us. We finally asked if we needed to check in with her to get seated. We did. But it was kind of weird. One bartender was awful. Never made eye contact. Wouldn't take any orders. Acted like she wanted to be anywhere else. I thought the Caesar salad was ok. It came with lacquered salmon. I would have loved the salmon, but not lacquered. It couldn't be made to order. Ok fine. I ordered it the way it was described. There was nothing lacquered about that salmon. It also was shredded on top of the salad and was maybe two ounces. That's ridiculous. Our server wasn't very helpful and not very attentive. I'm sure many people have had great experiences there, but I'm not sure I would take the time to go back.

All the toppings went great together and meat was cooked well (only wish it had been more smashed, was a little thick). Seriously one of the best burgers I've had in a while. - Smashburger (4.5/5) just wished the patty was more smashed. But still good. - Build your own (4.5/5) just wished the patty was more smashed. But still good. - fries and onion rings (4.5/5) these were both very good. - kids grilled cheese (our only complaint was that they didn't have a fruit bowl option) - Downeast cider (5/5) Service was great. Just took a little longer for our food to come out than anticipated (especially with a 19 month old also at the table). But waitress and manager were great and came over to check on us often due to the wait.

    I really like this place. I was thinking it was going to be just another pub and bar with OK bar…read morefood, but the food was pretty good. There was a lot of flavor. There was to fit your needs rather you want something quick or heavy. They had a large beer selection along with good whiskey. I was able to stay on my health kick and have my burger as a salad and hot honey, cauliflower bites were really, really good. The bartenders were amazing and the views of the river was top-notch.
