The brisket was smoked nicely I'd prefer it to been a little more seasoned but it was made up with the bbq sauce. Staff and service were really good and the interior had a nice vibe to it. I was happy with my experience here, especially it being in a small area! Food(50%): 7.8 Staff/service(25%): 8.5 Value(25%): 7.0 Overall: 7.8/10

We stopped here after visiting the Civil War hospital museum nearby. The food itself was ok--my…read morebrisket sandwich was fine and my son enjoyed his BLT with nicely crispy bacon. My southern roots have to say no to the collards. Sorry! It's nice that they have 2 slaws and a variety of pickles to choose from and the hush puppies were perfect. They offer a variety of sauces and I preferred the Carolina sauce with a bit of Virginia sweet. That said, the overall experience didn't quite match the price point. At around $90 for three people, it felt expensive for a very casual, counter-service setting. They have a quick order cafeteria style service with most sides and meats right there to serve from the ordering counter. They offer a variety of pre-portioned desserts, cold alcoholic beverages, and meats and sides in larger portions to go We chose to sit outside, but the noise level was a major drawback--constant truck traffic and a very loud motorcycle shop next door made it hard to relax or enjoy the meal. These are things that the exchange cannot control, so if noise is an issue for you, sit inside and you will have a different experience. Overall, decent food, but between the cost and the noise, it wasn't the experience we were hoping for.

Did someone say Kettle cooked potato chips, where you can sample before buying? Saw the brochure…read more for Route 11 chips in Mt Jackson@ Cooters Place in Luray. How often, even though it's a small building, can you try sample of chips for free, if in production watch or see how it's seasoned the chips upstairs. This was a must in Mt Jackson.

The staff were very friendly and I was impressed with how they handled the amount of people ordering from this little building. The outdoor seating was nice and there were quite a few tables. Overall this is an easy 5/5 stars!

Strasburg, VA. Shell/New Star Market. Dec, 2025. We were traveling between Warrenton, VA and…read moreThomas, WV, having just exited I-81 near Strasburg. We wanted to fill up on gas before "going over the mountain". GPS led us to the New Star Market/Shell Gas Station, which was only about a mile off I-81 and directly on our route. The self-service gas area was a bit congested, but we squeezed behind a parked pickup to get to a pump. Gas prices were excellent at $2,75/gallon. I went to check out the small convenience store. They seemed to have pretty much everything that a traveler might want or need, including snacks, a deli, and more. Many other reviewers have mentioned BBQ, and an outdoor sign, advertised this as well. Somehow, my husband and I both missed this -- probably because it wasn't lunch time for us yet! We'll have to check it out again upon our return. The cashier was friendly and polite. Restrooms were outside and clean. .

It's a cool place for a pit stop!…read more Their fried oysters hit the spot but I'd skip the brisket next time. I saw someone chowing down on some ribs & fried chicken and I got jealous. Surprisingly, their habanero hot sauce was fantastic! I didn't see if they sell that stuff by the bottle but I'm sure they would hook you up with some. I got the impression that not many people show interest in it sooo, get on it! Their Cookies & Cream pie is meh but their blueberry pie, warmed up with a little whip cream hits the spot.
