Still have two more to try out of the 4. Lots of parking also and easy to find.

Walked in and was happily greeted by Mrs. Joy herself! This establishment checks every box on my 5 star list. Husband and wife owned and operated, very friendly, clean and charming environment, and of course, delicious food. I got a square donut! It was hearty, fluffy and had plenty of glaze. As always I say please support local! Mrs. Joy's is a gem of the community and it is very clear that they know what they are doing! I would happily go back!

The Pied Piper is one of two pie food trucks at the Backyard. I would first caution you that these…read moreare not traditional pies but hand pies. I was honestly expecting something more like a traditional mini pie, but these small half-moon pies can actually be eaten without utensils! I found it to be more similar to what I would call a turnover, but I found in my research that hand pies are actually quite common and have less flaky crust. They just have more crust proportionally and have less filling, making them thin and easy to eat without the content spilling out. I absolutely loved my caramel pecan pie! I also got to try my husband's cherry pie, which I also was a fan of. Both of the pies were pleasantly not as sweet (or fake tasting) as I expected. There really is a good balance of the buttery crust with the more sugary contents inside. I'll definitely be back to try other flavors and even some of the savory options, too!

But first off there was no soap in the bathroom. This is my number one pet peeve because let's face it how are the employees washing their hands if there's no soap. Both our milkshakes while absolutely looked amazing the milkshake part fell short of my milkshake expectations. It was more like a little ice cream with lots of milk. Like I said maybe it was just an off afternoon or perhaps this is the way they are here, but for 30+ dollars I was expecting an awesome milkshake. You can see the soupy shake running over and onto the plate. Also no chocolate or peanut butter sauce all over the top of the build me up buttercup. I do love the mason jar though

Customer service: 5 stars: came in 8/13/22 a hour before close. Everyone was warm and friendly…read more Cleanliness: 4 stars: really tidy for the most part besides customers not doing a decent job cleaning up behind theirselves. Seating: 5 stars: lots of seating and seating outside. Price point: 4 stars: I think it's fair for what I ordered. The more elaborate the higher the prices get. Food/taste: 5 stars: this place is better than the shake shack in Atlanta as well as the sugar factory in Atlanta and Orlando. Overall: I would come back if I was in the area. The staff is warm and friendly, clean facility including the restrooms, and they serve great products. They do use blue bell icecream and I love blue bell. This place would be amazing for a birthday party or instead of doing cake and icecream for a party make a reservation and come here. I would!!! Our socks were knocked off. This was a great way to finish up a long day at Appomattox Court House (30-35 minutes away) Great job guys! You are amazing!

I am usually so…read moregood about taking the pre-eating pic for my review, but I sort of got...overly excited to dive in. Let me explain. We were eating dinner with the family at Mi Patron (across the parking lot) and my wife showed me a video of this Cookiewich thing at the food truck in the same parking lot. It being made, it being eaten, etc. I had to do it. I did. It was SOOOOO worth it, and was literally a Magical Ice Cream Experience. I just made up that term, but it works. I LOVED it, and almost stopped here again during my quick three-day trip to Lynchburg. I still regret NOT stopping by again, and sometimes have dreams about it while back in Colorado. But, that is neither here nor there. Anyway, you need to get yourself one of these awesomeness-in-an-ice-cream-treat things. In addition to the actual ice cream being awesome, they have the ring game (so you can entertain yourself while stuffing your face like I did), AND the value of what you pay and what you get is...sort of absurd in this day and age. It was $4.75, I believe and that is insane. Go and get it before they raise the price. I would have paid like $12 for that thing. I highly recommend making the dessert stop at this place when in the area, and see you there (no, seriously, the next time I am in Lynchburg, I am beelining it there)...
