Fellow employee liked it here at Eggheads..so I tried it. Basic cheeseburger n fries with a coke. Service was average and the food was good. It seemed to take a bit long to get our food..which is fine. I'd rather have the food done right vs not cooked right. As long as the food is cooked right, not cold and tastes good. Thank you to the chef and the server. read more

We have delicious breakfast at Egghead's diner. I love the pumpernickel marbled toast. I got the classic amaerica and Cole for the sweet and meat. Mine was the tradition 2 egg, 2 sausage patties, home fries and toast. Comes had 2 pancakes, 2 eggs, sausage patties and home fries. Both dishes were excellent. Service was also great. We will be back next time we are on Hayes, VA. read more

I ordered the biscuit and gravy, scrambled eggs, grits, and a piece of scrapple. The gravy was too thick, and I didn't really enjoy it. The scrambled eggs were okay, and the piece of scrapple was too large--maybe they should use a smaller loaf. Also, I tried their waffle, which was difficult to cut into and chewy, similar to mochi. Overall, the food is average. The ambiance was busy, and the place feels a bit outdated. The service, however, was excellent--very attentive and friendly. read more

I am always looking for great breakfast spots! This was such a good find. My spouse and I decided to go catch the sunrise and go for a nice walk in Yorktown, after which we decided to look for nearby places to go have breakfast. Jackpot! we loved this place. Great customer service, very nice people, and the food was awesome.. they were very attentive and the coffee nor the water ever ran out. They were on it. We can't wait to come back! read more

Eggheads has fantastic service - the staff is always friendly and seems truly delighted to help. They have a dedicated following and the food isn't bad at all. The biggest problem with this restaurant is the physical condition of the building. The dining room is dark and God only knows how old the carpet is, or when the last time it was shampooed. Honestly, it's just a little bit gross in there, which seriously diminishes the dining experience. There's an old painted plywood structure separating the checkout area from the dining room which gives the general impression of dirtiness. This is a local business that I'd love to see do well. The place is almost always busy, so clearly, the dirt isn't a problem for lots of people. A little bit of effort could make this place amazing. read more

Eggheads is a staple local breakfast diner. The service is always top notch, they are very attentive, and flexible to large parties, and bring food out fast even when it is busy! They always take good care of us here. The ambiance is low key country diner and a strong local crowd. The food is always delicious and the prices are reasonable.

Eggheads was a nice surprise. We wound up in the unfamiliar (to us) area at lunch time on a weekday with no idea where to go, and found this place. Food was great (we all got breakfast food), and service was very friendly and efficient. The only knock I can give the place is that the interior really leaves something to be desired. It's like they took over an old department store and put tables in without doing any sort of renovation. It's clean...it just looks very temporary. So, don't be scared off by the interior when you go in. It's a nice place. read more

I decided to update my review because I've come back several times since being less than satisfied with my breakfast(western omelet in the first photo that had hardly anything in it). Today I tried the western omelet again and it was so much better! I usually get home fries with my breakfast, but we are trying to eat less carbs...so definitely recommend the home fries if you come for breakfast! We love coming here because the service is great and so are the prices. Janet was our waitress today and she's such a delight! read more

Interior is nothing out of the ordinary, but clean. Staff was excellent at service. We arrived at 1:45 and they close at 2:00. They were more than pleasant and wanted us to stay. We weren't rushed out either. We ordered the Kitchen Sink omelette and the Shrimp and Grits. Both were very good and portions were adequate. If there was a downside, it was their biscuits. They weren't bad, just not as good as the rest of the food. Prices are reasonable as well. We will return and we will recommend to our friends. read more

Went there for a late breakfast. It was busy, we stood for 10 minutes waiting to be seated. The hostess was rude and did not even look at us. It took forever to get anyone to take a drink order. This business is a victim of its own success. As a local favorite, people are accepting of an over busy, long wait, and short tempered staff. Our waitress was nice when she did come over, took our order, omelets, and toast, with homefries. She kept the drinks full, food, well It took a little bit. Time to get food from sit down to eating was 45 minutes. The food was tasty and hot. The seating was old, and springs in the chair were broken and sunk in. But it had a good local country feel. I really think I wouldn't go during an absolute rush. You can't go if you are in a hurry. The sheer volume of people trying to go is crazy. Good Sunday breakfast joint for the church crowd. I would avoid on weekends. We went on a Friday morning still busy-ish. 3 out of 5 due to the total visit for breakfast, taking 1 hour and 45 minutes. read more

Food was good and sizes pretty large. Got sausage gravy & biscuits combo. The sausage gravy was pretty good and biscuits (I asked to have them grilled per the waitresses suggestion - good idea) were soft and fluffy. The scrambled eggs as a large portion. And even though they use pre-cut hashbrowns that are cubed they still fry them and they have a really good taste of them. Pancakes are about the normal size, but fluffy. Mac & cheese side is good. The only downside is the menu can be hard to read. Will go there again read more

Oh my gosh - WHAT A FIND! This place has both wonderful, hearty food and a sweet, small-town diner atmosphere with friendly staff and a nostalgic rural ambiance. Janet, our lovely waitress, was attentive and so warm; it honestly reminded me of eating in my Aunt's kitchen as a child, when you knew you were getting a serving of kindness right alongside your eggs. The Cowboy Omelet Bowl was fantastic! The steak was cooked so it was still juicy, not chewy. The cheese was melted in layers between the requested "extra crispy" potatoes and perfectly blackened peppers with extra sprinkled on top of the super yummy breakfast gravy My fiancé had the Reuben and wasn't as impressed, but was more than happy to have the other half of my breakfast. Thank you Eggheads! read more

The hostess was friendly and seated us by a window with a great view. Our server, Jessica S., was fantastic--friendly, upbeat, attentive, and genuinely made our visit enjoyable.

Situated right under the York River bridge, not far from the Yorktown museum, is the cutest village. I'm sorry, they can't claim it as part of the original Yorktown but it is cute. There is a lovely river walk...hence the name of the restaurant. They have some of the BEST views in the area being right there. We had reservations however it being the busiest day for restaurants, we had to chill our heels for a few moments before being taken back. I was more than ok with this as we ended up getting a window seat (see above for reference). Thank heavens they put the name of the server in the receipt cuz y'all know my Swiss cheese brain. Cara was the wonderful server who took care of us. She was always there ready for me to get my mum good & spoiled. Super friendly and very helpful. The buffet, it was impressive for a buffet and while not a big buffet, it was specialized. First up were 3 different kinds of salads, then a fruit platter, and bagels & cream cheese. They had a raw bar with shrimp & oysters next, then breakfast stuff (eggs, potatoes bacon etc) mac & cheese, garlic mashed taters & then a carving station with turkey, ham & lamb. Finally a small but respectful dessert table. If you couldn't find something to fill you, you weren't looking. The single sour note of the buffet was the salmon and Mac & cheese. I'll know better next time. Overall the River Walk has come back with perfect timing and style. I highly recommend a visit. Parking is a pain but patience will help

We only ordered a cup and not a bowl because we were unsure of how it tasted. The Caesar salad had no anchovie flavor like we are use to and was just medicore. We ordered the meatballs which had lamb and pork in it. They were juicy, tender and just needed a little more seasoning. The Calamari was fried to perfection for me and could've used a pinch of salt. The sweet tea was everything and I would recommend it. For the main entrees, we chose the shrimp and scallop risotto and the beef braised Ragau. There were two scallops and four grilled shrimp and few asparagus with some chopped up bacon. This dish I highly recommend as well. The beef was tender, seasoned and pasta was cooked perfect. Overall, this is a nice and quiet place to dine at anytime. I would recommend and will definitely return again. Jason was on point with his promptness.

As a philly cheese steak enthusiast, I have to say this one was amazingly good! Very accomodating…read moreto my mom and me, and our allergies were specifically taken note of Service was amazing, and our servers and seater was extremely polite and made sure everything was safe The whole place had a homey, beachy feel that I love very much Would come again

Water Street Grille was a pretty disappointing experience in all aspects…read more 1. Our server did not know the type of oysters they were serving. For a seafood item that supposedly sold fresh, I would expect at least a little bit of knowledge... like if the oysters are local, when they were harvested, etc. I also thought the oysters were extremely small. 2. The short rib linguini was flavorless. The short rib was overcooked and it was basically served on top of the linguini. It didn't feel like the linguini was cooked with the sauce. I was not a fan. The only pro about this place is the waterfront view. I would not recommend it for its food at all.

If all of the Mobjack reviews haven't convinced you to experience this unique cafe setting yet,…read moreI've dropped some pics and vids to get you there! Do something kind for yourself today. Step back in time with some coffee, tea, or grub at Mobjack. Don't even tell anyone you're headed there (you can post after)! The secrecy will make YOUR experience that much better! A fulfilling and romantic-minded life is what you make it! Or, if you're not up to a solo stop, maybe combine coffee with friends and a walk and talk around the serene surrounding grounds? This is also a perfect remote work location if they're not busy. Regardless, the Mobjack staff is always so friendly! It was a quiet hour during my last visit (when I shot the attached pics and vid). The staff at the counter is always so patient with all of my food inquiries and coffee requests... even when they're busy! Last visit, I had the Mobjack Reuben Panini... I wasn't expecting such food quality for a coffee spot! Also, one of the kitchen staff stopped by my table to answer questions I'd asked him about the building and Mobjack. We had a nice chat, which I appreciated since he was headed out after his shift. Beautiful spot. Mobjack also provides their employees with a generous and quality portion of the cafe/house quartered off just for their use. That is nice to see.

Such a neat house! Great iced vanilla latte!!…read moreLoved the bakery selections. Can sit inside or out.
