    Had a great time and love the food and old school feel especially right next to 2 colleges so it brings the old school Rah Rah vibe with the eclectic ambiance. Had the Macado and it was awesome. Enjoy your meal upstairs and outside so you can see Lexington. Can't wait to eat here again when we visit our son at VMI. Oh and the menu is never ending.

    We loved everything about Macado's (pronounced locally as MacAdoo's), especially after our 7 hour drive from New York. Atmosphere is laid back, beers are cold, refreshing & affordable, the place itself feels homey & historical (it appears to be a large, old home with good, street-view balconies & several dining areas) & the sandwiches are absolutely huge & can be totally personalized, if you choose that option. Our server was friendly, service was unhurried, air conditioning was appreciated & it is in a good location on the main drag. We were thankful that, on a Sunday when so many restaurants & stores here close early, that Macado's was open & welcoming.

    I usually go to the Macado's in Farmville but we stopped at this location for lunch on our way back from Roanoke. Our server, Tori, was very sweet and attentive to our needs. I got the crazy Chris wrap (my usual go to). It was pretty good although I like FarmVille's version better. The Lexington location is in an old historic house which is super cool and gives a relaxed but fun atmosphere.

    If I could give more stars I would! Out of all the places we've ate at in Lexington, this was by far the best! The buns on the BLT and burger were so soft and sooo good! Fries were hot and fresh! Sangria, I wish I could make it that way! A little loud inside but it is a Bar atmosphere.. service was quick and friendly! Highly recommended!

    Half of the best Chicken cordon Blue sandwich I've ever had. Ham very tasty and chicken was fixed to perfection. Choice of roll was spot on

    First time ever in Lexington Virginia. Thought let's try Macadoos. Very glad I did. Potatoe salad was ExcellentThe chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich was spectacular. My uncle was with me not sure what sandwich you got but he told me it was possibly the best one he had ever had. If you're in the area definitely stop out

    Excellent service here. Our whole family came in for lunch right after opening. Our waitress was great and attentive the whole time. Everything we had tasted awesome. I loved Macado's in downtown Roanoke in the '80s and the food here is just as good.

    Amazing food, service, ambiance. I can't wait until we get back to Lexington Virginia

    Amazing menu of Sammie's from rye bread to bagels!! Great staff, awesome decor and cool vibes! Has a big bar as well so you can get your burger and drink fix. I love coming back here when I visit Lexington, it's a must visit!!

    Nice restaurant with a bit of a mom and pop feel. Stopped here on the way back home for dinner tonight and happy we did. The service was friendly and accommodating, seated right away,never had to wait for refills, and the food came out relatively quickly. Portions were definitely satisfactorily large and proved to be a good overall value when looking at prices. My wife got the chef's salad and had to take half of it home! If we ever came back through Lexington, we would definitely visit again.

    Finally, the added bonus is that they were dog friendly-they had three tables on their front porch-we were fortunate to get one of those tables.

I also got The Yardbird sandwich after the server recommended it. It's basically just chicken salad and lettuce between a ciabatta roll, but it was simple and great. And what the heck: I can't visit a bakery that has multiple sweets without getting one. I also listened to the advice of the server when she recommended the orange scone. She was right again! It was tender and tasted like a Froot Loop. Blue Sky is located on the corner of a busy street. There are lots of tables, but if you can, sit at the bar that looks out onto the street to see the hustling and bustling college town.

It's in Lexington, home of VMI, and the shop itself is diagonal from a post office built in 1911 with large columns lining its edifice. Sometimes, when college students leave great reviews, that means good food that isn't too expensive. True here, especially for what you get: generous servings on amazing bakery breads. I had the "Sorry Charlie" on a slice of focaccia -- topped with tomato slices and melted cheese and a satisfyingly crunchy, warm crust, with a simple but nicely refreshing black bean and corn salad. Dessert treats are also worth a splurge. The people couldn't be friendlier with customers of all ages enjoying themselves. (And they have a coffee bar. And a "speakeasy"!)

    I love this cozy bakery. I stopped here with my family for breakfast and loved the artwork posted…read moreabout. We came for a simple breakfast but found it was really really delicious. My 6yo daughter had the waffles, I got the twoseez which was basically toast, scrambled eggs and bacon (which said daughter took), pre-teen son had a bagel sandwich, and wife had an omelette. My wife's omelette was extremely flavorful. What really made it wonderful was the owner's kindness and honesty. Knowing we were tourists asked us what we planned on doing and when mentioning the near by safari park, he said "oh don't play to feed the animals" which was exactly what we needed our kids to hear because two week prior the kids had a field trip to a petting zoo and my daughters class including her all got sick and I didn't want a repeat of that on our vacation... so thank you dude. But also he gave some insider info on where else to go around and that was also appreciated.

    It's a bakery, but we stopped in for sandwiches on a cold day in December. (Note they also have…read moresoup.) Place is cute and has quite a few tables. Service was friendly and fast. Food was delicious. I had the vegetable panini, which was delicious and flavorful, and the bread was amazingly good! The other one had a gyro, which he only wished had been bigger (not that it was small.) The baked goods looked fantastic, but we didn't try any. Definitely recommend if you're looking for soup, sammies or sweets.

My daughter ordered a Caesar Salad. I ordered the kale salad and added some chicken. My husband ordered the power bowl with salmon. The Caesar salad was a classic Caesar and was good. The Kale salad was amazing. If you like kale, I definitely recommend this salad. The power bowl was excellent too. The added chicken to my salad and the salmon added to the bowl were healthy portions which added to the meal and experience. I would definitely come back.

I wanted to get the skirt steak and fries, but unfortunately that wasn't an option online. I opt'd for the burger, as did my boyfriend, both of our burgers came out with the wrong toppings. Oh well, we ate them and they were fine. Seems like a typical, frozen burger patty. The french fries were very greasy. We also sat outside here for a drink at one point. They have a very cute patio in the back of the restaurant. I got the Lex vegas, it was thick because of the puree. I didn't think about that, it wasn't as refreshing as I thought it would have been. I really didn't have too much interaction with the staff as we just ordered a drink and then online pickup but everyone seems nice and helpful.
