Stopped by for breakfast nice place but definitely out dated. Food was ok nothing to write home about. We figured while in town try a local place we could have skipped over this location. And they only take cash. read more

Great service. Review based on service. Food typical diner food, but good and generous breakfast portions. Beware, this is a cash or local check (Richmond not local) restaurant. There is an ATM at local gas station, but it does not work for non locals. read more

Couldn't complain -- the food was delicious and exactly what I wanted. I loved the mom-and-pop feel of the place, and the location couldn't have been better. The service wasn't amazing, but the staff were still friendly. read more

WOW, from the stained walls, stained coffee mugs and cracked booths to the worst food ever, cold and greasy it could only get better, right? Well it did, we were about to leave and this beautiful young lady (12 ish) came to our booth and was selling chocolate chip cookies she made by herself for 2-$1.00, my husband being the gem(and sucker for a pretty face) that is his, bought all she had, I can't remember the last time I saw a child light up as she did, you GO girl. Another example of not judging a book by it's cover, We left hungry, but happy. read more

Great pizza, great steak and cheese! Service is a bit lacking. The fact that they do not accept debit cards keeps me from coming many times.

We were out exploring and stopped in. Friendly staff, food was pretty good. Very affordable prices. Tip the waitresses well, they deserve it. read more

This is a legit dive diner, and really the only breakfast place around Lake Anna when we stayed for a weekend. It's cash only, but there is an ATM next door. We were surprisingly seated right away on a Sunday morning with a group of 9, and service was excellent! Our coffees stayed at least half full and food came out quickly. For the price, you can't beat the portions! My $10 meal came with coffee, english muffin, eggs, scrapple, and potatoes. The food is can't-mess-up basic, but still tasty! The gravy with the sausage gravy was creamy and delish! There was a small snafu when our vegetarian friend was served an italian omelette (with sausage and pepperoni inside), but she quickly caught it and a new dish was replaced right away. read more

I've been going to mineral restaurant for awhile now and have always enjoyed it. Just tried the pizza, one of the best I've had in years!

A good basic diner that serves good food. No frills here, but a lot of good folks. Breakfast is really good as is lunch, we have not had dinner. Bring cash, no cards. read more

We love this place for quality food at a reasonable price, the staff is excellent and very friendly. The breakfast is amazing and the NY style pizza is truly impressive. read more

Great little cash only friendly diner. We frequently get their pizzas & they are delicious.

Great small town diner with good food and great prices.

Interesting decor. Decent food. A little slow but they looked as short staffed as everyone else is.

Bring your cash here!! (They only accept cash) Great breakfast! Fast, hot and delicious!! If you're staying at Lake Anna. This is the breakfast spot!! read more

Classic greasy spoon, in a good way. Not too many dining options at Lake Anna, at least where I was staying a few weeks back. We encountered a rainy morning on our trip so we decided to go out for a big breakfast, it was big indeed. Huge portions of diner classics. Pretty large menu with tons of breakfast staples. The service was great. Server was attentive and friendly, pay at the counter. The venue was run down, could definitely use a refresh but maybe that's part the charm. The food was good but not amazing. Solid breakfast though, it did the trick, it just wasn't amazing but it was satisfying. I forget exactly what I got but from what I remember it was three eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuit with sausage gravy, a hash brown (McDonald's style) and toast. Like I said, a big breakfast indeed. Everyone was pleased with their food and everyone was ready for a mid morning nap afterwards. read more

Mineral Restaurant - Hungry Man with a potato patty, three eggs over medium, Sausage gravy with biscuits, sausage patty, bacon and toast came later. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mineral, Virginia

Wonderful breakfast restaurant and friendly staff. Could not be more pleased to fine this little gem! Highly recommend you stop by for an outstanding breakfast! read more

Always great food and service! Very reasonably priced. I really like the decor because it represents the town's history. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because they only take cash and sometimes that can be pretty inconvenient. read more

Cash only! Delicious food, fast service, great prices. Wait staff is friendly, fast service

I don't know what was the worse part of my first and last visit to the Mineral Restaurant ...the from frozen meat, the watery, bland instant potatoes, the unseasoned canned green beans, the fact that they were out of several items I tried to order like salad and baked potatoes, the stale, out of date lemon cake slice, or the unkept, dirty place itself. How this place is in business still or not shut down by the health department is a mystery to me. I could tell by the outside it would be a dive, but I expected some good country cooking. This place did not deliver. I would NOT recommend you try this establishment because it's disgusting in every way. I would give it zero stars if I could. read more

Mineral Restaurant at the Delaware Hotel, Leadville, CO. We had more than one local tell us they FINALLY had a great breakfast place. i see "cash only" and "Italian" in some reviews... in September 2022, credit cards were accepted, and i didn't notice anything Italian on the breakfast menu. We ate here two successive mornings and much appreciated the creative menu and the very personable, attentive staff! We didn't feel rushed at all. Bacon (yes! real meat is on the menu!), eggs, biscuits w/ gravy delish; breakfast bowl of hashbrowns, 2 eggs over easy, chorizo, cheddar, green chile sauce (bowls are 'create your own'). Cinnamon rolls were excellent. Reasonable prices! read more

Stopped in for breakfast one day, on our way out to run errands. Kind of a dive of a place, but they do have pretty good food. Nothing stood out, but nothing was bad either. Service was okay, and prices were decent. read more

Absolutely Outstanding food. Never disappointed. It is a local dinner so if you are a Bougie dressed in a suit and tie person you may not like how it looks. read more

Always great for a good breakfast. Service is outstanding and the food is delicious. Bring cash no credit or debit accepted

Well I have to update my review. My daughter and I went in last week and had a horrible experience. First my waitress was good BUT the owner / cook was appalling. My friend chicken can to my table FROZEN and when I made a complaint that it was a literal ice block my waitress went to get it fixed. One of the owners working then proceeded to microwave my frozen chicken and then sent it back to me. Picture is of the chicken returned to my table. This is not okay in the slightest. The waitress apologized and said "I've never seen a place other then this one not throw it in the trash and get you fresh cooked food" so I refused it and she had to go ask the other owner to come the food for me. Luckily for them he did, because I wasn't going to pay for it either way. No matter how good the food was my first visit I will not be back because of the owners behavior and seriously who microwaves chicken and then gives it to their customer?!? The sad part is my son and husband had frequented this place on a weekly basis for almost 2 months. But none of us will return due to the owner yelling at his waitress for his mistakes and all the above mentioned. (Because this was a one time issue is the only reason I didn't give 0 stars) read more

Mineral Restaurant - I cut this chicken open and it was frozen solid, kitchen microwaved it and have it back - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mineral, Virginia

If you like road side dinners, this one is for you. Bring cash as they do not accept cards. The serving sizes are large, I had the steak n cheese and I could not finish it. The pizza and calzones looked amazing and I'll admit to food envy. Do not get taken back by the interior as it is a little backdated and some areas could use repair. The restaurant makes up for it with the service and homey feel. read more

The mineral restaurant has good food..but the worst customer service I have ever seen! Prepare yourself not to be greeted by the waitresses or the owner...Today was the last straw ...a waitress just let me and my son stand there waiting...After years of being a Mineral resident and a customer...I am tired of being treated like my money ain't green..they will not get my business ever again! Not one visit was ever pleasant...definitely not people friendly..to everyone..they don't care about ur green money. read more

Went this morning for breakfast with my family. The waitress (Mandy) sat a tray with our drinks and someone else's food in front of my 4 year old son and when he went to grab it she grabbed his arm and ripped it away. After I gave her a dirty look for grabbing my child she pushed us off on another waitress; who shoved our food in front of us and never came back. They never brought my breakfast potatoes or toast out. When it was brought to the attention of the owner when I paid he didn't even apologize or subtract the cost of the food I never received. The waitstaff and owner are awful people. read more

Tried it once for breakfast. I think this place may be worse than Waffle House. Runny western omelette with a slice of square deli ham and single slice of American cheese thrown in, not fresh but frozen potatoes, toast topped with giant pools of fake butter. The place was dirty and my standards are pretty low. I live in mineral for 10 years and thought I would try it out today... I won't go back. I'll stick to my usual, the Mason Dixon Cafe in Fburg. read more

I've eaten here a number of times over the years mostly because there aren't many other choices in this neck of the woods. There is nothing to recommend about the food as the quality matches the low prices. Breakfast is good, mostly because it is hard to go wrong with eggs or pancakes. But even that is a bit messed up as they won't serve it past 11 weekdays. I don't know how late they serve breakfast on the weekends as I'm not willing to make the trip just to find out the only eggs I can have are in an egg salad sandwich. It's better than going hungry, but there is at least one better choice in town. read more

THIS IS A CASH ONLY PLACE, but there is an ATM next door at the gas station (walkable). That said, the place is worth it. The waitress is fast, courteous and her recommendation was perfect. The salad bar is really good as well. Lots of choices. We had the steak and cheese (the large is huge!) and a BLT on rye. We also enjoyed fries with gravy on the side, a delicacy, made all the better by their selfish gravy. It's a great place for a quick bite when you're on the road. Lots of good comfort food choices, but also smaller meals so the driver won't get stuck in a food coma. When we were there it seemed like the whole town was enjoying a Sunday-after-church meal, always a good sign! read more
