The Junkyard Dog is a good, fast-paced place with a limited menu that people can go for lunch or during their break. The Junkyard Dog serves up all-beef hot dogs featuring Chicago-style dogs, New York-style dogs, and the local favorite: chili cheese Coney. In addition to hot dogs, chili and "monster" baked potatoes (that can be smothered in chili) are main-menu items. Hot ham and cheese and the "cheese freak," a grilled cheese sandwich featuring over 2 ounces of melted cheese, are also on the menu. At this time, the "mom and pop hot dog joint" as co-owner George Currey describes his shop, is only open on weekdays, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. He hopes that maybe in the future he can have the space available for parties, meetings, and other gatherings that take place after the restaurant's lunchtime hours.

After totally wiping out on lunch options in Lynchburg, I started on the drive home and decided I'd…read moreeat in Fayetteville instead. Ken's Fast Foods wound up being the call. I wasn't disappointed! This is a smaller, older looking restaurant. They were busy even for a late lunch around 2 PM. There's not a ton of parking and some of it is on an incline, but it worked out okay for me. Inside there are about 6-7 small tables and a spot to order at the counter. The menu consists of classic American fast food options, like burgers, chicken tenders, and fries. It reminds me a little bit of a drive-in spot just because it is so nostalgic-feeling. The service was spot-on and so nice. The ladies working were beyond pleasant and helpful and many seemed to know the local customers quite well. My food came out quickly and was nice and hot. I ordered a bacon hamburger and a side of fries. Portion sizes here are pretty reasonable and appropriate for the lower price, though if you come with a big appetite I would recommend getting a double or something. Fortunately, I didn't need a huge meal that late in the day, so I was happy with my order. The burger was cooked nicely, the bun was soft, and the bacon was flavorful and crispy if not particularly thick-cut. The fries had a lot of gooey-hot potatoey insides and went well dipped in ketchup. Simple, fast, and tasty food here! I'd recommend and would visit again if I find myself back in the area.

This food is excellent and honestly one of a kind for what it is. Prices are dirt cheap, but the quality is way better than you'd expect. If you go, get the classic sweet heat dog, the meat lovers pizza with ranch, and a Pepsi Zero. That combo doesn't miss. It's the perfect place for lunch, a midnight snack, or just hanging with friends. Seating is limited, but you can usually find a spot. Overall: 5/5 this place has my heart.

(Right now I'm thinking Bison Dog - another favorite carnivore treat of mine....maybe a 'brisket' brat.) You know, maybe I'll order for the whole family and we'll have a share-a-thon of these delightful creations from Jim and Stella (owners) at Smokey Doggs.
