I've stopped here several times with my family, most recently with my partner. I will write the review based off my most recent visit. We visited on a Sunday, so it was understandably busy. That's pretty common for restaurants. One area that could use improvement I will note is the waiting/ host area. It felt somewhat disorganized, and guests seemed unsure where to stand or who was next in line. There was a host stand but no one there when we came in. Servers kept walking past. People were coordinating among themselves to determine the order of queue. Adding clearer signage or having a set host could help create a smoother experience for busy days. The food was average overall. Our waitress was friendly, and offered recommendations despite the busy time. After being seated, there was a wait before our drink order was taken. Honestly while waiting on my drink, I browsed the menu and already was ready to order by time they took our drinks. once that was taken, the food arrived within a reasonable timeframe. The restrooms were the biggest ick of our visit. They had single bathrooms with clear vacancy indicators on the doors with working locks. They were running low on toilet paper, dark, and there was a smell that was similar to a hot, sweaty gas station. On a positive note, plenty of parking with spaces both in front of the restaurant and in a larger lot on the side of the building. Signs to get to there were clear both on the highway exits and near the business. Overall, the experience was okay. I think we would come back for food and sit-down experience. The food was decent and convenient for a road stop, but i would highly suggest cleaning the bathrooms and strengthening the host/waiting area for rushes. read more

Pink Cadillac Diner - Burger and fries - Diners Near Me - Natural Bridge, Virginia

In my continuing efforts to get a hot dog in each county in Virginia, I pulled into the Pink Cadillac Diner for an early lunch on a Thursday in Rockbridge County, Virginia. It was quiet as we walked up but two vans of tourists pulled in right behind us so we quickly got inside and were sat. The vibe of the place was very classic. I especially liked the pink coffee mugs. We had looked at the menu online in advance so we had settled on our order. We got The King, peanut butter, banana, and bacon, Elvis's favorite sandwich with an order of onion rings. With permission from our server we also got a hot dog off of the children's menu with chili, mustard, and cole slaw on the side, with a side of fries. Our food came out quickly. The sandwich was a nice size on really well-toasted bread. I couldn't taste much bacon. The peanut butter and the bananas were the primary flavors. The hot dog was good. The chili was stew-chili and not a classic hot dog chili. The big tomato chunks were the big clue as it was set down in front of me. That being said, we still enjoyed it (we split and shared both). The onion rings were especially good. Our server was really kind and attentive even while she got pulled away to help with the big group that came in after us. I think this place is definitely worth a stop for a bit of nostalgia. I think I'll be back for a ice cream treat! read more

I stopped into Pink Cadillac Diner with my partner during a long travel day filled with traffic (week before Thanksgiving), and it ended up being such a fun and nostalgic break! The diner is decked out in 1950s décor with Elvis Presley touches, the menu pays tribute to the King and his favorite foods -bacon and peanut butter anyone? We ordered burgers, my partner got the Mac Attack, and it looked absolutely delicious, (mac and cheese on a burger) with sweet potato fries. I went with a regular hamburger and added the Pink Cadillac sauce on the side plus pickles. Highly recommend both additions! Service was friendly, and the food hit the spot without taking too long, which was perfect for us while on the road. Overall, a great little pit stop with yummy comfort food and a playful retro atmosphere including a jukebox and ice cream counter. read more

Pink Cadillac Diner - Buffalo chicken wrap! Delicious! - Diners Near Me - Natural Bridge, Virginia

We arrived for breakfast and stood at the host stand forever before being acknowledged or seated. When we were seated it was in a dirty booth that had not been wiped. The server (Chloe) knew it had not been wiped because she cleaned the last of it while we were standing there. Luckily I have kids and brought wipes so I took care of it myself, I also wiped up the strands of stranger hair left behind in the booth seat. The atmosphere wasn't terrible, the place has potential and was relatively busy. The food was not great. No sausage in the biscuits and gravy, dry biscuit. Overcooked gristly sausage. Small portions. If you're on the road and starving, it's food. But do not expect anything spectacular. read more

Good food, great service. And haven't been there for awhile but it was always good. It's a quaint restaurant that takes you back in time.

My son and I stopped in for lunch the other day. We arrived like around 1130, so easily found a seat. We both ordered the big double cheeseburger with fries, it had a name I can't recall but everything is Elvis themed!) More people filed in; seemed to be both locals and families traveling. Anyway the food came quickly, it was outstanding, the server was prompt and attentive refilling our drinks and checking on us. I've gone by this spot a bunch and never stopped. It was a treat to be with my boy and the timing was right for us to stop in for lunch. I'm anxious to try breakfast, so i'll be back. In the meantime, its a cool local diner with a cool Elvis vibe. Don't be Cruel, or a Suspicious Mind ,and even without your Blue Suede Shoes, you Can't Help Falling in Love with the Pink Cadillac Diner! ;) read more

Restaurant was just remodeled. Booths had holes in them. Best of all was there hamburgers and sweet potato fries. Hamburgers looked like Man made beef. I was afraid to eat it. Tomatoes slices were white on the center. Sweet potato fries were a $1.75 upgrade. They were waffle fries that were cooked enough to be called sweet potato chips. Bathroom was dirty. Why would I ever give this place another try! On a positive note, the server was really nice. read more

There was mold on my bagel and I believe I am getting sick from it. I don't recommend getting a bagel from the south ever again come to New York for a bagel instead. The ambience itself was very cool, but looks can obviously be deceiving. My mother had a freaking dog hair in her coffee..... try again Virginia read more

Okay so last year we visited the Pink Cadillac Diner for the first time. I'm not sure what their known for but certainly not the burgers. Last year it was very dry and unflavorful pattie. My son and I both ordered well done burgers my was his was the very rare side of med. He had fries said they were fine. I had onion ring that were a bit heavy with fry oil. Great theme and location I'll probably stick to the hand dipped ice cream if I venture back. read more

We enjoyed the chicken wild rice soup with large house salad. Also, a steak and cheese sub with fries. The service was friendly and prepared to answer questions They knew their menu This place has been given a "glow up in January 26 and reopened in February. It is freshened, quaint, nostalgic and yes, a pink Cadillac outside. A lot of Elvis in there with music. A really nice stop off I-81. read more

Upon arrival, we were told a 30 min wait to be seated even though there were multiple tables open and multiple servers working. We finally got sat and ordered our food, I ordered the Mack Burger which comes with mac&cheese and bacon, my husband ordered The King which is a peanut butter, banana and bacon sandwich, and my toddler got the kids chicken nuggets. It took 45 mins to get our food. My husband's peanut butter sandwich was terrible and he ordered sweet potato fries which were cold and hard. They brought him out regular fries instead. I decided to order a side salad after I received my food which ended up being $6.... My burger was overcooked and dry. I ordered it medium. Really disappointing and honestly don't recommend. Apparently they have new management and I can bet it's pretty disappointing for the previous owner to see the reviews like this one. Also, for an Elvis themed restaurant, they didn't have any music playing or any of his movies or anything. Really unexciting atmosphere. read more

Stopped here on vacation driving the Blue Ridge Parkway. Old fashion dinner with a 50 theme and great 'comfort' food. Burger and shake were good, portions were BIG and the order of Deep Fried pickles would have served 6, but I ate most of them myself as they were that good! Had an old fashion ice cream shop next door that I wish I had any appetite left at all to stop there. Next time! read more

Pink Cadillac Diner - Deep Fried Pickles! - Diners Near Me - Natural Bridge, Virginia

I love this place! The setting is unique and different. It's not fancy but it's clean and fun to look around at all the memorabilia. They have a nice menu and the best onion rings ever! I don't usually order onion rings because they are usually too greasy or doughy. But theirs are light and crispy and the onions are always perfectly cooked. We appreciate that it's a pretty drive and closer to us than going into town. Lots of parking. Just a down to earth diner - with a nostalgic vibe. read more

Slow service. Not as busy as the wait staff thinks as they run around. Maybe slow kitchen staff? Just good ole comfort food - easy eggs and bacon and home fries. We stopped because it was a PINK building on a back highway and we were hungry! read more

This place had a pretty cool vibe, though the food was mediocre. The omelette and hashbrown casserole were pretty good, but the steak wasn't good, and the biscuit was inedible because it was so hard. It was a cool experience with the vibe of the diner and our very kind server, but I can't say I'd go back. read more

Pretty good food! Nice waiters and the food was quick to come out. Chill atmosphere. I would recommend.

Womp womp. Decided to try this place because it was super close to Dinosaur Kingdom II, but it was a bust. The whole theme made it seem promising, but, unfortunately, it was pretty dirty inside. The bathrooms had toilet paper all over, no paper towels, and absolutely no soap-- my daughter and I had to go to the men's bathroom to wash our hands. The water temperatures were reversed-- right is hot and left is cold. My poor toddler kept screaming about how hot the water was while washing her hands until I realized what was happening. Our booth was not much better. Everything was kind of sticky and the floor under our feet was pretty gross. A table near by also had kids and one accidentally knocked their drink over. Our waitress, whom was helping another table, said to leave it and she would bring out a few towels. The spill definitely sat there for a bit before anyone came back to clean it up. When we left, there were still napkins laying on the floor. When I had gone to check out, another table apparently had a spill and our waitress definitely wasn't happy. She expressed that if another table had a spill, she was going home. The food looked okay, but wasn't... I got the Shut Yo Mouth burger without the slaw. I asked for it to be cooked medium, it was well done. The pulled pork was probably the best part of it. The fries were absolutely terrible. I don't know when they were made, but they were stone cold and had absolutely no seasoning. Even my 3 year old spit them out. My husband tried one of our daughters' chicken nuggets and said they tasted like grease... after she choked down like 3 of them. My son's pancakes were rubbery and he had so much trouble cutting them. My husband ordered the chicken biscuit breakfast and said the only redeeming part of the meal was the home fries. My daughter's meal came with ice cream, so we went to the ice cream bar to get it. I watched a ton of the staff walk by us without even acknowledging that we were standing there. Some teenage guy (the entire staff was pretty young-- teenagers and our waitress, who was probably in her early 20s) came over and got us our ice cream, but a to go order walked in behind us, so he made it a point to check on that guy's food first. For 2 adults and 2 kids, we spent $60, including tip, which is pretty ridiculous. Even if we were in the area again, we wouldn't return. read more

Meh. It wasn't great. We took a break from the nearby safari park and waited for about 45 minutes to be seated due to a kitchen backup; by the time we were, the restaurant had cleared out. We ordered burgers and chicken fingers and it was nothing to write home about. Decor was cute; we were seated in the larger area that had very little Elvis memorabilia. It was kind of gross that the mess on the floors from the last diners wasn't cleaned or swept up, but maybe they were going to eventually get to that. We can now say we've been there and done that... read more

Awesome breakfast deals, nice clean tables and dining room. Service was excellent and servers made good recommendations on menu options. Hash browns were excellent as were the breakfast burritos. My wife had eggs bacon and some awesome pancakes on the side. Prices were very reasonable and staff was very friendly. Nice 1950s decor with a jukebox and some Elvis style. read more

The pepto-bismol exterior will tell you that you are in the right place. The interior features Elvis nostalgia. The first thing that stood out for me was the service. Friendly, helpful, and attentive. Very down-home and comfortable. My daughter's salmon was nicely cooked (not dry) and well seasoned (tasty, but not overpowering the tender fish). I couldn't decide between the battered cod or the cubano sandwich so i asked the waitress. She agreed that it was a tough call, but her description of the sandwich sold me. It was wow! Super extraordinary and amazing. Wish I could've eaten it twice. The bread was especially nice; not just a carrier for the outstanding filling, but an integral component of this well-rounded flavor sensation. read more

The King would have been proud. Food like mama makes it. Hot fresh and delicious. This is our usual stop when traveling North or South on 81. Take look at their Burgers especially the Mac-Attack or the Elvis hubbba- hubba. No the staff doesn't break out in singing Jail House Rock but the certainly Love You Tender ( which also describes the chicken. Unique and photo worthy. Save room for ice cream. read more

I wish our experience was better but the food was not good at all. We ordered a medium burger with onion rings and a Reuben with fries. The burger was overcooked and had no flavor. The onion rings were overcooked yet somehow managed to be both soggy and dry. The meat on the Reuben was tough to eat and the fries were super dry. The restaurant itself looks like it hasn't been cleaned or maintained in a really long time. There was food debris on the floor, paint chipping off the walls, and the booths and tables were just overall dirty and grimy. We were super hungry and left wishing we had just driven an hour home to eat a meal we wouldn't regret. read more
