    It's the secret sauce that'll have you smacking your lips A cozy cafe with the friendliest smiles! Sandwiches galore and they're DELICIOUS!! Oooohhhh and the fries are perfectly seasoned and crispy. We enjoyed dining in and also noticed several patrons had call-in orders. Back to the secret sauce, we're waiting for her to bottle it up so we can purchase some for home. Go for the sauce, stay for the food!

    What a great restaurant. Simple but delicious dishes! Everything is cooked and spiced to perfection. The train wreck sandwich is wonderful - lightly battered. Becker with jalapeño, pineapple, and bacon - delicious. Their side Cole slaw is also great. But their Mexican Street Corn is the best! So glad this place is here. So few other good options locally. This is a must try!!

    Interior; order at the register

    We LOVE finding little "hole-in-the-wall" local places like this. It's quite unassuming on the outside, but the interior is clean, spacious, and adorned with railroad decor. There are both indoor and covered outdoor patio seating areas. We stopped in for lunch on a Tuesday in late April. Ordering at the counter, and service were prompt and pleasant. We had a daily special: Commuter Sandwich w/ macaroni salad, and a Trainwreck Sandwich w/ Cole slaw. Both sandwiches were excellent. The sides were top-notch and tasted homemade. I could have eaten bowls of just the Mac salad or Cole Slaw and been very happy! If you're in the area or just passin' through, Railway Cafe is a GREAT little lunch stop.

    Great find during my birthday trip! Incredible food, inspiring business owner and cook, excellent service, and top notch customer focus! Thoughtful restaurateur gifted me a piece of her chocolate cake for my birthday! Can't wait to return!

    It's my sisters place so I'm bias, How ever she is an amazing chef and all the food is amazing. They have in house signature sauce and seasoning which is so good. I definitely recommend you checking them out

    I ate here today with my parents who live in the area. There is a nice area outside with several tables, in addition to the indoor seating. I really enjoyed the hotdog with everything and the seasoned fries. Sweet tea was delicious too. There were several more things on the menu that I would like to try sometime. I'll be back when I'm in the area again.

The only reason for a missing star is that this environment is not for everyone. It's terrific if you want to bring your children to a place where they can totally entertain themselves while you enjoy a lunch with friends. I was looking for a quiet place where I could relax. That was difficult with a little girl (even though she was precious and cute) screaming and riding a skateboard inside. I was glad that she and her little brother could just be themselves and have a great time, but that can be somewhat problematic for diners. Just be aware going in that if this isn't your style you may just want to get a take out.

The Buckin' Elk is a turkey BLT with avacado, and whatever fixin's you want. We also had the Italian - salami and cheese, lettuce, tomato, whatever you want. Great! Serving sizes are ample - actually, two could share a sandwich. Limited sides - pasta salad, etc. Packaged chips. Service was quick and friendly. ** They use local lettuce, from Greenhouse Towers in State Road. They use a pesticide free, aeroponic tower garden system. They provide greens for Hugh Chatham Hospital and a number of area restaurants. We highly recommend Kaye's.

    Tried this new to us spot in Martinsville this morning on a rec from my daughter who had stopped in…read morelast weekend. Cute and welcoming and spotlessly clean. We were seated right away and all the staff from start to finish were friendly and responsive. I ordered the lemon blueberry pancakes, my husband the French toast and a side of bacon. We chose to share a cinnamon roll. The pancakes were two, very large (bigger than the plate!) pancakes with whole berries in them, topped with a large scoop of fresh, thick whipped cream, topped with more blueberries. Served with a side of maple syrup. Absolutely delicious! I could taste the lemony flavor with the first bite. Not overwhelming, but nicely flavored. 10/10 would order again. My husband's French toast was outstanding- also accompanied by a large scoop of the whipped cream, fresh mixed berries and maple syrup. He doesn't normally order French toast, but he loved this dish here. The side of bacon was a delightful surprise - it was crisp and slightly candied and utterly delicious. 10/10 would order again. The only disappointment was the cinnamon roll. It was served cold, a bit tough (maybe the dough was over-worked?), a little dry and not as cinnamony-sugary-buttery as one would expect. The cream cheese icing was lovely, but not enough to make this roll a winner. Overall a great experience though and we will be back!

I would absolutely get this again!!Super flavorful, great texture, and just hit the spot. Easily the highlight of our visit! My husband got the Corsco, which unfortunately wasn't as great. The version he received looked noticeably different from what was pictured on the online menu. To their credit, the staff remade it for him in a sun-dried tomato wrap instead of the white bread it originally came with, he said it was much better in the wrap. But he would try something else next time. The atmosphere here is definitely unique -- dog-themed and very cute. I loved their branded tumblers; honestly, I might swing back just to buy one. It did take a while to place our order, but the crowd makes it clear this place has a loyal following. As for the sides, they didn't impress. I had the potato salad -- pretty bland until I added some salt and pepper. My husband had the spiral pasta salad, which we'd rate around a 6/10. It's a little hard to find -- kind of tucked away and easy to miss -- but if you're curious, it's worth checking out at least once. You might just find your new favorite sandwich! I want to try their salads next.
