And I like to eat where the locals eat, no chain restaurants for me if at all possible. So with those thoughts in mind I decided to give this restaurant a try. I'm so happy to have found this restaurant! A really nice place, serving huge portions of fresh food. The french fries were freshly made and delicious, salads looked extremely fresh, and the service was quick with a great attitude. The restaurant and bathroom was clean and without any bad odors, wonderful value for lunch. I had the pulled pork sandwich with fries as you can see in my photos. Come hungry! Small little unassuming place that truly delivers!

This comes with two sides. The slaw was good, and the hash brown cheese casserole was okay. The corn muffin was decent, with just a hint of honey. The pulled pork was served on a slice of toast. My personal favorite sauce was WV Gold, but they're all quite good. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful by itself. Good friendly service. Prices are excellent, especially for the quality of food you are being served.

That was a few years ago, so I wanted to try again. We called on and off for the better part of 45 minutes. Only ever getting a recording, or it just rang and rang with no one answering. Maybe someday I'll get to try this place again. I'm glad your business is doing so well that you don't need to go orders! That's fantastic in this day and age! Kudos

The service has been just as good. Friendly staff, attentive, and we've never felt rushed. We were starving when the food came out, so I completely forgot to snap a picture before we started eating.

We stopped by the fort for lunch/dinner today, I have to say it's refreshing to see a place like…read morethis open up in the area! From what I experienced, they're doing a lot of things right. The food felt legitimately high quality, like they're putting real care into the ingredients and preparation. I ordered the steak, and it was flavorful with a really good garlic butter that complemented it perfectly. Juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just how I wanted. The loaded fries were excellent too (maybe a touch salty, but in that addictive way), and they came with this awesome ranch that tied everything together. I got the half order, and let me tell you, it was massive. Easily enough for 3-4 people to share. The mac and cheese was solid as well, creamy and comforting without being over the top. What surprised me most was the value. For the caliber of food and the portions they're serving, the prices were very reasonable. Honestly better than I expected for something this good. Service was on par, if not a bit more professional than you'd usually find at a casual spot like this. Everyone was attentive without being pushy, and it made the whole meal feel smooth. Overall, I'm excited they're here. The Fort feels like a welcome addition. Solid execution on the basics, generous portions, and a vibe that makes you want to come back. If you're in the Charleston area and looking for a good meal without breaking the bank, definitely give it a try. I'll be returning soon. Highly recommended!

I would call it more of a local bar than a Café, that said the staff was friendly dining room and facilities clean. We sat at the bar for lunch and Michele the bartender took good care of us. I had the Philly cheesesteak and onion rings and Kathy had the special of the day which was fish and chips with hush puppies, slaw and homemade tartar sauce. All was good, reasonably priced. If you're ever driving down Route 35 and go through Nitro West Virginia it's worth a stop!

I dont remember our server's name but he was ok. Food was really good but for not being busy took a very long time.

I had first heard about it on their last day of the season in 2021. 2022 they didn't open for personal reasons, so we were excited to hear about the opening this year! We went for lunch, and we were not disappointed! The portions were large, messy, and so incredibly delicious! While people with better manners than I might have gone for a fork, I made do with my hands and a stack of napkins! We both got the deep fried tacos, which were literally as big as our heads. Filled with meat, cheese, banana peppers, jalapeños, tomato, onion and shredded lettuce, these things were massive! We chatted with the owners, and if we weren't sold on the place before, their enthusiasm, personality and love of the people of WV would have done it! They were gearing up for the busy weekend ahead of travelers and trail riders, and we look forward to returning!
