I stumbled upon the Surrey Diner--a small, hole-in-the-wall gem just off the interstate behind a…read moregas station--and this quaint little diner packs a punch! They've got a fryer, flat top, and grill--old-school diner essentials. I had a burger and fries, and it was exactly what you'd hope for. The flame-broiled burger was juicy, full of that perfect beef flavor, nestled on a soft bun. The classic crinkle-cut fries were just right. But beyond the food, the atmosphere was something special. The staff was friendly, and the patrons were straight out of a small-town diner scene. There were two elderly couples sharing a meal, one distinguished white-haired gentleman with a cane and his wife with a classic beehive hairstyle, and a pair of hardworking blue-collar "bubbas" who looked like they'd just stepped out of the auto shop for lunch. The jukebox was playing classic '50s tunes, adding to the nostalgic vibe. If you want a genuine, heartwarming diner experience, I highly recommend stopping in. I'll definitely be back if I'm ever in town again!

With two kids in tow, we were worried there would be a wait, but thanks to summer break, we were seated quickly and all of the staff were super friendly and attentive. Holy moly, the eggs. I have no idea what magic they put into them (maybe butter?), but they were sooo flavorful! My kids (who are moderately picky, especially with their scrambled eggs) scarfed them down and asked me for a few bites of my omelette. The kids cleaned their plates (pancakes, egg, bacon) and so did my husband and I! I got a simple meat & cheese omelette (w sausage) and expected a pretty standard omelette - but those eggs, man. Those eggs! Hubs got western omelette with ham, and same. Go get Joe's eggs!! You won't regret it. Added bonus points for a deliciously fluffy biscuit and hot, yummy coffee!

We came in on the morning of 11/16 after we checked out of Main St Inn. Our plan was to grab a late…read morebreakfast, do a little shopping, tour Blacksburg to witness how much it's changed, then attend the basketball game. Joe's was a nice start to the day as they provide good food and good service within a tiny, but capable venue. Joe's is located near the Main St-College Ave intersection, next door to Hokie Hair (mind you, College Ave is no longer open to traffic, it's now a huge sidewalk). They are small and, since all the buildings along this portion of Main St are older, its interior is dark and dated. A makeover could be in order, but its old school look and feel lends itself to the friendly small town vibe I've become accustomed to in Blacksburg. This diner was nearly full, so we sat at the bar. There were three servers on the floor - all students. All three were friendly, helpful and loquacious (we talked about college in general, how to take advantage of a college's resources, and even discussed desired future outcomes of their educations - plenty of interesting topics for a chill Sunday morning). Neal had the t-bone steak and eggs, while I ordered a dish known as Joetaters (diced potatoes, cheddar jack, eggs, onions, peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms; and a choice of either bacon, ham, country ham, or sausage). Joetaters also came with a choice of white or wheat toast (or you can choose a biscuit for an extra $1.50). I chose wheat toast, and the entree was excellent. Neal ate his entire meal, so it's safe to say we enjoyed our food. Joe's is an excellent diner with awesome food and service. I can't wait to dine there again when I return. Thank you, Joe's Diner!

The place outside/inside wasn't much to look at but the reviews said the food was good. The reviews were right about the food, and sketchy bathrooms. It didn't mention the gnats and flys we shared our lunch with. While I killed several, I think they were just the scouts... The salad was fresh with peppers, tomatoes, and cucumber. The Stromboli and "taste of Italy " were delicious. Overall service and food were EXCELLENT but I don't think I could dine in again. Get your food to go and you will enjoy.

Let's start with the things I loved: the servers were super friendly and there were a lot of them,…read moreso also super prompt. The menu had a huge selection and the prices were fair. And the food itself was...above average, I'd say. Nothing stunning, but okay stuff. Now, the dislikes: really small seating area with some rickety wooden chairs. If you can't fit in a booth, they have like one 4 person table and the rest tiny 2 person ones. The chicken stromboli I got came served on a small metal plate that was hard to eat from, and the bathrooms were pretty terrible. About what you'd expect in a high traffic place like this at a truck stop. It's overall a 3 star place, I'd say. Nothing great, nothing awful, would consider stopping again if I'm in the area. Next time I'll try the gyro.
