Food was great! I would highly recommend. Great customer service and the ambiance is nice as well. Local spot that has a great vibe. Check it out! read more

It was our first time visiting the Battlefield Restaurant and it was clear upon entering that the place was a legend among locals. As soon as the door opened we were greeted by the staff and could tell the patrons were long time loyalists. The menu was filled with staples like omelettes and also fun and creative food like pancake of the week. This week was frosted circus cookies and was delicious. Not too sweet and light fluffy pancake. The breakfast grilled cheese reminded me of Denny's moons over my hammy but had the addition of a hash brown patty. Who says no to that. The mural painted on the back wall sets the Fredericksburg tone. The staff was friendly and the vibe certainly was of your local hang out. read more

I stopped in to order to go. I ordered an egg and cheese on Texas toast and home fries. The staff is friendly and helpful. The inside is decorated with civil war decor. The egg and cheese were excellent. The eggs and cheese were blended just right. The home fries were good but some were not cooked all the way. One thing to remember here is that when paying you can't leave a tip on your card, you have to leave a tip on different cash apps or use cash if you want to leave a tip. read more

Pizza-sized pancakes. I'm not sure what else there is to say. The place is definitely a dive which is how I like my breakfast. We sat at the bar which allowed us to watch the chefs in action. They were quite a well orchestrated team. I got the egg sandwich, date for an omelet. Both good. Home fries are the way I like them - cut up into smaller pieces so they can get crispier rather than feeling like it's a huge hunk of potato. Biscuit was fresh and warm. Coffee refilled after. We will be back for the big pancake for sure. Keep in mind it's definitely a diner. The building and decor are not fancy by any stretch. That's how I like it. I'm not sure everyone else does. read more

Battlefield Restaurant - Look at the size of that pancake. It's called a "family sized pancake." - American Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

Prices are reasonable and the service was great. The ambiance is rustic and clean. Now, about the food. Yes, there giant pancakes if that is your thing. I had the vegetable omelet with American cheese and home fries with a side order of biscuit and gravy. The omelet was ok. The cheese woukd be better if cheddar. Definitely melted cheese but almost made me think a cheese product and not real cheese. The country potatoes are tiny frozen potatoes with added onion. Overly crispy and burnt. The biscuit was fine but the sausage gravy is typical white sauce that tastes too much of flour. My opinion? They could have done a much better job with a little more effort and different recipes. . My experience? 43 years of cooking including 5 years as a recipe tester for American Test kitchen. read more

Stopped here for breakfast since it's right next to the Fredericksburg National cemetery and Maryes Heights. We got basic omelets and bacon and sausage. It would have been only average if the food wasn't overly salty. When I paid the bill they just ran the bill without allowing a tip. I was told to venmo the tip. I did. It's stupid. Some will not .... because it's stupid ... especially if your dinners think the food wasn't worth it. The service was fine though. read more

My sister and I saw a video of the huge pancake on social media and thought we'd give it a try. It's right across from the Fredericksburg National Cemetery (battlefield), so we could make an afternoon of it. It was a fun experience! The big pancake was tasty, as was sausage, egg and cheese biscuit I ate. My sister was happy with her omelet and we got a big pizza box to take our pancake home, which we barely dented. Our server, Cindy, was knowledgeable and fun. Loved 90s classics soundtrack. Note: no tipping on your card and checks are paid diner style. read more

Very cute "local" establishment which is a stones throw from the Fredericksburg National Battlefield. Service was excellent and breakfast was reasonably priced. The food came out quickly. The Mrs. ordered eggs (2), bacon, home fries and pancakes. The server as if she wanted a large pancake or smaller ones. She ordered "smaller." I ordered the biscuits with sausage gravy, home fries and eggs (2) over easy. We saw the server delivering a large pancake to a nearby table. LOL It must have been a minimum of 12"!!! Crazy big. Both choices were $13.99. Keep in mind, that includes coffee so we thought the prices were very reasonable. We both enjoyed it a lot. After that big breakfast, no lunch was required. I'm deducting one star because my eggs were cooked beyond "easy" and the potatoes in the home fries were diced to small for my liking. read more

Heard about this place for a while and finally stopped in on a weekday morning... Service was great! The place is like an old style, neighborhood diner... I definitely loved the vibe. The menu is loaded with all the normal breakfast and lunch items you'd expect from an American-style (not Greek) diner. Prices are very reasonable too! But take cash for the tip, as they don't add tips to their credit card receipts. I tried their corned beef hash omelet and found it interesting to learn that they make 2 or 3 egg omelets, and the ask you which you want when you order... I've never seen this before, but I liked it... having a choice is nice when deciding how big your omelet will be! I also ordered a cup of sausage gravy with it, as it came with a biscuit. The omelet was really good! Their house-made shredded potatoes were excellent, especially with onions added! And their sausage gravy was great! The biscuit was also perfectly done. In all, this was a really nice, tasty breakfast!! Highly recommend stopping in!! Plus - you never know who you might see here... A recent national celebrity was there the morning I went... Someone who recently won "The Voice" was just having breakfast and socializing in a very chill atmosphere... Awesome! read more

Sunday's are usually our morning outing for breakfast at Battlefield Restaurant, the service is usually good and the owner is really nice, but we went a couple of times when she wasn't there and it wasn't so good, so we brought it to the owner attention about our serving of scrapple that was paper thin and the people eating next to us scrapple was very thick, we are African American and the people next to us were Caucasian after three times of seeing this we started feeling some kind of way, issue was not fixed, and the apology was not sincere we will not be going back. read more

Love this place! They are one of few places that offer turkey bacon/sausage as an option (up charge). They have the biggest pancakes I've ever seen if you decide to get those. Love the fried potatoes as well. They staff is always nice as well. Today one of the staff assisted me with carrying my food to my vehicle bc I had purchase those huge pancakes. Definitely a must try read more

Battlefield Restaurant has really good food and great service. The chipped beef and gravy was definitely the highlight for me -- rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You can tell it's homemade and made right. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff is friendly, and everything came out fresh and hot. Solid local spot that's worth stopping by if you're in the area. read more

Food was very good, great service, welcoming ambiance. We'll be going again and definitely recommend

Nice little place - kind of like Cheers for breakfast. Owner operated since 1952! Very reasonable pricing, great service & the food was very good! read more

Charming classic diner near downtown Fredericksburg - a bit of a dive but that's what made it charming. Biggest pancakes I've ever seen in my life - literally the size of a serving platter! We had lunch - I appreciated that their tuna salad wasn't full of mayo amd the blt was excellent. Service was quick and friendly. The only weird part was they don't accept tips on credit cards so either cash or app payments to the server like venmo, paypal etc. We use none of those apps and do not carry cash so be aware if you are a first timer like us. read more

We love this little restaurant and always drive down to bring family for a bite! From their ginormous pancakes to their breakfast specials, you really can't go wrong with this place. Wait staff has always been kind and very efficient. It's cozy but it's part of its charm. Love the chipped beef and biscuits read more

Love their breakfast!!! Best pancakes so fluffy and generous portions -Friendly staff. Reasonable prices.

Good comfort food indeed. Service was great as well. The ambiance was not to overwhelming as I went with my fam

The service was exceptional, the server promptly took our order and checked to see if anything was needed after the order. The restaurant seating is no frills diner style. The food was well prepared and I would definitely go back. The only caution was that the dining area was not well ventilated and our clothes soaked in all the grill smells. read more

I used to go here when I was a kid but for some unknown reason I stopped. I was getting ready for a ride and decided to stop by and get some breakfast. What a great decision. The staff was friendly and engaged with the patrons. I ordered the standard breakfast. The prices were competitive with other places. The cook brought out the biggest pancake ever because it just came off the griddle and he wanted me to get it hot. Seconds later the rest came. Everything was delicious. I could only eat 1/2 of the pancake. Battlefield will become a regular stop. read more

Quality comfort food executed flawlessly - great breakfast - service attentive - comfortable setting (parking is limited).

Great service and great food. The staff was very attentive. It was hopping on a Saturday morning.

This is the sweetest place you will find in Fredericksburg. The service is excellent, and the people remember you and care about making you feel special. This restaurant is very small, but adorable. It feels like going home. The food is very good - homestyle, for sure. If you love pancakes, you can order a giant pancake for the table which will be enough for a meal and to take home. The eggs, home fries, bacon, and biscuits are all delicious. The hot dog is good, but the toasted bun is even better. The onion rings are cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Although I don't want it to get too popular because there will easily be lines out the door! read more

Never got to place an order. The one person they have taking orders skipped us and handled other people that came in after us. Hard to say - was it because we were African American?? Will never know. read more

We love Battlefield. The coffee is great and breakfast until 1 PM or longer is great! Battlefield is open until 2 PM and reopens at 4 PM for dinner, but we do love brunch there. My husband usually gets eggs over easy, French toast and hash browns, me, I'm two eggs over, Rye toast, grits or scrapple. Perfect. Plus Texas Pete hot sauce. Oh, yes! Battlefield is as comfortable as home! Best hang ever! read more

Every Monday I go to their FB page to see what the featured shake for week is. I've even tried one and it was very good. Nice country store that makes tasty sandwiches to order, ice cream, and natural and locally sourced grocery store. This place is almost always packed and for good reason. The food is good and the ice cream delicious. read more

Amazing pancakes, good value. Be prepared to wait a while for the food! Diner style place.

After looking and walking around the Battlefield of Fredericksburg, I had a wonderful meal at Battlefield Restaurant. You will be served good bacon, bacon and eggs and steaks. The unique characteristic of this restaurant is serving tasty biscuits, pancakes and French toasts. Come here and order great coffee, ice tea or juice. The warm atmosphere of Battlefield Restaurant allows guests to relax after a hard working day. The positive aspect of this place is that the staff is energetic. If you want to enjoy fabulous service, you should go to this spot. read more

The service was ok. I ordered a ham sandwich and it was really good I only ate a 4th of a half of my sandwich. The meat was really fresh . This was my first time in this store. Will go back loved sitting outside. read more

My first time here today and didn't know what to expect. Not great on parking and it fills up fast but the service was excellent and the food was really good. I like that you can choose a 1-egg or 2-egg omelet. And I was able to and veggies to my Meat Lovers omelet at no extra charge. The waitress was very nice. I'm looking forward to going again. read more

Good home cooking for a fair price. Quick attentive service. Much better than the fast food joints off the interstate. Will definitely come back. read more

This is a place my family has been eating at for years. It was my first time and it is definitely a local place. The menus are a bit tattered but the food was typical diner food. I had scrambled eggs, toast and sliced tomatoes. It was good, tomatoes could have been a bit more ripe. We also had biscuits and gravy and eggs and pancakes. We ate it all and several cups of coffee. I see why it is a staple for many. I will be back when in town again. read more

This is your fathers home cookin restaurant. No credit cards, only local checks and cash. This is the kind of place I like to go for a country breakfast. You can sit up at the bar, watch the action in the kitchen and drink a good cup of coffee. I had two eggs over easy, grits, hash browns and toast. It was just what i wanted and April was friendly and had a great sense of humor. It's not a fancy place and parking can be a challenge but if you are looking for a good country breakfast close to downtown Fredericksburg, this is your place! read more

I'm a fan. Just a wonderful bigger than a hole in the wall local place. If your looking for country chic atmosphere meets got no money to buy fancy furnishings this is your place. It is right in front of the battlefields, thus the name. I had the single biscuit with country sausage gravy and a side of over easy eggs-grits are also included. The eggs were one to perfection and the sausage gravy with biscuit was awesome. Not as good as mine but really good and I didn't have to cook it. The other order was scrambled eggs (not liquid stuff - real cracked eggs), hash browns, two sausage patties and a biscuit. Again, no complaints. Two iced teas, free refills of course. Our waitress was so nice and we had a bit of local customer entertainment. Some people just use their outside voice all the time. So much fun eating breakfast and learning/hearing exact movie lines repeated. Prices were so reasonable. I would definitely come back here again. Cheap food, good food, friendly waitresses, eclectic. Love it ! read more

Three stars for a good,solid, basic breakfast. If you are looking for avocado toast or sage infused tea this is not the place. However if you are looking for a salt of the earth diner that has bacon & eggs or sausage gravy on biscuits this is your place. The Battlefield Restaurant is an echo of the small town eatery where locals meet and discuss the days events over coffee. It's the kind of place that will remind you of simpler times. We've only eaten breakfast there, but noticed they have liver and onions on the dinner menu... this is the sign of a good diner! read more

I honestly don't understand the hype. The food served here is literally nothing more than what the average person can whip up in their own kitchen at a fraction of the cost. The cheese in my eggs was still clumpy from lack of cooking it thoroughly enough to melt. The toast came with cold butter and because the toast wasn't hot the butter had to be scraped on and stayed pretty damn solid. The food was completely underseasoned. My 4 yr old wouldn't even eat her Mickey Mouse pancakes after a single bite, "I dont like them they're not good." This from a pancake monster. Lol. I will say...the people are absolutely awesome. Customer service is top notch. That in itself is a rare find. But the food? Big pass. read more

The service was dismissive and slightly rude. I've had nicer service at waffle house. The veggie omelet was actually really delicious. Grits were quite nasty. My sister got pancakes, sausage, and potatoes. It was all terrible. How do you mess up pancakes? It had such an odd taste. The sausage was like the bottom of a shoe. Potatoes doused in salt. I knock them a thousand stars for only having one free refill on coffee. Most ridiculous thing ever! We will not be coming back here. read more
