While driving to Virginia Beach, we were passing through Rio Grande, Ohio, when we noticed the…read morebillboards pointing to Twinkleberries Coffee. From the signs, it looked like a small local business, and we always enjoy supporting local entrepreneurs instead of the big chains, so we decided to stop. What a wonderful surprise! Twinkleberries is a Christian-owned business that shares a positive, uplifting message, something this world desperately needs. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed. The staff gave us attentive, personal service. There were already a few customers inside, and shortly after we arrived the shop filled up, which speaks well for this hidden gem. I ordered the Wagyu burger and a chai latte, and both were absolutely marvelous. My wife had the grilled cheese, a peach smoothie, and a London Fog. She has several food allergies and they were very accommodating to her needs. Everything was prepared to perfection and served with a warm smile. If you're passing through the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. Great food, delicious drinks, friendly people, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

Speaking as a tourist, to give other tourists an idea of what to expect:…read more - the atmosphere is top tier. As soon as you step in, you're greeted by Mothman- and other cryptid-themed trinkets and shirts (great souvenirs & stocking-stuffers). They have some pretty awesome original art for sale, which i didn't purchase, but did remind myself to check out again during future visits. There's a little hallway you have to walk through to get to the counter & seating area, which is spacious, has a ton of natural light, and the best wall decor. There's even a small restroom if needed. - because i went during the Mothman festival, i did have to wait in line, but not for a long time, probably 15 minutes maximum. Because there were so many people there, the staff gave me a pager that beeped when my order was ready, which was way more helpful than having to listen for my name being called. It took less than 5 minutes for my order to be made, so even though they were very busy, they were also very efficient! The staff were personable as well. - the ice cream itself was delicious. Naturally, i had to try the Mothman sundae, which i got with chocolate peanut butter ice cream. The chocolate was rich & the overall sweetness was complemented by stripes of salty peanut butter. I thought that the serving was a good size for the price

Nice little ice cream shop in Point Pleasant, WV when I was on a family road trip. The town is…read moreknown for the Mothman sightings from many decades ago, and they really embrace the paranormal to the point where some local businesses make it a theme. Aesthetically they nailed it, but outside of the gimmick this is your run of the mill ice cream place. Nothing is bad here, but nothing stands out either. I was a little put off by the lady in the front counter when I asked her what their best seller was. She looked at me with a bewildered expression and made me feel like I asked a stupid question, even going as far as to ask her fellow coworkers and none of them could give me a straight answer. I wasn't really pressing them for it, but the whole exchange was kind of awkward. Aside from that my wife and kids enjoyed their ice cream, and the sherbet I got was delicious as well.

The menu is huge, almost a little overwhelming so I settled on something chocolate and iced that was delicious. The seating looked really cozy and welcoming, if I had time I would have loved to hang out for a little. The service was prompt and friendly, so I look forward to stopped next time I'm driving through the area.

There are several who even remember what a person orders from time to time if they are a regular. The setting is comfortable and casual. It is a place where I often see people working and enjoying a coffee, tea, or other drink. Their bakery items are always fresh. I tried their seasonal Peach Cobbler Cold Brew. It is very possible that I have a new "go to" menu item, at least for the summer.

This time while in town I had to make two trips to Tudor's. Outstanding breakfast.

Tudor's must have taken over another fast food restaurant. Same foot print. Older building. But it was fine as we were there for one thing- B I S C U I T S! Cute group of 10 or so senior men were having their coffee and breakfasts together at one big table. "The Board of Directors" were wearing their fave sports team. They were adorable! Nice sense of community. FOOD = I was on a mission- country ham with melted cheese biscuits. Haven't had one in 25 years! My husband HERD (IYKYK) so much about Tudor's, he followed my lead and order himself a bonus bacon, egg and cheese. He was surprised by the size, but happily ate both. He gave Tudor's a thumbs up! And I was all smiles, and with a skip in my step. Coffee and Coke hit the spot for the long day ahead. So happy we didn't have the complimentary breakfast at our hotel down the street. SERVICE = Ordered inside. 7am October on a Saturday. No line. (There's a drive-thru too.) Placed order. They gave us cups to serve ourselves. They give you a number for the table and someone runs your order out to you. Quick, hot food service. Maybe 5 minutes. Cashier was friendly and patient as we got familiar with the menu board at 7am. VALUE - Yes. 3 Breakfast sandwiches (meat, cheese and/or egg) 1 Coffee 1 Soda $20.00 for 2 people. Will we be back? If we lived in state, YES! Wish we had Tudor's in South Florida. However, my waistline is thankful we don't. Probably my fave fast food restaurant. Consistently good, fresh products. (Only negative, wish they didn't use styrofoam cups for hot beverages.
