Randomly stopped in on our way north from Florida. Great surprise! Excellent food, ample portions, and very reasonably priced. The brisket was marvelous! And a great staff. I highly recommend Bonnie Blue if your in Virginia. Vin Pascucci read more

My friend came out to visit and she wanted to stop here for brunch. Seating is tight and since it's cold out no one is sitting outside. We were able to get a bar seat overlooking the parking lot. They do have a big round table if you have a few more ppl in your party. Our neighbor had a ginormous stack of plates and let me say he barely left anything on his plate. He had BBQ. We ordered b'fast food. My eggs were cooked to perfection, potatoes were on point and you got a lot of them, bacon was fantastic and it wasn't limp, and the white bread I had toasted was so yummy. My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy and she said it was delicious. Coffee was good and strong. I def want to come back to try the BBQ. read more

Cute little place! We came early on a Saturday morning and got right in. Service was fast! The French toast was great, but I kind of expected more from the apples. The bacon was good but a little too smoky for my liking! read more

Too bad I don't live in area. Found this place while visiting area. It was an early dinner for three of us so they were not busy. We sat inside which has limited seating. We ordered a three meat platter to share which was more than enough. We decided on brisket, pulled pork, ribs, baked beans and mac & cheese. Also ordered the loaded fries. Our son thought he needed a side salad while ordering which was too much food. The baked beans had more meat than beans. All meats were tender and taste great. Might be back in area in June and want to visit again. read more

Driving back to Washington, D.C. after a weekend in Romney, West Virginia riding the Potomac Eagle, we stopped at Bonnie Blue in Winchester on a Sunday morning. Being a perfect autumn day, they had lots of seating outdoors on their patios. To feed three of us, we ordered their highly recommended pork chops, which sounded odd at first for breakfast, but it was delicious. The pork chops were perfectly cooked and juicy. The brisket eggs benedict were tasty too. We enjoyed the Mason Jar Mimosas. The latte was just okay. Overall, it was a great experience! Staff were very friendly and quick! read more

We went on a weekend and parking is scarce in the lot associated with Bonnie Blue (we got lucky with our timing). There is also street parking available, if you're able to find a spot. Service was average, nothing to rave about and got the job done. And food was average. I'd be down to come back and try their brunch items, maybe some fish, but I'll go elsewhere for my BBQ. What we got: Burnt Ends - 3* comes smothered in sauce which is never, in my opinion, a good sign because it doesn't let the meat speak for itself. I probably wouldn't get it again. "The Diesel" Three Meat Sampler (see the three meats we got below) - 4* great price for the ability to sample three different meats. We didn't love that the meat came out with an additional sauce poured over it, we would've rather had that separate to apply ourselves . Peppered Beef Brisket - 3* I wanted to like it more than I did. It was a bit chewy and the flavour was only alright. Pulled Pork - 3.5* decent meat but also not exceptional. House Smoked Kielbasa - 3.5* good flavour but a bit dry. My favourite of all the meats though. I do wonder if I liked it the best because it wasn't smothered in their house sauce... Side: Hill County Pinto - 4* I really enjoyed them, don't think I've ever had pinto beans for my baked beans before. Side: Mac & Cheese - 3* nothing special, wouldn't get again. Bread: Buttermilk Biscuits - 3.5* wish it came with butter and jam. read more

My wife and I wanted some good BBQ and tried Bonnie. The quality of the breakfast was much better than the lunch we had. The Mac and Cheese my wife had was gridy and our cornbread was so dry it crumbled as I took a bite. My brisket had a lot of fat on it. The BVQ pork and greens were good read more

Funky quirky BBQ place that used to be an old Esso gas station. Parking is on the street. When walking by, you can see & smell the smoker. We walked in & there is very little seating so we sat at a counter looking outside. We enjoyed the chicken salad, collard greens, potato salad, mac & cheese, & burnt ends app. All were excellent. The burnt ends sauce was Asian-like & a little too sweet for me. The owner was gracious & very nice to us. I also enjoyed some local Chardonnay. Definitely a place to check out! read more

What a laid-back ambience you will find at Bonnie Blue's! The dining area is decorated with antiques and tin signs right out of grandma's attic. There are some large tables that can accommodate a party of six to eight and a bar with stools around the outer wall of the dining room. Although there were only two of us, we were invited to take one of the larger tables for our comfort. We ate lunch on a summer day. It was rather warm in the dining room as I don't believe that there is any air conditioning here. The fried chicken dinner was some of the best around anywhere. I recommend it highly. read more

True Southern hospitality they weren't even open yet and they said sit down. I'll give you a cup of coffee. Incredible waitress, very caring made strong recommendations of what they were good at and have you ever had a crabcake that's a size of a pancake that's what I had on my eggs Benedict this morning. They made their own bread that's so tasty and it was so much food. We couldn't even finish it so we had to take our yummy potatoes home. We look forward to trying our cinnamon roll. It is a big location, but it was filling up quickly this on a Saturday morning. read more

The food was bland The ambience was so so. Service was ok. I was not impressed. This was my second time there. I won't be going back.

My wife and I went to Bonnie Blue on 3/20/26. This.was the first time visiting this restaurant and it will not be the last. It was my birthday and we were in the area do we decided to give it a try for Breakfast.. We were not disappointed as the food was great and homemade down to the bread. The service was also amazing as Ella who was our server had a great personality and made our visit very enjoyable. On our way out after eating we stopped at the front part of the restaurant to tell the owner how special Ella made our first visit to his establishment and we would be back to try lunch soon. If you get a chance please visit this restaurant and ask for Ella as I am sure you will find the place a keeper. read more

We went here on a recommendation. Love this local spot which has smoked meats on site. They have a nice brunch menu. Eggs w/ pulled pork & a biscuit. Regular breakfast too. Both the French toast and pancakes looked amazing. They have family meals to go with 2 or 3 meats plus sides. They have an assortment of baked goods too. Our server Luke was fantastic. Indoor & outdoor seating. The decor is eclectic. The only bad thing is only one bathroom. Limited parking. read more

The breakfast was amazing and there is a very homely atmosphere. Plus, they use ingredients that are better for you and that are locally sourced. The service was a little slow but there were not many waiters as they had just opened. All in all, 4/5 's. read more

We had a party of 6 and all of us felt like our food was not fresh and didn't taste good. It's known for BBQ and that wasn't enjoyable. Cat fish, chicken salad, wings ... we all had different things. The service was sporadic and we had to ask for refills of water. The place was unusual and we love to eat at small restaurants that are rated high. This place was a disappointment and probably will not return. read more

Such a delicious brunch gem in Winchester! I got the french toast with breakfast potatoes and a side of bacon. Classic and delicious. I also tried the chicken and waffles. Not the biggest fan of sausage gravy, so I got that on the side. I wasn't a big fan of the spicy syrup it was served with, but it was superb with regular syrup that came with the french toast. The chicken was my favorite thing out of everything we had. It was ginormous and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. There's both inside and outside seating and it's a charming spot overall. read more

Really wanted breakfast food but arrived around 1pm on a Thursday and breakfast is done before served by 11:30am. They do all day breakfast on weekends. We went into the entrance by the parking lot which (at a quick glance) was kind of like a grungy cafe style. They directed us around to the other side through the deck. There were a couple of tables being used outside and just 2 being used inside- pretty slow which was great for us. We ordered the catfish, Mac n cheese, fried oysters.. my family got the brisket and collard greens which is prepared with pork meat. We enjoyed it all. It even comes with a bread of your choice like a biscuit or cornbread for example. The servers were all kind to us and welcoming. The food was nice and hot and tasted freshly prepared. For the 3 of us, the bill came to $68 with beverages and that extra side of 5 pieces of oysters. We gave a $20 tip. Good experience overall. Would definitely go back. Oh the "come back" sauce is yummy! read more

First time in. Saturday morning outing and wanted to get some brunch. Eclectic place with a really cool casual diner vibe. But the menu... so many awesome offerings. We ordered Steak&Eggs and a Brisket&Eggs Benedict. Both came with the best Breakfast Potatoes - real potato chunked up fried crispy outside and seasoned well. Steak was huge and brisket had the really good smokiness going on. Benedict sauce was mid if I'm being real. Servers were attentive, timely and helpful. The price is up there a little, but seems like a fair value in these times and for that quality of food and preparation. Definitely going back. Probably for a Friday Supper and a visit to the Bakery. read more

I know that everyone on Yelp! loves all the quaint little non-chain restaurants and so do I but this place was just not that great. First of all the dining room is very dirty. The floor is filthy. There's dust on the walls and the kitchen and dishwasher area was gross. The hush puppies were 10/10. The rest of it was just OK. I had the Cuban sandwich, it was on some old roll that looked like they cooked it in a dirty fry pan and it had too much mustard. The fries were hand cut, and all had herbs but it all honestly, they were the blandest french fries I've ever eaten. The service was also just so so. Please don't ever refill my iced tea without giving me actual ice. Not sure if this is a place I'd go back to. read more

We secured reservations for a group of 8 men for breakfast. I had great anticipation for this place based on the good reviews and my son's glowing recommendation. When we arrived we stood at the entrance looking at a perfect empty table that could accommodate our group right in the front room. But NO...a manager type yelled out that our table was reserved in the back room. We were escorted into the back room next to a storage area covered by a curtain. It was not a table, but two tables that were separated in the middle, isolating half of our group. The server was pleasant enough but the service was slow. The breakfast was OK but certainly not as good as you would expect based on the reviews. I have to go against the herd again. I cannot recommend Bonnie Blue. There are much better alternatives in the Winchester/Front Royal areas. read more

Food is spectacular - fantastic barbecue with subtle touches of Asian flair. The sauce had a slight visual resemblance to sweet and sour sauce and one of the appetizers was garnished with sliced scallions and sesame seeds; nothing to offend the traditionalists while adding something for the adventurous. Everything we ordered was superb and I will definitely be stopping by again. read more

You walk in and are immediately welcomed and greeted. The service was great, very attentive. The food was everything I had hoped for based on pictures and reviews. The food exceeded expectations and I wish I could try everything on the menu in one sitting. I got the catfish, chili, and coleslaw. The best catfish I've ever had! From the batter to the amount of fish to the breading, all of it was perfect and cooked perfectly. Other meal was spiced chicken thighs with collard greens and pinto beans. They loved the sauce that came with the chicken and also loved the pinto beans. I wanted to leave there with a gallon of the greens. Took some desserts to go. This is over 2 hours from my house but I fully intend to come back. I feel a girls weekend in Winchester in my future as they enjoy delicious food as much as I do. read more

It was a gloomy rainy day, but there was something inviting about the bright blue building that looks like it was once a house and the smell of BBQ in the air. I walked in, was greeted by friendly staff, and then got seated at the window bar. It was Winchester Restaurant Week, so I ordered off their restaurant week menu. For $17, I got Phil's crazy stuffed potato with brisket, which came with sides of slaw and cornbread, and the local apple cider mimosa. The brisket was tasty. The potato was indeed stuffed, and so I ended up stuffed. I only managed to finish half of it, and the other half became a meal for another day. The mimosa was refreshing, and it was exactly what I needed after a stressful morning of dealing with my rental car. The baked goods looked tempting, but I was way too full for dessert. Bonnie Blue seems like a solid spot to experience some Southern food and hospitality. The space feels like a combination of homely and quirky. The food is good, and the staff is so welcoming. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. I had a very enjoyable lunch. read more

Best shrimp and grits. Rib-sticking, stomach filling, savory taste and smell, flavor beyond incredible. Pair that with attentive friendly service and the welcoming atmosphere of the car lot it used to be. Great posters on the wall and good wake-up music add to being the best breakfast place around. read more

Great food and service. Their bbq is good. Their chicken and waffles are my favorite.

The eggs Benedict and the biscuits and gravy are phenomenal. The side potatoes are fried to perfection. Great setting and service too!

Great food at reasonable prices in ticky-tacky setting that is just perfect. Unfortunately, they're moving location. Hoping they can make the new place as ticky-tacky as the old! read more

Bonnie Blue is a local favorite and I was long overdue in checking it out. The vibe is kind of mechanic shop meets restaurant in a haphazard rusty kind of way. Very casual. Service was great , menu heavy on southern favorites like shrimp and grits and chicken and waffles. I chose the pimento cheeseburger. The burger tasted like a commercial patty, just meh. Pimento cheese kind of sparse and tasted just like cheddar. French fries were delicious and hand cut and stole the show. My boyfriend got the chicken and waffles. He enjoyed it but said not the best he's had. I finished off the meal with coffee and passed on dessert. Overall, I would say it was average to good, but by like many I don't get the hype. read more

Service was great, food and drink great. We ordered off the Friday night menu and shared... Tuna for my wife, son got the steak and I got the pork. All perfectly cooked and the sides were great too. We will be back. read more

I've been to a lot of restaurants in Winchester, however I've never been to any like this one. The food is definitely overpriced and not the best for the quality or price. I really can't believe the health department hasn't shut it down yet. Not to mention the fire marshals in Winchester. What a dump !!!!! Never again. read more

I stopped into Bonnie Blue for a pre concert meal... having driven by it many times. I had the shrimp and grits and I will say it was very delicious ( not the best I've ever had but very good). It had 6 shrimp and lots of bacon tomatoes and onions in a tasty broth and very good grits with a corm muffin to sop up the gravy. I would have dined on the outside patio but it was very warm so I sat inside at the small dining area. The only complaint I had was I got a Natty Bo from the cooler and it was not cold at all. I would definitely return for a S&G fix! read more

I've been to Bonnie Blue twice and it was exceptional both times. I went on a solo reading brunch (eat and read!) and had the shrimp and grits and a Bloody Mary. Meal was amazing - plenty of food all cooked and seasoned so well. Bloody Mary was fine. Wouldn't order again, as it was watery and not very flavorful. My server was Gary and he was friendly and attentive. I also went with a friend last month and had their eggs Benedict and they were phenomenal! read more

This was our first visit to Bonnie Blue. There is limited parking and seating is limited. We went in for a late breakfast. Our server was not the greatest. She was unattentive and acted like it was a bother to refill my coffee. I ordered the Cuban breakfast, but was served the lunch sandwich. They did bring me the correct sandwich quickly. I did not realize the egg was going to be on top of the sandwich and ordered it sunny side up. No problem, I took it off and ate it separately. The sandwich tasted great, but the potatoes were over-cooked. The chairs are old and not too comfortable. If the service had been better, I would have rated a 4. read more

Everyone I'm here a make sure I go to Bonnie Blues! The idea of combining breakfast and BBQ is amazing and they do it the beast! This time, we were asked to move tables because a larger party of 8 was coming, and because of the 'inconvenience" they complimented us with 1 of each of their homemade pastries! This was the absolute nicest thing they could do, but they honestly didn't have to do anything because we didn't have our food at this point yet! I will admit, I was not disappointed with this because I ate almost every bite of every pastry and thoroughly enjoyed them! My favorites were the muffins and the carrot cake! I can't wait for my next chance to eat here! read more

Visited on a weekday just before lunchtime, getting there around 10:30AM. They were serving lunch at that time, so I ordered some BBQ. After reading other reviews online about their brisket and that it was simply seasoned with salt & pepper, I just had to try this! Service was great and the guy at the cashier taking my order was very helpful and friendly. I pretty much went with his suggestions... He suggested not only the brisket, but also their chicken. He described the chicken as seasoned and then smoked and the flavor being great, full, and the chicken being moist and this is exactly what I experienced! It was really good, definitely not dry! The brisket was really good too, very moist and the bark on it was spot on, as it was simply salt & pepper, which is how a really good piece of meat should be seasoned. For sides, I opted for their cucumber salad - this was excellent! Not too vinegary, yet loaded with flavor from the onions. The other side was potato salad and it was really good! Nicely seasoned and the potatoes were tender, not too soft and not hard either. Even their cornbread was really good. The dining room is really small, with seating for about 10 total people. They also have a larger outdoor seating area. They offer a huge selection of baked goods too, I was too full to try any though. Definitely enjoyed this visit and look forward to returning! read more
