If you live in Botetourt and haven't tried Lentini's yet, you're seriously missing out. This is…read morehands down one of the best local pizza spots in the area. The pizza is consistently on point. The crust has that perfect balance -- crispy on the outside, soft and slightly chewy inside. It holds the toppings without getting soggy, which already puts it above a lot of places. The sauce has real flavor (slightly sweet, slightly tangy) and doesn't taste overly processed. The cheese melts perfectly and gives you that classic stretch when you pull a slice away. The garlic knots are a must. Soft, buttery, and seasoned just right -- they're honestly addictive. The subs are stacked and filling, and the portions overall are very fair for the price. What really makes this place stand out is the atmosphere. It feels like a true local spot -- families, teams after games, regulars who clearly come in all the time. The staff is friendly and efficient, and even when they're busy, the food comes out hot and consistent. It's hard to find a small-town pizza place that nails both quality and consistency, but Lentini's does. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, you can count on it being good every time. Definitely one of Botetourt's go-to spots.

A four cheese pizza is a common creation, but of course there are more than four cheeses so every chef picks differently. The ones here gave a complex flavor impression both Italian and American, and getting jalapenos on top completed the taste with some needed bite. Had I wanted anything other than bread and cheese I didn't like their salad options, but they did what they're trying to do effectively.

For the people out there that like places such as Cold Stone Creamery, Bruster's is even better in my opinion. The staff is usually friendly and helpful in helping customers make a decision. They will let you sample any flavor if you want to try one. As for the ice cream, it is smooth, rich, and delicious and comes in a variety of unique flavors. They have all the staples including chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, but the rotating-unique flavors are where the real fun is. I am a fan of the chocolate mudslide and the cappuccino and my wife likes anything loaded with chocolate and peanut butter. Most of the time, I order a milkshake, but sometimes there is nothing like the hot and cold combination of cinnamon-vanilla ice cream on an apple dumpling. It is important to note that Bruster's is an outdoor counter-service ice cream shop and the lines can get long during peak season, but the wait is worth it. There is some limited seating to the side of the building featuring red benches and umbrellaed tables. All of these features make this place an ideal summertime stop. The next time you are looking for quality ice cream, be sure to give Bruster's a try.

Ever since drinking a hot, steaming cup of Kira, Do Good, or Kivu every other kind of coffee tastes like wet dirt!

The baristas are some top-of-the-line folks who love to banter and trade jibes with whoever is up for the challenge! Penny, the fine owner of this establishment, is one of the finest people in all the land. She knows what her customers want and never fails to deliver. What else is there to say? If you haven't tried your luck at some LOTH coffee, what are you even doing? Ps. I wouldn't recommend wearing socks because they will for sure be blown off immediately upon entering!

There's the polite request that if you're dining, you should pay them back for this courtesy by buying a meal. Sadly, we missed out on dining hours but we will absolutely get them on the next one.
