Staff was nice and food was good. But not worth over 20 dollars, especially if the refills arn't free

Cutest little hole in the wall. Good food at low prices, excellent service, and the donuts did not disappoint

I always get the sunrise omelette with jalapeños added, and it has the perfect amount of cheese and spice.

Sat at the bar and was greeted by the 2 people on opposites sides of my seat with a "Hello"…read more Service was great. Coffee stayed full. This is a locals place for breakfast. Everyone knew everyone and they were welcoming. Young lady cooking kept the griddle full Ordered coffee and a Big 3 egg omelet with hash browns. The omelet has bacon, sausage, tomato, onions and peppers. It was a hearty breakfast and the portion size was just enough to join the clean plate club. One thing to know is bring cash. No cards accepted. They didn't give me a hard time. They pointed me to the "service station" a block up the road to the nearest ATM and they save my coffee and breakfast for when I returned. All my travels this throwback diner will be remembered when I am next in Albemarle.. Thanks!

After seeing the reviews for this restaurant, I was looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately, it…read moredidn't live up to the praise. The menu offers the classic breakfast staples, but the food itself lacked flavor and was fairly ordinary. Nothing was poorly cooked, but there wasn't anything that stood out or made me want to come back. The service was also just okay--it wasn't particularly attentive. One of the biggest frustrations was discovering that the restaurant is cash only. There was no obvious notice when you entered, and didn't realize it until it was time to pay, when I noticed a small sign near the cash register. In today's world, where most restaurants accept cards or mobile payments, it would be helpful if this policy were posted more prominently at the entrance or mentioned before ordering. Overall, I can understand why it's a familiar spot for many locals, but based on my experience, it didn't offer anything that set it apart from an average breakfast diner. I left feeling disappointed, especially considering all of the recommendations.

Visited Goody Shop Cafe for an early lunch on a Wednesday. When I stopped in, post COVID, I don't…read morebelieve that dining in was an option so, obviously, I got my order to go. The inside feels like (or is?) part counter restaurant and part antiques store. I knew I had come for a hot dog and the folks behind the counter were patient while I decided on a side item, ultimately settling on onion rings. I hung out until they handed me a paper bag with my order. I had parked right out front so I didn't have far to go to enjoy my lunch. Everything (especially the onion rings) was really hot. The footlong was really good. The dog itself might have been fried and it was great to see pretty full coverage across the full dog. Onion rings were pretty greasy, as evidenced by the dark spot soaking through the paper bag. They were tasty though. I did go back in to ask for an extra couple ketchup packets. If I'm in the area, I'd return to Goody Shop cafe and try some of their other offerings.

Will not be back. called in an order of 3 hamburger patties with cheese and bacon, no bun, no…read morelettuce, tomato, etc. Patties only. The person on the other end of the phone said no problem. I asked how much the order would be. She said $20 something. To which I reiterated that I was only ordering the patties. She replied that she had to charge me for 3 burgers. To which I replied that I would have to cancel the order as I cannot afford to spend over $20 on lunch when I can go to Wendys and get 3 patties for 7or 8 dollars. Then she said that I should just go to Wendys and get those patties and disconnected the call. I was expecting to spend more than what it would cost me at Wendys but not over 2x as much. Then the rudeness to top it off. Disappointing... I had heard such good things about their food...
