Chicken & Waffle
Cinnamon V.

We went Food Craft in Newport News for breakfast and really enjoyed it! The atmosphere is clean, relaxed, and welcoming. It's a nice place to sit down and enjoy a good meal. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are friendly, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. I had the ribeye and eggs, which were cooked perfectly for me. It's a thin ribeye so medium to medium rare is perfect to me. The chicken and waffles were good too. The waffle was light and delicious, and the chicken wings were big and crispy (just could use a little more seasoning). Overall, it's a solid chicken and waffle. The wait time is usually around 20-25 minutes, but it's worth it once your food hits the table. The food does not take long after seated which is always a plus.

Steak and Eggs
Chelsea D.

The wait was expected and absolutely worth it. Our party of six received excellent service throughout the visit. The atmosphere is casual, lively, and very family-friendly. The food was exceptional-- I ordered the chicken and waffles, which were perfectly prepared and generously portioned. The chicken was flavorful and crisp, and the biscuits were so delicious that we ordered an extra batch to take home. Highly recommend!

Pancake platter
Nisha L.

The food was good and came out quick and hot. I had the pancake platter with turkey sausage and scrambled eggs and a mimosa. Paid $20, couldn't beat that. Service was good and the ambiance was welcoming and busy. Lemonade Mimosa was good

Food Craft has been on my list for awhile and I'm glad I finally tried it out. Met up with a friend who suggested we get there early. Came in around 830 and was seated quickly but this place filled up fast! It's a traditional diner with simple good food. Service was fast and friendly. Loved the French toast with the crispy edges!

They were not busy when I visited...

I finally had an opportunity to visit Food Craft. On the weekends a line forms on the sidewalk, and due to working during the week so I usually do not have an opportunity to stop in. And to be honest, I'm not sure what the excitement was all about. Interior is fairly basic, no frills, with one wall having signage with sayings and photos of customers. Seating was ample and the staff did seat me quickly. I had a veggie omelette, potatoes, biscuit and coffee. The food came very quickly, and while the omelette and biscuit were good and warm, the potatoes were cold. I noticed the omelette sat over some of the potatoes which warmed some of them up. I thought about saying something, but I kind of let it go...and should not have. The person who waited on me had almost no inflection, almost impersonal to somewhat mechanical in delivery which I found to be surprising. As soon as I done eating the plate got wisked off the table (I almost said "you must be short of plates..."), and while told "No rush", the check was also delivered with speed. It was not like they needed the table (see photo). To be honest I felt like I was getting the bums rush. Overall...the food was average to good albeit cold potato's, and while at a reasonable price, with the impersonal service and the perception of being pushed, doubt I would ever visit again. I hate ending 2025 with such a negative review, especially about locally owned businesses which I prefer to support. I also want you to know I have edited and reviewed my comments more than once to see if was being too harsh...I concluded I wasn't. Sorry.

3rd time was just as bad, corn beef still burned and hard as a rock.

We normally come to this restaurant every Sunday upon opening. Everything was great until New Year's Day 2026. We ordered as normal and our food came out burnt. We sent it back several times and it looked like burnt eggs were mixed with fresh eggs. A cook or someone from kitchen came out and looked at us and returned to kitchen . We ended up leaving paying for our tea some have burnet food. Took pictures for proof. Will probably never go back. Very up setting because food was always perfect before this. I wish I could give 5 stars because eggs looked pretty good. Just no meat to go with it so we left starving. Had to hit 1star to post this.

Foodcraft was on my radar to try for a while. They have a fried green tomato burger and also a fried green tomato salad so I knew I had to try one of them. I tried the salad this time. Next time I'll try the burger! Service is friendly and very quick. If you're in a hurry, you'll be fine. If you want to relax and chat, you'll be fine

Corned beef hash with homestyle fries two eggs over medium and wheat toast

This place is always great. They usually have a line out the door from opening until about 12. We have been here more than 6 times in the last year and maybe more and it's consistently good with great service. If I had to be not picky the only negative isn't really negative if you understand. Then they are busy with a line out the door, when it is obvious you're finished and have paid they politely ask if you're done. It makes sense because they need the table for more customers. We have only been asked once and it was very polite. Again, I highly recommend this place for breakfast or lunch. Great food, great service, fair prices, and good ambience.

Grilled Chicken BLT
Madalynne B.

Went here for the first time recently and enjoyed myself thoroughly! Our service was prompt, kind, and efficient. The inside was busy so we decided to sit outside instead of indoors. Music was good and enjoyable as well during brunch time! I ordered the (2) Blueberry Pancake Plate w/ over easy eggs & sausage & a side dish of Hash brown casserole. My boyfriend got a grilled chicken BLT with fries. Both were delicious! Excellent portions, especially for the price. We will definitely be returning!

10/10 I highly recommend. Myself, my husbae and another couple dined here a few Sunday's ago for brunch. Our guy friend only eats turkey so I had to put on my handy dandy Yelp gloves to search for a place with great reviews and had turkey options on the menu. After an extensive search, I came up with this place. We arrived close to 1pm I believe, and there was a wait to be seated. We waited about 25 minutes, but it was worth the wait!! The staff was super friendly and our food came out in like 5 minutes or less it seems. Our server, Evette, was comical and easy on the eyes. She made some suggestions of what was good and items she recommended since this was our first time visiting. I ordered the ribeye with eggs and check out the pics to see what the other diners ordered. It seems like I remember them ordering pancakes and they said they were really good. Nevertheless, we ate it all!! I had about 3 ounces of steak left that I took home and ate it the next morning, so good! My husbae was a little disappointed because they did not have his Crown Royal, so he could not have a libation with his meal, bummer! Because I sholl had a mimosa and it was tasty. Parking was plentiful as this place is located in a shopping center. This was a 40+ minute drive for us, but well worth the hike. We will definitely visit sometime in the near future to check out other menu choices. Take care, have fun and enjoy life :)

This is such a cool place tucked away in a shopping plaza in Yorktown. The food is excellent! I had the grilled salmon salad, a side of turkey sausage, and of course a blueberry pancake. Everything was delicious!! The fluffiness of the pancake was amazing. The service was decent. I also had a poinsettia (i.e., a cranberry mimosa). They have a bar area, and a good amount of tables. They can also accommodate groups. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner items - but only during breakfast and lunch hours. I can't go back to try something else.

Iced coffee (no refills)
Yoonie L.

I've heard so much about Food Craft, so when I knew I was going to be in the area, I decided to meet up with some friends for a breakfast date. - Parking - It's located inside the Village Square center in Yorktown. Parking is plentiful. - TLC - The restaurant was pretty full for a Friday morning, but we were seated right away. We got an awesome doll of a waitress! Super chill, personable, laughed at our silly jokes (that always scores bonus points with us LOL) and she put up with my friends and I haha. More bonus points. - Sips + Noms - My friends and I like to eat family style so we can get a little bit of everything and get to taste it all. Iced coffee - looked like chocolate milk. I think this is one of those premade flavored type of iced coffees you get at the grocery store in the carton boxes. I was fine with it. Scotch Eggs - This was the first time I had scotch eggs and I thought these were tasty. Not overdone. The yolk was still yellow and not green, which is a sign of over doneness. Definitely a great plate to share, but I don't think I would eat a whole plate of it on my own, unless I treated it like a meal. Fried Green Tomatoes - These were great! Tender green tomatoes and I loved the crust around it. Served with some creamy white sauce. Ranch? Chicken & Waffles - I heard from my friend that they had some great chicken at Food Craft, so it was a no brainer in ordering something with chicken. Getting it with waffles made them even better. Country Fried Steak - I was actually pretty impressed by the steak in this dish. I thought it was just going to be thin steak egg washed, battered and fried. They went a step further and pounded it, tenderized it, to the point that it almost looked like a hamburger steak, but thinner. I really enjoyed it, the mashed potatoes could have used a bit more salt or even more of the sausage gravy. Cinnabun pancake - one of my fave parts of the breakfast! It's fluffy, cinnamony and just delicious. My friend and I fought over every piece and cleared that plate. We should have ordered more of the pancakes and cut out one of the other plates! Blueberry pancake - one of my friends ate this one. I'm sure it was about the same fluffiness as the Cinnabun ones. I didn't hear any complaints. Biscuit - one of my friends ordered this last minute and I got to taste a piece, and it was great with the whipped butter from my waffles and some strawberry jam. I would definitely go back and try other things on their menu. They had other things like burgers, sandwiches and house specials that can be served all day, I believe. Stay safe, Friends!

Did they have a restaurant in Virginia Beach at one time?

Is it welcomed to relax there and do some paperwork on computer?

I wouldn't recommend it. It's a very busy restaurant that often has a long wait, it isn't a sit there and work place.

Fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared!!!!!…read more Farmer's Table is a standout spot for anyone who appreciates fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every dish I tried felt carefully prepared, with flavors that were balanced and satisfying. The salads were crisp and vibrant, and the entrees were hearty without being heavy.

I rank my decisions to eat somewhere again as: 1 star - if someone else buys it I won't eat it, I would rather go hungry. 2 star - if I'm hungry, no other options are open and someone buys it - I would consider eating it 3 star - I'm ok with eating it as long as someone else pays 4 star - I will eat again and pay for it and be a semi-regular customer 5 star - I will travel for good food and pay good money and be back on a regular basis and maybe even pay for yours just so we can go

Stopped by last evening and as usual things were out of sync. No server at the front, cash register…read morenot working only kiosk. Cooks taking food orders, security taking out trash. Waited over an hour for wings and potato skins but you gotta give it to them everyone pitches in. Bouncer checked on my order 3 times and bagged it up for me. One of the few places that has crispy hot wings and not all wet. Potato skins sat too long and got mushy but tasted okay. To my shock I ordered a dry Vodka martini and it was perfect which never happens on the Peninsula. They gave me a lemon twist for the glass rind nice big thick olives on fancy toothpicks and a very nice martini glass not just any Ole glass and it tasted like a martini and not spiked water.

I ordered the crabcake sandwich with onion rings and hubby ordered the brisket hash with eggs. My sandwich was delicious. The only things that kind of threw me off was that it was fried instead of broiled. To be honest, I wouldn't have ordered this only because I do not eat fried food. It was still very good. Hubby really enjoyed his brisket hash and eggs. The food was plated very pretty also. This was a cute diner, and I can't wait to come back and try their brunch/breakfast when I'm in town next time.

I didn't even eat it right away, but when I reheated it later, everything was still tender and flavorful. Before that, I let my mother taste it and she's very picky and doesn't like much at all. She loved it. My sister loved it too. Both of them are already planning to go back and get it themselves. The people here are incredibly nice, friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable.
