The Girl & The Raven has such a cool story behind it, and learning about the meaning of the raven in Native American folklore made the experience feel even more special. Then the food arrived... and suddenly conversation stopped because everyone was too busy saying, "You have to try this!" We ordered the breakfast bowl with sweet potatoes, arugula, and the famous hippy sauce, a gooey cinnamon bun, and the homemade daily biscuit sandwiches. Every single bite was phenomenal. The hippy sauce deserves its own fan club, the biscuit was flaky perfection, and the cinnamon bun disappeared so fast it should probably qualify as magic. Every dish was cooked to absolute perfection. You can tell it's crafted by Michelin trained chefs who know exactly what they're doing. Sarah Grace took amazing care of us. She was friendly, attentive, and somehow managed to make us feel like regulars even though we were just passing through. The restaurant itself is adorable, and the artwork covering the walls is stunning. We seriously considered playing a game of "How much luggage can we leave behind to make room for a painting?" If we hadn't packed the car for vacation, one of those paintings would have been riding shotgun all the way home. Come hungry, stay curious about the story, and don't be surprised if you leave wishing your vehicle had just a little more cargo space.

I like soft serve, my wife wanted hand scooped, so the nice girl at the drive-through made both for us! You crazy kids probably don't even know what a malted is, but I digress... Not surprisingly, I preferred the thick creaminess of the one made with soft serve. And my wife preferred the one made from hand scooped ice cream, which was a bit milkier in texture, but oh so refreshing. They added just the right amount of malted milk and both shakes were delicious. This is a classic ice cream shop. Excellent outdoor seating, very cute inside. And many local young folk working hard. Afterwards, I went home and took a contented nap.

The service was wonderful, and the presentation was absolutely beautiful. We started with a delicious chilled lavender iced tea that was perfectly balanced not too sweet or overly floral and the Blue Eyes tea, which reminded us of a warm caramel apple. Both were excellent. Our tea service began with a fresh mixed greens salad topped with a strawberry and a lovely house dressing. Then came the tiered tower filled with an assortment of savory bites and sweet treats. My daughter was especially excited to discover her new favorite food: cucumber sandwiches! We finished with a light, creamy blackberry mousse style dessert that was the perfect ending. One thing we'll definitely do differently next time is allow more time and arrive hungrier. We didn't realize afternoon tea included so much food, so we found ourselves rushing a bit to make it to our show. The history of the building made the experience even more memorable. Learning that it's the oldest house and the third-oldest building in Abingdon was fascinating. Over the years it has served many purposes, including being home to a family with ten children and functioning as a Civil War hospital. We especially enjoyed learning that it was one of the few buildings spared from being burned because it cared for wounded soldiers from both sides. If you're visiting Abingdon, this is a charming experience that's well worth adding to your itinerary.

The owner, Miss Carrie, was very sweet and we ended up buying tea as gifts, plus ordered some scones and a mini peach pie in addition to a lavender sweet tea. The sweet tea was very good. The scone I had lacked a little flavor and the pie crust was good, but the peaches might not have been fully in season to make it as good as I recall peach pie to be. I do believe the fact I waited a day to eat them (was traveling) could have affected the flavors. I think overall the offerings were quite good and would recommend folx give her offerings a try.

I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for an experience of farmland, Orchards, animals and delicious drinks to stop by the farm or reach out on Harvest Host. Thanks for being such wonderful hosts.

We were in the area to check out an eatery, and, unfortunately, just missed it being open by a few minutes. We saw this DQ Grill & Chill, and decided to check it out. We tried their Cheeseburger (beef patty with melted cheese, pickles, ketchup, and mustard), Pretzel Sticks with Zesty Queso, and Cheese Curds. The cheeseburger was not tasty, as the patty was really tough, and the bun tasted a little dry. The pretzels were also hard, and I usually am a fan of these pretzels because they're usually soft and butter, perfectly salted, and the zesty queso is yummy. The cheese curds was the only thing that was edible, but most was of them were small fried breading bits. The place both has a dine-in option and drive-thru. I thought that due to the place looking quite busy, the food would be fresh and right off the grill. Unfortunately, it wasn't.
