What really sets this place apart are the PEOPLE! Some of the most amazing service and workers; they were all so insanely sweet and welcoming! I will definitely have to go back! I loved the wings so much and they gave me a big cup of ranch! Amazing. read more

Korner Restaurant - Wing dings - Burgers Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

Bangin' burger and onion rings. The double is too much unless thats what you're looking for. Reminds me of good country places back home in the SW of the state. Trying breakfast tomorrow read more

Placing a catering order was very easy, I called the main restaurant and they gave me Philips cell number. I left him a message and he called me right back. He was easy to deal with, professional, straightforward, and responsive. Philip delivered the delicious food on time for a fair price. My guests raved and all I had to do was pay the bill. Recommend very much, thank you, Philip. read more

Okay okay I tried one of their sandwiches and I've been missing out. Don't sleep on their club sandwiches! read more

Korner Restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

A bit of Americana, near the UVA Hospital. Friendly service, and local color. My wife and I stopped in for breakfast after a Dr. appointment. Can't speak to the full menu, but can recommend eggs & country ham, sausage gravy & biscuit. Economically priced and good service. Something different from the hospital cafeteria. read more

Absolutely disgusting. Burger was very watery and gross. No seasoning, flavor, or char whatsoever. Will never return.

Great food! Great service! Cook everything on a grill! Definitely will be going back!

Hands down one of the best burgers I've ever had. It's an amazing blend of the burger you would have as a kid on a summer day, mixed with something of a five guys tenderness in the meat and melted cheese. It's one of those burgers that make you feel like you're eating a burger again for the first time. The service is wonderful too, a great family feel and a very attentive staff. Seems like a great community place that has a lot of character, I wish I lived closer to go more!!! read more

Great hole in the wall restaurant with fantastic burgers and fries we also got great fast service. I would highly recommend

I'm a regular. Breakfast is very good. Never had any major issues - had one issue with slow service once -- but other than that always been nice experience. Food quality and quantity good - especially for price - highly recommend this nice little diner read more

Today is bitter sweet, as I come through for breakfast on my last day in town for a bit. I have never had a better cheeseburger, but what even more impressive is the price point. The service is amazing as always, we were all on first name basis and they always made sure my order was correct. For a diner, it's clean and bustling. I wish I could give this more stars. But to prove my point more, I ordered "to go" and stayed for the company. read more

Korner Restaurant - Burger, coffee, 8:30am - Burgers Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

What a wonderful find! This hole-in-the--wall restaurant gives new meaning to fast service. It is a welcoming diner that clearly makes regulars feel like family. The food is mostly home-made, and the service is excellent. It is the type of restaurant that makes one long for the past where locals were well-known and strangers were welcomed with open arms. I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

There are quite a few staples in Charlottesville worth a visit or 2...or 3 and the Korner is definitely 1 of them. I have been twice and had consistently great service and the food is pretty good. Went here with the guys for lunch. Pro tip, get in the door at 11am if you're going for lunch. Even though the Korner has quite a few tables and seats at the kitchen area the place fills up quickly. I had the burger and was thoroughly satisfied. Might be the best non chain burger that I have experienced in Charlottesville since I've been out here. read more

I lived in C'Ville from 2002-2011 and The Korner was by far my favorite diner not only there, but anywhere. The breakfast and lunch...amazing. The staff, amazing. Best burger in Charlottesville (sorry, Riverside). I so miss the food and the staff and not necessarily in that order. read more

Great service and great staff. Tammy was our great server and the other staff was attentive as well. Solid traditional breakfast food. Plan to go back soon. Four of us in our party, two had omelets, one biscuit and gravy, one two eggs with fried bologna and potatoes. Everyone loved their meals. Portions were big and didn't need lunch! read more

This place is literally the best restaurant in Charlottesville. From the warm welcomes when you open the door, to the friendly service, and delicious food I don't know why anyone would want to go anywhere else. This place treats everyone like family, whether you're a new customer or old. I wish everyone has the pleasure of meeting Mr.Templeton and his wife. Wonderful and caring people!!! read more

Like stepping back to the 1980's. Simple good food delivered with a smile. Price is more like the 1980's too!

Good food I wish they were opened later than 4pm during the week but I enjoy it when I get a chance too... great prices

Good eating and good atmosphere I had double bacon egg cheeseburger with tomato lettuce my wife got toasted cheese and BLT and I also had pork sandwich all was good and was great price We also decided to get macaroni salad it reminds me of my mother-in-law good macaroni salad Try the place out you will not be disappointed read more

Great food! Fast and cheap. Just wanted to note since I saw some reviews stating that they're cash only -- that's not true anymore, they do take cards. I love this place because it's not crawling with undergrads so you don't have to wait half an hour even for breakfast on a Saturday or Sunday morning! Note that breakfast ends at 11 AM. read more

Great breakfast spot, the sandwiches on white toast, omg!! I look forward to trying more of the menu, and the have specials.

We had our brunch wedding catered by The Korner. They were always prompt in communicating, the food arrived and was cleaned up on schedule, everyone raved about it, and it was the best deal in town. Cannot recommend highly enough! read more

I walked here from the train station, after a long journey from Chicago. This place has amazing food and everyone so friendly. If you are a local or someone just passing through give this place a try you won't be disappointed. read more

This is a great place to get a burger. The staff is out of this world. The place is simply the best.

Good food, fast service, nice people. You don't leave hungry or feeling ripped off. Usually see the same faces as it is frequented by "regulars" and you'll hear "slices of life" assuring you that The Korner has roots in the Cville community. I hope it's here for a long time to come. They don't take cards so bring cash and your appetite! read more

Korner Restaurant - Western omelet with home rise and toast! Yum! - Burgers Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

I can't live in Charlottesville and not go here, especially since it's so close to where I live. The Korner is a throwback place to eat. I bet most of the clientele have been going for years, and this shapes the whole place. The Korner Restaurant does NOT accept debit or credit, and the nearest ATM is the sketchy market down the street next to the auto body shop, so be prepared. This is the sort of place that could be good for a hangover since the food is really salty. Prices are damn cheap. Unlike a lot of other places, the Korner is not on board with the local ingredients and fresh bit. I saw one woman mixing a batch of something and pour most of it from a prepackaged bag. On a Saturday our service was ok. Our waitress seemed annoyed I insisted on sitting where I did, as she kept putting anything we asked for in the spot in front of me, instead of the middle of the table. Don't put a chair in a spot if you, as a waitress, feel it hinders your ability to serve items or hand condiments out. I also found it odd she asked if I wanted to order even though my friends had to walk to the ATM so they could pay for their soon-to-be meal. The flies were super annoying, and there were several of them. Other than that, the Korner is what it is, a diner for old guys to sip coffee in and heckle the women who have been serving them for several years. read more

Great food! Best burgers and fries. My son loves the hamburger steak. Nice friendly people!

Awesome food, awesome prices, and awesome people! I love eating here. The service and food is always good! It only cost $28 for three people. It is a local favorite! read more

Refused breakfast after 11am on a Saturday even though it's on their menu with no timeline mentioned. Very rude waitresses the last 3x we were in. No greeting, no smile and let you sit for several minutes before acknowledging you. We were regulars for years. We won't be back. read more

Very good burger made the old fashion way, by forming a patty by hand!!

Been here twice, had the most delicious hamburger steak and gravy ever. I look forward to trips to Charlottesville now just so I can stop here for lunch. read more

Where do I begin? Well, first of all, why the hell would you put a BBQ Pit Cooker outside when the BBQ is preprocessed and in a bag. Canned and frozen EVERYTHING. You know, I can deal with all of these things, but to top it off the cook doesn't give two hoots about how the food is cooked. EVERYTHING either comes under cooked or over cooked. Our server stated that you must ask for "Light" home fries if you don't want them burned. Terrible terrible cooking and food selection. BUT the toast was AMAZING! read more

Awesome egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches! They are FAST, my to-go order was ready in like 3 minutes. The only reason they aren't getting 5 stars is because I'd prefer normal fries to the crinkly ones and they are CASH ONLY! Overall, awesome and cheap with friendly staff! Really solid breakfast/lunch spot! read more

The Korner with a K!! This place serves great breakfast sammies and fast service. Their double bacon cheeburger ain't bad either. Your comfy Charlottesville diner that serves juicy food and some of the best sweet tea. The service is always great and welcome to everyone. 4 stars! read more

Great local fare!!! Food comes out fast and hot. Very friendly staff; they make you feel right at home. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great home cooked meal. Thanks to all the staff at the Korner Restaurant for your Southern Hospitality!! Your new fans from Detroit Michigan. read more

Best breakfast in town for the price!! Friendly wait staff and talented cooks. I've had many meals here and have never been disappointed.

Straight up diner... too cheap to be acclaimed, and too dull to be hip. If you went to McDonalds in the 1940s, this'd be it. The Korner keeps odd hours (I think they close at 7 or 8?), and serves what seem to be exclusively regulars who go behind the counter to fill their own drinks. This won't be the best meal you've ever had but, assuming you stay away from the 20pc shrimp, it will be a memorable one. Cash only. read more

Yum, yum, yum. It's a greasy spoon, so don't go lookin' for health food. Hand pressed patties made to order (ask for season salt, then watch your sodium for the next three days...it's worth it!) Not too keen on crinkle cut fries, but if you get 'em...get more season salt! read more
