    The Sasquatch.
    Cecilia J.

    No wifi :( Came here for a remote work day and was sad to learn that there was no wifi. Aside from that, the menu and food is decent. I tried the Sasquatch sandwich which was alright, but I would have preferred any other cheese than American. Coffee selection is limited to one type of drip coffee. On a different note, Legendary Eats is female owned and has a very nice interior. I love the bright yet cozy vibe along with the outdoor seating options.

    Stopped in for lunch before heading West, and it was awesome! I had the Nessie and my husband had the Leroy Jenkins and they were both very good!! Service was relatively fast given how busy they were, and both sandwiches were made fresh. All employees were wearing masks. Would recommend if you are in the area.

    F'en yummy!

    Impressed by this small town college breakfast nook. Afraid that the restaurant would be vanquished by throngs of VMI parents visiting their Rats, I was pleased to discover the full menu was still available. The breakfast sammichs are huge, Sasquatch size, even. Great coffee too. Check it.

    Great sandwiches! Filling and delicious. Quaint atmosphere and great customer service. Staff was very attentive.

    Awesomeness. Who would have thought I would find a bagel place with Taylor ham in Lexington Virginia that's just as good as back home in New York and New Jersey.

    This is huge!  Definitely enough to share or for 2 meals.

    Have enjoyed the sandwiches each time I've been there. Easy, simple, friendly, tasty.

    Fantastic food! Food portion to price ratio is on point. My only complaint is they can never make enough everything bagels.

I was hungry and not in the mood to move my vehicle from the hotel parking lot as street parking in Lexington can be a challenge. I arrived at about 9AM and the only other customers were 2 college age girls who never exchanged a word with the other since they were on their phones. I ordered a Hillel and a large coffee. The only available creamer was pumpkin spice which I'd never had in my life. What is a Hillel you ask? It was salmon, caper, onion, and cream cheese in a bagel for about 10 bucks, however either it was tasty or I was starving and would have enjoyed a spam sandwich. The college aged staff were reasonably friendly, accommodating, and my order was ready in a jiffy. The cafe is located on the campus of Washington & Lee University whose current president has a left-leaning agenda for its students. Not a bad deal for a quick meal if you're hungry. The portions aren't huge, but probably more in line with quantities more conducive to health, and prices are somewhat high. PS I don't like pumpkin -spiced coffee

    We were trying to go to the Pink Cadillac restaurant but they were closed due to the July 4th…read moreholiday so we just drove straight and this was the next restaurant that was open. Had a few cars out front so we thought that was a good sign. We sat ourselves. I got the special of the day and my husband got turkey sandwich. Ordering was interesting the server was abrupt. I laughed after she walked off because she was so sassy to my husband. He was asking her what came on the sandwich and she just kept repeating you tell me. This restaurant needs to be cleaned. Everything from the front door to the restrooms. The carpet is not cleanable. They need to replace the foot all together. We had met 10 bikers at the restaurant that was closed and a couple of them were sitting at a table right next to ours. They were not impressed with anything at this restaurant either. In fact when the one biker got his food he turned to me and said "does this look like a hamburger to you?" I will not be recommending this restaurant but I will have to say. Our server was really determined to keep our drinks filled. She literally took it from my hand without asking and filled it. I just laughed a little awkwardly. She grabbed one of the biker guys glass. He said HEY really loud. She was already halfway across the room and she responded "I will be right back" My special was not great but edible and my husband said his sandwich was ok and we were super happy our entire meals with endless drinks was 11 dollars total. I have to say their prices are great. If they made a few improvements they would be better

    Lexington Restaurant says it was established in the 70s. It looks like this was also the last time…read moreit was cleaned. I don't mind scuffed up tables and cracked vinyl chairs, but I draw the line at actual dirt smudges on the wall. I wish I could tell you that the food makes up for the crappy decor, but we waited for 45 minutes for food that never came. Even though I ordered pie from a case (definitely not home made) the only thing we ordered that came was the chocolate milk. Two stars since the waitress was understanding when we left and didn't charge us for the milk. Avoid.

    A soup and sandwich joint with lots of baked goods -- that's Blue Sky…read more It was a cold and drizzly day when I visited, and a bowl of butternut squash soup was the perfect thing. I also got The Yardbird sandwich after the server recommended it. It's basically just chicken salad and lettuce between a ciabatta roll, but it was simple and great. And what the heck: I can't visit a bakery that has multiple sweets without getting one. I also listened to the advice of the server when she recommended the orange scone. She was right again! It was tender and tasted like a Froot Loop. Blue Sky is located on the corner of a busy street. There are lots of tables, but if you can, sit at the bar that looks out onto the street to see the hustling and bustling college town.

It's in Lexington, home of VMI, and the shop itself is diagonal from a post office built in 1911 with large columns lining its edifice. Sometimes, when college students leave great reviews, that means good food that isn't too expensive. True here, especially for what you get: generous servings on amazing bakery breads. I had the "Sorry Charlie" on a slice of focaccia -- topped with tomato slices and melted cheese and a satisfyingly crunchy, warm crust, with a simple but nicely refreshing black bean and corn salad. Dessert treats are also worth a splurge. The people couldn't be friendlier with customers of all ages enjoying themselves. (And they have a coffee bar. And a "speakeasy"!)
