    Shout out to Local Eats cafe in Palmyra, VA where we ate lunch. Local Eats is Farm-to-Table with vegan options. Delicious food and delightful staff. Female owned.

    2 chocolate chip pancakes, vegan burrito and coffee.

    Great service, delicious food, and lots of plant based options! Staff was very knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and portion sizes! Small seating area, but takeout options available. There is a small store in the back offering local choices including cards, earrings, tea, coffee, wine, beer and fresh produce!

    Cute tables to eat

    So glad we walked a few doors down in this little strip mall to eat here. Wonderfully friendly owner who cooked everything made to order. Pancakes, omlets, biscuits filled us up on a long road trip. They also have lots if local fresh things to pick up : Honey, wine, eggs, meats, veggies, and a few baked goods.

    Southwestern omelet

    Cute little place. Local fruits and veggies along with local handmade items. There is a small seating area to eat inside.

    Please Ignore The Following Reviews:…read more 1. People who have not tried the food. The chicken is not dried out, it is crispy, savory, and delicious. The sides are all excellent. If you arrived late or near closing time, I suggest you come around lunch time. Leaving a negative review because you couldn't or wouldn't eat here is problematic to places that work hard to put out a quality product. 2. People who don't enjoy chicken. Yes, people have told me they don't like Brown's because they don't eat meat. Great. 3. People disgusted with its location. Yes, it's in a gas station. That is part of this location's appeal; it's a genuine hole in the wall. The food tastes great and they wouldn't be allowed to operate if they were dirty, which, in my opinion, they aren't. 4. People irritated at how a manager is speaking to a customer. I get it, this can irritate me, too. But 1 star? Get out of town. I've been going here for years, and the old and new management has been nothing but kind to the people I've seen order. This, along with Wayside Chicken and Mel's Cafe, is some of the absolute best fried chicken in Charlottesville. Best of all, it's affordable! Please support this place, spread the word, and learn what the hype it all about.

    Somebody reach out to Michael Stern. His Roadfood review is sorely out of date. The business is…read morestill there, but it's no longer owned by the Brown family. Some other family runs it. The chicken is edible, but not memorable. The pieces are pretty small as well. Not worth a detour.
