Foster's Grille, Marshall, VA, late Feb, 2026. This restaurant chain was nostalgic for us as we…read moreused to live in a town that had a Foster's Grille, and our kids' swim team would often go there after meets. Now, many years later, we were excited to find that a Foster's Grille was on-route for us as we traveled between central Virginia and north-central West Virginia. Food (rating: 4/5). Patrons customize their orders by filling out a "ticket" at the counter; meals are delivered to your table. My husband ordered a 1/4 lb. Charburger combo, which included fries and a self-serve 12-oz (refillable) fountain drink. His free customization included lettuce, tomato, pickle, and grilled onions. Other free options included mayo, ketchup, onion, relish, jalapeños, hot sauce, and bbq sauce. Additional options, including cheeses, bacon, chili, and mushrooms, were available for a modest up-charge ($0.95 to $1.25 each). I ordered a Foster's salad with grilled chicken, with honey mustard dressing. (There was a choice of 6 dressings). We split our entrees, and everything was very good and as remembered. As for the burger, it was tasty but the 1/4-lb burger was overwhelmed by the size of the bun. Next time, we would order the 1/2-pounder to avoid that problem. The salad was also tasty, featuring a nice mix of salad greens, 4 wedges of fresh tomatoes, croutons, sunflower seeds, cheddar cheese, and the grilled chicken. We were impressed with the mixture of greens, and the fact that the packet of salad dressing was nonfat. As the chicken was sliced quite thinly, it was somewhat dry. Each entree was a good value, at $9-sometime each before taxes and tip. Ambiance. (3/5). We sat at a booth table that was comfortable and clean. Our main issue was that the rock music was much too loud. Service (4/5). We only interacted with staff at the counter (taking our order) and the server who brought our food. In both cases, staff were efficient and got the job done but neither was particularly friendly (nor unfriendly). Location. (5/5). This stop is very convenient for anyone connecting to I-66 westbound after having traveled north along 17. Parking was sufficient and free.

I arrived after 1pm, and the place was pretty empty, indicating they weren't busy. I started using…read moretheir odd ordering system, where you fill out your own slip of paper to select what you want, and I noticed there was no way to indicate the desired temperature for your burger. I asked the person at the counter if they cooked burgers to temperature, and he said they did, so I wrote it down. I indicated that I wanted my burger medium-rare and saw the employee take a marker to highlight it and write in big, bold, blue letters "Medium Rare" so it was clear. It took more than twenty minutes for my order to come out, and it was well done. They offered to recook it, but I didn't have another twenty minutes to wait, so I asked for a refund. They did not know how to issue the refund, however, and had to call someone to walk them through it because there was clearly no one in management available. They told me they think they did it, but the point-of-sale system wouldn't print a receipt showing proof that it was refunded. After spending more time on the phone, they figured out how to print a receipt that didn't state it was refunded, but merely indicated that the transaction was "voided". All in all, it took forty minutes when they weren't busy for me to walk out without anything other than being hungry (hopefully I get the refund).

Always get your roll toasted at this place, it should help cut down on waste and mess. Secondly, my steak was refrigerator cold. Along with my American cheese not melted. Turns out you get a cold steak if you don't get the roll toasted. This franchise is the worst of the worst. I'm done with Subway and I'd give the Marshall location a negative review if I could.

Chef's kiss, and well worth the drive from DC…read more Field & Main has this special, hard-to-find energy: elevated farm-to-table meets country, without an ounce of pretension. From the moment we sat down, I was handed a personalized menu noting my birthday -- and truly, details matter. We started with a few apps, delicious cocktails, and of course, their wine program is out of this world, really showcasing the beauty of Virginia wine. You can't go wrong here. The smash burger was a hit, and I especially loved the asparagus and gazpacho. It felt like a little adventure around the farm, with a serious slam dunk on comfort food. Best part: they didn't flinch when I mentioned my allergies. They went out of their way to curate dishes for me, even off-menu, which I appreciated so much. Anytime you're in wine country or just desperate to escape the concrete jungle for a meal this is your place.

Went with friends after our reservation elsewhere was canceled due to power outage. This was a…read morereunion dinner so we were thrilled to get one of the cabana's which are perfect for a private party and more intimate conversation. The service was superb, attentive and knowledgeable. We started with cocktails which thankfully were not overly sweet. The starters were excellent - tomato & peach salad, fried corn ribs, and loaded crispy potatoes were especially good. For dinner we had the lamb meatballs, bison steak and Cobia. The Cobia was a little overdone and dry, as were the lamb meatballs, but the tomato curry sauce on the pasta was superb. It paired well with a nice Italian Barolo. The deserts were very tasty - a seasonal berry sundae and a deep dish brownie. Overall we loved the service and the fresh local ingredients. But the entrees didn't live up to our expectations after the starters. Next time we'll try the tasting menu, as I suspect that part of the menu is getting more love and attention from the chef

I stopped by this Chick-fil-A yesterday when returning from a hiking trip. When I drove in, I…read morenoticed that there were three different drive-through lines, which I've never seen before. Most Chick-fil-A's that I am used to have drive through lines. I had some time to burn, so I pulled into the first line. To my pleasant surprise, a staff member came over and took my order on a tablet, along with my payment. He pointed me in the right direction and the second staff member confirmed my order a little bit ahead. I drove up a little bit further and a third staff member gave me my receipt. By this time, the three lines merged into a single line, and the staff members were so good about telling you exactly which car to get behind so that you could get your order. By the time I got to the front window, my food was hot and fresh and ready. They were also able to handle the half strawberry, half vanilla milkshake order (this confused some people but they had it together). Everyone was wearing masks and it was really an easy process. Honestly, this was probably one of the fastest Chick-fil-A trips that I've ever had. Kudos to them for not only taking pandemic safety seriously, but also putting in place a super efficient system! I figured my food would have been cold, but that was not at all the case. Hooray for Chick-fil-A!

I can't recommend this place at all. I'll tell anybody and everybody to go somewhere else…read more Chick-fil-A has fallen from the hard workers that used to run out in the rain to give you the sauce they forgot to give you, to giving you the wrong order after a 20 minute wait in the drive-thru, and making you pull over to the bank next door to get back to you after another 20 minute wait while they get your order correct. Take your business elsewhere, because I will be.

Three fingers with fries, and a club sandwich meal was $22.70 including all taxes. The weird thing is that it still feels like the old Burger King when you go in. The graphics on the walls have changed, but the physical interior is still the same. On one hand, I can't blame the owner for not spending a money to swap perfectly good stuff out. However, for me, it was a bit of disappointment walking in, thinking to myself "This still is just like Burger King inside.".

This has been on my radar for a while to do after a hike and I finally made it! My boyfriend and I…read morecame during the weekend for a late dinner. There was plenty of parking. I agree with others that it's somewhat set up like a Cracker Barrel - a combination of store and restaurant. There are three areas you can eat - outside on the patio, on the bar side (tons of seating of different variety- bench, seats, and couches), and the non-bar side (seating is less and a bit more tight). There's lots of interesting decor and history here. It seems like a nice place to hang out during the colder months when the fireplace gets going. Ordering was super quick and you don't have to sit on the side you ordered from. Just let them know where you will be at and they will come find you (listen for your number). I had the apple cider and I was pleasantly surprised. All the Apple cider I have had is non-alcoholic and I thought that was what I was drinking until my boyfriend set me straight. It was so yummy and I couldn't taste the alcohol at all (my kind of drink)! The ID check should have clued me in...but I thought it was because my boyfriend also ordered an alcoholic drink. My boyfriend ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger with Mac & Cheese while I had the Brisket Grilled Cheese with Bacon Ranch Potato Salad. We also ordered a dozen Apple Butter. Everything tasted good and there was a decent amount of brisket in my sandwich. Even that I recommend letting some pieces with the bbq sauce mix in with the potato salad. It makes it even better! The donuts were good too, but I recommend taking them home and popping them into the microwave for a bit. Then put a scoop of coffee almond ice cream on it. All in all, I definitely wouldn't mind coming back here again after a hike.
