My husband and I stopped here during our trip to ohio and our server was very friendly. Great food for a good price will definitely visit again when passing by. read more

I have visited this restaurant several times over the years and never expected exceptional service. Really only ever the bare minimum. Unfortunately, even that appears to be too much to ask. On my most recent visit, I arrived alone and took an open seat at the bar, which seemed like the obvious choice for a solo diner. I immediately noticed food from a completely different fast-food restaurant scattered across part of the counter. Since it was on the employee side of the bar and both employees were standing behind it, I reasonably assumed they were eating between tasks. In fact, one employee was actively eating from the food while on the clock. While unprofessional, I chose to overlook it. What I could not overlook was the behavior of the employee I later learned was named Betty. Rather than greeting me or taking my order, Betty decided to make comments about my choice of seating to the other patrons sitting at the bar. Instead of speaking to me directly, she chose to publicly imply that I had done something wrong by sitting in an open seat clearly intended for customers. When I asked whether she was referring to me, she confronted me and explained that it should have been "obvious" that the area occupied by their fast-food meal was reserved for the employees. Let that sink in: an employee eating food from another restaurant behind the counter felt entitled to publicly criticize a paying customer for sitting at a customer seat because it interfered with her personal breakfast. The entire interaction was embarrassing, unprofessional, and incredibly disrespectful. The issue wasn't the food. It wasn't the seat. It was the astonishing sense of entitlement and complete lack of customer service displayed by someone whose job is to provide hospitality. If employees want designated dining areas, management should provide them. What should never happen is a customer being publicly singled out and treated like an inconvenience for using a seat intended for patrons. Needless to say, I left without ordering. I will not be returning, and I will be sharing this experience with others. Poor service is one thing. Being openly mocked and confronted for sitting in an available customer seat is another level entirely. This restaurant already struggled with mediocre service. After this experience, it has earned something far worse: a reputation for making customers feel unwelcome. read more

While on a driving trip, we saw this diner listed on a "Food" sign on Interstate 64 East. The diner is the first left after the right turn exit. There was currently no printed menu; we were told "it's on the ceiling" above your head. It is there.. ...but without any prices. We had the turkey player with two sides and a drink. The total bill was $27 for two players. The sides were great, the turkey? We enjoyed our meal and it was a great experience being back in a genuine diner. read more

Went here last year while camping nearby and had a great meal. We really enjoyed it and planned to go back. Second time last year they were out of a few things but left satisfied. This year when we went they were out of almost everything, and told us the hot bar was down. We ended up leaving to go to another restaurant. Not sure if we will ever go back. A 24 hour restaurant should be able to keep food selections in stock. read more

We stopped by here because we had nostalgia for diner food. When we walked in, we were the only customers. The service was great. The food was excellent of it sort. Great diner food. Chicken fried steak was great and the mashed potatoes were better than mine. The Side salad was big enough for a family of four and had much more than just lettuce on it. I was dubious about the desserts because they came wrapped in individual plastic envelopes, but the brownie I had was epic And big enough for two nights to be shared with my husband. The place was very clean, including the bathrooms. We will definitely be going back. read more

Great diner food full menu all day with 24hr service. Turn off interstate and another unmarked turn but very close for a quick in and out good meal. Legit classic diner neat interior. read more

The food is not that great and with the waitresses, talking loud to other customers who are clear at the front of the building, I don't think this would be my cup of tea read more

Walked in, 4 employees, 3 diners. 45 min wait. Said big to-go order. I would have believed them but I was eating here last night and they looked out the window and asked "do we want this party?" It is a 24-7 diner.... 1star because it is a pretty building. read more

Service was exceptional. Ambiance of olden days restaurant. Easter Sunday special was good. I ordered chili. More like tomato soup with beans and a bit of meat. Didn't like. But I left satisfied. read more

One of my kids favorites as they have a huge menu and make homemade milkshakes; there's something for everyone, it feels like you step back in time. read more

Really great diner food. We didn't know if they were really open 24/7, since we were just passing through and it was late. We asked a gas station cashier and they confirmed it was. We were really happy they were, too! Everyone was really happy with their food. The guy took our order and cooked it in front of us. Not bad for a 24/7 diner! read more

Stopped here after 10pm and had a great omelette. Full menu all day. Friendly staff. Great prices.

Don't waste your time or money. it's obvious staff has no desire to be working. food not that great.

Overworked staff, some employees think they are better than others, new management sucks, they do not temp the hot bar every two hours or every so many minutes as should be by food service standards. read more

I was really impressed by the service and quality of food the first time I came here with my family. We came again today and the service and food quality was very poor. Our waitress was rude, the cooking staff was hateful. Our food was undercooked and when we complained we got attitude; sorry not eating raw chicken. And they forgot to cook one of our party's food. I was so disappointed as I was really hoping to have the same wonderful experience I had the first time we were there but sadly was treated otherwise read more

Found this place while traveling across the states with two kids. It was a lovely surprise. The food came out fast, the staff were super friendly with my kids and the meal was delicious! Was a nice pit stop to find. read more

Looking for a place. And, Penny's was a perfect stop. Great location, great service, awesome prices and food was really good.

The Wyndham Hotel is next to the diner. You actually check in at the diner. This is a cute little place. It is a typical diner. Our server was just starting her first day. She had a few gaps in service but did a fairly decent job of helping us. The sweet rolls were a hit. You can get a meal for under $10. read more

I can't remember a time I've been spoken to so rudely. We had a party of 6. Were told that the only table they had that would accommodate us wasn't available & then a curt nod to 4 open counter stools & were told we could sit there if we wanted. There were 6 of us - if the lack of manners and friendliness is reflected in the food, I'm amazed they're still open read more

I'm going with a solid four stars. It is a diner that is open 24/7 and I'm not grading it based on a "fine dining" experience. The food was exactly as I expected and it came out as it was prepared meaning that not all plates came at the same time. All of the food was delivered nice and hot and I really appreciated that! I'll be back again the next time I'm visiting family in the area. I wanted a biscuit rather than toast or a pancake with my breakfast, my son in law wanted cheese on his scrambled eggs and they served it up just like we asked for it. I asked for an add on side of gravy and it was on the table right away and piping hot. I could go on and on... read more

Stopped in for Dinner after a very rough workweek. What an amazing end to a hard day. Best customer service ever, our waiter was friendly, helpful, fun and took great care of us. He made the prettiest ice cream brownie sundae ever too, truly a work of art. Our burgers were incredible. Perfectly cooked, very fresh, looked as great as they tasted, and the cook had such a positive and fun personality. The entire staff had us smiling, I definitely found my new favorite spot to eat. read more

I finally stopped in at this diner after driving by for many years. I should have kept driving by. The service was almost pathetic. They forgot part of the order and we witnessed them putting food back on the plate after it fell off. As I waited for our food, I noticed how many things there had that "old" dirty look. Even the exit sign was greasy and dirty. The food was a solid "meh"! Bland. My recommendation is don't spend a Penny at "Penny's" read more

The food was average, the price was good for the amount of food. Staff were very friendly. I guess the good, but could be better.

Lovely folk, nice to have a 24 hour option. Often visit late and enjoy the conversation

Amazing night people and amazing food! And the place is always clean! I recommend everyone to come to pennys!

The workers on night shift is amazing and the day shift are good at making food. The food is always amazing a good. Their always nice and kind and the place is normally quiet. The atmosphere is of the place is amazing and neat. read more

Great food and pleasant experience. Service was fast and efficient. Ambiance was a 60s diner. Overall everything was perfect.

Straight up the best breakfast in town. Every ihop wishes they could match the food service & ambiance of this local establishment.

The server never served us. A cook took drink orders and brought them out. She took our food orders and she never returned to our table. The food was delivered by the kitchen staff. The gravy was like soup it was so thin so we sent back two orders. I ordered a side of gravy with my meal and it came out thick but barely luke warm from the microwave. The hashbrowns were also cold. The bacon and eggs were good and fresh but that was it. Nobody ever checked on us after bringing new biscuits and gravy. Most the food was inedible. When we told the wait staff they just looked at us like they didn't care so we informed them we were there an hour and got cold food twice and couldn't eat it so we weren't paying. No apologies or offers to make it right. We left and probably won't return. Which is a shame bc we had a good experience and good food last year he we stopped in. read more

Beautiful location! Cute and clean diner. The Monterrey chicken was delicious as were the fries, however i did have to pick through it prior to eating as i requested and re emphasized no mushrooms but then got it with mushrooms. In the guy's defense, he was the only worker there and doing all roles from seating, taking orders, cooking and ringing up! I would visit again when in the area. read more

I was going to give a 3 star review because the diner was clean and my server was friendly and prompt. I ordered The Sea Dog. Basically a fried fish sandwich w/lettuce and tomatoes. From the sides; onion rings, fries and something else, I chose fries. Also, my drink was a sweet tea. The ice tea was topping the scale on sweet. I just have to mentally note to get unsweetened tea from now on. I think it's me. My Sea Dog was ok. I should have caught myself when ordering it...I knew there was no way it'd be fresh. Even if flash frozen from fresh... But..it was ok...the fries were the regular Burger King kind of fries. I didn't really like them. I wish I had just ordered eggs and hashbrowns. I asked for a chocolate milkshake to go. That also was just ok. I think this group also runs the hotel next door. (Just fyi) As I was leaving one of the guys that was helping the cook left just before me. He got to his truck and I heard him throw up. He turned around real quick and saw me look at him. This guy was just helping the cook with orders. Really?? I wish I didn't stop. read more

This place was a great find! It's off the highway and right next to the Oak Tree Inn. We didn't stay at the Inn, but may consider staying there next time we're out this way. I had the short stack pancakes and bacon and my companion had the ranch plate with chicken fried steak with white pepper gravy (delish), eggs, hash browns, and one panacake. My short stack was just enough, 2 pancakes, and the bacon was fresh. It was quite good. I wished I would've ordered the biscuits with gravy just so I could have some of that white pepper gravy, which I sampled and determined I missed out having not ordered at least a bit of it. If you like diners, and we do, I recommend Penny's. It was clean, really cute, staff was really friendly, food was great, and you can't beat the price, $22, for the both of us. read more

Penny's Diner - An original! - Diners Near Me - Low Moor, Virginia

We have been going to Pennys for years and loved it. Tuesday, Dec. 24, we decided to go there to celebrate Christmas Eve. My daughter ordered coke to drink. They were out!! We looked at the menu and decided we would both have the philly steak. They were out!!! My daughter settled on a burger served on toasted rye. They were out of rye!! I ordered the mushroom swiss burger. It was served on a plain hamburger bun, with a burger (which was falling apart and tasteless), a slice of swiss cheese and 4 (yes 4) very thin slices of raw mushrooms. They did give us a discount on the dinner and I suggested they send their cook to Mc Donalds or Hardees to see how a mushroom swiss is made. We will not be going to Pennys again anytime soon. read more

Absolutely great place to have breakfast. Out for a little cruise and just happened to drive by and stop.

Went to the restaurant after hearing Phlash Phelps advertise on his SiriusXM 60's show. Typical diner food and nothing stood out with our breakfast and lunch entrees. Service was good. Cleanliness not so much. read more

It's a cute little 50s-style diner not far from the interstate with super nice people. My daughter and her husband really like this place and had nice breakfast food (which they apparently serve all day). Unfortunately I did not enjoy my sandwich as much as they enjoyed their meal. I was thinking that this place is like a Waffle House in that breakfast is very good but perhaps the other menu items are not their forte. I'll give it another shot in the future and try something else on the menu. read more

Just not good food. Roast beef dinner special was sliced sandwich meat. Precooked flavorless hamburgers. Poor quality overpriced food. Keep driving. read more

On a recent vacation through Virginia, I stopped by Penny's Diner for some grub. It was a classic dining experience. Everything about the diner is retro and delightful. The food is inexpensive, prepared right in front of you, and was mighty tasty. The wait staff was extremely friendly and talked with me for a few minutes to see where I was traveling to and from. If you like old school diners, then you have to stop here on your next trip through the Virginia mountains. read more

Atmosphere was diner-like. Missed the mark on the food. Didn't have beef for the Famous Philly, went with the Rueben. Corned beef extremely chewy. Kids' grilled cheese and fries were okay. Ordered a milkshake and a root beer float, cups were not full of either for the price. Should of had smaller cups if they aren't going to fill up what they serve them in. read more
