The food was amazing. The donuts were fresh and tasty. The Rockbridge roll-up and French toast were also very good. The staff was friendly, polite, and we felt like family. Will definitely be back. read more

Donuts were a must! Food was okay, cold, so asked to reheat in which they didn't. But cute little place that I'd love to try again

Just ok. Ordered a sausage, egg and cheese sandwich on toast with avocado and it was quite literally two slices of toasted bread with the basics in between (minus the avocado); no sauce or anything. It checked the box for sustenance, but I wouldn't go back. read more

Stopped for lunch while driving through the area back to NC. Super cute place, great food and amazing donuts! The owner was so kind and gave my daughter a tour of the donut making area. Such good tots as well! read more

Wow, this place is one of many wonderful places to eat in the town of Lexington, VA. We're dropping off my son at VMI this weekend and looking for local eating establishments to support and this place was great! Fantastic service by Karen and the other staff, and the food (the burgers) were so fresh and tasty! The homemade donuts were great too! Wonderful food and easy to get to location very close to VMI and Washington & Lee University. read more

Eat local! A lot is locally sourced, even what is on tap and nice quality. They have a unique donut selection, nice quality donut, the flavor remains because it is not greasy. The beef is local, everything tastes fresh and always nice to build your own burger. Worth a stop and save room for tot-chos and donuts. read more

I would rate this just about average. Nothing special or to write home about. Just a quick stop if you're in a rush for breakfast.

Husband's bacon and egg biscuit was good. My BEC bagel was decent. Cinnamon sugar donut was the best thing we ordered. Friendly staff. Cute diner style building. read more

I find the food to be quite hit or miss. The pricing does it no favors. As the kids would say "pretty mid tbh"

Stopped in here to eat on our way out of the wedding. The place is small, but cozy. With room at the bar, a television in the corner, and a great view of their donut selection, you can't really ask for much more. Their doughnuts are made fresh daily. You can tell just by the quality when you bite into it. It's crumbly, moist, chewy. All the delicious synonyms you can think of when describing a doughnut. I had the bacon and egg bagel, and a cinnamon donut. My friend's companion had a wrap with sweet potato fries. The staff were friendly, and chatted us up a bit. Made us feel very welcome and eager to return if we are ever in the area again. read more

We loved this place! The restaurant sits right on route 11 in Lexington, VA. It's bright blue and red colors makes it stand out from the road. The eclectic decor really sets it apart from the usual burger joint. What I love about this place is that their burgers are local as it gets. I ordered their classic burger with lettuce, tomato, and mayo alongside their sweet potato fries. Sooo yummy! Hubby ordered the same with all the fixings (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle) with sweet potato fries as well. Our little had the kids hot dog with french fries. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious! After we were done, we decided to splurge on their homemade donuts and a chocolate milk shake. Absolutely amazing!! I cannot wait to come back when in town! read more

This is a must for breakfast every time I'm in Lexington! They're Rockbridge Roll with bacon and sausage is my favorite and tastes perfect each and every time! It's delicious and has a nice crunch too Their outside seating area is pretty and gives you a great view of the charming area and inside is bright and cheerful too! Can't go wrong here! read more

Burgers were okay but nothing special. We waited a long time for our food and they got the toppings wrong but I didn't feel like waiting even longer for them to get it right. The onion rings were tasty and homemade but seemed a little greasy. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and having a beer but between the wait and the topping snafu I could give or take this place. read more

The customer service at this hamburger place is the worst. I was one of the few people wearing a mask at this place to order takeout, so the lady decides to make an example and pretend they couldn't see anyone at the counter. Instead of taking my order, she wandered around the tables wasting time. I was ready to walk out but my wife outside was looking forward to the hamburger. I'm new to this town and will never be back in Pure Eats again. Also, the hamburgers were only passable, not sure where the other reviews are coming from. read more

Pure Eats? More like pure rip-off! What a joke. The food quality is good. Maybe even a notch better than good. But they nickel and dime you to death. My $9 specialty burger was smaller than ANY other burger joint. Maybe similar to a Five Guys single, at twice the price and no French fries included. For a family of four, two kids burgers, two adult burgers, fries and drinks for everyone, the bill came to $44!!!! Are you kidding? So your telling me, assuming the kids meals cost less than the adults (which they are), that for a burger, soda and fried the adults average around $15per person to eat? Interesting. The kids burgers come out and they are burgers cut in half with cheese and no add-ons!!! For $3.50 per!!! What a joke. We didn't even bother getting donuts at the end. Didn't feel like taking out a loan just to do dessert. Go to ANY other burger joint and spend less and get more and equal quality. read more

Great spot for take out. We had the hamburger with pimento cheese, double cheeseburger, onion rings, and two shakes. Took a bit of time to get the order but everyone was really nice and in the end it was well worth the wait. read more

Great place for breakfast! And awesome home made donuts to die for! Also dog friendly.

Great fresh food and friendly staff. Food is local and yummy! Burger with sweet potato fries is a must and a milkshake (local dairy)!

Charming cottage on Main Street serves large, juicy burgers. Want some fries with that? Be prepared to cough up an extra $4. Add a drink and milkshake and take out a small loan. Rather pricey for burger joint but friendly staff, delicious food, and quaint atmosphere made this a pleasant experience. read more

Bleu burger, fries, and beef dog were delicious. Unfortunately, we asked for no pickles on the chicken sandwich - but served onboard anyway. All was served mildly warm after quite a long wait. Great selection of local brews. read more

My kids and I were visiting Lexington so I was browsing Yelp for some places to eat nearby our hotel. We didn't have time to pop in until our last day when we were actually about to head home. I had read their cinnamon sugar donuts were delicious so I bought a half-dozen to take home with us to share with my kids and husband (who didn't go on this trip). Lets just say my husband and I ate all the donuts by ourselves and ddin't share any with the kids. We're now talking about just driving up to Lexington (a 3-hour drive!) just for donuts! read more

This restaurant was absolutely delicious!!! It's a cute little mom and pop shop with a wonderful homey atmosphere! It's right next to the movie theater and is a go-to-stop after a evening movie! I went with a few friends and the staff were so sweet! Burgers were moist and flavorful and the fries were cooked to perfection. The chicken sandwich was juicy and tender and had beautiful grill marks. The doughnuts were next level! So soft and fluffy!!! 10/10 would recommend to anyone popping in at Lexington! read more

Tasty local lunch burger place. Limited menu, friendly staff, fun atmosphere. Order at bar where you enter. All items are a-la-carte. Pick chicken, ground beef, or veggie patty, then pick fresh veggies to add, and pay to add cheese. Burger was the size and flavor of a typical home grilled burger (tasted good, but not out-of-this-world or anything. Size adequare but not huge). Side items (ordered separately) were our highlight. We loved the perfectly crispy fried pickles and sweet potato fries. Pickle dish was a little small (maybe 10 chips) but fries were plentiful. Came with ranch dressing, which was a nice surprise. We tried one donut, pretty tasty for 2pm. Iced tea was fresh brewed, plentiful, and refreshing. 2 people ate for $27... more than fast food, but a little better too. Fun, casual burger joint. Worth a visit! read more

This place seemed really cute and amazing when I first walked in. That changed real fast. I went to order a breakfast bagel sandwich for me and my husband. It states that's $6 for bacon egg and cream cheese (so the lady said), but I added cheddar cheese and avocado. Which was extra .75 cents each. I ordered extra cheese and asked for the cream cheese to be on both sides with and over eat egg. She was nice at first but then started acting really rude to me. I'm assuming it's because of my anti racism shirt that is pretty blunt. Her and the lady in the kitchen stood there and were glaring and whispering the entire time. When I got my order I looked at it and knew right away it was messed up. The egg was over hard, barely any cream cheese and hardly any cheddar. I looked at her and she gave me this arrogant look. So I figured it wasn't worth my time and left. I paid $32 for what should have been $8 breakfast bagel each read more

I've been there twice now and had the veggie burger both times. It's definitely expensive but by now most people should know that before they even go there. The reason why it feels even more expensive is because asides from some of the local ingredients there is nothing else that screams luxury. There are no special crafted local ingredients, no special house made bun and it's also smaller than you'd expect. Last time I paid this much for a veggie burger was in downtown Brooklyn about 2 weeks ago, and it was at an all organic, non-gmo joint served with organic ketchup. So 1 star gets knocked off for a high cost without a proper follow through. Another star gets knocked off because the veggie burger has to be ranked against the best I've had which was Burger Village to which this doesn't compare. I think your clientele is saying something, loudly. Please adjust and come back strong. read more

Ordered takeout breakfast on the road to drop the kids off for camp. A bunch of breakfast burritos -stellar - they add a deep fried hash brown for extra crunch - and avocado). My youngest said three times how good his food was. Breakfast sandwich also got good reviews from the back seat. Picked up 4 homemade donuts, cake style - blueberry lemon and maple bacon were the favorites. Friendly staff, had our order ready quickly. Would absolutely recommend when you are looking for a quick bite and don't want fast food. read more

Solid place. Little hole in the wall that needs some love. Great food great service and wonderful staff.

We came through on a Sunday morning and had doughnuts (good), bagel sandwich (not so good) and the breakfast burrito (just ok).

Stopped here for an early morning breakfast on an out-of-town trip. Friendly woman working behind the counter took our order. Food was fresh and extremely tasty. Would highly recommend the Rockbridge Roll-Up with avocado - light and delicious! read more

Worst service ever! Visiting my son. Waited at counter for over 10 minutes. Lady working register didn't acknowledge me or line behind me! She even took an order that just called in with all of us standing there. I and everyone behind me walked out in disbelief! NEVER again! Lost over 5 customers! Pure Eats was Pure BS! read more

Tasty burgers and love the tallow fries! Also good ice cream. You can also sit outside in a great setting.

I am not sure why the Yelp rating here is so low. The staff was friendly when I visited. It's a cute space. The parking is ok--easy in and out. I ordered a chicken sandwich with cheese and it was very very good. I get really nervous eating chicken when I travel, but I sliced it all the way thru to make sure it was thoroughly cooked. The bathroom was also very clean as was the rest of the restaurant. There are several AVERAGE restaurants in Lexington but this is a safe bet for burgers, fries, donuts AND chicken sandwiches. read more

This is a place that has pretty good food and a nice friendly staff. I like the fact that they source locally too. The burgers are absolutely delicious, and the fries are stellar (the ones I had were hot out the oil, with a nice amount of salt to them). I haven't been earlier enough to try the doughnuts and yet to have a shake, but they are most certainly on the to-do list. The only real down side here is that they are a bit expensive. I understand having local ingredients means that there has to be a bit of a premium, but when its $15 for a double cheeseburger here, some of the other options in the area become a bit more attractive, even if I would rather eat here. If they had prices that came down a bit I could definitely see myself stoping in here regularly for lunch. I also want to commend these guys for the customer service the provide. I had an incident when a communcation error between me and the person taking my order led to me receiving a burger I really did not want to eat and had to walk about a half mile to return (Im picky with toppings). The staff were flexible in addressing the situation, and I certainly see myself returning in the future. read more
