I was riding through the area, having just visited my ancestral home up in Hollidaysburg, when it…read morecame around to lunchtime. I was on my way South at this point and heading for the start of the Skyline Drive down in Virginia, keeping an eye out for a place to stop for lunch. I like to eat at non-chain restaurants when I am traveling, as it gives me a taste of the local area rather than corporate America, which is the same everywhere. Hence when I came across Kelly's Scenic View Restaurant, I took the bait and went for it. In the parking lot there were a number of vehicles, and many of them were work vehicles of people that were stopping on their lunch breaks for a bite to eat, which is usually a good sign that the food is decent. I was wrong. Let's go through the food first. It really doesn't get any more basic than the menu they have here. I went for a cheeseburger with some fries, and it was as basic as you could get... bit of lettuce, tomato, and onion on a bun and some condiments on the side. Fries were out of the freezer. Looking around at what everyone else was eating, it was of the same quality... prepared foods straight from SysCo. Frankly, I would have been fine with the food if the restaurant actually provided what it was promoting in its own name... a scenic view. While the valley this restaurant overlooks is quite scenic, the fact of the matter is that when you get inside the restaurant, there is no view. You are stuck in a room with windows facing the roadside away from the valley, and those are covered up not really even letting in any natural light. There apparently is one window looking out to the valley, overlooking a propane tank, but I never saw it... no clue where it was. The interior reminds me of eateries out of the 1960's, and frankly the food matches this memory. There is so much potential here with the view, but it looks like that will likely require new leadership to actually happen.

I recently visited the Old Canal Inn with a group for lunch. This bar/restaurant seems to have a…read moreregular following that come in frequently and know the staff and other regulars. The restaurant area was nice, not very large, and most of the tables were filled by lunch time. There appeared to be only one server for lunch and while she did her best to keep up, the service got pretty slow as the tables filled up. The menu was varied with plenty of selections and prices were comparable to other similar restaurants in town. Everyone seemed to like the food they ordered, but I have to say the portions were much smaller than expected. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich and fries. It was tasty, but the sandwich was about the size of a regular McDonalds cheeseburger, and the fries were about what you get in a small order of fries. That cost $12.95, and as a value, it was noticeably less than what you could get at any number of nearby places for the same money. It just gave us a feeling of being skimped on. All in all it was ok and I'd go back and try it again but it wouldn't be my first choice of places to go.

Then suddenly, at 9pm, the awesome music was turned off and instead some kinda obscure crap from the TV with the crappiest speakers was turned on. Did we and the other customers do something wrong? Why are they trying to get everyone to leave? A few groups did get up to leave at that point. The ambiance went from "relaxing nice local bar" to "you don't have to go home but get the eff outta here". Just an FYI for Old Canal Inn: you cannot go wrong with classic 70's rock playing in the background. It's a genre pretty much everyone likes. Probably shouldn't rely on that one busboy with peculiar tastes to pick the music.

They had soft country music playing and country decorations on the walls. Very pleasant atmosphere. I got a loaded baked potato and a grilled chicken salad. The baked orator was one of the best I've ever had. Cooked perfectly and had plenty of melted cheese and bacon bits on it. The salad was BIG. My Mom had fried steak dinner. It came with mashed potato's, plenty of gravy and a side salad. Nice size serving of meat and she ate the whole thing so I know she loved it. We got dessert too. All the desserts are home made. I got strawberry pie (tons of strawberries) and Mom had some sort of Angel food cake with a pineapple whipped cream sauce all over it. Yum. Our server was super nice and the service was good. She came and checked on us multiple times. Very pleasant lady.

This five-star review doesn't come because this side of the country isn't saddled with many replete restaurant choices. But because the food is cooked fresh and the wait isn't normally too long. Just think classic, American diner food, but cooked better. The last time, my roasted beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and beef gravy was so hearty and delicious, I ate it all. It can get quite busy sometimes so I would recommend reservations for larger groups. And every time I came here, I left with a box full of sugar cookies from the bakery to take back home to FL to enjoy. There's no better touch-of-home than a homemade sugar cookie with frosting.
