I didn't try the food here during this visit. Everything else was fine though. I will say that the guy pressure washing the front sidewalk really needed to do a better job paying attention to customers walking out to know when to stop that darn thing! He didn't stop and I stopped as I was walking out to wait for him - then he stopped, I walked past and he immediately started it again thus getting spray on me. There's no need for that.

Disgusting, wet, and microwaved sandwiches. Cool location, horrible service, even worse food…read more Dont let this 50s style soda fountain diner in the back of a drug store fool you: the food is awful. You'd think with an entire chalkboard dedicated to pastrami sandwiches they would have a decent reuben. Not even close. The reuben was literally drenched in cheap plastic-bottled thousand island sauce (that salad dressing they sell at grocery stores). The meat was old. Sandwich was nothing short of disgusting. My mac salad just tasted like macaroni mixed in mayonnaise, although by comparison with the wet microwaved sandwich the mac salad was better. I also tried their egg cream soda, but as the photo shows, the waitress could not even be bothered to mix it: so it was chocolate syrup underneath a cup full of soda water, and thats it, which was hard to stir with a plastic straw. Service was bad too. Waitress took forever, never checked on us, spent a lot of time hanging out with the chef, and spoke negatively about customers right in front of them while talking to the chef. And the chef took an insane amount of time: over half an hour to make (including both my group and people ahead of us) less than ten simple, disgusting sandwiches. Worst meal I've had in years.

Established in 1890, Timberlakes Drug Store is a family-owned pharmacy and soda fountain located…read moreright off the Charlottesville downtown mall. The drug store is in the front and offers everything a typical pharmacy would sell only more old-timey. I felt like I was on the set of "Now and Then" or some other nostalgia era themed movie. Keep going and you'll hit the restaurant portion of the store which sells a variety of housemade soups, chili, sandwiches, lemonades, and more. The kiddos loved taking a seat at the long bar and ordering their milkshakes and the counter person was as nice as can be. My husband had a hankering for their homemade chili and thought it was delicious. It was a fond bonding moment for everyone!

Obviously if you really want to fat ass and they have plenty of great greasy options to choose from that are homemade, but if you long for something healthy while being on the road it's a great option. So bypass the Mickey D's and jaunt down the road another mile or two to this place. You won't be disappointed!

To add insult to injury, they messed up my order and had me pay for things I never got. I called them back immediately once I had discovered what happened. The female cashier who picked up laughed like her mistake and sheer rudeness towards me and other customers was funny. I am disgusted. This place lost my family's business entirely and anyone else that reads this post and doesn't want to be treated like crap. AVOID!!!!!!! Plenty of other great places to go!

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.

I love Donna, Chad, Aniyah(spelling?) the blonde haired young lady, she has 2beautiful daughters & a very tall husband (she works mainly in the back and I can't remember her name!) she is awesome. There are so many great employees and I always feel welcome. The only small thing I was rather disappointed in was a young man, who I think was one of the butchers, he was wearing one of the white butcher coats. He was out putting packs of meat out in the displays, and he was not wearing a mask! I could see he had a guard for his beard (and that wasn't even on his beard at the time) but I was more concerned that he didn't have a mask on. He was wearing one of those plastic "sneeze guards", Which are great if you are in close proximity ti someone who spews saliva droplets from a sneeze or otherwise. A plastic shield does NOT replace a mask. They are supposed to be worn in addition to a mask. Despite this, I really recommend this Food Lion over any of the other local stores!!

For a gas station without much around, it was a good meal at a reasonable price. I went with the 3-piece dinner, which gets you a thigh, wing, drumstick, and two sides. There were a few options and I went with scalloped potatoes and onion rings... Oh, and a dinner roll. For $9.99 it felt pretty reasonable. Chicken and sides were warm. Chicken was crispy, good seasoning, but not complex flavor. Onion rings are real onion rings (not minced) and batter fried. Scalloped potatoes were better than expected and they were a decent portion. In the end, it was good fried chicken from a gas station, though I don't think I'd go out of the way for it. Driving past at meal time and it's a reasonable option that won't break the bank.
