They have a mix of local bulk foods (honey, jellies, jams, chocolates, candies, etc.), a cooler aisle (drinks, sauerkraut, etc.), and a sandwich deli in the back. Bathrooms are clean.

I'm going with three stars instead of two because everyone has their inconsistencies or bad days…read morebut our visit was disappointing compared to the more glowing consensus rating and here's why... The restaurant has a nice, open concept, a bistro feel that one would expect from the other reviews and their strong coffee culture. We arrived at 12:48, so the end of lunch hour on a Monday and were promptly seated at a two top window seat. Except the orientation of the table was one of us looking out the window and one looking into the restaurant, perpendicular to the window. Not a big deal, but I've seen parallel to the window table seating with both able to look out the window and optimizing that space work much better. There was a bottle of still water and two glasses on the table as their standard practice, nice touch, especially since we had just walked 5 miles of the Virginia Creeper Trail. So, we had researched where to eat in town and felt we had earned a few extra calories and this restaurant had high reviews, so it was our number one selection. We were seated within a couple of minutes we had menus and our order was placed. We were informed though, that they were out of the special of the day, the grilled cheese. Now, I wasn't planning on having a grilled cheese, but immediately I began to wonder, "how does one run out of a grilled cheese" and also I wondered why would you tell me about a special that I didn't know about if you had just run out of it? I wasn't the only one, I overheard a nearby table ask the same thing. Turns out it was a grilled cheese with apple butter and steak. Sounded pretty good, but it probably shouldn't have been mentioned so that I wouldn't want one. Instead, I had "Your Rabbi's Favorite Reuben". Each sandwich on the menu comes with a pickle spear and chips or you can upgrade to fries for +$4 or truffle fries for +$5. So I ordered truffle fries. But they didn't have truffle fries, would I like Parmesan fries instead? No thank you, just the regular fries. And a water. My wife had the chicken salad sandwich with regular fries and a Diet Coke (8 ounces or so in a glass with ice). Which it turns out we were later informed no free refills on the Coke. In my many Reuben reviews, I always note that whether it's a fancy restaurant or a dive, if you can't at least beat out Arby's version, you are in trouble. The first half of my Reuben was okay. Warm throughout, not soggy on either side (a soggy underside is often the Achilles heel to many a Reuben) and was on marbled rye. Portions of components were all represented but not the "best Reuben ever" level or "lots of meat" as reported in other reviews. It was above Arby's, but not by much. It even looked just like Arby's version. It did have a better and more buttery toasted crunch on the bread, both sides. What was wild was biting into the second half of my sandwich, having eaten the mediocre first half. This half had significantly more meat, and you could tell that the meat was not pre-sliced but likely cooked on premise. Is this even the same sandwich?While notably better than the first half, the overall inconsistency of the sum total was disappointing and it was still just a "good" Reuben, as one in a field of many. I wound up just eating mostly the inside components of the second half, since it just wasn't exciting. The fries were an absolute fail and a disappointment. String fries that may have been under the warmer since start of lunch service. You know when a buddy orders a fast food meal and maybe your driving together in the car and finally after he eats all he wants and there are some left over fries that have been in the bag for about 45 minutes, but you eat some anyway? You've done it, admit it. Well that's what we got. Most of them left uneaten. They were terrible. My wife reported the chicken salad sandwich was good. Total bill was $50.53. I left $60 to cover tip. Unfortunately, when a restaurant is overpriced for the value, that extends to the tip too. For $30 per person, our expectations were higher and were not met with this visit. Plus, maybe for that price, one refill on the Diet Coke might be acceptable?

I suppose proximity to the Va Creeper Trail encouraged this as I could see folk holding up a table whilst waiting would be a potential issue. We were seated promptly and given menus and served water and sodas. The rock music was pretty loud for the restaurant, which has some smaller rooms that are serviceable but cramped and a bit echoey and dark. By 12:35 our order was in and by 12:51 on our table. The table has a nice individual light, and a bottle of water on the table. Unlike some other local restaurants, soda refills are free and a pitcher was brought by the table to serve refills of diet coke. What was not good was the large beer poster of the St Paulie Girl with her nipples hanging out. I realize these are beer posters and I realize they are German and things are different there. But this was a prominently placed poster. I just wouldn't think a place where a lot of families dine would put this in such a prominent spot, or any spot really. I'm not a super prude, I just raised three sons. So the sandwich though, was very good.

The only reason for a missing star is that this environment is not for everyone. It's terrific if you want to bring your children to a place where they can totally entertain themselves while you enjoy a lunch with friends. I was looking for a quiet place where I could relax. That was difficult with a little girl (even though she was precious and cute) screaming and riding a skateboard inside. I was glad that she and her little brother could just be themselves and have a great time, but that can be somewhat problematic for diners. Just be aware going in that if this isn't your style you may just want to get a take out.
