    100/10 service - every employee that passed asked if we could use anything or offered to top off our drinks (while carrying pitchers - that's on efficiency).. food quality was outstanding and prices were great. I'd absolutely recommend this to anyone in the Lexington area or even if you are passing by. It's worth a stop.

    Ladies Room, Sunrise Diner, Lexington VA

    Wonderful Sunday diner food! At least that's when we always go... Great omelets cooked to order, the best French Toast, and then there's the breakfast Banana Split - a split banana topped with vanilla Greek yogurt, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and granola! Everything arrives quickly and the staff is super friendly. They serve lunch too but we've eaten lunch because the breakfast is so good! Ambiance is a fun diner with the local college and university shirts (there are 3 within 6 miles!) on the walls, along with country ambience and a bit of livestock humor. Love the sign in the ladies room!

    Friendly people, clean space, good food.

I was hungry and not in the mood to move my vehicle from the hotel parking lot as street parking in Lexington can be a challenge. I arrived at about 9AM and the only other customers were 2 college age girls who never exchanged a word with the other since they were on their phones. I ordered a Hillel and a large coffee. The only available creamer was pumpkin spice which I'd never had in my life. What is a Hillel you ask? It was salmon, caper, onion, and cream cheese in a bagel for about 10 bucks, however either it was tasty or I was starving and would have enjoyed a spam sandwich. The college aged staff were reasonably friendly, accommodating, and my order was ready in a jiffy. The cafe is located on the campus of Washington & Lee University whose current president has a left-leaning agenda for its students. Not a bad deal for a quick meal if you're hungry. The portions aren't huge, but probably more in line with quantities more conducive to health, and prices are somewhat high. PS I don't like pumpkin -spiced coffee

This little shop is fantastic. From 8 AM into the afternoon, they offer delicious coffee, tea, hot chocolate, pastries, and snacks that feel both cozy and elevated.

It was so good that a few miles down the road, I seriously considered turning around to get more.

I went ahead with that, and it was both redundant of classic ice cream sandwiches, but also delivered a highly pure dairy flavor typical of quality gelato. I got a Matcha to balance out the sweetness. While it looks a little foamy on top, it was a very strong, almost grass flavored beverage that was appropriate to the circumstance. Some premade grab and go food options may be decent, but did not appeal to my needs at that time.

Had a few cars out front so we thought that was a good sign. We sat ourselves. I got the special of the day and my husband got turkey sandwich. Ordering was interesting the server was abrupt. I laughed after she walked off because she was so sassy to my husband. He was asking her what came on the sandwich and she just kept repeating you tell me. This restaurant needs to be cleaned. Everything from the front door to the restrooms. The carpet is not cleanable. They need to replace the foot all together. We had met 10 bikers at the restaurant that was closed and a couple of them were sitting at a table right next to ours. They were not impressed with anything at this restaurant either. In fact when the one biker got his food he turned to me and said "does this look like a hamburger to you?" I will not be recommending this restaurant but I will have to say. Our server was really determined to keep our drinks filled. She literally took it from my hand without asking and filled it. I just laughed a little awkwardly. She grabbed one of the biker guys glass. He said HEY really loud. She was already halfway across the room and she responded "I will be right back" My special was not great but edible and my husband said his sandwich was ok and we were super happy our entire meals with endless drinks was 11 dollars total. I have to say their prices are great. If they made a few improvements they would be better

Even though I ordered pie from a case (definitely not home made) the only thing we ordered that came was the chocolate milk. Two stars since the waitress was understanding when we left and didn't charge us for the milk. Avoid.

Upon her getting close and speaking it was very apparent she was very intoxicated and I remarked that it was sad about her condition. As we waited for our food we watched her interactions with other tables and she had problems remembering what table was which. She delivered food to the wrong tables and dropped other food on the floor trying to deliver it. Her fellow waitresses were actually calling her out in the middle of the dining room telling her to get her act together. When she delivered the food the hamburger steak platter was literally a dry hamburger patty that was old and had a thimble of gravy. the mashed potatoes were instant and had been poorly mixed because the powder was still dry in the middle. The glazed carrots were old soggy and brown ( see the picture) . We never got a bill because she just disappeared completely. We went to pay and the cashier was able to look up the order and we spoke to her about the waitress needing some help and her condition and all she would say is " we will try"
