    Steak & Eggs
    Eric S.

    First time here now under a different name. Had breakfast which was a steak and egg with potatoes. Service was excellent and food was decent. Love home grown spots. Not a very large place and is without all the frills of a large establishment. But no real complaints.

    Uncle Richard's Breakfast.  Pancakes, bacon, potatoes, eggs.
    Lee M.

    Man what?!!! Pancakes!!! Best I've ever had!!! 15/10. I don't know what was in them pancakes, but I might need to work here just to steal the recipe!!! Potatoes!! 10/10 It's taste like those fancy potatoes you get from a certain winery in Temecula, Ca. but definitely way better. IYkYK!! Thank you!!! Eggs and bacon were good too, but sorry the pancakes and potatoes stood out the best for me. The service was good and the ambiance was small and a little lacking with decor, but as long as the food stays good as it was. I wouldn't care if the whole place had strobe lighting. Hahaha.

    Widewater Grille is exactly the kind of family-owned restaurant every community needs. The food is fresh, homemade, and packed with flavor--from the steak and eggs breakfast to the New York Strip dinner, everything we tried was clearly made with care. Portions are generous and the prices are more than fair, especially considering the quality. What truly sets this place apart is the atmosphere. It's warm, welcoming, and incredibly military friendly. As an active-duty Marine, I appreciated not only the 10% military discount but also the genuine gratitude and respect shown by the staff. It's rare to find a place where you feel both like a valued customer and like family. The weekly specials are a great deal (don't miss the $2 mimosas on the weekend), and the menu is loaded with classic comfort food--from hearty breakfasts to satisfying sandwiches, burgers, and fresh seafood. The kids' menu is also well thought out and affordable, making it perfect for families. Whether you're local or just passing through Stafford, Widewater Grille is absolutely worth the stop. We'll be back often--and bringing friends with us.

    The food was full of flavor and cooked just right. Everything came out quickly and the portions were great. The service was outstanding very friendly and attentive the entire time. The ambiance was cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to sit down and enjoy a meal. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely return!

    Cute and intimate little spot. If you're looking for a calm and relaxing place to enjoy a meal this is the right place. Great customer service.

    I found Widewater Grille due to the Yelp app. Seeing that they serve breakfast - I had to check it out. I visited on a weekday morning. it's a relatively small place on the inside - but there were several open tables. I was advised to sit where ever I wanted. After looking over the menu - I opted for their Country Breakfast: Two eggs (over easy), one biscuit with sausage gravy, breakfast potatoes, and bacon, plus coffee. The coffee is self serve. They offer real refrigerated Half n' Half - not the scary stuff in the single serve containers that does not require refrigeration. The Half n' Half is in a fridge beneath the self serve coffee area. Food came up fairly quickly. The eggs were cooked properly, the sausage gravy actually had sausage flavor, and the bacon was crispy and tasty. The only thing I will ding them on is the finish on the breakfast potatoes - I like a crisp exterior on my breakfast potatoes - these were not that. Coffee was good. Service was good. Paid with Apple Pay. #WidewaterGrille

    Big Country Breakfast

    After passing the Widewater Grill many times, today my husband and I decided to stop. It was about 10:15 in the morning on a Sunday in late November. We were able to walk right in be seated. My husband ordered the "Big Breakfast"pictured and I ordered the Western Omelette with a side of grits. Both breakfasts were very tasty the grits were stand out and very smooth and well seasoned. The Western Omelette was humongous and I had to take half of it home. The caramel latte was delicious. I nursed it for a few hours and enjoyed it immensely. Jeff said the coffee was good, but I didn't have a chance to taste it, it smelled very nice. A young man took our order. He was cordial and brought the food quickly as ordered. The owner was also working he walked by our table to ask how everything was, we told him it was delicious. He also was very nice. It's easy to pass up little places like this on such a big road as route one, but I urge you to give it a try. Widewater Grille a sweet local spot for breakfast or lunch with plenty of parking out back.

    Friendly service. The biscuits and gravy was delicious. The biscuits were homemade. The portion was generous. Military friendly with a 10% discount.

    Friendly, veteran owner and customers. Very clean! Lots of people park in the back so don't let an empty front parking lot discourage you. They serve breakfast until they close at 3pm. They have the BEST biscuits and gravy I've had in 3 counties. I know I'm very picky. Today I had country fried steak breakfast. It was crispy on outside and tender on the inside just perfect. The eggs were fresh, the potatoes were good and he let me substitute a biscuit for the toast. They have great steak, hamburger and sandwiches too. They use honey baked ham on their sandwiches. Delicious. The owners wife makes the grab and go desserts. Pumpkin bread, Brookies, etc all scrumptious too. Support this locally owned little gem!

    Crab Cake Dinner with hush puppies
    Carolyn W.

    Wow! Don't miss this diner....and that could be easy if you blink. This from scratch diner delivers amazing, fresh made food. We enjoyed crab cakes, hush puppies, country fried steak, potato's...serve yourself drinks. They have a nice espresso machine, but I missed my opportunity! They have a small outdoor seating area. We were welcomed by the owner.

    Breakfast burrito
    Carmen L.

    It's not every day you find an unassuming hidden gem--the type that's so unassuming you drive past it when Google Maps says you've arrived. There's some parking out front but there's ample parking in the back. Drive slowly as you approach so you don't miss it. Now onto the food. The menu had a number of breakfast options (they also serve lunch and early dinner), including a small menu for kids. I opted for the breakfast burrito, which comes with scrambled eggs, your choice of protein, cheese, peppers, onions, and mushrooms. The burrito is served with a side of house potatoes, sour cream, and salsa. The potatoes are fresh and you can tell it's all homemade: the seasoning blend and the baby red potatoes are hand cut. My companion got Uncle Richard's breakfast, which came with eggs any style, protein, and French toast or pancakes. Let me tell you about the pancakes: some of the best I've ever tasted. (I asked one of the owners and he said they make their batter from scratch; you can tell and taste the buttermilk!!) The food was just absolutely delicious. Coffee is self-serve. Service was great, and the restaurant is small yet inviting and kept tidy. We will definitely return!

    French Toast

    Quite literally my favorite breakfast place ever. The owner is always working on the floor and engaging with customers. I always get the french toast and the potatoes are so good! This is on my top list of recommendations. It has a small town vibe and great breakfast!

    Th food was great. The owner was nice and courteous. Great little restaurant. Very clean and priced accordingly.

    Food is good but the owner refuse to honor my coupon. It was expired but still good for what I paid for which was 15 dollars.

    As my county wide tour of the ABC stores continues, over the weekend I found myself at yet another…read morelocation to procure some spirits. I know what you are thinking, no I do not truly drink this much however its like when one thing runs out everything runs out at the same time. Which brings be back to yet another ABC location, reserve your judgement please and thank you. The theme is pretty much the same, the store is easy to navigate and you are close to guaranteed to find whatever you are in the mood for. All the favorites or frequently bought liquors are locked up so you have to ask for it. Staff is friendly and ready to assist if need be. Store is always clean and there is plenty of parking.

    I find it hard to believe when I look back on everything that it's been literally 20 years since I…read moremoved here back home to the Boston area. I live there as a kid but then had moved down with my family to the Northern Virginia/DC area. I took this most recent trip to see a friend at a birthday, a major birthday at that. Much like the trip itself, this has convinced me that where I am now is home. There is no place like Boston. So why do I bring this all up? Well, for anybody local reading this it is a little bit of a culture shock to have a state ABC center where you can buy hard liquor and spirits. Here where I live we have a package stores that we could just simply go and buy them that are independently owned and operated, not controlled by the state itself. No for anybody from north of Virginia going down there, the state ABC store is kind of unique experience. You walk in you see all the hard liquors categorized by liquor type rows upon rows of it. They do except out-of-state ideas if anyone is concerned. I found the staff to be friendly, I asked about one specific type of whiskey which is hard to find. They did not have in stock. however, I need to buy a nice bottle of wine which I plan to use to celebrate with family this upcoming Thanksgiving. I can highly recommend this location, and I imagine the other locations are the same standards.
