Love supporting small businesses! This one doesn’t disappoint. Friendly owner takes your order and delivers a delicious home cooked meal. Sandwiches were full of flavor. The potato salad was loaded! The ginger ale was perfect for a warm day. This wasn’t like fast food. It was delicious fast home cooked food! Stop by and see for yourself. You won’t regret it.

So happy I discovered this place today. The chicken salad croissant and the tea are both delicious. Love the setup of the drive thru and the staff were so friendly.

Driving thru all the way from Massachusetts and stopped her for breakfast and we absolutely loved it. Very solid spot.

I cant say enough about this place. It must be like the Tardis from Dr. Who. Bigger on the inside, because their selection is a beautiful balance of hot, cold, sweet and savory. I had the cuban and its was the best sandwich hands down I’ve ever had. My mother has the biscuits and gravy, again, flawless. The depth of flavor in everything we tried reminded me of international influence while remaining true to southern charm. We went back for dessert and coffee. I will absolutely be going back and recommending it to friends and family. The people there were super friendly and helpful. Amazing food experience and highly recommended.

Delicious! Highly recommend! If you are looking for homemade food and an alternative to fast food, this is it! We had the breakfast burrito and corn dog bites along with coffee and everything was wonderful. We received little muffins to go with our coffee. We felt like we had homemade food from a friend's house. Definitely going back!

We went back! Now we can also say the egg, cheese bacon croissant and philly cheesesteak panini were delicious! If you like chai, you have to try the Chaider! They have gluten-free bread.

This place is great. I was traveling through Bristol and needed an early breakfast. Found the Cast Iron Cafe on Google Maps. Open at 6am; excellent menu at a fair price; friendly, prompt service. The breakfast bacon/egg/cheese croissant sandwich was perfect as was the mocha latte. You won’t be disappointed. Take out only, so be advised. Wish we had a CIC near where I live.

THIS is the place to stop by & support! We were driving through the area and didn't want the same ol' fast food you can get anywhere else. We're SO glad we did! We ordered the chicken salad with spring mix lettuce sandwich & my husband had a half sweet tea and half unsweetened tea. The chicken salad was fresh & delicious and the tea almost had a floral taste...so yummy! Reasonably priced, too! Great service with a smile! Certainly coming back for REAL FOOD MADE LOCAL! 💖

It's a drive through or order outside at the window. They have one picnic table if you decide to stay on the property.

I stopped by this little drive through yesterday morning and got a chocolate cherry hot latte and biscuits w/ gravy and they were so tasty. Chatted with the lady at the window for a minute. Eat local y'all! Drive on by that BoJa line and get some real fresh made food made by a local small business! 🙌

This place was everything! We came from out of state, probably staying about 20 minutes from here. I read the reviews and of course knew I had to try it out. That’s why I have to leave one too. The croissant and bagel sandwich were perfect and hot which is what you needed in this 30° weather. I got an iced spiced caramel macchiato latte and already knew it was gonna be a hit because the color was spot on. I’m picky about my coffee and this was the best coffee i’ve had my entire week stay. My son already had breakfast before but the side of bacon is exactly what he wanted. They even gave us a sample of their muffin of the day which was a plus for me (currently carrying baby #2). I didn’t think i’d like it when the guy told us what it was but on our ride back to the condo I already knew I will be coming back to get a dozen later today. Service was fast (i ordered online 10 minutes prior), everyone was super nice and the cafe itself was very cute (it’s giving all the small town feels). We will be making this our go to spot for all our visits to Bristol.

Let me start by saying if you put a sign on your building that advertises biscuits and gravy in NE Tenn and SW Virginia……you better be backing it up…….well these guys and gals nailed it. Some of the best I have had around here…..service is fast, staff super friendly, and the food/coffee is on point. For breakfast/lunch and now supper look no further. I’m hooked. I just started working up here at a business nearby and this is going to be in my regular routine.

Btw the muffin with coffee was a fantastic bonus. They have earned my business and more. Thanks yall see you again soon!

Employees have always been welcoming and willing to answer questions. My favorite is their all day biscuits and gravy.
