Holly's Diner was one of the highlights of our visit to Charlottesville. Walking in felt like stepping into another era—in the best possible way. It's the kind of place that feels authentic from the moment you arrive.

The food was outstanding. I had the pulled pork with collard greens and cast-iron cornbread, and every bite was delicious. Our server mentioned that they make everything in-house—even the butter—which perfectly...

After a show at the arena I had missed dinner and was starving. Holly's came in to save the day! The had live music inside and they were really fun but my ears were already ringing from the concert so I waited out back in their outside seating. I had a BBQ chicken wrap and brussel sprouts. The sprouts had more oil than I'd have expected but everything tasted good and I certainly wasn't disappointed with my choice to visit.

We had a great meal at Holly’s. Hubby and I split a burger and the Reuben. Both were really delicious as were the fries. They were also served with a fresh green salad. Good prices for Charlottesville. The inside dining area is nice and open—we didn’t go during one of their events so it was very quiet. Only downside is no designated parking, but it’s Belmont, so parking on the street is to be expected.
