Restaurants in Crozet

“Great spot to kick back, enjoy the mountains views and relax. The food was amazing and so was the staff. After taking a while to discover it, Bar Botanical will definitely be a regular spot we’ll be visiting frequently.”

“Wonderful wine, quiet and beautiful location. My husband and I enjoyed our picnic lunch on their patio with our sweet dog by our side. We even bought a couple bottles to go. There was an issue with the order but they went above and beyond to correct it quickly. We definitely plan to return!”

“SANDWICHES - Delicious sandwiches! Friendly staff, creative menu, fresh takes on old favorites. Kid friendly options too! Definitely recommend the Turkey Crunch, Ruben, Turkey Rachel, Hot Italian or Spicy Roni. The whole family loved it so much we visited 2 days in a row. We will be back.”

“A family member lives in this complex and we always eat here when we stop by! So much so that we dropped something off at her house yesterday when she wasn't home, ordered food to go, and drove an hour home to eat it! They are always so incredibly nice and accommodating... And the food is legit delicious!”

“11/10 Would recommend tghe TuRBO SAZAE. Best food in crozet, hell charlottesville area yummy tubro sazae was made with care and love. a GENTLE BARRAGE OF FLAVOR!”

“My husband and I experienced a wonderful meal at Restoration in Old Trail. The menu featured Valentine specials offering a variety of choices to appeal to seafood lovers, vegetarians and meat lovers. The tables were festively decorated in red and white accents. The service was excellent and the meal was superbly prepared. We enjoyed oysters Rockefeller, shrimp scampi and seared scallops done to perfection! We highly commend the chef, Elisa, the manager, and the entire staff at Restoration ! Crozet has needed a restaurant of this quality for many years.”

“DO NOT miss the Smoked Kitchen. During a recent "leaf peeping" drive from Richmond, we visited Crozet in time for lunch. First, the location is easy to find and easy to park. Second, they welcome dogs. (A real plus.) But MOST IMPORTANTLY the the food is top notch and the service can't be beat. The pulled pork is the best we've EVER eaten. (I don't use CAPS very often.) Speaking as Virginia/North Carolina customers, that's quite a statement. It's dry, lean and melt in your mouth. Plenty of sauces to choose from if you wish. Absolutely terrific. We bought A POUND to take home. No kidding. The smoked chicken salad sandwich was excellent. And the beer - well, what a nice addition to a great meal.”

“We are in town for the week and this was our first place after a long drive. It was amazing! We ended up getting 3 appetizers and 3 entrees. They were all out of this world! Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality Jessie! Cheers!”

“Great family restaurant that offers real northern style pizzas. They make their own fresh pasta and pizza sauce (unlike competitors canned sauces). subs are made on freshly baked homemade bread! Just yummy!!!”

“Solid beer, solid hangs. The staff is always cool/chill. We frequently strike up conversation with kind strangers.Starr Hill also has a great history in the craft beer/microbrewing industry.”

“My husband and I picked tulips this morning and had a blast! It is late in the season but they still had so many beautiful flowers to pick from. Would highly recommend and we will be doing it again next year!!!”

“Came in hungry and they did not disappoint. The sandwich was fresh, made just how I like it, and the staff was actually really nice. Nothing fancy, just a good, easy experience. I’d come back for sure.”

“The nachos are amazing highly recommended. Amazing with beer. The smash burger is to die for. A must stop for lunch or just an outing. You won’t regret it. Taste just like home!”

“This was our second time eating at Mi Rancho. Delicious authentic Mexican cuisine. Excellent and friendly service. Definitely coming back.”

“Stumbled upon Whistle Stop Grill and the Stoney Creek Freedom Fest this weekend. We had their Maple bacon burger and it was so good we had to get a second one the next day for lunch. I definitely recommend trying.”

“I had a Cortado lightly sweetened with brown sugar cinnamon when I came in here yesterday. You all were trying to decide to go powdered or syrup to sweeten it and I was of no help 😂 Regardless, the barista nailed it and I forgot to tell you all! It was amazing. It can be so hard to find a great cortado.”

“Wonderful employees and ice cream!”

“Jaclyn is an amazing baker and artist! From ordering to designing to pick up, she and her team were a joy!”

“My family has been buying their Pumpkin Bread for all winter holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Years) since the bakery opened (9ish years ago) and started selling their products in Cville where they’re a big hit. It is the best Pumpkin Bread on Earth, full stop.”

“Update: Since posting this review, I have observed improved staffing and morale at the Grit location in Crozet. The coffee is still excellent as usual and the manager always does a great job supporting the employees and providing a positive customer service experience.

Grit ownership and leadership need to address the poor staffing of the Grit location in Old Trail, Crozet.

Today I was in this location for at least 25 minutes: I waited 5-10 minutes for the barista to take my order when I was the only one waiting in line, then I waited another 15 minutes for 2 iced Americanos before checking on the status of my drinks- only to find there were still 3 tickets ahead of mine. At that point I canceled my order and received a refund.

I am a regular customer of Grit- Crozet; however, in recent months the staffing has been terrible. It is sad to see just one barista taking orders and making drinks by herself, who appears overwhelmed and tearful. At one point the tearful barista stepped away in the back to take a moment for herself.

This is no way to treat employees of a Grit location that is quite busy and receives a lot of community business, especially when I see that other Grit locations seem appropriately staffed. This location will only get busier as Crozet residential and commercial development continues.

Grit ownership and leadership- please address this obvious staffing and morale issue at Grit in Crozet. Until then, we will avoid the Crozet Grit location on Sundays and any other days that appear to be poorly staffed.”

“My first thought when I entered Mudhouse was that the vibe is e everything I look for in a coffeehouse. Energetic, and eclectic with high ceilings and plenty of space for community, I immediately felt at home. The coffee and burrito were delicious. I spent hours there with my daughter and will definitely make it a must-stop when I'm in the area again.”

“Literally once a week fave spot. ❤️”
