“Great people. Wonderful food.”

“A wonderful stop along the Virginia Creeper Trail!

Old Alvarado Station is the perfect place to pause, relax, and soak in the beauty of southwest Virginia. I enjoyed an ice cream while sitting on one of the swings overlooking the South Holston River—a simple pleasure made even better by the peaceful scenery.

The riverside gazebo offers a quiet place to sit, enjoy the view, or have a picnic before continuing your ride. Whether you're cycling the Virginia Creeper Trail or simply exploring the area, this is a scenic stop that's well worth taking your time to enjoy.

I'll be sharing photos of the beautiful river views, the gazebo, and the swings that made this such a memorable break. A relaxing little gem along an already incredible trail.”

“This little gem is tucked away in a mini strip mall behind the Shell gas station. Tasty Mexican food, full bar and a laid back atmosphere. Nice to have little eateries like this nearby.”

“Took a shot!!!! So I was apprehensive about going here from the pizza photo on Google it did not look good at all. I walked in and the place was empty which I was starting to be nervous about my choice. They may want to change that cover photo for the cheese pizza. All the reviews look to be over couple years so I ignored any negative ones. Ordered Pep. Pizza and Calzone Deluxe and it was VERY good! Will order again maybe dine in next time and try another items or two.”

“The young man at the pick up window tonight had exceptional customer service skills! I didn’t catch the fellas name but he was maybe the kindest drive thru worker I’ve ever interacted with”

“This Wendy's is the best buy far. The burgers are so great, the fries just right. If u ever rolling through Glade Springs, Virginia Exit 29 stop enjoy the food.”

“Yummy Hawaiian pizza style I’ll buy more soon”

“Staff was very quickly attentive and courteous. The resturant area was clean and the sandwitch center appeared to be clean and well kept. The food was good, and pricing was about the same as any other Subway.”

“I usually don't post reviews, but I had to for this place! Stopped in late the other night and was glad to see they still take trucker orders through the mobile app after 10. Just walk up to the window and they’ll get you taken care of. Had a pretty good-sized order, and a worker Zack went out of his way to make sure everything was right. The blonde manager was nice too, seemed like the crew liked working with each other. Great service all around. I’ll definitely be stopping back next time I’m rolling through Virginia!! 🤘”

“I ordered a breakfast bagel deal through the app ($3) 9:45am on a Thursday. I only go to McDonald’s for the breakfast sandwiches. Ok. The breakfast bagel was fine. Seeing the bad reviews about how long it takes to prepare food I waited in my truck, not an issue. But I will give it a -1 star;

-1 star: I said thanks and both the man and the woman just looked at me. I know it’s probably a dumb reason to give a -1 star but it just doesn’t feel human when I catch them talking to each other smiling but then they stare at me with a blank face when I say “thanks” . If you’re reading this for some reason you know the world has only gotten darker and more evil over time. I just wish the human element is still there. Not even using profanity right now in expressing myself, just honest. I want to see more humanity in people”
