I typically do not review restaurants until I've eaten there at least three times. For me anyone can have a bad day so I hate to rate someplace poorly on just one visit. But also I like to rate restaurants on consistency. The pod has been nothing but consistent in the best way over the years that we visited. The atmosphere is always awesome. The food is always served fresh, uniquely good and seems like a very good value for the price. Imagine if Starbucks was local, fresher and better. That is the Pod.
I highly recommend trying it, even if you are not a coffee drinker. While I hear that the coffee is excellent, the food and environment are worth a stop every time we are in the area regardless.

I made it just before closing and found nothing to be lacking despite my poor timing. I was happy to find a Monte Cristo on the menu; as delicious as I would have hoped.

My girlfriend and I have been coming here for years and we have never had a bad experience. The coffee is amazing and the food is clean, simple and fresh at decent prices. A breakfast sandwich and coffee would run you about $13. I can't recommend the place enough.

I am a self described coffee house afficionado and a relative newcomer to country life coming out of a big city background. I have found one of the nicest coffee houses ever in Central VA. Located in central Gretna, this place has great food, excellent lattes, great atmosphere, great service and pleasant music. Evidently, this place is run by pros. Anyone traveling State Route 29 must make this a stop for breakfast, lunch or coffee.
