“Shout out to Detonia for her amazing service! She went out of her way to assist me with a food order that was incorrect (helping a new teammate!) Unfortunately, the order ended up being made incorrectly again but I was so hungry by the time I got home that I that I ate it anyway. I was disappointed to have paid extra for extra cheese but received barely a sprinkle. I had to really inspect it to see if any cheese was on it at all. I order this item regularly and knew I needed to pay for the extra cheese and have always received an ample portion on my previous orders. :(”

The manager here, Clayton, gave us 25 free breakfast sandwiches for us to serve to a local police department to show them appreciation, and then he threw in a bunch of free apple pies on top of the sandwiches we asked for! He made the process of coordinating the order seamless. He was very generous and they had the food ready at 6:30 AM right on time for us. Thank you to the manager Clayton! I highly recommend giving your business to this McDonalds!”

I was a bit worried because when I got an email back it wasn't exactly confirmed so I had to email and make sure it was able to be made. But fast responses and quality work. The bakery smells amazing when I went in to pick up her cake and the cashier was so sweet!”

“Bob is an incredible GM, and helped me today with a food order situation with the most pleasant care and support. Thanks Bob for making this restaurant a great one!”

“We met family here for lunch. There's ample parking. The building is really cool on the outside and laid out really well on the inside. They weren't busy and we were greeted quickly.

“You can’t go wrong at Klines! The flavors are wonderful and the people are friendly and kind! Always service with a smile! Very grateful they are in Lynchburg!”

“I work right across the street at Express, so I’ve basically made it my life mission to “quality check” their food (you’re welcome 😌). And let me tell you… ✅ Always on point with my lunch ✅ Always friendly — like “hey bestie, here’s your food!” energy ✅ AND… most importantly… 🥤 They already know to have my Pepsi ICE COLD and ready like it’s part of a VIP package. I don’t even gotta ask anymore — that’s next-level service right there. At this point, I’m not a customer… I’m practically family 😂 ⭐ 10/10, would cross the street again ⭐”

“Great, homemade food. I had the meatloaf and I’m not usually in favor of a tomato gravy, but this was DELICIOUS. Everything was fresh and HOT, plus it was great meeting Val at the end of our meal.”

“Love going to the Timberlake location when Cheyenne is there, I always have a great experience when she’s there! Samantha is great too! Cheyenne and her crew served us today!”

“3 dinners so far, and 3 times I was super satisfied!

I've tried many options from the menu over the few times I've been here and they never disappoint. All the dishes are really fresh, I highly recommend trying their sizzling steaks (careful - plates are super hot!) and fajitas. The dish selection is large enough to make sure you'll not get bored, but not artificially inflated by offering 20 different burritos, as some other places do.

The place is cozy with a chill vibe. The staff is very friendly and responsive, I've never waited more than a minute for someone to approach. If any dish is unavailable, they offer some amazing recommendations for substitutes.

I've even came here with my French friend and it was the first time he didn't say that France does it better, which basically is an equivalent of a Michelin star.

My go to Mexican place in Lynchburg, especially for dining-in. Highly recommended.”

“Great menu and D E L I C O U S rolled ice cream!!”

“Unique pizzas with a warm pub atmosphere!”

“Joe Bean is awesome. When I lived in Lynchburg I used to get it all the time. Now I live an hour away so I'll make a trip once or twice a month to get it. I highly recommend. Also, wish they would open one around me lol.”

“I recently ate at Millie's Living Cafe for the first time and it was phenomenal!! I got one of the rice bowls and a gluten-free chocolate chip muffin, both were not only extremely delicious but extremely healthy! It is difficult to find food on the go that has wholesome ingredients and that also caters to common food sensitivities and allergies. I will definitely be back, thank you for your outstanding service to this community!!”

“Food is AMAZING!! 10/10 recommend!!”

“So good! Very flavorful tacos! Had to order another round it was so good!”

“Food was wonderful. Our server did not check on us after the meal was served. She also delivered our checks before we were finished and gave us no opportunity to order desert. So we paid our bill and left.”

“The food is freshly prepared and the proprietors are hard working and friendly. Best place in Lynchburg for Chinese cuisine.”

“Food is always fresh and good. Service is always fast and friendly.”

“If you told me theres a place where the workers make it seem like you are family and make very good food that wont make you feel bloated afterwords I would've said you are lying until I experienced it first hand with Barbara and her lovely crew.

I had a double cheeseburger, Medium Fries and a large drink + tip = $22.

You cant tell me that's not a steal. Worth every penny I paid”

“Audra was our Waitress and she’s always awesome 🤩”

“Customer Service and food was very pleasing I would recommend their service if you want a hot and ready meal that you'll enjoy....that to you for making me feel appreciated as a customer ?”

We’ll be back!”

“This was our first time visiting and we will definitely be back. The workers were super patient with our kids as they picked out what they wanted in their bowls, even letting them taste a few things to help them decide. The ribs were 10/10. Highly recommend!”

“My favorite place for shaved ice in town! They have a lot of flavor options! The owner has always been very kind. It’s also kid friendly and so fun! Highly recommend!”

“I am new to Lynchburg and did not know this was here. I have passed the building which looks sort of like a circus tent, but while searching breakfast location near me, (after the normal breakfast time), this cafe showed up.
I was surprised to see that the cafe was inside this unusual building.
Big toy and book store that I would like to wander through when I have some time, and to the back is this little seating area, blocked off and a counter with coffee and tea. The menu was not typical breakfast but our sandwich selections were outstanding. The flavor combination of the Turkey, cheese, sprouts, apple, avocado plus natural mustard with the seeds, (could be missing something) such a great sandwich. Good coffee and fruit with a giant oatmeal cookie to go.
I recommend and will come again.”

“Wings are top tier. I would eat here again.”

“I took my daughter for the first time on the way home from school yesterday afternoon. My daughter got the pink mermaid fizz and I got a hot sweet and salty. My daughter loved hers and mine was also good. I would mention that the drinks are very sweet so if you like more of a coffee taste then you may want to get less sweetener in it. Service was also great and fast. Laura helped me with my order and Becka talked to me at the register. Both very kind and helpful young ladies. The girls inside seemed to be having a great time at work which is always nice to see as well. Would come here again.”
