“First time stopping at this location. There were no issues. Went through the drive thru. Order was accurate exactly as ordered. Everyone we interacted with was very nice and friendly. The food was great as you'd expect from Bojangles.“

“I love going to Chip & Jo’s!! It feels like you’re taking a step back in time (in a great way)! You seat yourself when a table opens up—you better hurry because they fill up quick lol The food is delicious, the staff is so kind and attentive and the prices are unbeatable for such a good deal!! I’m always pleased when I go!“

“I recently ate at this location and was so impressed by the freshness of the food, the service from employees and the cleanliness of the dining room. I don't often eat at Bojangles, or fast food in general, mainly because increasing prices don't often match the service or quality of food, but this was an exception, and I'll gladly be back. Great job, Vinton Bojangles!“

“On July 27,2025 Schaeffer Memorial Baptist Church in Christiansburg, VA was the host of the annual joint worship service with Cambria Baptist Church. The 3pm service consisted of Cambria Baptist choir singing and blessing the congregation with beautiful songs. The Pastor of CBC delivered a powerful message of Christian unity. After the service SMB provided a delicious and tasty dinner.

Schaeffer Memorial Baptist Church had purchased over eight (8) pounds of pork bbq from Due South BBQ. The BBQ was a hit. Everyone spoke about how much they enjoyed the tender delicious bbq. Folks wanted to know where SMB had purchased the BBQ.
Folks raved about how tender, lean and tasty this BBQ was. Everyone throughly enjoyed the BBQ from Due South BBQ. I highly recommend Due South for the delicious food, desserts and the atmosphere is amazing. The new owners of 2 years have really taken Due South to a new level. In my opinion it’s the best BBQ in the Roanoke, NRV and Southwest Virginia. I highly recommend Due South BBQ. It’s definitely delicious 😋“
