Great food, beer, & service. Go there at least once a week. Specials baked steak & prime rib are fantastic. Hard to find better salads or fries. Best wings in WV!

Great place to come and have a meal, atmosphere is relaxed, server was outstanding! Food was definitely some of the best. We felt like our server was focused on providing the best experience.

My coworkers and I stopped by The Old Main Cafe for lunch, and we were absolutely thrilled with the experience. This place is a gem, and the prices are incredibly affordable, especially for the quality you get!

​I decided to try the Build Your Own Burger, and it was cooked perfectly medium rare. I topped it with ketchup, mustard, mayo, provolone, and sautéed peppers and onions—it was one of the best burgers I've had in ages.

​My sides were just as great: the curly fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned, and the cup of cabbage soup was warm, comforting, and full of flavor.

​Honestly, everything we ordered was amazing, and the staff was great—attentive and friendly. Highly recommend stopping here for a delicious and budget-friendly meal!

Delicious food, great service, amazing atmosphere. We showed up with a party of 12 and still got seated, checked on, order in, and food to table was amazingly fast in the middle of the lunch rush! Could not have been a better first impression of a place

I’m on a mission to find the best wings in southern WV. They are in top five. Will need more “research.”

Our family of 5 ate here this afternoon. This was our 2nd time. First time everything was excellent.Today was a completely different experience. The hostess was very friendly when she seated us. It took our waitress a little while to come take our order for drinks and an appetizer after we had been seated. My seat was facing the door and could see people coming and going. The wait time for our appetizer was unusually high. The waitress never smiled or seemed friendly. We ended up waiting way over an hour for our order. I saw people who had arrived after us, get served and then leave before we ever got our meal. We didn’t have an opportunity to ask about the excessive wait time because our waitress did not check on us regularly. The food was good. The service was really bad. I doubt I will ever return.
I have read several reviews on this restaurant. There doesn’t seem to be any response to good or bad reviews. That’s a shame and a missed opportunity to make it right on the bad reviews. I really enjoy giving local small businesses my business. Oh well.

Drove 45 minutes to eat here and was looking forward to trying it out. Food was decent. The service was not good at all. The server kyndra checked on us once or twice the entire two hours we waited, refills were hard to come by. Other tables with different waitresses came and went in the time it took to get our food with similar sized parties. She was not very friendly and never acknowledged the long wait. We even saw another table she was supposed to take care of, get seated and they never were even asked for their drinks and left due to the lack of service. Very doubtful we will come back. Experience would have likely been much better with a different server

Went to eat here this afternoon with my family and after placing an order we wait over an hour to receive our food while people who came in at the same time or after us were served and left. A large party came in at the same time as us and they were all served and boxing up leftovers before we got our food. Our waitress Kyndra checked on us once throughout and was not friendly. We had to ask another waitress for refills because our waitress never came back until the food was ready. We were not apologized to for the long wait and were told the kitchen was backed up despite other people continuing to get their food. The food was good, the service was terrible. Very disappointed as I was so excited to eat here.

The food was ok but my food got cold & the slaw was warm. They thought we only ordered 1 meal but we ordered 2. So mine was just sitting there while they made my husband's food. If the food was hot & the slaw was cold & the fries wasn't hard or soggy it would've been much better. We wanted to try something different but I think I've already made my mind up not to be back.

Food is good, service is good. During meal times there is generally a wait but it isn't long. It's loud inside.
