Great food, good prices, friendly staff and one of the cleanest restaurants I've ever been in
Love this place! Usually go on the weekends for breakfast, but I've had some of their sandwiches/subs also, their biscuits are wonderful! Restaurant is clean, staff is always friendly with a positive attitude and kitchen is quick with orders. I do wish they offered fresh fruit though. I will definitely keep coming back and I would recommend this place to everyone I know!I've been stopping by more lately to get food for kayaking trips, so glad I was able to pick up some fresh cut watermelon & breakfast to go! I got a Bacon Egg and cheese on a croissant and it was BEYOND DELICIOUS! Ya DAVE!!!
I love this place for some good breakfast including... biscuits, eggs, sausage, sausage gravy, bacon... basically any great hot breakfast. Their burgers are big and amazing. And, for a Southern place they make a damn good Philly sammy. They make a pretty stellar Rueben. They are pretty fast with their orders as well. Try this place for all 3 square meals of the day. Folks passing by on the way to Lake Anna should stop in for a treat. If you're a regular Dave will learn your name and order... which is pretty darn cool and not seen too much anymore. Summary: Awesome place for locals and tourists.
Fantastic place!!Great food, Great service, Great people..Small town values & Big time taste...Probably the best bacon cheeseburger you will ever stuff in your mouth & the sausage gravy is better than what grandma made, (Shh.. don't tell!!)If you're looking for fancy schmancy food, keep walking... If you want real food with real taste, stop in & check them out.PS. The deviled eggs...wow!!
Best.Cheeseburger.Ever. Well... at least in a very long time. After learning today was my first visit, they happily explained their menu and highlighted customer favorites. Burgers are popular and I found out why. Amazing! Cooked perfectly to my requested "medium" temperature the loaded cheeseburger exceeded all expectations. I brought my to-go order home where my kids helped me finish it. They're already asking me to take them to Dave & Phriends.Great lunch stop! Next visit I'll try the Philly Cheesesteak.
Was working in the area and wanted something close by. Found on maps and decided to give it a shot. Bacon burger, deviled eggs and fries were absolutely fantastic! Fries are thick and extra crunchy. I think they have a batter coating on them like you'd get at a ballpark. Burgers were cooked great with kaiser rolls, fresh toppings and loaded up with bacon. I cannot say enough about having deviled eggs as a side with bacon! Holy smokes were those absolutely a delight. The owner is engaging with the customers and the staff very friendly. Clean place with nice tables and chairs for dining in. Cannot wait to come back to try more! If you're in the area for breakfast or lunch I'd absolutely recommend you stop by to say hi and grab bite.
Made to order burgers-fresh food, plenty of choices. Friendly service! Nice little spot half a dozen tables.
Dave’s is our favorite local breakfast. We’re happy to have such an awesome place in town!
