Very no-frills stripped down home cooking type place. Very small menu and limited choices for those with dietary restrictions. That said, a pescetarian, a vegetarian and a gluten-free pescetarian all had filling meals to wrap up a backpacking weekend at Dolly Sods full of freeze dried boil-in-a-bag meals. We were skeptical as we pulled in, but in the end we all left happily stuffed.
Almost a 3 star place but what kicks it up to 4 stars is the little stuff that's made in house as opposed to from a can.
The pickled beets and eggs, sweet potato casserole, coleslaw, half-wheat/half-white rolls were among those little made in house flourishes that make this a 4 star place.
Service was very friendly and helpful. Prices were very reasonable for quality and quantity of the food. Homemade desserts and tasty soft serve ice cream are the icing on the cake. Â Sure beats the pants off of another Clif bar and powdered gatorade....
There are like only a few restaurants really close to the b & b we were staying at. Â This is not cracker barrel, and it doesn't promise to be. It's good food like if you went to your friend's house for dinner. We had the $6.95 spagetti and meatball special with garlic toast and salad. Â For the price it was fine and the service was friendly so we were pretty happy.
Review Source:This place was awesome. Even though when we walked in it  felt like the record scratched... um maybe they ain't never seen a china girl before, just kidding bad joke. Anyways it could have been because it was 7am and I looked like I just rolled outta bed in snow gear.
It literally feels like walking into your Paw-Paw's house and I instantly felt like I was on my best behavior. Cutting out my sailor talk, not kicking my feet back on the bench across from me and responding to the single grandmotherly looking waitress with "yes ma'ams" and an excessive amount of "please" and "thank you's".
Now let's get down to the good stuff... and when I say good stuff I mean their delicious, meticulously put together breakfasts. OH. MAH. LAWD. This place hit the spot. We got Doug's bowl (a clusterf*ck of everything amazing). Biscuits, sausage gravy, eggs, and homefries all slapped together perfectly. And a western omelet. One of the most beautifully cooked ones I've ever seen. No really, it was so perfect it almost looked fake. Photoshoot fresh if you will. Ya know for you food photographers.... Best part was the bill was about $15.
I can't wait to stop off in here again on my next WVA adventure!
You should too :)
If you're looking for comfort food along the trip between the Washington DC/Baltimore areas and the increasingly yuppified George Washington National Forests, the Monongahela National Forest, and the Potomac Highlands, Wardensville may be a nice place to stop along Route 55 coming out of I-81, almost exactly 100 miles from Washington DC. Â There are a couple of antique shops worth the visit, a gas station, and several restaurants. Â One of my favs is the Kac-a-Pon, a no-nonsense, hearty comfort food eatery.
From meat loaf, to roast beef, turkey with dressing, and outstanding home made desserts, the place is worth the stop. Â Don't expect the world because you won't get it. Â It is a genuine country place where you will get good food and friendly service in generous portions. Â The ambiance is country, the clientele is country, and that's not a pejorative, it is what the traveler is looking for in that part of West Virginia.
I've been there several times now and have never had a bad dish. Â As a matter of fact, they were more than generous by making chicken especially for my Black Lab who was sitting outside wondering where his dad had gone. Â
Overall, great, reasonable, tasty food.
