The Standard Eatery

It is refreshing to come back to this community after years and be surprised by the positive changes that have occurred in this community since I left. The Standard is one of those changes that I will be frequenting for years to come. Get the Ruben and sit on the front porch soaking in all of the clean country air while drinking a cold beer and chatting with the friendly staff. Nothing could be better.

Quite possibly the best burger I have ever had the good fortune to wrap my lips around!  Flavorful, juicy, perfect bun & toppings.  Lovely relaxing atmosphere, kid friendly (even the kid mac n cheese was the real deal with lots of yummy cheese), good selection of libations, amazing hummingbird cake for dessert, great staff... This place is more than worth a little side trip off 33 into Standardsville.  It's a shame they are only open for dinner.  Dont miss it!

We stumbled upon this little place after taking a wrong turn at the end of a long road trip.  The menu wasn't so large that you could not decide but the choices were diverse and the menu items were inventive while using local and seasonal foods.  They had an excellent selection of local beer to accompany the burger I ordered.  The staff was super friendly as were the other patrons eating there.  We enjoyed the food as much as the fun conversation.  I would definitely make this a stop on your way through VA.
