Foot of the Mountain Cafe

Came after our time at Natural Bridge and we LOVED everything we tried. Fried Sampler was so tasty! We tried 3 different burgers, each unique and delicious. We had no room for dessert but we ordered some to take home. We figured if the meal was so good, the dessert would have to follow suit. DEFINITELY recommend stopping in for a delicious meal

The food is amazing! My husband and I stopped here after visiting Virginia Safari and we are definitely coming back! The hospitality is outstanding, the owner is friendly and kind! The food is made with love, you can just taste the freshness as well! I will say I even liked the healthy options of gluten free buns and black bean burgers for someone like myself who struggles with digesting. I loved the mountains view and that there were options of spots where you can eat. If you’re thinking of the place to eat this is it right here!

We had our wedding reception at Foot of the Mountain Cafe on October 1st 2022. Since we live in North Carolina, all of our coordination was done remotely with the exception of a few in-person meetings with Brian. The week prior to our wedding they had a huge issue with the restaurant being closed down, but Brian and the landlord worked diligently to be sure they were open in time for our reception. I cannot say enough good things about Brian and his staff! They were incredibly accommodating, the service was impeccable, and the food was amazing. Because we only had about 35 people, we were able to order directly off the menu so everyone could choose what they wanted. My son and his wife are vegans and Brian was even able to provide them with a delicious vegan dinner option. Even though it was in the middle of Hurricane Ian, we were able to use the outdoor patio which was enclosed with heaters. Working with Brian was a dream and I would highly recommend using him and his restaurant to host your event!

Was in town sightseeing at the natural bridge. OMG so good! Only 15 minutes away and in such a pretty area! Got the crab dip and I got the Emily burger and everything was good! Friendly people that work there too. Definitely check it out if you're in the area!

This is one of those places that will forever impact your taste buds. Everything they do, or mostly everything they do is made in house. From their entrees to their desserts to their dressings. By far the best wings I’ve ever consumed in my life, Asian zing is the best wing and I’m willing to bet anybody. It’s ran by great people and have great service. This is a must stop for everybody that I have brought here from out of town

Busy but cheerful, plenty of options in the menu. Fried green tomatoes were good, my salad was good, hubby opted for the shrimp spaghetti but was disappointed at the lack of sauce and high butter content, although he loved the broccoli and cheese soup.

Traveled to Buchanan for a Sunflower Festival and decided to try a local restaurant. We chose Foot of the Mountain and we are SOOOOO GLAD we did! Don’t let the appearance on the outside fool you! The menu was amazing and we could tell that we picked the right spot for lunch. The service as excellent. Wait staff was every polite, and the food!!!!!! It was all delicious and we will definitely be back when we are in the area. Good work guys! You are putting out delicious food and a wonderful experience. I had the Outback Burger and Chesapeake Bay Waffle Fries (pic attached).

The customers service was fantastic, Mallory was our server and made sure we had everything we needed and never an empty glass! The food was good portions and the homemade Peanut Butter Pie with Ice Cream was decadent! The selection of local beers/wine and mixed drinks was nice with several great choices. We will definitely stop in again.

This place is great! The waitress is very friendly, the food is wonderful & the atmosphere fun. We eill be back in the future.

I was skeptical at first but pleasantly suprised with the food! I loved the southwest turkey wrap and the baked macaroni was NEXT LEVEL! The salt and vinegar waffle fries were very good and my family also loved their food. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the mozzarella sticks, they were basic frozen mozzarella sticks so nothing special about them. I will be back.
