Swiftwater General Store - New River

Wonderful hidden gem of a store. Lots of groceries available as well as toiletries. Hot and cold food ready to grab or your can order food. Everyone we talked to there was so nice and friendly. You would have thought they’d known us forever. We ordered breakfast and it was delicious. Make sure to stop and check it out!

This is such an adorable place. We got take out (which if you do order by phone because it's cheaper) and thought the breakfast food was amazing! Simple, yet clean and tasty. Highly recommend. Staff is really sweet too.

Stopped here because it was the closest to us at the time of traveling through the area. So glad that we did! The food is simply delicious & they are a really friendly establishment. There isn't a ton of seating inside but we snagged a seat. Seems to be pretty popular with the locals from what I can tell. We will be back through this area many times in the next several months and I will make a point to stop by this spot as many times as I can!

We have traveled through New River Gorge so many times and never made the stop, but this trip was different. (More to come) But after quick research we came across Swiftwater General Store. The reviews were great, but truly they don't begin to show how amazing it is. It truly is like a modern day general store. Simple but amazing. When we walked in the general manager greeted us with the biggest smile. He suggested the brisket sandwich that was smoked for 18 hours. It was DELISH!!! We got a couple hot dogs, fries, pasta salad, and these incredible cookies from this wonderful place. We have made so many stops, but this one had my heart. It's what restaurants should be. Food done well and the staff that are just good people. He didn't mind our crazy and the kids steam rolling on it. He made us feel like we were at home and it was one of the best meals we have had out in ages. Those cookies just made the last leg of the trip the best!

If you visit New River Gorge area don't miss it!!!

Great place for a quick bite or to pick up a few things you may have forgotten. Super friendly, fast service, and easy access off rt 19. If you are passing by, stop, take a break, and enjoy the atmosphere and good food.

Absolutely an amazing place to stop when in town. My son and I were just there for Bridge Day, and stopped in to grab pepperoni rolls, which were delicious. My son had school work to do, and they had wi-fi, so we stopped in so he could work. They were extremely accommodating to him allowing him to stay and get his school work done. We purchased several different food items over the course of our stay, and all were delicious. Please take time to stop in and see what true hospitality is like!! We can’t wait to stop by when we return to The New!!

Great breakfast and lunch options. They also sell some gift ideas plus drinks, snacks, pet food, and other odd n ends you may need to grab real quick. People who work here are alway friendly.

Wonderful Classic BLT great people and a good time.

Please, stop what you're doing and go here! But leave plenty of time to savor the yummy food, the kind people, and a good cup of local coffee (I recommend the dark roast). I had a BLT that was almost too pretty to eat. My husband has the meatball sub - very good. We split a pecan Danish. Great little shop with fun stuff, too. We stopped here by chance to wait out a rain storm (on our motorcycle), but next time we'll make Swiftwater General Store a destination ride!

Great merchandise but I have to say.....THE WORST HOT DOG CHILI I'VE EVER ATTEMPTED TO EAT. I didn't know you could make a terrible toasted bun hot dog 🤷‍♂️
