First Bite at The Trolley Express Café – A Cozy New Spot in Shenandoah Junction, WV
If you’re rolling through Kearneysville and craving something warm, toasty, and totally worth pulling over for, let us introduce you to The Trolley Express Café — a repurposed vintage trolley parked right next to the ever-popular Black Dog Coffee Company. We swung by for breakfast and caffeine and left happy, full, and ready to spread […]
Old Town Diner
The Old Town Diner, located at 158 N Loudoun Street in Winchester, Virginia, is a cozy spot nestled in the heart of Old Town Winchester on the Walking Mall. They offer classic American comfort food favorites, with a casual dining experience. They serve breakfast and drinks Wednesday through Sunday each week. This was our first […]
Paladin Woolen Mill – P2
One of my favorite places to meet up with some girlfriends for dinner and drinks is at Paladin Woolen Mill or P2 in Clearbrook, Virginia. It’s a contemporary space with a diverse menu featuring a range of appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches, and entrées, and plenty of cocktails, beers, and wines. Although it hosts a long […]
Charlotte’s Café
Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat at a restaurant. There is nothing better than finding a cozy breakfast place to get a fresh, homemade meal. We recently discovered Charlotte’s Café in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. Although they serve breakfast and lunch, we stopped for breakfast. This is about an hour drive for us, so […]
Panagiotas Taste of Greece
Greek food is one of my favorite types of food, so I was beyond thrilled when I saw a new Greek place was opening down the road from us in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. Panagiotas Taste of Greece started as a food truck, and I had the opportunity to try it a few times before at […]
Bolivar Bread Bakery
I recently stumbled across a local staple in our community that I had yet to visit in the many years I’ve lived in the area – Bolivar Bread Bakery. I love the Harper’s Ferry area but am sometimes deterred from going because it’s not always easy to find parking. (Disclaimer: If you have never been […]
The Venue at Brix27 – Sunday Brunch
We were recently invited to attend the soft opening of The Venue at Brix27’s Sunday brunch. This newly renovated space will be used for different events, but they will be hosting all-you-can-eat Sunday brunches, a much-needed activity for our area. Rather than driving out of state to find a state-of-the-art brunch spot, we can enjoy […]
Taqueria Guadalajara
One of our favorite local Mexican restaurants is Taqueria Guadalajara. It is the place that my husband and I consider to be the most authentic Mexican restaurant in the area. My husband is first generation Mexican American, and since we’ve been together, I’ve been lucky enough to be exposed to the delicious food and culture […]
Cardinal Coffee
I am always on the hunt for new coffee places around me, and I recently discovered Cardinal Coffee, which just opened in the summer of 2024. Located on the road travelling from Martinsburg to Shepherdstown (Route 45), it is a permanent coffee trailer located in the parking lot of a local home décor store. I […]
The Blue Moon Café
The Blue Moon Café holds a special place in my heart. During my time at Shepherd University, I probably passed by this little hole-in-the-wall restaurant every day. It was often a place I would swing by for a quick lunch, either to sit down with friends or to grab a to-go wrap. As I graduated […]
