Taste Buds
Whenever we are in the mood for a delicious pizza, we always go to Taste Buds located right on the VA/WV border on Route 11. This has been our go-to spot since we moved to the Winchester area. As with any area, there are plenty of pizza shops to choose from, but we constantly find […]
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 […]
Franklin’s Smokin’ Barnyard
One of the best hidden gems in the Winchester area is definitely Franklin’s Smokin’ Barnyard. As a food truck, his location changes, but for the most part, he is either posted up at Weber’s Nursery on 11 by Rutherford Plaza, or at Solenberger’s Hardware off of I-81 Exit 315 in Winchester. For our stop this […]
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 […]
Snow White Grill
One of the most polarizing restaurants in our local area is the Snow White Grill. The consensus for a long time was that they had phenomenal burgers and fries, but they had very inconvenient and non-intuitive hours, so hungry patrons constantly had to look elsewhere after an evening on the walking mall in downtown Winchester. […]
Sclafani’s NY Bagels
In preparation for the snow event this past weekend, my family stopped in at Sclafani’s NY Bagels in Kernstown, VA (one exit past Winchester on I-81 South) to get some bagels to enjoy over the next few days. Sclafani’s has the feel of a traditional NY bagel shop, with plenty of flavors of bagels and […]
Pack’s Cones-N-More
One of our all time favorite ice cream shops in the Winchester area is Pack’s Ice Cream. They have delicious custard, Dole Whip, and all kinds of crazy ice cream concoctions. Pack’s has multiple physical locations, including shops and carts, throughout the Winchester area, and we are so excited that Pack’s Cones-N-More is located right […]
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 […]
Jin Zhou Gardens
There are a plethora of Asian restaurants in the Winchester area, and we wanted to try something different for dinner the other night. We had noticed a place on Route 7 called Jin Zhou Gardens and decided to give it a try. We got a handful of items with our pick up order. Price 💲💲 […]
Granny’s
One of our go-to breakfast spots in Winchester is Granny’s. Owned by a family friend, this little hole in the wall is one of the best restaurants in Frederick County. We have been for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but they are most known for their delicious breakfasts. Last weekend, we had a chance to go […]
