The Blue Ridge Diner - Boone

We often stop for a meal in FRG because it has consistently good food, clean the service is excellent. We also appreciate the large prayer list in the kitchen, visible from the dining area. This shows that they take care of their community customers. I wish this place wasn't home for two hours. However, we are looking for excursions on our Blue Ridge Parkway environment if possible. Thanks BR Diner!

I love diners and this is a great one! Brightly lit and cheery its a great space to eat their comfort food. The meatloaf, blackeyes, mac and cheese and mashed potatoes were quite good. Hushpuppies were terrific! Busy, smiling servers. Delicious dessert offerings. Full of local working folks, a sure sign of good food and happiness. They actually have a whiteboard that has an active prayer list on it. You can tell these Girls care about their community. Some outside seating available. Despite costs rising (see photo) their costs are very reasonable. Plenty of parking.

Driving through Blue Ridge Parkway is an amazing experience but the best part of the trip was when I visited this place. Is a small place, nothing fancy but you get much more than food! People who saw me walked in welcomed me and immediately it was like if I entered a family gathering. The staff was amazing, the locals talked to me like we have known for years. Is a place where the same people go every day and know each other. I ordered a double bacon cheeseburger and a large coffee. When I got the bill I was shocked and asked the nice employee if she was charging me for the cheeseburger too. She said yes and I felt so bad because it was so cheap : . The hamburger was super good and so were the fries, both my dog and I truly enjoyed it. Going to this place made my day!!

I've driven right past the Blue Ridge Diner many times and never found the time to go in and today that was proven to be a mistake. I set out to eat lunch there for the first time and I'm happy I did. I had the special, country fried steak with gravy, mashed potatoes and black-eyed peas. The portion was huge, almost too much, the steak was crispy and tasted great. The peas were seasoned right and even the coffee was strong and good tasting. All in all, this will be repeated as often as it can be.

Special was meatloaf or ham on Tuesdays, so my husband opted for the meatloaf and I got the pepper jack burger. So glad we stopped in! The food was great, the corn nuggets(!! were delicious (try them with their ranch dressing! , my son ate all his chicken tenders without arguing. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area.
