Reviews for Big Oak Cafe in Urbanna, VA

Absolutely amazing food and wonderful staff!! I adore small family run restaurants! The atmosphere is very relaxing, and there... isn't a thing on that menu I haven't liked! Definitely me and my boyfriends favorite Cafe in the area!! Read more

Had lunch at the Big Oak Cafe for the first time and found it to be a good place to eat with friendly staff and fair prices. Had... the fried green tomatoes and chicken salad sandwich. The bread was excellent. I believe they make it in-house. Would recommendthis place to others. Read more

Service wasn?t great, food was overpriced and took over 30 minutes for some eggs! We had a large party but several tables... arrived after us and received their food before us. Poached eggs were hard boiled; sausage gravy wasn?t good; refills for ourdrinks were nonexistent (we got up and walked to the drink station so they would get the hint); $50 for 3 people for breakfastis nuts! I would not recommend this place and probably wouldn?t have eaten the food if it was free. Don?t waste your time ormoney. Read more

The coolest little café with the best tasting food ???? The banana pudding is out of this world ?????????

A lovely spot, with great steaks at great prices. Wonderful service and killer cooking from the new chefs. We had such a nice... dinner, and we'll be back next time we're in Urbanna! Read more

Excellent little place for dinner. Our meal was served fast and was very hot and it was real home cooked food, not packaged and... full of preservatives. The staff was incredibly friendly. Not a ton of dining space so get there early. We loved it, we'll beback. Read more

This is a real "hometown" charmer! The atmosphere is family friendly and the employees are helpful. My wife had the chicken... salad and declared it "amazing". I had the shrimp po boy and the shrimp was plentiful and delicious. We enjoyed the blueberrycobler for dessert and it was delicious but the portion was a little small. All in all a delicious meal and we'll definitely beback regularly. Thank you! Read more

Very attractive and relaxing atmosphere, very welcoming. The food is very good and there is too much of it: of course this would... not be a problem if one could stop eating! Open until 2 PM for lunch, reopens at 5 PM for dinner. Crabcake is large and veryplausible; it is served with one side, a variety of which are available. There are a number of seafood items available, severalshrimp preparations and several scallop preparations, all of which sound very appetizing. During my visit the dining area wascomfortably full, mostly of senior citizens as I am. Beer and wine are available, but so is water, iced tea, lemonade andcoffee. Desserts disappear rapidly, perhaps well before 2 PM?just a suggestion! I did not see the dinner menu, but thephotographs of rare roast beef from other reviewers suggest that Big Oak Cafe may be one of the last great resorts for a massiveold-style dinner. At lunch the speedy and efficient DeeDee H was my server, and I had my food?and two glasses of water?almostbefore I realized I had given her my order! As she was serving the entire room, I?m not sure how she does it! But I wascertainly impressed! Parking is in the rear, and there is a certain up-hill-ness to gaining the dining room, but everyone findsthe effort worthwhile. Perhaps our willingness to adventure is what keeps us all so young!?Or maybe it?s JUST GOOD FOOD! Read more
