Food Scene

In our opinion, this is the best Farm-to-Table in all of Roanoke, and it's an easy walk from Ingleside! We love their seasonal menu, attention to detail, and the unique flavor combos chef throws together. Even their bar food menu is well above average. - Looking for wine pairing suggestions: ask for Brian. He's the best!

ICE CREAM FOR STRENGTH!! Pop's is an old fashioned ice cream parlor with amazing floats, splits, sodas, etc. featuring local Homestead Creamery ice cream. This is also a great spot for some of the most decadent comfort food sandwiches you've ever had. The pimento grilled cheese is our favorite! Also worth noting, is how gluten-free friendly this establishment is. GF bread for sandwiches, GF ice cream cones, and delicious locally made GF layered cake!

Best breakfast around! Very economical, made fresh daily, a true taste of the south. Also have a gluten free "tortilla" option that is really quite tasty. Jesse's pick: Fried Catfish Biscuit - Kristin's pick: Garden Grown on a gluten free tortilla.
