I can speak for Wooden Pickle, Bellas(we have all of our pre-season crew meets there), and Bonefire. Although it used to be a chain, we STILL mess with the Bonanza in Lebanon. I'm with Sixcat, find the local spots. We ALWAYS get great food and service there and they are usually more than accommodating to host us for our meetings.. I can microwave food at home, looking at you Applebees and Chilis. I make it a point ever so often to get lunch at the Bonanza. And going to try out the new Macado’s location tonight. Hoping it’s better than what they left behind in Bluefield, WV… cityofRaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very picky with my hotdog chili. Pal's is the only chain that I will eat one from. Pal’s is good. I’m a big fan of the DQ hot dog chili. But my favorite chili just straight up is from Buddy BarBQ. Their chili can’t be beaten, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got sick on some pulled pork, and still haven't worked up the courage to go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 I went to El Patio in Bluefield after the game Saturday on recommendation of a couple folks from the forum. I asked the server for no veggies on my dish I ordered. It took 45 minutes to bring us our food, and my dish had veggies on it. Fiancee and daughter both said their chicken tasted funny as well.

Mountain Football 1,532 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 Unless your 80 and like Bob Evans there isn't many good places to eat in Bluefield IMO. Double Gates is my favorite. The Applebee's is awful and my understanding the Macado's service is the same they had at the mall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s pretty unusual for them. La Fiesta’s very hit or miss, which is why I wouldn’t recommend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No liquor license yet (doesn't affect us) and food took no less than 30 min to get after we ordered. Ordered a sandwich supposed to be turkey, bacon, mayo, tomato, on bagel. What I got instead, turkey, grilled chicken lettuce tomato on bagel. The waitress even said the right name when she delivered the food so who knows there. New Mexican in the mall was pretty good when we tried it. Deleted Account 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kone was the best hotdogs anywhere. Would put Frosty Bossie as a tight second place. Mentioned this place to some other people and they are like that place is great and I'm thinking why did I just learn about them this summer considering we raced two seasons down at LPR???

It seems festivities were cut short when Johnny Castle showed up though. Apparently, somebody put Baby in a corner. Witnesses described the participants having watermelon afterward.

The one in Clintwood had me waiting for 15 minutes in drive thru once. I asked for a refund and the manager said, “it’s only been 15 minutes. What’s the big deal?” To be honest, I was impressed that he said that. Considering 90 seconds is supposed to be the rule there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can believe it. I was in the drive thru at Tazewell once and a young man licked his hand and lightly smacked a girl on the back of her neck. Basically goofing off. He then turns around and puts the lid on my drink! I told the manager m. Her response was "Are you sure it was him because he's been cleaning the bathroom."

It was probably Union and Graham fans getting together and fighting with the Applebee's cooks. Sorry Graham fans, but you have a first class shi*hole for an Applebee's up that way. I'm serious about this, it's the most God awful Applebee's (hands down, by a lot) that I've ever been to.

However, they are woefully understaffed, and if they can’t catch up, it’ll end up dooming them. It shouldn’t take a hair under 2 hours to eat a meal, and it shouldn’t be lukewarm when it arrives to me. They’re busting their tails, that much is obvious. They also need to police their bar better. My children should not be subjected to F bombs from drunk a**holes from 50 feet away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the same old menu plus mexican food now! If you are around Duffield check out Chubeez. An old Airstream turned into a food stand. Logger burger is a personal favorite. Their burgers are huge. Miss the Waffle and Egg I think it was in Claypool Hill where Autozone I believe it is now. Ate there a many a times after working games in Tazewell or Buchannon County.
