The Princess Anne County Grill is located inside the Virginia Beach Farmer's Market. They are located on the western side of the Farmer's Market and is across from the Farmer's Market office. There is ample parking available, including additional parking behind the buildings. My visit here was for lunch on July 25, 2021.
We had come to check out the place the day prior, but the online info was incorrect in terms of their business hours, which I have since submitted for updating. We had gotten there around 3 pm the day before, but they actually close at 2 pm now instead of 4 pm. Their hours are now 9 am to 2 pm seven days a week year round.
We came around noon on July 25, 2021. We were greeted by one of the servers and was notified the wait would be about 20 minutes, which ended up being pretty close. The inside was packed and the outdoor tables they had were full as well. Once a table was ready, we were seated inside.
After being seated, it took a while for a server to come to the table. One of the servers that was taking food outside to one of the tables asked if anyone had been over, which nobody had been. She said she'd be with us after getting that taken care of. In the interim, one of the other servers came over and got our drink orders. Shortly after, our server came over to the table and asked if we were ready to order. I ended up going with the Sunday Blue Plate Special, which is Oven Roasted Turkey, Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, and Green Beans. My mom went with the Egg Salad Sandwich with coleslaw as the side.
After about 10 minutes or so, the food came to the table. The food for both of us did look good and came out hot. The turkey, mashed potatoes and grave, and roll with butter were really good. I did have some of the green beans, but they just seemed too soft. It tasted like the green beans were canned. My mom said that the egg salad sandwich was okay, but it was bland and didn't have much flavor to it.
Overall, it was okay for us, but nothing that would wow me into a rating higher than what I have rated today. For the amount of turkey that was on the blue plate special, it wasn't that big for $9.99 as it was just one slice of turkey. Even though I am local, I don't come this way too often. I did have the feel that the place could also be a bit of a dive, as there were many locals that the servers were talking to as they come in or out. It's possible that it may have been an off day there on this visit, but I will try them again in the future to see if this visit was not the...
Read moreTerrible! Went for breakfast. The place wasn't too crowded. went with a group of 5. In the 10 minutes we were there we were never served or greeted. We seated ourselves and after 5 minutes of waiting and staring at the waitresses who were in the Corner organizing ketchup, one decides to come over and put some menus on our table saying the other girl "Tiffany" will be serving us. She turns and gets the order of other people who have just come in. Tiffany makes her way around the Resturant refilling water and asking if people want dessert, ignoring us (it's 11 am whose gonna get dessert!). When Tiffany walks past our group for the second time I have to stop her and tell her we are ready to order. She stops looks at our group and says are you going to be taking your order to go....
I don't think I really need to continue. But there is a strong "VIBE" in this place. If you want to feel like your living in pre civil rights era, this place should...
Read moreThe waitress was rude and loud. I came in with a small iced coffee in a covered container. She blasted at the top of her voice that we had to leave. I had no intention of drinking it there only to walk around the market after lunch with it. We were dropped off so I could not put it in a car and offered to put it on the seat. We came in for iced teas and 2 lunch specials. We have been coming to this place for over 35 years and we were going to come back over the weekend to get our fall decor as we do every year. She made us leave. We left and will never return. Our new favorite place is Anderson's. They were pleasant and the market is great and the restaurant. We support VA Beach but never again will we be at this location. The people at the grill were also shocked by the behavior of this waitress as were we. I will NEVER recommend anyone to the Princess...
