Pop's Dogs & Ma's Burgers — Restaurant in Virginia

I honestly didn’t expect to find a spot like this where you get such quality for the price. The burgers here are thick, juicy, and totally satisfying—way better than I was expecting for what you pay. They’re cooked just right, with a nice crispy edge on the outside and tender on the inside. Seriously, you’re getting a lot of bang for your buck.

Now, let’s talk about the chili. It’s fantastic. Rich, flavorful, and just spicy enough to give everything a kick. I found myself putting it on the hot dogs and on the burger. Highly recommend you try it too—it really pulls the meal together.

The daily special is a total winner: two hot dogs, a side of fries, and a drink—all for just $7.99. You can’t beat that deal. I even went head and ordered the footlong dog, and it did not disappoint. If you're hungry, this one’s definitely worth it.

The service here is great. The staff is super friendly, and even though the space is a little tight, they make it work. The cook is really down-to-earth and more than happy to chat while they’re getting everything prepped. There’s a good amount of seating outside, and the A/C inside is a nice touch when it’s hot out. They accept both cash and credit.

The drink menu isn’t huge—just water, lemonade, limeade, and tea—but honestly, you’re not coming here for the drinks, you’re here for the food. And the food? Definitely worth the wait. It takes a little longer to cook, but it’s all made fresh right in front of you.

If you're in the mood for a solid meal at a price that’s hard to beat, I’d definitely recommend this place. It’s simple, no-frills, but really well done. Just be ready for a bit of a wait, but trust me,...

Very cool and unique place with a dynamic duo that cranks out unique twists on hotdogs and burgers with a side of Southern sweetness. Three feet inside the pocket sized restaurant rests a narrow 8-10 seats at a counter. Surrounding those seats and nearby grill hangs an eclectic mix of legitimate Americana. To my left was an actual newspaper copy of the day after Kennedy was shot, encased in plastic - just propped up against the wall and some condiments. The place is tight but offers counter-dwellers an opportunity to directly interact with the lady of the house and her golden tounge of sweetisms. She drops "honey", "sweetheart", "son" at the end of every question or comment. It's endearing. If you need more room there are tables outside.

The pair work well together. At one point I heard the chef murmuring to himself the order of someone who had just come in - before he ordered. The lady asked the new arrival - sure enough the chef nailed it - knowing what he was going to order - before he did so.

Check out the 360 degree picture of the place. Well worth the visit.

Extremely tiny place but very easy to see/find from the road as it's literally right on the corner/side of the main road. But both the owners are super nice, extremely social and friendly people with great customer service values and such. They are very old-styled but it's probably one of my favourite things about the place.

My S/O got their 2 hot dog special with drink and fries and said it was very good, it was very affordable as well being only about $5. While I got the monster burger of a whole 1-pound of meat/beef, along with fries and a drink. It was absolutely delicious and their sweet tea was great as well, I'm not sure if it was pre-made or home-brewed but it tasted like it was home-brewed.

In the end, I highly recommend this place to any travelers or locals who was a nice spot to sit-in, get a fun chat, enjoy some great old-styled service where you're not in a rush and the environment is just very friendly and casual with really good,...
