About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
A favorite Southwest Virginia landmark, The Farmhouse Restaurant has served the New River Valley since 1963. The authentic farm house, originally part of the Ridinger Estate, was build in the 1800's.

In the early 1970's, an old train caboose was added to provide a unique dining area. During the past decade, a rustic lounge, additional dinner seats, and a spacious 250-seat Banquet Facility have added to the charm of The Farmhouse.

    After having 2 good meals here I was disappointed with my last visit. It took over an hour to get our food and when it arrived the salmon was over cooked, the mash potatoes weren’t hot and the button mushrooms were over cooked and too salty. Our waitress was pleasant but failed to check on us during the hour wait.

    We were greeted by the friendly hostess when we arrived. The waitstaff were very knowledgeable and suggested the wine pairings for our meals. Their prime rib was of the scale fantastic and the bourbon salmon was equally great. My suggestion if you have the opportunity to go there this place is not to be missed..

    The Farmhouse never fails to be delicious, but our meals (salmon for me, prime rib for my husband) were outstanding. The corn was amazing. Our server, Kenna, was absolutely great, so our birthday celebration was truly celebratory. It was a bit loud (weird for the Farmhouse) because the people near us were fooled by the privacy into thinking they were alone in the restaurant. Not the fault of the Farmhouse.

    Business dinner with important clients. 6 people at first seated in the quaint tables that are curtained off rooms. Way too tight for today's healthy sized folks. Restaurant quickly got us a larger table that was amazing.

    Food was excellent. Waitress was distracted by guests seated at the next booth (her friends) so order was not correctly prepared, visits were few. I’d go here again but seek better server.

    We've had excellent food here before, but this time everything was cold and just not great. This was a graduation celebration for my son who had been looking forward to a truly excellent meal, so I was really disappointed.

    Will is an excellent waiter. We have had Will before. He remembers his customers! It would be nice if y’all had specials to offer each night since the menu does not change very much .

    So happy I made a reservation at The Farmhouse for our last morning in the area. We were traveling back to NJ with our 2 dogs and this was the perfect spot to give them one last stretch before getting on the road. The staff was welcoming and accommodating for all of us. The food was delicious. Couldn’t be more thankful that the weather was perfect for sitting outside. Thank you so much for being a dog friendly option and to the staff for being so kind to our fur babies.
