Wake Cafe has the best fast food at Smith Mountain Lake! The prices are the same as you would pay at any mainstream fast-food restaurant chain, but the food is SO much better. The Grilled Chicken Avocado Ranch Sandwich is excellent, and the onion rings were some of the best I have ever had. The onion rings were piping hot, and very big, with the perfect ratio of onion and batter. The Greek Salad is another great choice, with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The service here is always great, and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is very pleasant, clean, and well-decorated. The wait for your order is a bit longer than mainstream chains, but the food is definitely worth it. I can not praise Wake Cafe enough. Make sure to stop in during your next visit to the lake.

Admittedly, I am from out of town and was looking for something a little different. By the name Cafe I thought maybe I would find some thing like a home cooked meal from Grandma. While this place was more like a bougie Burger king, it was actually good. I had a burger cooked to Perfection on a roll that is much better than most. The fries were good and the milkshake was delicious. The service was on point.

Just left from Wake Cafe and the food and service was amazing, my mom got fish and chips and I got a burger, the burger was huge and full of flavor. After I got a shake with Carmel and chocolate while my mom got a fudge sunday with pecans, beautiful decorations and has an amazing feel around. Mostly elder people come in but it’s great, best food at West lake!

First visit to this establishment since it was a Dairy Queen. Let me just say, this place is neat. It serves a lot of food similar to DQ but at a higher quality (and steeper price). This place is spic and span and so beautifully decorated. The food was delicious, hot and fresh. Service was above average. I will certainly come back.
Highly recommend!

Today I had lunch at Wake Cafe with my grandson and cousin. My cousin bought my lunch for my birthday, I gave my grandson my debit card to b order his. When they brought my grandsons food, they brought an extra fry, none of us ordered extra fries but he left them anyway. The food was great. As we were finishing the Manager stopped by and asked about the unordered fries, she said we had been charged for them so she woukd refund the money. She brought cash for the fries. I am impressed by the honesty and wonderful customer service.

After a 25 minute wait time (arrived to my “waiting parking spot” at 1:20, recieved food at 1:46) you would think that the food was going to be delicious. I ordered the four piece boat. The waffle fries were fine, many burnt, but fine, still edible. Ate one chicken tender of the four in the order, and discovered that the others were not properly cooked, and there was doughy batter coating all of them. As someone who has cooked fried chicken many many times, it does not take 25 minutes, and it certainly doesn’t still have wet batter on the inside of it. Unfortunately though, this wait time is always the case here, but this was exceptionally long. Also, as a note, there was one other person ahead of me who also waited the same duration of time.
Fix the wait times or you will continue losing business. Attached photos of chicken.

We called ahead for pick up. It took 20 minutes to get there and still had to wait more than 20 minutes for our food. Note: they were NOT busy. Two tables had patrons and no one in the drive thru.

All the food is fresh cooked to order so expect longer than average wait times. The food is very good quality and tastes great! They also have lots of soft serve ice cream blends and Sundaes.
Their frozen lemonade is to die for.

The food is fantastic. It was fresh, hot, and tasty. The reason for the lower rating is that it’s hit or miss when this place will be open. They don’t stick to their posted hours. They’re constantly facing staffing issues or other problems. So, it’s quite disappointing how many times I’ve gone there when they’ve advertised being open and they weren’t. I’m not sure how to address this, but that’s why I gave a lower rating.

What a cool little shop this is. It was an old Dairy Queen they converted. You can barely tell though with the cool decor though. The food is reminiscent of an old diner but cool twists. I got the brisket sandwich with cheese curds. They both were cooked perfectly and very flavorful. I highly recommend upgrading to the cheese curds. Definitely worth it and I will be back the next time I come through for work.
