Absolutely wonderful little place. I had the chicken fried chicken breakfast, I dont remember what they named it but it came with eggs, grits, biscuit and gravy and I opted for the hashbrown casserole which was the best I’ve ever had. The chicken was I believe an entire breast cooked perfectly. Coated evenly with a nice crust but tender and juicy inside. The gravy was excellent, and I could have eaten a dozen of the warm buttery biscuits.
My wife got scrambled eggs and French toast which was also amazingly good. We were a long way from home on a cold snowy day so the warmth of the people and food was very nice. Definitely recommend

Tried the Damascus Diner for the first time when they had their Harry Potter themed Breakfast! We went a few weeks ago and I got the Hillbilly Hash. The pork with the syrup, the peppers and onions with cheese was an explosion of flavor and delicious!! Also there is something about the biscuits. They are so buttery with a crunch but soft on the inside. So good. Definitely try them out!

We visited Abingdon, VA and Damascus, VA is about 20 miles south. Damascus is very near the bottom of Virginia, near both the northeast edge of TN and northwest edge of NC. This little village of 790 residents is known for hiking, fishing, hunting, and accesses to the Appalachian Trail. We chose to eat at The Damascas Diner as reviews said it was the best place in town to eat. And the reviewers weren’t wrong! We were lucky enough to have Jennifer take care of us. She gave good suggestions and so I had the Alaskan Whitefish lunch plate and my husband had the meatloaf sandwich. It is hard to say which is better, I guess it depends what you are in the mood for…but if you like both, you can’t go wrong with either choice. The sides of baked beans and green beans tasted like your grandmother’s best cooking! The restaurant was always full when we were there. The dining room is very clean and nicely laid out. There are seats at the counter. The bathroom is exceptionally clean (nice touch!) Friendly place, friendly town, lovely employees at the restaurant. Nice teamwork was noted with the staff. We highly recommend you try The Damasus Diner when you visit Damascas, VA.

The service was fantastic during our entire meal. It is a neat small town atmosphere in the restaurant. Please note they stop serving breakfast 11 AM sharp. I was fortunate to get the home fries that were at the end of the breakfast shift.

But reviews are too high it was average food . I tried everything that was too much for me I like the potato, saucage and pancakes were average .. egg was the usual while gravy was also average .. it was a good place but not outstanding for 4.7 stars

Grilled cheese burger and the shaved ham and cheese sandwich were good. The mashed potatoes and gravy would have been decent if it was warm but for some reason they came out cold. Everything else came out hot.
The restaurant has a decent variety on the menu. I was a little bummed that they were out of tater tots but the fries were quite tasty and not at all overly greasy.
The service by Cadee was FANTASTIC. For two people to eat with coke drinks, our bill was $30.00. So like all places right now, it’s a little costly but comparable in price to most restaurants.
Overall, I will eat there again.

Before heading home after a fun weekend in Damascus, we had breakfast at the Damascus Diner. I had the Hungry Mother. It is a tremendous amount of food and it was delicious. It comes with eggs, bacon and French toast. I could not eat it all. If you are looking for a good breakfast spot in Damascus, check out this diner.

Great little small town diner with really good food and really good friendly service!! Been here a few times twice for breakfast once for lunch. Highly recommend their cheesey hash browns I could destroy a whole plate of those alone!! Biscuits and gravy are also good as well as the omelettes. They offer soft drinks coffee and some alcohol/beer for drinks. Well worth any wait you may have!

Great place! We were told we had to stop by this place by a fellow hiker on the AT. We left Massie Gap on Friday and made it to the dinner for lunch on Sunday. The food was amazing, so glad we stopped here!

Perfect little Diner, the pork tenderloin sandwich was delicious paired with baked beans. Mo had the Hill Billy Reuben and said it was great and she loved the slaw.
Small, clean and fresh. Just the way we like it.
