Roanoker Restaurant Inc

Great breakfast at value prices. Visiting from out of town, we didn't want the usual breakfast (Waffle House, Cracker Barrel). In a tourist brochure, my husband and I saw The Roanoker listed for breakfast, so off we went. It was a Sunday morning, so we waited about 15 minutes (there is a sign up on the wall to show how long you will wait from certain spots in line). My husband had a egg/sausage and cheese bowl which he said was wonderful. It was definitely big and filling. He also had their famous biscuits and gravy. Even me, who is not normally a biscuit fan thought they were some of the best I've ever tasted. Yummy! I had a scrambled egg, sausage and pancake special with fried apples. These fried apples were one of the highlights. They had a rich taste and good texture - not soggy like other places. To top it off, I ordered a hot chocolate. It arrived with an accompanying bowl (yes bowl) of REAL whipped cream. Now that made my day! All that at a very reasonable price. The con - The wait staff wasn't the friendliest -- to us. I think you have to be a 'regular' because they certainly talked it up to people they knew. But who really cares, I had my husband to talk to and I really was too busy eating.…
