What a great experience! Love the small, “old-school” environment. As a dimming establishment that has been around since 1935 they certainly have perfected their craft. Food was hot and quick to the table. Like super fast! The waitress was sweet and helpful despite nearly every seat full and numerous call-in orders. Prices are also super affordable which makes this a great spot for lunch! Would definitely recommend!

2 Cheesy Westerns with is all i need to say. My parents drive over an hour just to eat here every month, so that should tell you something. This is a staple of The Hill City for sure! Great place and people. Love it!

Great and speedy service and very friendly staff. Their ranch is delicious as well as their fries. Highly recommend the cheesy western. However, note that they have limited seating which is all barstools/at a counter.

This a great place to eat. The staff is friendly and your food is cooked fast. There are only about 15 barstools so at times it can be packed. I havent had anything bad to eat there my kids love the red hot dogs. I recommend the cheesy western and a bowl. They now offer delivery through grub hub.

First time to the new(ish) location. Parking to the back was easy. The food is consistently delicious, fast and proves WHY the T-room has been around for nearly 100 years. A Lynchburg ICON that didnt change its character when they built a new place.Love it, and always have my Mama bring me a sack of hots, cheesy westerns and three quarts of chili when she visits me in another state!Hands down, one of the BEST places in Lynchburg, VA for local color and cheap, quick, filling eats!Please. Be sure to tip the cook and server. They work hard for the money -- and still put a lil love in the craft!

This is the Timberlake area branch of the infamous Downtown Texas Inn (T-Room). Food is great, prices very reasonable and the staff are quick and efficient (and eccentric, just like the Downtown one). This one is a way-newer location so it lack the certain run-down charm of the 80-year old Downtown place but the food is identical between the two locations.Id recommend a combo: A Cheesy Western All the Way (cheesburger with a fried egg on it, dressed with mustard, relish and onions), A Dog All The Way (Hot dog with chili, mustard, relish and onion) and A Bowl All The Way (Their home-made chili beans with relish and onions - see a theme developing here??). As you are stating your order, the server will be relaying the order by YELLING it at the cook so dont get spooked by this - its just how the do. The cook will sometimes YELL it back as an acknowledgement. Dont be alarmed.They do make other items - they added a chicken sandwich, french fries and some other things and the other day I saw them hand a MENU to a couple of customers (these guys werent local and I guess the waitress knew that) - I have never in 50 years seen a menu handed out in the T-Room.... and I think it is the only restaurant in town where you can order a glass of ice-cold buttermilk.Both of these places are rife with occasional and regulars that come from every strata of local society - youll see a local banker in his suit and tie eating next to a dusty, tired construction worker, next to a grandama and her grandkids.This particular location does not stay open 24-hours, like the flagship one Downtown. If you want dinner and a show, go to the Downtown one around 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning...

Perfect dog and the cheesey western is great. Next time though Ill get chili on the burger too. This is a newer location so if its old style charm you want theres another location nearby but this has super clean restrooms

A mom and pop kind of restaurant if I have ever seen one. Walking inside this establishment is a throw back to days gone by. The televisions play leave it to beaver, Father knows best, bonanza, and more of the old black and white TV classics. You can order a burger and fries for under 7 dollars, or 2 hotdogs and a drink for even less.This is a slice of Americana that you dont see as often, and it truly is a great atmosphere. Theres no tables here so expect to sit down at the bar and order your food, watch the staff prepare it and then be served what your ordered piping hot.Of the restaurants in lynchburg for a quick meal that is cheap and tastes good this is one of my favorites.

Review №23

Good. Lacking in the same atmosphere as downtown however it’s atmosphere is more similar to a local old time diner. Imagine the movie legion, if that happened in lynchburg, it would have been set at the T Room. Stellar food. Incredible staff. Great when it’s late and you’re starving and just want like two cheese burgers and some fries split between friends. 10/10 would recommend.

Great old fashioned burger joint. Atmosphere is very casual, service is good just dont expect to get chatty with the server. Your order will be up within minutes.The food is hot and tasty, more like a truck stop, not a place to watch your weight, but a good treat once in a while. Good variety, good breakfast. I love the Tommy burger.

This is an excellent local eatery, the food here is always fresh and the service is quick and friendly. They used to be open almost 24 hours, but due to the pandemic things have changed and I believe they are only open until midnight most nights.

Really great place to grab a quick bite. Prices are cheap, basically like going to a fast food place, but the food is consistent and the people there actually seem to care about what theyre doing. The interior is like an old school diner. Fun place to grab good food, even by yourself. Highly recommend.

Good food fast, great service!This place is an extension of the locally renowned Texas inn. The menu here has been extended to include more things, and the food is great with the counter service and take out.I found the food to be great, however if you have never been to the Texas inn, that is worth a stop too.They are well known for their cheesy westerns, chilli, and hot dogs.Its not fine dinning but it is comfort food.

Review №75

I love the feel of retro, 1950s style diners, and the tearoom fixes the occasional itch I get to go to one. The food is relatively cheap, and still tastes pretty good. Also, the location stays open later than most places in Lynchburg, so you can fill those late-night burger cravings. Be warned, though, if your bill is less than $5, theyll only accept cash, so make sure you have the appropriate funds before going.

Im visiting from Florida with my family and my cousin brought me here. I had no clue what I should order because I had no clue of what they served. My cousin says Do you like relish? With the confirmation of yes, my cousin relays the order and you hear miss Lisa yell to the back of the diner CHEESY!! When the order arrived moments later, I received the tastiest sandwich with chopped hamburger meat, fried egg, melted cheese, mustard, and sweet relish and OH MY GOODNESS!!! By the time we had completed our meal we had ordered FIVE CHEESYS and was sopping the droppings with our bun!! Miss Lisa has put a Cheesy smile on my face!!!😃

The place was crowded so the 2 of us had to wait about 10 minutes to get a seat. The Western Burger with cheese was ok, but a little skimpy on the Tavern Relish, and the chili was just bland. So if Id known sooner, I wouldve asked for onions or cheese or something to help the chilli taste better. At least the prices werent too bad.
