We're shocked that you're shocked. Lol

I'm sure sly has it better in Houston some how...

Krispy Kreme bailed out of here years ago and Dunkin Donuts recently returned. Shipley Donuts is the big chain here. But frankly donuts are not a big deal down here. Breakfast tacos (i.e. taquitos) or kolaches are Texan morning grub. And frankly I am shocked the latter has not caught on nationally yet.

I do love kolaches, but Krispy Kreme and Dunkin Donuts do have a presence here in Dallas. BTW...Houston does not equal Texas.

Krispy Kreme is pretty good for chain donuts. There's one on Virginia Beach Blvd. we always went to when I was a kid... I'd down a dozen after swim practice. I don't eat them as much as I used to, but I'd rather have donuts from smaller bakeries around Lynchburg. Chestnut Hill Bakery and Uncle Joe's Donuts are both just fine for me and both are owned by LU supporters.

Glad to hear about Steak & Shake moving in. Never been to one, but I was going to go to the one in Roanoke a couple weekends ago. Alas it was way too busy so I went across the parking lot to Cook Out instead. So it will be nice to have one in Lynchburg since I normally make it back there at least once a month for a weekend.

Steak 'N Shake - good milkshakes, above average burgers, horrible service

Dont forget shoestring fries

+1 to LUconn

Everytime we hit Steak 'N Shake we give plenty of time for the notoriously slow service. But the food rarely disappoints at the price point.

Panda Express seems to be going into Arosto's old spot near Chipotle.

Just bring me a place with real ramen. C'ville is too far to go for lunch. And a good banh mi.

[Sly Fox]

Ramen is all the rage right now. I would think a place would eb coming to the Burg soon. I have banh mi all around me and I am addicted. But supposedly there are more Vietnamese in Houston now than Saigon.

Good news for Lynchburg!
