Checkers Family Restaurant - Windsor, Virginia

Jenn

I hadn't been there in years. I just randomly stopped, and as always, they didn't disappoint. The service was great, I wasn't feeling well, and they really took the time to answer questions while I made up my mind and quickly got it out to me so I could get home. I got the poppers, the Philly, and sweet potato fries. All were delicious and made exactly how I asked for it to be. I will definitely be going back and taking the kids.

PRESENTATION WAS UGLY

This place is a hidden gem. Their hours are Tuesday through Friday, 11am-8pm. They are closed Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. We Googled " Food near Me" while traveling through Windsor, VA. and this restaurant came up. I read the reviews. Although I read both positive and negative reviews, we decided to have our own experiences.

I ordered the bake potato and chili. I know the presentation could use more effort, and the outer skin of the baked potato should be better, but it was okay. My husband ordered the hamburger steak with gravy. Both dishes were really delicious. We enjoyed our experience here, and we said we would be back again. By the way, the prices were so reasonable and that's why I give it 5 stars.

I was driving through Windsor and was hungry, so I decided to try something different than a chain restaurant. I happened upon Checkers and stopped there.

I was greeted and was able to choose where I wanted to sit and I chose a window seat. There were so many selections on the menu that I liked. I decided on fried shrimp which came with two sides. I chose a loaded, baked potato, sweet potato fries, and green beans. Yeah, I paid to have an extra side cuz I wanted it! Everything was yummy!

I also liked the paintings on the wall and these little miniature creations of little houses/rooms that lit up.

I will definitely be coming back again soon. 🙂

I have been going to this local family restaurant for 27 years and have gone through all of the changes they have gone through, but eating there this past Wednesday showed us we would never go again. Not only have their prices gone out the roof but the portions shrunk considerably. Burgers don't belong on a sweet bread like Brioche neither do patty melts. The french fry portions shrunk to minimal, as did the burgers. Not to mention the menu has also become minimal. There was nothing tasty about our food. So sad for locals.

I was overall happy with my order everything was really good the steak could have been seasoned and cooked a little bit better but for this area it was a decent meal. I was happy that they had blue cheese dressing that the salad was fresh I was also happy that they had lemon for my tea. It is really close to Blackwater Birds and Bees Farm.

Used to love this place.. Dont know if they changed cooks or what but they suck.. Constant call in order screw ups, hockey pucks for burgers after i told them not to over cook my burger, burger didnt even have cheese on it (which is standard).. Missing my mustard, also ordered double fries.. As you can see in the pick that is no where near a double order of fries.. I love to support local, but i also dont like getting ripped off..have given second chances, there is no third with me..After spending $66 for three meals and getting this, i will be eating elsewhere from now on..

After many years of passing this place, Paw researched it and reviews said there where known for there burgers, so we stopped. Friendly staff. Jennifer brought us to rolls to get started while we looked at the menu. All your favs apps, salads,burgers,sandwiches,steaks and seafood. Both of our burgers were hand patted fresh and delish okra was good fries also. So if your driving down 460 stop in as say hi to Jennifer and get your grub on.

Fried chicken livers and catfish have been added to the menu on a daily basis because of their popularity when served as specials. The chicken livers are cooked to perfection! Grilled asparagus is also a new item often and is GREAT!! New ownership has begun making his super good pies!! It is a joy to go there to eat and to recommend it to friends!!
