Located near the house, this is a local institution for its hamburgers and the like. The prices are awesome. This would be like a cool hipster restaurant in a larger city with very high prices.

This is the restaurant you want to go to if you are interested in a long drive and what at first glance looks to be a redneck bar. But, in reality, is some of the best food in the entire state of Virginia. It's a good hour drive from the apartment, but definitely worth it.

Spending an afternoon in South Boston, about 30 minutes from Danville, is fun. But, if you decide to venture out, Bistro 1888 must be on the menu. It's one of the best restaurants you'll ever visit.
