Despite the chilly 27-degree weather in Northern Virginia, the cozy, warm ambiance inside the restaurant made for a perfect refuge. The service was exceptional, with our cheery server striking the ideal balance between being attentive and giving us space to enjoy our meal. Their helpful demeanor added a special touch to our morning. We opted for the breakfast buffet, which is our favorite and never fails to impress. I indulged in my all-time favorite pancakes paired with a comforting cup of spirit hot tea while my fiancé enjoyed a refreshing red grapefruit, fluffy scrambled eggs, and crispy home-fried potatoes. To top it off, we shared a steaming Americano that perfectly complemented the meal, especially with my fiancé's breakfast. The food was delicious, the service outstanding, and the atmosphere welcoming—a great start to our weekend. Founding Farmers continues to set the standard for a hearty, satisfying breakfast experience. Highly recommended!More infoFounding Farmers VA: Reston StationPrice: Moderate• American• Reston•4.4
