I've been eating here for 15 years or so and the menu hasn't changed. The specials don't change. The people don't change. The biggest change was when they outlawed indoor smoking in Virginia and Frost let you smoke until midnight the day the bill went into effect. It's always been 24 hrs and its always been delicious, greasy, dirty, tasty... More

OK, full disclosure - I LOVE diners, and this is a great one. The only reason I give it 3 stars is because as food goes, it's only average. But really, isn't that what diners are about? Milk shakes are enormous and excellent. Breakfast = Chicken Fried Steak and eggs.

Go early in the morning because by mid-afternoon, the place is dirty. Never had a great meal, had a few bad ones though. Mostly, its a breakfast diner and nothing more.

I just like the Frost Cafe in Culpeper a little better. Great food and atmosphere in Warrenton. The only downside is that tables are limited and you may have to wait. There really isn't a good place to wait without being completely in the way or outdoors. They only take cash.

Fresh food prepared behind the counter so you can watch if you want. Quickly served and tastes great. Best breakfast around and reasonably priced.

Great little find. Stopped to get gas next door and asked for a decent place to eat. Couldn't have been more pleased. Great home cooking. The smell hits you as you walk through the door and you just want to dig in right there and then. Service good. Driving through again will be a must place to stop.

I have passed by the place many times and never stopped. It is a typical old-style diner that looks like a converted train dining car. The service was fast, the breakfast well prepared. It's nothing fancy, but is typical down-home homestyle cooking. No frills just good food and very attentive service.

I LOVE diner food. I try not to judge by the outside appearance because most diners are old but the food is usually pretty good. This was not the case. I should have turned around and walked out the door when I walked in and the smell of sulfur/sewer hit me. The inside was as bad as the outside -... More

Some people love the feel of Frost's, and like the prices. Gotta say - the food was greasy; the restaurant felt greasy; felt like we needed a shower after we left.
