“ Such a fun and unique experience! Great sandwiches, friendly staff, and live music! It is so cool to watch the planes outside! There is a playground for kiddos too! ”
“ My husband and I stopped here to stretch and refuel (both our plane & our bellies)! We liked it so much the first time we knew we had to stop here on our way back, as well :) Didn't take many pics, but it's cute and small. Size doesn't matter because people just keep coming at lunchtime, and it's easy to see why. Try the chili- you don't be disappointed! ”
“ Was very nice sitting there eating watching the planes take off and land the little Piper Cubs the small planes add tuna fish sandwich and seafood bisque ”
“ This place was too cute and so cool! Our son (all of us really) loved seeing the planes flying and landing while we ate and he played on the playground. This place has had a huge influx of people lately Recommend getting there right around lunch time. My mom got the Reuben sandwich with coleslaw and tomato soup, I got the BLT with pasta salad, Asher got the chili cheese dog and Theo got a hotdog. All delicious ”
“ Great little deli style restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxing. You can watch the small private planes take off and land while you eat. ”
“ First time visiting, and everything tasted great! Plenty to choose from. The fresh bread was awesome! Service was fast and friendly. Seating along the runway is definitely a favorite. Recommend stopping in by plane or car for some great food! Don't forget the pie! ”
“ Lovely view. I loved to watch the planes, I know that sounds childish, but hey... you can't keep a guy from liking planes! The food was really good, I recommend The Osprey. We didn't even know this place was here, and we've been going to Williamsburg for years, and my dad's been going since he was a kid too. It is very child friendly, the have an outdoor playground and there is plenty of room for kids to run around outside. You can view the planes from the outdoor patio even after the restaurant itself is closed, which is nice. My sisters had loved watching the planes land and take-off, they thought it was amazing. I would definitely recommend this place for people of any age. ”
“ Delicious as always! Such a fun place to sit back and relax, watch the planes taking off and landing in the background. The Bavarian bread is always worth the trip. ”
