Winston's Cafe

Winston's Cafe is located in the Crossways Shopping Center in Chesapeake. It is near the intersection with Greenbrier Pkwy and Eden Way N. It's in the same group of buildings such as Michael's (around the corner). My visit here was on October 27, 2025. The outside view of the business is simple, but effective. They have a specials chalkboard next to the entrance. Parking wasn't an issue on this visit, but I'm sure it can fill up at busier times. My mom and I were both in the area as she wanted to go to the Michael's store here. When we came inside, it wasn't busy, as it was around 3:30 pm when we got here. We were greeted by the one who would be our server for this visit. He gave us menus to look at and asked us for our drink orders. I generally stick with water with lemon, whic

What a fortuitous find! My wife and I discovered this gem by accident as we finished some shopping in Chesapeake. I ordered the Texas Burger with fries and my wife ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger. Both orders were delivered with efficient speed and both the fries and the burgers were piping hot upon arrival! My Texas Burger was absolutely delicious and I went through that thing like a hot knife through butter! My wife and I both agreed we had not had burgers this good in quite some time! The services was excellent! We will definitely be back to Winston’s Café!

I saw another review on here that said their wife had the French dip and said it was the best they’d ever had in their lives. I agree. I got this as deliver and sandwich was fantastic even being cold when it got here. By far the best French dip I’ve had in the 757 and will be coming through in person for it next time. The roast beef was tender and no globs of fat or sinew, the cheese was really great with it. The subs a dry sub which I appreciate more than when someone dumps au jus over it prior to serving. The bread and meats held a lot of the au jus when I dipped it and the au jus was good.

I was traveling for work and found this great cozy spot to eat! I like restaurants that are local to the area they're in. Winston's Cafe did not disappoint! I came in, sat down, I was greeted promptly, I already checked out the menu online and I ordered right away. The french dip sandwich was fantastic, and I am always looking for a good French dip. It was also trivia night and I was seated a bit far, but the host came over and made sure I felt included which I thought was very nice touch! I will definitely go back the next time I'm in that area!

We stopped in for lunch. This is a local bar that opened up back in 1990. It's been quite awhile since i've last visited. The food here is hearty and homestyle. The French dip and the Winston Wonder were well prepared and tasty. It's a very narrow restaurant, limited seating with a small full bar. My only complaint is the tables are sticky, they need to be refinished. Everyone here was friendly,welcoming, and attentive.
