Dining
For fancy food, head to Staunton for Zynodoa or The Chop House, or for light food with a terrific wine list and cocktails, Accordia. However Waynesboro, VA has many great options that never disappoint our guests. Of course, in addition to the list below, we have all the fast food, two Japanese restaurants, and a great strip mall Cuban spot.
We are also perfectly situated to take advantage of the critically acclaimed and still growing craft beverage scene in Virginia, with many award-winning wineries, breweries, cideries, and distilleries within Waynesboro and nearby.
