Roots at 657 Cafe and Local Market - Chef Rich Rosendale's All-Day American in Lucketts

[ktmoomau]

Roots 657 Market and Cafe is right outside of Lucketts, VA and on the weekend, does a fair business with the vintage crowd and etc.  We stopped in for a snack and split the roots salad with feta and sweet potatoes topped with turkey (big chunks, but seemed freshly roasted then chilled a bit).  The salad was lightly, but thoroughly dressed and was nice.  Mom and I also got some potato chips and glasses of chardonnay.  All the food coming out around us (burgers, sandwiches) looked pretty good, and the fries looked fresh cut.  They had a small but decent selection of wine, beer and cider and they had some desserts that looked good.  We didn't check out the market side, but it seemed to have pottery, wine, candies, etc.

Anyway, if you are doing the vintage loop and don't want to go into downtown Leesburg, this is an option, it is order at the counter, find a table and your food comes out.  It was pretty busy when we came in, but we had no problem getting a table, and the food came out quickly (of course all our items were cold).
