Galloway's Blue Berry Hill diner now open next to the BAC
Jim Wall is the day manager of Galloway's Blue Berry Hill.
Rachel Unruh of Troutville has opened a diner in the old Fried Pickle site called Galloway' Blue Berry Hill. The fifties style diner has loads of fast food on the lunch and dinner menu like burgers, fries, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, shakes, but it specializes in Cincinnati style meat sauce that serves as chili, sloppy joe or sauce over spaghetti noodles. The later being very tasty.
Galloway's is named after a friend of the family, David Galloway, who is a food critic and lawyer in Florida. He opened the original Galloway's back in 1952 in the state of Florida. The local one located next to the BAC on Sommers Way opened on October 12. The hours of operation are breakfast through dinner and you can order breakfast all day long. The business opens at 6 a.m. and closes at 9 p.m. seven days per week. Prices run from sides around $2 all the way up to steak over $10. Many of the breakfast specials are under $5.
Jim Wall, a very jovial fellow and a former Coast Guard member, Florida State football player and a gent with years in food service is the day manager of the diner. He floats from table to table greeting customers.
Homestead ice cream will be served along with homemade pies and cakes by Amanda Patten.
Galloway's plans to have special nights for schools like Troutville, Read Mountain and Lord Botetourt where the families can eat and a portion of the take is returned to the school. On Friday nights, they will also have live music.
Take out is available at 992-3888.

It is a perfect place when you want to spend a relaxing hour or two with family or friends eating good food and watching the world go by. You should save room for dessert! All of the desserts are made fresh from homemade ingredients just like grandma used to make, especially the Carrot Cake with cream cheese frosting – it is to die for!
