Fun for All by Pam W. at InsiderPages

A family atmosphere makes for a fun and relaxing meal. Burgers and dogs are the specialties along with the purple shakes. Kids love this place. The food is not bad but, if your looking for gourmet, this is not...

Wonderful, fun and delicious!!!

My husband and I have eaten there numerous times and loved the food, atmosphere and music! Especially the crabcake sandwiches!! We love to take our friends' children so we have an "excuse" to eat purple ice cream! The staff and owners could not be nicer. Highly recommend to all ages.

Yelp.com Review - by Caroline P.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a fun 50's diner with nonstop finger poppin tunes, cut outs of marilyn monroe on the walls and menu items like the james dean burger and big banana splits (someone was eating one for breakfast...

great shakes

Though a little pricey the milk shakes were unbelievable. Any hot day if you need a good classic shake stop by.

Bathrooms not too clean

WOuld like to have seen cleaner bathrooms but the food is good. Good shakes and the value for the kids is comparable.

The purple and black building is cool

The kids think it is fun to go there. We only get ice cream because I think the restaurant is kind of dirty. We can see them serving ice cream so I'm okay with that. If the bathrooms are dirty, which they are...

The shakes are thick and good and the little kids love it. A favorite place for the grandkids to go when they visit.

Yelp.com Review - by Jamie M.

4.0 of 5 stars. Diner food is my favorite and I'm really glad we found this place in VA beach. We do love the Silver Diner near town center but it can get a bit crowded at times. This diner was pretty much empty...

" A swank soda shop"

The Purple Cow has a 1950's air but not a lot more for the money. The soda fountain items are good but a bit dear. I did not eat there.

Never go back

We went here for lunch one time. We ordered a Chicken sandwich with fries. The waitress went to place the order and didn't come back for 15 minutes. When she finally came back, she told us that they were out...

Good Diner

Cool place to go for a great-tasting inexpensive meal and/or dessert. Staff is always nice and the new greenbrier location is just as good.

Not so good

They have wonderful chocolate milkshakes, but the food leaves much to be desired. I have tried it a few times and hav always been disappointed with the food.

I'll eat there, but I'm careful about the menu

Certainly the kids love the purple ice cream - shake or cone. But I am mindful not to order anything that would have a chance to spoil. (experience)
