Our restaurant gets its name from former-owner Megan Pratt's great-grandmother, Virlie Pickel, born in Tennessee in 1898. She raised nine children in her mountain home. Her kitchen was a local gathering spot for good food and conversation, where her friendly spirit inspires us today at Virlie's Grill.

Love the food but concerned about the water. Pittsboro is known for having poisonous drinking water and officials say that it is almost impossible for them to totally clear the poisons from our drinking water. The grill doesn't have a reverse osmosis filter at their location so I can't reasonably drink sweet tea, coffee, or anything else mixed with the water. It's not safe to drink. I'm hoping that this review will wake up the owner and force them to install a 100% filtration system at the grill. Customer safety should be their first concern.

This is my go to location for home style cooking! Above all, the service is outstanding. The staff make everyone feel like family! The menu is great American traditional fare. No nonsense favorites like meatloaf, burgers, fries, etc. But, they also have a wide variety of food, including entrees that surprised me. I love their breakfast and their prices make Virlie's one of the best deals in the Raleigh area! The location, the atmosphere, the service and the value make this one my all time favorites!

Excellent Hamburger, no need for condiments! Bun was fresh and hamburger was very tasty flavor. Fries were hot and no need for additional salt. Onion Rings were extremely well done! Must do when in Pittsboro.

Delicious food! My family just moved to this area looking for a place to grab some breakfast when we stumbled upon this wonderful establishment. The portions are huge and at a decent price. Staff was kind and quick to my takeout order. I’d recommend this place to anyone who’s in town and looking for refreshing tasty food.

Fried flounder, fried okra and cole slaw with hush puppies. The flounder okra and puppies were very tender - not over cooked and not choked with too much breading. Just the right amount of seasoning too. I think the okra was cooked from fresh. No corn bread or biscuits tonight though... I was looking forward to a biscuit. :-) I managed to choke down 4 hush puppies instead. I might live. The wait staff and cashier were very friendly. Everyone there is hard working. They get your order and drinks the moment you sit down. All in all an excellent choice for a Southern home cooked supper.

This charming southern diner is top notch! The owner walks around and makes sure you’re comfortable and happy. I got the bacon waffle combo with sausage patties, eggs and hash browns. Delectable! For breakfast this is a must taste!

Our service and food was outstanding. My husband had the homemade meatloaf with gravy and mashed potatoes and green beans with a side salad. My husband said that the meatloaf was the best he has eaten. The green beans or seasoned just right but they delicious flavor that wasn't overpowering. The brown gravy was the perfect thickness. The mash potatoes were thick and creamy. We got a slice of there Chocolate Chess Pie for later.
