Some Virginia dining rooms were already old when the country was brand new, and a handful of them still set tables every week.

This Unassuming Tennessee Cafe Serves Biscuits and Gravy That Locals Can’t Stop Talking About

A honey bun goes on the grill here, and nobody thinks that’s strange. It’s simply part of the morning at a small, cash-only diner where biscuits and gravy get the most attention. I like how plain this place keeps things. The doors open at 6 AM on weekdays,...

Locals Swear by the Giant, Juicy Cheeseburgers at This No-Frills Tennessee Burger Joint

The burgers here are half-pound patties, hand-pattied and cooked fresh to order. That means you’ll wait around 20 minutes, and nobody seems to mind one bit. The dining room holds only a handful of tables. A few more sit outside on a back deck. The building is old, simple, and clean, which feels exactly right for a place this focused on food.

Hensley is back at Carter Fold this Saturday night

HILTONS, Va. — The Carter Family Fold is back in action after a week off for Halloween, and will welcome Trey Hensley & His Bluegrass Band back to the historic venue this Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. Trey Hensley is a Grammy-winning guitarist, singer, and songwriter from Johnson City, Tennessee, whose musical journey has been intertwined with the Carter Family Fold since childhood. A true prodigy, Trey first stepped onto the Grand Ole Opry stage at just eleven years old, performing alongside Marty Stuart and Earl Scruggs. Not long after, he met Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash at the Fold, where he performed with members of the Carter Family and later played at June Carter Cash’s birthday celebration—an early milestone that helped shape his lifelong connection to traditional music. Raised in nearby Telford, Trey began singing gospel at age six before discovering bluegrass guitar, quickly developing the fiery flatpicking style that would become his signature. His early career included several acclaimed bluegrass recordings with his band Drivin’ Force, produced with guidance from Tom T. Hall. Over the years, Trey has shared the stage with icons including Ricky Skaggs, Charlie Daniels, The Oak Ridge Boys, J.D. Crowe, Peter Frampton, and
