Frank's Trucking Center

Not open on Sunday. Place was soso. I was so hungry and they were closed. Who closed a truck stop restaurant on a Sunday ??

Great service. Very friendly and professional navy veteran as a server. The maintenance man by name of Chester chec bathroom like every 5 mins. But what I didn't like about the bathroom which bugged me the fuc out was. In the stall, if you sitting down, the next stall got too much visibility in your stall. That shit gotta get reconstructed. That's literally my issue. My privacy. Had the dude been a creep he would've kept looking my way. But to my luc he didn't, pause. But yeah. Everyone seems to want to be there and want the business to grow. Love it. The chiccen and dumplings were awesome w salad on the side. I enjoyed the conversation.Very old school vibe. Nice looking place. I love the old gas pumps and old toys and art. Great amount of parking available on both side. Probably 60-80 spots total. And it seems like a good flow in and out. (Dirt lot)

Food was decent, prepared fast. Good portions for the price. The waitress on the other hand was a zombie. No personality, no energy, no give-a-damn. I would grab food to go it I was passing by and hungry and eat it in my truck but would not go out of my way to eat here. I rank my decisions to eat somewhere again as:1 star - if someone else buys it I won't eat it, I would rather go hungry.2 star - if I'm hungry, no other options are open and someone buys it - I would consider eating it3 star - I'm ok with eating it as long as someone else pays 4 star - I will eat again and pay for it and be a semi-regular customer 5 star - I will travel for good food and pay good money and be back on a regular basis and maybe even pay for yours just so we can go

So if you want to get screwed feel free to mosey on down to franks trucking center and pay 8.73 for bullshit qt of oil. @ 7-11 a qt of 10-40 was $5. 7-11!!!!!!!http://www.frankstruckstop.com/ not who they used to be thats for sure. Review: April 24th 2022.

Franks is a throw back type of truck stop/restaurant.We've reviewed them before and really enjoyed it. Most of the employees are excellent...but there is always that "one" Not sure of her name but she has the coldest personality and has ZERO business being a server.The first picture is of her.There are two other servers that we have encountered and they are more than friendly and do an excellent job.I'm not sure if it's the pool of people that Franks has to choose from or if it's their pay rate.Either or, in the long run, it's not a really bad place to go.

Good service but wasn't very happy with the meal good for the price just thought the tenders would be real not the frozen ones. Waitress did keep my cup full service was great.

Horrible, horrible food! Roast beef was like sandwich meat not the juicy chunks of roast beef you expect. Mashed potatoes were just plain old instant potatoes. Biscuits were flat as a pancake. Couldn't even enjoy all you can eat spaghetti night because it was awful! The reviews on other places said this was a good place but it is not! The only good thing was the poor waitress who was by herself trying to take care of everybody! Do not eat here!

This is my go-to place when I am on the road in the Norfolk area.I have had the chance to meet the new owners, and they are genuinely interested in breathing new life into this truckstop of a bygone era. They do have some minor inconveniences. The showers are smaller and less updated than a TA or Flying J. They also have had staffing issues in the past, which necessitated the business not to be kept at 24 hours. However, the restaurant was good, the people were generally friendly, and I felt safe being there. I would rather support this small, family-owned business than a large-scale commercial operation.

New management sucks. The new owner and chef are narcissists and megalomaniacs and treat customers poorly not to mention the staff. The parking sucks, word is they're making it for amazon parking only so regular truckers are without a place to park for the night. The food is mediocre, I can get better fast food for cheaper!! The store is a joke and everything is over priced. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!

The restaurant is only open when they feel like it, it seems. Closed on mondays . Closed at 4:45 on a friday. Only thing open 24 hrs anymore is the fuel desk. Used to be a great place to get a good meal. Now I wouldnt know. Cant seem to catch them open.,
