The license plates are the first things you see when you walk in. There is an interesting theme that makes it look and feel homey. K&L is my favorite restaurant in Hopewell because it has a family-friendly feel and great food even though they only take cash.
One great thing about K& L is it offers a family-friendly environment. They have coloring sheets for all the children that walk in to make them feel at home. So if you’re looking for a place to get together with your family then I would definitely recommend going to K&L’s BBQ. The prices for the sides are $2.25 each and the sandwiches/ salads are $5.00 up to $10.00 dollars each. They don't sell any alcoholic drinks. It is represented as a place where it is good for groups of people to come together and eat and watch the TV, possibly football together, which makes it a great family-oriented place.
Though it’s a great family-oriented place to come together and eat, we can’t forget about their amazing meals! They're all made from scratch, even their homemade desserts. Their juicy, tangy Virginia-style barbecue is some of the best in the area. They also offer takeout and have weekly events. They make weekly chicken and dumplings on Thursdays and they’re famous for their double-stacked BBQ. The smell is amazing. Imagine you walk in and all you smell is the juicy and steamy food cooking on the grill in the back.
K&L does only take cash, but I'd argue it's worth the inconvenience. The price of the food is definitely worth it. There is an ATM in the front for those who usually don’t pay with cash and only pay with a card. They also accept checks. Another reason K&L is worth the cash-only inconvenience is their customer service. The waitress serves it with a smile, and they’re always quick to strike up friendly conversations with guests. One employee said, “Everything at K&L’s is all about the customers.”
You can find K&L at Cavalier Square where you can also find groceries and retail stores. They’re closed on Saturday and Sunday, but they’re open the rest of the week from 11AM-7PM. You can call them at (804) 458-4241 or learn more at their website.
