Clyde's at Willow Creek remains one of the top destinations for brunch in Loudoun county and surrounding area. Every plate was carefully made so that every constituent of the meal was the best it could be. The biscuits were a great beginning delivering a sweet taste to start followed by the quiche where not only the eggs were cooked to perfection, but the crust delivered its own unique and complimentary taste. The salad that comes with the quiche was undeniably crisp and fresh complemented by a good vinaigrette. Tye service was also on point.

Meal quality was way above the expected for a “bar and grill” atmosphere. Absolutely amazed at how good it was and especially given the price. Super good French Kiss Martini!!

We did not realize it was trivia night and it was much louder than we were used to. It was fine, we were still able to enjoy a nice bottle of wine and flatbreaads.
