The Garage On Main
About This Spot
Stepping into The Garage On Main feels like pulling up to a beloved local hangout where the buzz of friendly chatter and the faint hum of classic tunes set a relaxed, welcoming rhythm. Nestled in the heart of Walhalla, this spot effortlessly blends a casual, family-friendly vibe with playful nods to its automotive inspiration, creating a space that encourages lingering over good company and hearty, thoughtfully crafted food.
The mood here is unpretentious and warm, with an easy-going pace that invites both a quick bite or a leisurely meal shared with friends and family. The atmosphere carries a lighthearted spirit—you’ll notice the hum of laughter, the genuine smiles of the staff, and the lively energy of folks winding down or gearing up for the day ahead. It’s the kind of place where the decor sparks curiosity and conversation, yet nothing feels staged or overly polished—just authentically local.
The menu complements this spirit with a comforting, approachable take on American classics. Whether you’re savoring a flatbread that balances fresh, melted cheeses with zesty sauces or customizing your own burger with familiar, well-loved toppings, the food feels like a small celebration of everyday flavors done right. Side salads and homemade potato salad add a touch of home-cooked simplicity, rounding out the experience with familiar tastes that settle beautifully alongside friendly chatter and cold beverages.
The Garage On Main thrives on the rhythm of human moments—the casual order-at-the-bar system encourages you to get to know the space and the people in it, whether it’s the lively bartender sharing a song or the host greeting a returning group like old friends. Here, the experience is made up of these small, genuine connections, framed by comfort and the casual joy of good food in good company.

We stopped here on our way down from the Stomphouse Tunnel. Super cute and Friendly host! My husband had the best po'boy Philly that he has ever had! I had a BLT and it was the freshest tomatoes and lettuce, I know only a BLT but it was awesome! This is a must stop restaurant.

Seems to be a popular local spot with cool decor and singing bartenders on this Friday night. Tons of friendly staff but you order your food at the end of the bar and pick up your own food at the food window. Work your way over to get your own water, lemonade or tea. Tip jar for the kitchen staff as it's all self serve once you catch someone's attention to order food. Plastic forks and paper plates for easy cleanup. Interesting place. Stop in and relax for a bit inside or outside.

Great tasting food. Had the Philly Po Boy and BLT w/side of Grandma’s Tater salad and strawberry shortcake for desert. Reasonably priced. Draft beers, wine, soda. Cash only, ATM on site. Casual dining inside or out. Friendly staff.

Can’t recommend this place enough! We had our annual fall event for our car group (crossfires) this past weekend, and we were driving through Walhalla. Due to some changes in our route, we decided to have lunch here at the last minute. Called about 40 mins ahead to make sure they had the size to accommodate our group of ~15 and parking for 9 cars. By the time we arrived, the host was standing by the “garage” entrance with a stack of menus ready to welcome us! As for the food, each entree was huge, filling, and delicious!! They do not hold back on the meats/protein! Each and every member of our group left stuffed & satisfied. They kept saying how good of a choice this was for lunch!! They are cash only, but there is an ATM there in case you don’t have cash! Next time we drive through Walhalla again, we’re definitely making a stop here!

Really nice restaurant. Very laid back and nice . Family friendly. No loud or obnoxious people. Professional employees that were very friendly and helpful with menu. Seating was prompt with warm welcome upon arrival. The menu is straight forward and easy to navigate. Nice selection. I ordered the shrimp cocktail with special soup of the day, wife ordered a burger with fries and cheese. Burger is very nice and soup was delicious. Really enjoyed the shrimp as well. Highly enjoyed our experience at this restaurant and enjoyed the Bingo games after the dinner. Would like to give a great experience with the music inside as well. Overall a nice restaurant. 5 start!
