I found a hidden gem in Frankford, West Virginia. This small community in Greenbrier County is home to Good Roads Bakehouse.



They are a small-batch country bakery and trade post with everything from cookies and pastries to breads and brownies.



And they must be doing something right because they were named to Taste of the South Magazine's 2022 Taste 50 list.



When I made my way here and found a parking spot in the gravel lot, I went inside to find a long line had already beat me there.



But, that gave me more time to peruse the offerings. I pointed to everything that caught my eye - a quiche, a brownie, a pastry - you get the idea.



One bite, and I could see why everyone is clamoring to this place. They have classics, but they're done well. Fresh and flavorful.



They even have pizza and pepperoni rolls, the latter of which are pretty tasty, though I haven't had a chance to try the former.



They even had a unique version of a pepperoni roll - a brisket kolache - that was quite good. Same concept with meat baked into a soft roll - but a new spin (at least for this area).



Grade: A

I have often passed the pastel colored shed along 219 and finally caught them open. Bones & Cones serves ice cream for pets and people. I ordered a salted caramel sundae with caramel, peanuts and whipped cream. It was overflowing with caramel, so it ended up a bit of a sticky mess. The peanuts were key, though, because they added some salt on top of the sweet, sweet, sweet. The ice cream was a little gritty, so I might try a different flavor on the next visit. Grade: B
