About This Place

Nestled in a charming converted gas station on 2201 Walker Ave in Greensboro, NC, Lindley Park Filling Station delivers a uniquely inviting dining experience that blends classic American comfort food with vibrant, contemporary twists. As a standout in the heart of the city, this family-friendly restaurant offers a warm, laid-back atmosphere perfect for everything from a casual lunch to a lively brunch with friends and family.

The menu is a delightful celebration of American cuisine with creative nods to vegan and gluten-free dining. Whether you’re craving the crispy, golden crunch of their famous Tator Tots served alongside the indulgent Bacon Cheese Fries, or you’re dipping into comforting bowls of the Vegan Tomato Soup or the velvety Roasted Garlic Red Pepper Bisque with the Amesbury sandwich, there’s a sensory feast waiting at every turn.

Signature sandwiches such as The Summerfield Burger, the smoky and sophisticated Chapman Street Burger and Fries, and the fresh, vibrant Salmon Wrap with Tater Tots showcase expertly balanced flavors and quality ingredients. The neighborhood-inspired sandwich selections—like the crispy Ridgeway with grilled chicken and bacon or the rich, tender Brice Street roast beef—offer a mastery of layering tastes that keeps patrons coming back for more. Salads, too, are crafted with care, from the tangy Filling Station salad dotted with craisins and bleu cheese, to hearty options like the Scott Avenue crab cake salad.

The weekend brunch beckons with irresistible Benedict options including the classic LPFS Benedict laden with smoked ham and spinach, the crispy yet tender Fried Green Tomatoes, and the indulgent Crab Cake Benedict. Sweet cravings are met perfectly with the tangy-sweet punch of their Key Lime Pie, an exquisite finish to any meal.

One cannot overlook the ambience—Mark D nails it by praising the fantastic outdoor seating, perfect for enjoying Greensboro’s pleasant weather, while Brittany Shearin’s observations about the chill, laid-back vibe and thoughtfully curated background music add to the appeal. The intimate but character-filled interior space enhances the cozy feel without compromising on comfort, as highlighted by Sonya Burkholder’s enthusiastic endorsement of the unique atmosphere and the impressive menu variety catering to vegetarians and gluten-free diners alike.

Customer service at Lindley Park Filling Station consistently stands out, too. Whether it’s Nick, the fantastic server noted by T H for impeccable attentiveness and prompt service, or the knowledgeable waitstaff admired by A Bit of Carolina for guiding her to a perfect menu choice, guests feel genuinely welcomed and valued.

In essence, Lindley Park Filling Station is more than just a place to eat—it’s a thoughtfully crafted experience that marries nostalgia with fresh flavors and inviting hospitality.

    Location is fantastic and they offer oudoor seating. The 4 of us ate here mid-afternoon on a Sunday. It was fairly busy, fairly loud, close quarters for seating. We chose outdoors due to the nice weather and better spacing. We ordered 3 sandwiches and sides. My wife's turkey sandwich was excellent. Her sweet potato chips side was better with the ranch dip - just sayin'. I had the grits bowl and a cup of soup. The grits bowl was very, very good! Unique, flavorful, but the chef left the stems on the spinach - kinda like eating warm Dental floss. The soup was the star! Pulled pork soup woth black beans - juat wow! 2 portobello sandwiches with chips for sides were good. Service was kinda slow, but not horrible. Late with our first round, but timely afterwards. $104 after tip and 3 beers. This place is definitely worth a trip.

    An adorable converted gas station, with a nice spacious patio, small deck, and indoor seating. Nick, our sever was absolutely fantastic, a rare experience dining out today. The food was fresh, tasty, and brought out promptly. We enjoyed our visit.

    Fried green tomatoes is one of my favorites, I was happy to see it there on the menu. Sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive although it was slightly busy. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, chill and laid back with a variety of music that was nice to listen too. The food was pretty good. Will go back and try other items on the menu which looked very interested.

    Came to Greensboro to do a delivery and stopped by the Lindley Park Filling Station and it was such an amazing experience. Walked in and was greeted right away with energy and a smile. Sat down and had the best waitress. Asked for recommendations and she was so knowledgeable about the menu that I went with her favorite sandwich. Food was amazing (I had the The Madison Ave - her pick and Mom had Rolling Road) and came out quick. The feel of the restaurant was just what we needed during our busy time of the year, a real treat and nice break.

    Great lunch spot!! Outdoor and patio seating available but the inside is just as cool! It is a former gas station turned pub-like restaurant. It is a little small inside but has so much character and a cozy atmosphere! The food was....perfect! *chefs kiss* The menu variety is excellent for everyone, even vegetarian and gluten free! Must try if you're in the neighborhood. It is well worth it! I will definitely be back! *pictured is "The Waverly" and the Greek chicken special!*

    A Hidden Gem in Lindley Park — Lindley Park Filling Station If you ever find yourself in Greensboro, North Carolina, do yourself a favor and head over to Lindley Park — one of the coolest little vintage neighborhoods around. It’s the kind of place where sidewalks are lined with towering trees, people are out walking their dogs, riding bikes, and strolling to nearby restaurants, all surrounded by charming craftsman-style and vintage homes. Tucked right into this picture-perfect neighborhood is one of my absolute favorite spots: Lindley Park Filling Station. This place is a true neighborhood gem — cozy, casual, and consistently delicious. Their menu is full of unique, creative sandwiches (most of them cleverly named after nearby streets), hearty salads, delicious soups, and amazing grass-fed burgers. My go-to is always the salad sampler: a fresh house salad with their incredible honey balsamic vinaigrette, a scoop of egg salad, their southern pasta salad, and my personal favorite — the roasted red pepper rosemary chicken salad, served with warm pita bread. It’s the perfect mix of flavors, and it never disappoints. Today, I treated myself to a slice of their key lime pie, and wow — it was absolutely excellent. You can really tell everything is made in-house with care, from the sandwiches to the desserts. The service here is always top-notch too. Even when they’re busy (and they always are — which tells you something!), the staff is friendly, efficient, and welcoming. Lindley Park is packed with great dining spots — from Sticks and Stones Clay Over Pizza (best in GSO) and Emma Key’s Burgers to Freeman’s Grub and Pub, Fish Bones, Scrambled, and Hop’s Burger Bar. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this neighborhood favorite. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, it’s well worth a visit! If you are a High Point peep, it’s very reminiscent of Emerywood Fine Foods.

    I went to Lindley Park Filling Station for lunch with my cousin and had a great experience. The restaurant was smaller than I expected, but we were seated very quickly. The vibe was relaxed and welcoming, our server was friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious and very filling. Everything came out fresh and flavorful. I’d definitely come back again!

    Nice little place. Unpretentious. Comfy. Recommend. Good sandwiches / wraps. Nice selection of alcohol which I would really have enjoyed but I had a long drive ahead of me. It seemed VERY popular, I had to park in the empty lot of another business. Fast and very pleasant service. My server did forget to bring a soda I requested and forgot to check back with us, we had to wave her down. Overall nice place.
