Important Dining Announcement

Thank you for your patience as we were under renovation. We would like to introduce you to our newly imagined dining experience at The Inn at Virginia Tech, formerly known as Preston's Restaurant and Continental Divide Lounge.

The Loyal is rooted in the steadfast spirit of the Hokies, paying homage to the character of Virginia Tech by crafting a place to visit for the food, the people, and the spirit. 

We are welcoming in-house guests to visit us at this time.
