A very peaceful and quiet entry on the list, located on a frontage road for Interstate 66. This LOVE sign features 3 letters relating to food, the O, V, and E.

1. Lee Hall (Newport News)
The most creative, unique, and tasty LOVE sign on this list for food is located in Lee Hall (a neighborhood within the City of Newport News). Every part of this sign has relations to food.
First, the L is shaped as the edge of a cup of coffee, complete with the name of the business and its address. The O, like the Lynchburg entry, is shaped as a donut, this time with blue frosting. The V in this is a slice of pizza, with multiple toppings. The E is written with the underlined words "GLAZE AND GRIND", complete with a fork on the left side of the letter. All of this is over a painted blue fence next to the parking lot of the business, which is Dough Haus in Newport News.
