    James Burke House is a quaint lunch-only place occupying a old brick home. The menu and specials are lunch-oriented, including mainly sandwiches and salads, and a few special dishes like quiche. Prices are very reasonable. Not elegant but the surroundings have a certain charm and the food was delicious. Definitely will return when I'm in the area around lunchtime.

    As always I love here. My husband & i visit at least twice a month. The food is outstanding as well as the variety of teas they have. We always get the potato patch! Diane, the owner is both personable and sweet every single time!

    Congrats, you just found the best place for lunch in Covington, VA! Food is fresh and most items home made. I had a trip to The Courthouse and was found guilty - guilty of enjoying it! My wife enjoyed a baked potato with mozzarella draped bacon. Great ambience in an 1800's house, friendly staff, and more than reasonable prices. Eat here soon, and often!!!
