Local Bites

If you are staying in Covington or Clifton Forge here is a list of our favorite local bites! However, if you have time, we HIGHLY recommend heading just a bit further down the road (35ish minutes straight down the highway) to Lewisburg, West Virginia (where Brooke's Medical School is). Lewisburg has an adorable town center with cute shops and many options for breakfast and dinner which we have also included in this page. On Friday, June 3rd, Lewisburg will be celebrating First Friday after 5. Shops will be open late and the galleries will be exhibiting new artwork. There will be live music and Open Mics scattered around town. If you are looking to have a really fun and unique experience in a gorgeous town this is where we would recommend you go!

General Lewis Inn

General Lewis Inn

1236 East Washington Street, Lewisburg, WV 24901

Absolute hands down our favorite place for breakfast and dinner. Located in Lewisburg, West Virginia (30-40 minute drive from Covington and Clifton Forge, respectively), it is absolutely beautiful. On Saturday you can also order off their brunch menu. We recommend starting your Saturday morning here then checking out the adorable downtown before heading back to get ready for our wedding.

Right in the heart of Clifton Forge (and less than 15 minutes from Hampton Inn) is Jack Mason's Tavern and Brewery. This no frills Tavern is a place we have eaten often for a quick bite.

Michael's

Another local pizza and sandwich shop a little further into town (about 10 minutes from Hampton Inn). We recommend the roasted turkey sandwich - they roast their turkeys daily!

Cat & Owl Steak & Seafood

110 Karnes Road, Covington, VA 24426

This restaurant has been around for over 45 years but still somehow remains hidden in our small town but only a 10 minute drive from Hampton Inn. It definitely reminds you of dining in the 80's.
