Looking For Comfort Food? Try Food For Thought!



Every now and then, it's time for comfort food -- delicious, basic homestyle meals cooked the way you remember them. This is nourishing, real food without the haughty labels or trendy, dressy accoutrements.
If that's what you're looking for you'll find it at Food for Thought in Williamsburg, VA. Food For Thought restaurant should be a destination for any Williamsburg trip. The atmosphere is clean and colorful.  The background music is soft and subtle, allowing easy conversation and discussion.  The décor features biographical pictures of inventors, scientists, and social leaders while the walls display thought provoking quotes used to set the tone for a positive and enjoyable dining experience.  Several varieties of discussion cards are found upon the tables and help to spur thought charged conversation.
It's a unique concept: An intimate restaurant with good, basic food that actually encourages civilized conversation.
And Food for Thought is not just a visitors' favorite. It's also a prime destination for locals who regard it as an absolute treasure.
As you can see from the photos above we enjoyed the meatloaf platter and the baked flounder with grits and asparagus. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. And, the prices are very reasonable.
Plus, there's an excellent bar at Food for Thought as well as fine baked goods and desserts.
Food For Thought is located at 1647 Richmond Road about two miles west of Colonial Williamsburg  and  conveniently on the way to The Prime Outlets.  Though Food for Thought sits amid a sea of chain restaurants, the quality and freshness of the food and the caring service of its staff differentiates it from the everyday norm.
This is old-fashioned, affordable quality and personal service -- something that's all too rare these days. In fact, you will find the owner/operator, Howard Hopkins, regularly supervising the quality of the food and interacting with the guests to insure that the restaurant's wonderful staff is keeping up with your needs.
Don't miss this dining gem.
