First, this restaurant is legendary! The food is authentic and quality! I love their hand patted hamburgers. Breakfast is top tier! If you are looking for a breakfast spot in Covington, don't count them out!! The food is great!! read more

Traveling through town, this stop for lunch was a short detour off the free way. Lots of items on the menu and I chose the burger for my lunch. Happy to have a salad as an option for a side. Burger was great. Buns were a bit toasted. Burger was cooked with a smashed burger style. I may have stole a couple of fries from Husband and they were crispy and had a nice seasoning. Service was great. We were served and got our food quickly but we never felt rushed. Parking was on the street where we found a spot just around the corner. Very much a diner vibe that felt local and cozy. Nice stop. read more

Service was extra slow but the food was great, especially the fried okra which was done perfectly. Just the right motor breading and cooked to perfection, not hard and chewy like many places. However if you are not used to the town (my first visit) BEWARE of the tree out front with a very low brick edging. I didn't see it and went sprawling on the sidewalk with my leg across the bricks. Ouch! Still hurting after almost 2 weeks. read more

Comfort food in a warm small restaurant . Food is delicious and Mr Hamm and the other employees are warm and friendly.

Great place for breakfast and lunch. You can't go wrong with this place. A wonderful family owns it....3 generations now. Southern home cooked food! Hamburgers, veggie plate, salads, everything! You must try the fried cucumbers. The service is great and the staff is friendly. read more

Always amazing food and service, weather you are dining in or an order to go. You can always count on quality food and service.

My niece came to town at breakfast time and we wanted to be near the square so we chose the Town House Cafe and in my opinion the only thing making this place worth going to is its location and that there are no other breakfast places during the week (besides bakery type items). We walked in and the server/hostess just stared at us. When we asked where to sit she brought us menus. It's a very simple menu (I'm ok with that) mostly just eggs and meat and white or wheat toast. Everything comes with grits but we asked if they had hashbrowns and she said yes. So I ordered scrambled eggs, bacon and hashbrowns. The eggs were a bit slimy- looked like a kid learning to cook scrambled eggs for the first time. The bacon was mostly cooked (I guess I should have asked for it to be crispy). The wheat toast is like white bread with a brown tint to it. And the hashbrowns were patty's like they serve at Mc Donald's. I'm going to assume our server is just very shy and maybe even new because she was as personable as she could be. The location is excellent, the restaurant is clean so they have that going for them. I will not be coming back here but if you just want a hit breakfast this place will do. read more

January 2024: Southern food in the heart of Covington GA. Tastes like grandma's food. If you came to Covington and it wasn't for the vampire tv show high five! The lines at the restaurant featured in the show was huge so we walked around town and found this place. Food was ok, diner style. We got the country fried steak with gravy and it was a Saturday so we got some of the veggies of the day: potato salad, fried green tomatoes, Mac and cheese, green beans and yams. Food came with cornbread and a roll. It was my very first time trying fried green tomatoes and it was too salty for me. I'll try it from another place but I didn't like this one. The service was good and the people were nice and I feel bad to say it but I didn't really like the food that much. My husband enjoyed his meal. We went in January btw. read more

Very charming place. Seems like a local favorite. Service was great. Food was delicious. We got there at 11:56 am. Four minutes before breakfast was over and they still served us up some breakfast with a smile. If we ever make it back to Covington area we will make sure to stop by again. The waitress even overheard me say that I had accidentally dropped my bacon and without me asking or even knowing, brought me out another slice. read more

What a great little spot! We missed breakfast, so we decided to have lunch. This quaint diner felt very nostalgic. The server was quick to sit our table of five. All of the waitstaff had a great attitude. Our food was the star however. The pork chop sandwich, fried bone in chicken breast and the country fried steak was soooo good. I wish the gravy had a little more seasoning but it was nothing that some black pepper couldn't repair. The price was very respectable. Don't forget to try the candied yams! We left full and satisfied. The location is right in the center of town and there were many cute shops to check out after eating. It's worth a trip. Fried green tomatoes are crispy and delicious read more

Staff very sweet and friendly. The food taste fresh and wonderful. My pork chop is perfect- tender and juice with crisp crust. They have coffee mate, French vanilla creamer, which is my favorite so I'm very happy I love this little place. It would be fun to bring my husband for a breakfast date here. read more

The Town House Cafe - Pork chop breakfast with grits, eggs, & toast. - Cafes Near Me - Covington, Georgia

Adorable place set back in time. I had this place on my list for a while and I decided to go there for lunch. I found out that they close at 4pm and it was almost 3pm. Luckily I still had time to get a bite. They even took someone in for a sit down meal around 3:45pm. I noticed they do alot of take out orders as well. I had a bacon Cheeseburger deluxe and a sweet tea and all was delicious. The restaurant is offset from the town center but still in it so the views are limited. This allows for exploring the town center before or after eating. I think the place is family run and the service is great, I plan to go back and try more dishes. read more

I came here to visit. This was the fiery first restaurant that I had gone to for breakfast and within 15 min of eating me and both of my sons were sick to our stomachs. This place literally RUINED our entire trip to Georgia because we were stuck in the Airbnb sick to our stomachs... I WILL NEVER EVER GO BACK!! read more

Food and service was excellent!! The greens, rice and gravy, fried okra, country fried steak. My brother says they have an outstanding hamburger as well ! read more

This place was a nice find. It's homey and the customer service was superb. Reminds me of a spot where everyone knows each other. The food didn't take forever to come out. They have a fish option but it's only Tilapia no other option. There aren't many vegetarian options on the menu either. read more

I've been to Covington many times and can't believe I walked past this place! My buddy and I rode motorcycles to Covington last Saturday when we happened by The Town House Cafe! WOW we both ordered the meat and 4 sides, the food was awesome!!! The price was way affordable. Our server, well she was amazing. We will be back every time we pass thru Covington. What a find. read more

Doesn't look like much walking past or in but oh my my. We came in on 3:30 on a Monday and they close at 4. Was a little bummed because they have yummy vegetable options you can't get at that time but myself and my partner ordered a pork chop sandwich. It was the best we ever had! Perfect on point well seasoned but not salty, greasy or over breaded. Additionally, the place is spotless!! I can see why they have a 100 on the health report!! They were even cleaning the outside of the catsup bottles etc. the young lady waiting on us was pleasant and gave great service. Everything was cooked to order! It was so good we ordered another to go. While we were waiting we decided to try the sweet potato pie! Mannnnn again may be the best I have had. Light flavorful fluffy and not too sweet all flavor! Also they even ask you if you order warming up. Met the owner Mr Hamm very nice gentleman and the shop has been there since 63! Service was amazing and the prices were more than fair! Definitely one of my new favorites and support a small business owner and black owned!!! read more

It's a pretty good place to eat. I love the atmosphere. The service was okay, could have been better though.

The food is pretty good and the employees are friendly. It has a lot of rich history.

I have eaten here for over 29 years and still enjoy it as much as always. It's a cafe that does everything well. The food is always cooked perfectly, the service is always on point, and I love that it's just an old school place. Highly recommend it read more

Good food, good service. Chicken tenders were moist and breading was tasty. Seasoned fries could have used a lot more seasoning

Mr. Hamm's family has been serving up delicious southern food here for more than 50 years, and you'll be hard pressed to find better service, taste or prices anywhere! It's a favorite stop! P.S. be sure to try the fried pork chops, yams, fried tomatoes, fried cucumbers... well, okay... everything! ;) Nothing fancy here- just quality food and amazing owners. read more

My wife and I walked in and felt good vibes right away. We were greeted and told to have a seat anywhere. We sat across from a table of firemen from Covington. Always trust a place where the local first responders go. Other tables had what appeared to be regulars. My wife had a vegetable plate and I had a fried pork chop. The veggies were vintage southern with ham in the beans, etc. Cabbage was about as good as we ever had. The pork chop was lightly fried and tasty. Good iced tea as well. Will be back should we find ourselves in Covington again. Highly recommend. read more

We were in town for The Vampire Diaries, we chose this place as the last dine in meal before a sad goodbye. We chose it due to filming that had been done in The Vampire Diaries when Katherine was eating at the diner after taking the cure. It's very affordable and probably the most affordable dine in place in town, we only spent $24 for 3 meals. The food was delicious, just your typical breakfast food, and it was very good. read more

Friendly staff. Good food. Nice atmosphere. Cute small town diner. Would visit again.

My Sweetie and I had a late lunch here yesterday. We were greeted right away, found a table and our server came right over with flatware and menus. Drinks were on the table in 2 minutes. The menu had lots of options, and we ordered a cheese burger plate with fries, and the country fried steak and 4 veggies-fried okra, fried green tomatoes, mac & cheese and potato salad. Everything arrived hot, fresh and was delicious. Our new place for great food. Great prices too. read more

Great country-fried steak here. Crispy and tender. Cuts with a fork. Comes covered in brown gravy - yum. Mash potatoes can only be had on Wednesdays, which is sad, so followed the waitress' suggestion and tried the excellent potato salad. Not a fancy place, but service is friendly. Owner Mr. Hamm checked on us to be sure we were taken care of. read more

Food was delicious and service was quick! Everything was made to order. I ordered the steak, egg and cheese sandwich on wheat bread also with lettuce and tomato. My son ordered the steak breakfast. Omg, this food Is ALWAYS on point and I just love the staff. It's a great community jewel which has been around for years. If you are lucky the owner might even serve your food. He is such a friendly man with an amazing smile. Every time I'm in this town, this stop is a MUST read more

Superb restaurant. Great food and a lot of it for the price. Very friendly folks and pleasant customers. This is a really great place to eat.

Really good basic American food with good vibes and great friendly people. I highly recommend it. Very nice family friendly place. read more
