After serving as an Assistant to the Chef in the White House during the Nixon Administration, John Yarnall opened It's About Thyme as a French restaurant in a suburb of Philadelphia in 1974. In 1995, John relocated the restaurant to Culpeper and changed its menu to broader European fare. It's About Thyme endeavors to provide its guests the perfect dining experience: great food, friendly, attentive service, and a wonderful ambiance. A mainstay of Culpeper's East Davis Street for over fifteen years, the restaurant has developed a loyal following of locals and visitors alike.

We are here to serve you the best we can. Welcome to Culpeper and please come again!
