Entrepreneur Brings Soul Food Restaurant to Downtown Hertford
by Laura Bush Jenkins
Since its relocation to downtown Hertford this July, ‘Bout
Thyme Kitchen has created a buzz serving popular favorites
like fish, hamburger steak, wings, and stir fry.
Formerly located in the Old Train Station building on Hughes
Boulevard in Elizabeth City, entrepreneur Alvan Overton moved
the restaurant to a simplified location that “was a turn-key
restaurant, ready to go.”
At a Glance
109 N Church St, Hertford.
Open for lunch, M-F and Sunday
Daily Specials include: Taco Tuesdays,
Wednesday wings, and Thursday Stir Frys.
‘Bout Thyme Kitchen, serves lunch Monday through Friday and
Sunday from 11-4. 11:30-1:30 is naturally the busiest time, but
Overton noted there is rarely a wait since many diners call in
their order for pick up.
Catering & Private Party Space Available.
Overton looks forward to interacting with the townspeople who
make Hertford a friendly, welcoming place.
“I want to see the community thrive,” he said, praising Hertford
for its quaint atmosphere and loyal people.
This fall, Alvan and his team will tweak the menu and bring in
more popular favorites such as chef and cobb salads, along
with soup and sliders. The group will incorporate Thursday and
Friday night dinners as the restaurant grows.
If you would like to order a special lunch on a busy day or plan
a delicious meal for a catered event, contact ‘Bout Thyme Kitchen
at 252 404 2550 or 252 333 7713.
