Where To Eat

The Historic Jamestowne Visitor Center has three vending machines on the back patio with drinks, water and snacks. These vending machines are operated by Preservation Virginia through the museum gift shop. If you need assistance with the machines or change please see the gift shop attendants.

Mangolia's @ the Dale House, adjacent to the archaeological site along the James River.

Hours 11:00am - 4:00pm, 7 days a week.

The menu offers sandwiches, wraps and salads to the visitors, our special board changes daily. We work with local businesses to provide homemade baked goods, locally made jams, and honeys. We have a patio with an awning with plentiful seating to enjoy the scenery of the James River. You can check out our menu on the Historic Jamestown website. Or email us at Magnoliaatdalehouse@gmail.com to inquire about box lunches or catering!

Picnicing on the Historic Site is prohibited. However, there are two small picnic areas in the Visitor Center parking lot. They are located on the east end of the parking lot. The larger area contains eight picnic benches and the smaller area contains four picnic benches. Each picnic bench can seat eight adults or perhaps 10 students.

These picnic areas are "Leave No Trace" areas so we ask that you take your trash with you when you leave.
