Not much has changed since George Washington frequented Campbell’s Tavern for its delicious seafood in the 18th century. Dig in to locally sourced shrimp, scallops, and fish, and be sure to try Christiana’s famous Crab Cakes, Fried Chicken, Sweet Potato Muffins and Spoon Bread.
The street address is 101 S. Waller Street, with ample parking behind the tavern.

He had the pea soup and I had the salad which were good but the pea soup would have been amazing with some ham in it. We both had the fried chicken which was quite tasty and 3 decent sized pieces. It was served with string beans over thin slices of ham with made the beans taste amazing! My husband had the fried fish which was a full trout with string beans too. He had grumbled before it arrived how the option was fried and he disliked fried food. Anyway his dish arrived and he shut right up. He was very pleased and really enjoyed his entree as well as a piece of chicken too! Apple pie was FANTASTIC and the chocolate cake was very very good. There was a traditional fiddler playing and he really added a lovely ambience. We proceeded on to the 9 pm ghost tour by Colonial ghost inc which was a perfect solution to walk off our delicious Christiana Campbell dinner and a fantastic tour.

To hear each other we were forced to speak loudly. The noise level continued to raise. I started to request our party be moved but our food arrived, so we stayed. I cannot understand when all 3 parties were placed less than 6 feet apart. There was so much space not used.\nThe service was very slow. The waiter did not ask if we want more drinks, refilled water only one time. When salads were delivered, we never had the chance to request pepper. After finishing the entrees, we had to wait a long time to place the desert order. By now it was getting late, so we requested the desserts to go. Again, another long wait.
