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.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Christiana Campbell's Tavern offers a delightful blend of history and dining in Colonial Williamsburg. Guests rave about its "fantastic atmosphere" and "delicious food," with standout dishes like the seafood pye and crab cakes. The live period music and attentive service from staff like Timothy and Amanda enhance the experience, making it a must-visit for both history buffs and food lovers. However, be prepared for a "pricey" menu, and check options in advance for kids or specific dietary needs. Overall, it's a memorable step back in time with culinary charm.

    Campbell’s has been a favorite place to dine for me- a resident of over 50 years. Now my granddaughter is so excited to come here. The porch is my favorite spot.

    None of the entrees nor the bread were even warm. Salad was wilted. The dumplings were undercooked.

    It was the experience in an old tavern that was enjoyable. Did feel a little rushed in the end when not even asked if we wanted dessert, but just offered the bill. Seemed like a big attempt to flip the table in just over 1 hour, like 1 hour 4 minutes to be exact . However, we did ask about dessert and stayed for it.

    We went for Christmas dinner and this was the worst food we have eaten in a restaurant in a long time. The food was equivalent to a bad banquet meal. The appetizers were ok, but the entrees were horrible. Several of us had a grossly overcooked and flavorless flounder and lobster that was supposed to have a truffle buere blanc which was missing. The others ordered the steak that was chewing shoe leather even though they were medium rare. All the dishes were luke warm like they just came out of a hot box. We believe the food was cooked off-site in a banquet kitchen and delivered to the site. For the price we paid we feel we got ripped off.
