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.

    We dined with three young girls who had never been to Williamsburg before. They enjoyed their food immensely and loved how the staff pampered them. Thank you.

    We had such a wonderful dinner and experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting colonial Williamsburg. The food was amazing and our waiter was absolutely wonderful. In our group people had the steak and the fried chicken and everyone loved it. The spoon bread was so tasty and the sweet potato muffins were divine.

    We love the tavern experience at Williamsburg and have had many wonderful experiences/dinners, however this time at Christiana Campbells’s was a little challenging. The food was good, the waitress friendly and the music excellent, but the timing was off…. The food was delayed a long time in delivery, and had cooled prior to arriving at our table. The waitress was missing much of the time, and we had to wait a while to request drinks, extra sauce and give our order for dessert. We typically take around 90 minutes for dinner, and we were there 2 1/2 hours… Even so we will be coming back because we love the taverns and maybe next time things will go a little smoother!

    The food is not good. Flavorless. The oysters were very bad somehow. And it’s expensive. For the money, it wouldn’t be hard to serve decent food.

    We had a wonderful meal. Our waitress had a great sense of humor. I would recommend it highly. There was even a guitar player who came in and serenaded us. It was a great experience!

    I had been looking forward to our Thanksgiving dinner reservations for so long only to be completed disappointed in the end. We ended up with one of the last reservations of the evening, which is fine, however the pre-fixe menu items still took an hour and a half to even be delivered to our table and when it was, it was terrible and incorrect. Our turkey dinners were the discards and my oldest child's entire meal from beginning to end was wrong and there wasn't anything that could be done at that point.

    To put it mildly, ours was poor. For what we paid for a Thanksgiving dinner for two, it was our first and last dinner at this location. We arrived at 5:30 and received our drinks and appetizers almost immediately. About 50 minutes later we finally received our dinner which was cold. We sent the dinner back and the replacement dinner wasn’t much better. We noticed that others were sending back their dinners too. Without a doubt, this has been one of the worst Thanksgiving dinners ever. Our server suggested complaining to the third party agent that we made our reservation through. At this point it’s time to move on and mark this place off the list of good places to have dinner. Done!

    Thanksgiving dinner on our own for the first time in 46 years. The staff was wonderful and even though she was incredibly busy, Emily couldn't have been nicer or more welcoming and the food was great. Enjoy the excellent guitarist who got all the children to sing along. We had an excellent time.
