Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Colonial Williamsburg

Great go to place. They never miss a beat. Even better when warm outside.

Amazing experience! Very nice service and explanation from chef’s. Staff was on point.

Bookbinders: 4.86 ⭐️ We got a premium parking spot directly in front of the entrance. 10/10 *it is a Tuesday so set your expectations accordingly* The host staff was very friendly. They asked me ahead of time if it was anyone’s birthday and put the birthday guy’s name on the menu. Nice touch. 10/10 The owner greeted every table and introduced himself. Very smiley. Personablele guy. 10/10 The Cajun tuna was amazing. 12/10 The scallops were one minute overcooked but I think it may have been from sitting waiting on the rest of the food to be ready to leave the kitchen. 8/10 The ribeyes were not the best we’ve had. 7/10. The horseradish sauce was 10/10. The wedge was perfect. Fresh and crisp. 10/10 The clam chowder was 10/10. Both potato sides were 10/10. Our server was great. He was spread a little thin with other diners, but we weren’t in a hurry. He apologized for any delays. He recommended the Tuna and he was not wrong. He served and cleared like a pro. Kept the wine poured. Gave the birthday guest a slice of cake to close out the night. 10/10

We especially enjoyed the great customer service by Jenna. This was well worth the visit for a celebratory lunch. We will be back…and the crab cake sandwich amd mussels were really good.

It was a lovely experience. Bryen, our server, was attentive and conversed with us. The food was delicious and the noise level was perfect for our business dinner. If you go, you must have the Chesapeake Crab Soup, the best I have ever tasted.
