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.

    Not great. Our history indicates that they’ll be out of things in spite of it being a minimal menu. Over priced for what you get. Yeah, we go when we’re here because ‘we’re here’, but we don’t set our expectations too high.

    Always a treat when in colonial Williamsburg. Good traditional food. Live entertainment. A little noisy but it provides an idea of a typical tavern of that time.

    I took out of town family there to experience the ambiance of eating in this Colonial Williamsburg tavern. The food is overpriced and the taste is mediocre. Our waitress was harried and very unprofessional as she was serving. She calmed down after her tables were served and was more cordial. I was disappointed that the "real" 18th century Christiana Campbell's owner did not give the talk about the tavern. This was done by our waitress. I will not be taking any more guests to the Williamsburg taverns. It just isn't worth it.

    A must do for delicious, authentic, period dining when visiting the historic area. Perfect service. My amazing server, Heather, provided just the right amount of attention, offered suggestions, and gave clear descriptions of the dishes I asked about. Her warm demeanor and expert service only heightened my experience. Amazing food, great drinks, and a perfect sweet dessert to end the night. I had the pleasure of sitting near two gentlemen dressed in authentic period outfits and was fixated on every detail of their attire. The musician who performed was talented and friendly, making for an overall delightful dining experience. 5 Stars from start to finish.

    Love Christiana Campbell's, it's like going back in time to visit a 1700's tavern. Staff are in period dress and a musician plays time period music
