It's always special for our family to dine at one of the Colonial Williamsburg taverns. Our…read morefavorite for decades has been Kings Arms. We have not not dined, or even spent much time at CW since the pandemic. After a hike behind Bassett Hall my wife and I enjoyed lunch. We arrived at noon and were promptly seated in an empty room. Around 20 minutes later the first floor was full. The atmosphere was cool and authentic. Nothing has changed since my previous visit. Our friendly waitress got menus and waters. I started off with an Apple Jack Old Fashioned utilizing Virginia Gentleman bourbon. We reviewed items on the menu that may have been served in the period. We started with apps. I got a salad, or "To Make a Fine Sallet". My wife crab croquettes. They pushed out first and we enjoyed. For mains. I got the pork shank, or "To Stew a Shoat in the French Way". My wife had "Chicken Hash", it was like a thick soup. The plating was beautiful and the taste matched. The old fashioned was disappointing because it was so weak. Service was decent, but not much attention. For dessert I got the bread pudding and wife chocolate tart. Both were outstanding! The bill was dropped on the table. It was around $150 w/ tip. Although pricey we had fun and felt like tourist just an hour from home. I would recommend.

The King's Arms Tavern is an interesting experience with decent service but nothing more to offer…read morethan that. I came here with my parents and girlfriend as a way to cap a nice day of introducing her to them and I was unpleasantly surprised by the visit. Despite the fact that you cannot park in front of the establishment , there was very little signage in the back to route you to where you needed to be to reach the host stand. Once we got there, there was some awkward interaction from the hostess to get us seated, and we reviewed our menus. We all opted for the peanut soup ($10 each) as an appetizer, and my girlfriend and I opted for the Roast Duck ($50 each) and my parents both opted for the Salmon with crab on top ($59 each). While the peanut soup was excellent (and available elsewhere), the roast duck was flavorless, the accompanying vegetables cold, and the mashed potatoes were not enough to save the entree. The "free" Sally Lunn bread and cornbread were quite nice, though again not enough to save the meal, nor was the bread pudding. My parents told me they liked the salmon meals but without sampling it I have to take their word for it. I risk seeming ignorant here so to be clear: I have enjoyed a number of elevated meals where the high prices were entirely justified by the quality of food, level of service, and upscale atmosphere. King's Arms failed in every respect: the food was middling at best, the service was okay but failed to make enough callbacks to avoid running out of water, and the ambiance was spoiled by a large party with eight children they decided to seat in the middle of the room, thereby ensuring a loud distraction for everyone. While this was indeed an interesting experience from a historical perspective, it is utterly unfit to charge the prices it does and I strongly recommend against coming here. The extra star is for the soup, definitely seek out the peanut soup (but do it somewhere else). Overall: 2.0 stars ---- Pros: - The peanut soup is excellent, as is the Sally Lunn bread - The historical experience of dining where those in antiquity have is quite cool. Cons: - By fine dining standards, the rest of the fare here is laughably bad. - The service is decent but nowhere near where it should be given the airs they put on. - Prices are exorbitant and horrifying to anyone with an eye for value. - Directions and parking are an additional pain point. - If you know you have a large party of children, plan seating accordingly. This is an awful way to ruin the experience of everyone else who is paying a lot to be here.

This Chick-Fil-A is not part of the main chain restaurant network- so no using the app, no gift…read morecards, no rewards, etc. Its part of the campus dining program, and uses Grubhub as their main ordering system. The staff was very friendly and nice to me personally, but in the front of the store is probably not the best place to be having very loud conversations about how much you are getting paid or if you like working there or not. The food is pretty standard fare for a Chick-Fil-A. There is a decent amount of seating available but a chuck of it is hidden around the corner for some reason. Its a decent place to stop if you need something quick near campus.

Then the girl in front of us decided she'd rather talk to the woman in the car in front while the girl to our left took 4 cars in the same amount of time.

The hostess was kind of challenged in being able to keep up with just the few parties waiting to enter... service from her was very slow and aloof. Once seated, service was great. The selection of what they give in the in the "continental breakfast" was great, as it was a typical full buffet, just not their specialties and honestly, that was all I needed. The eggs were decent. The English muffins were hard and stale, clearly left out from the day before - yuck. The bacon was great. The venue was nicely decorated in the typical Williamsburg period décor, which is appealing considering it's the norm for the area. Overall - I'd definitely not come here for a meal I had to pay for, but for a complimentary meal, it'll do.

We are a middle aged couple, and sometimes when we have the kids with us we review from that perspective as well. We were traveling for Thanksgiving and they had a pre set menu for $48 a person which included an appetizer of Winter soup, the main dinner and as amazing! The turkey was cooked perfectly, not dry! The stuffing was to die for, the mashed potatoes full of creamy flavor, and don't get me started on the collard greens! Just give me the whole pot!! They KNOW how to do collards. The desert was also very good, pumpkin pie with butter pecan ice cream. Overall the place was great, my only issue was that you had to make a reservation (which I get) but we didn't have one and figured we would try anyway. So we walk in and ask if there is any available seats... mind you I saw like 4 full open tables, a long high top table with 10-12 seats available... she looks at her list and starts counting, asks if I'm ok with a high top, I say yes, so we take the seats at the long table that seats like 12 as a shared table. So were there for a little over an hour and not one of those available tables when I walked in were used. I am not sure if they have in place where if your 10 minutes late for your reservation then you forfeit your table. Because paying customers would have liked that table. But the food was amazing and that made up for it. With tip, Thanksgiving dinner was about $149 for 2 people.

I used to come with my ex-husband and they had a breakfast menu for lighter fares with a yogurt parfait, oatmeal, etc. I ordered the only thing on the menu with egg-whites and they literally told me they were out. Christ. Everyone's food was cold, our server would disappear for 10 minutes every time we asked for anything, and he forgot to ring up the only thing my husband ordered - so they had to go back and make it and then came back 10 minutes later and said they were out of soup!? So, they made him a grilled cheese and then didn't even take it off the bill... Unimpressed, big-time. Best part was the gift store. Their menu is awful, the food was lukewarm at best, service was bad. No reason to come back at all... and I won't.

Lots of tables and chairs, good for big and small groups. Also has the country stories up front to browse and shop at if you have to wait. Food: 3/5: Chicken and dumplings were good. Ample portion. Pinto beans side- not good, no flavor. Fried apples: were nit cooked as good as the last time I was at a Cracker Barrel. Corn bread-very dry. Will go back and try other items.

My husband and I each got one of their special meal deals -- $5.99 each for a double cheeseburger (husband), loaded jumbo hot dog (me), crinkle fries, and small fountain sodas. The double burger was disappointing. While the bun was tasty, and it was served hot, the burgers tasted like frozen burgers, were relatively small, and were served "plain" -- without lettuce, tomatoes, or any other add-ons. The hot dog was tasty, served with chili, mustard, and raw onions though the mustard was a bit heavy for my taste. Crinkle fries tasted fresh, and were hot, but a bit over-salted. Our go-to fountain drinks were Diet Dr. Pepper, but they tasted watered down. Value (5/5). We received a good amount of food for under $7 each (with taxes), a reasonable price in this inflationary period. Staff/service (5/5). Staff were excellent. We were waited on promptly and politely. Ambiance. (5/5). Fine for a fast food restaurant. Clean. Almost no additional patrons when we were there. Location off I-64.
