Through The Ordinary Door: Shields Tavern | Colonial Williamsburg (2024) Full Tavern Exploration

Amidst the hustle and bustle of Colonial Williamsburg's historic area, an unplanned late lunch led us to a hidden gem we had long desired to explore: Shields Tavern.

Nestled along the iconic Duke of Gloucester Street, Shields Tavern's simple outdoor concessions-style food menu surprised us. Without hesitation, we decided to grab a quick meal and then we would find a spot to dine outside
somewhere in the city.

What followed was an extraordinary adventure—a journey beyond the threshold of this historic tavern, transporting us back to an era of tall tankards, warm hearths, candle-flickering parlors, and long wooden tables. A rustic public house once bustling with cider and ale-sipping, revelrous patrons during colonial times.

Though devoid of 18th-century regulars, savory aromas wafting from the kitchen, tavern workers, and the melodic tunes of period musicians who perform inside Shields Tavern when fully operational…our impromptu afternoon meal led us into uncharted territory we had only dreamed of navigating up to this point.

In the latest Quest Capsule, join us as we explore the floors and many rooms of this fascinating 18th-century tavern. An interlude for savoring some simple, flavorful food selections befitting the environment we fortuitously stumbled upon, before setting out again to continue the unplanned excursion.

With no time to don our finest attire or dust off powdered wigs, we dressed up our fromage feast burger and entered Shields Tavern, where the past meets the present in an extraordinary melding of food, history, and exploration.
