50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Williamsburg

“Kingship coffee is so good I decided to serve it exclusively at my Bistro & Bakery. Viktor is expertly knowledgeable in the many facets of roasting and brewing, it is mind boggling. The customer service is a standard bearer for other local businesses.“

“When we arrived we were told the wait would be 20 minutes, but we're called to a table in 5 minutes. The waitress immediately came to our table and took our drink order. Drinks took 10 minutes then we ordered and our meals were done in 10. The service was incredible and food was perfect. would definitely recommend it“

“This place is everything you could ask for in a hotdog place. My only complaint is that we aren't local!!! we may or may not choose our next vacation location close by just to be able to come here again.“

“The 757 Key Lime is the “Best Ice Cream I have Ever Had”.

Eating it was a core food memory in my life.

The key lime was perfect, the little crust bits were perfect, and the marshmallow-y stuff in it added such good texture. The flavor and texture were just a match in Heaven.

No exaggeration. This was The Best Ice Cream I have Ever Had.

The key lime is only available every once in a while. Good thing or I’d be broke!“

“Outstanding seafood, a welcoming atmosphere, and impeccable service. Easily one of the best seafood restaurants in Williamsburg. Already looking forward to my next visit!“

“Delicious food and wonderful service.“

“We always eat here any time that we are in Williamsburg. I almost always have the same thing because it is just so damn good; hot pastrami sub and an order of fries. The sub bun is perfect and the pastrami serving is very generous and very flavorful and very filling too. The fries serving fills the plate and cooked just right. On our way back home, we stop by again and take a sub with us to enjoy that evening. This Deli has our strongest recommendation.“

“We brought my mother in law here for her first time and let me just say—it was love at first bite. The char-grilled oysters? Life changing. She was mid-sentence and just stopped to close her eyes and savor (I kid you NOT!) that’s when I knew we made the right decision in bringing her to one of our favorite spots. I’ve been coming here with my husband for a while now, and they never miss. We split the grilled fish (always fresh, always flavorful), and we request the chili oil on the side because a little goes a long way. Pro tip: their house hot sauce? We buy it every time we’re there. We also ordered the ceviche (refreshing, balanced, and beautifully plated, and their margarita is one of the few in town that actually tastes crafted—not syrupy. The War & Pisco cocktail was a surprise favorite for my MIL; light, sparkling, with a perfect hint of raspberry and basil. The vibe is cozy but lively, perfect for a date night or introducing someone to your go-to local gem. Every time we visit, the food is consistent, the service is kind but never pushy, and we leave talking about what we’ll order next time.“

“What a wonderful evening we had! We sat at the bar and were offered cocktail suggestions and pairings. The food was absolutely wonderful. The bartenders were very friendly and accommodating. The chef/owner came to see us after dinner too! We will remember this as one of our the best nights out!“

“We come here often from #RVA to their fun events! The drinks are wonderful, and the staff is so friendly! Their Luaus are a great way to transport yourself to Hawaii here in Virginia!“

“cute set up The owners were very friendly coffee, donuts, and bagels were all very good“

“Came here with my mother-in-law and will rave about the amazing kashmiri, sweet and tangy Chaat of the Day and lamb roth josh that tasted just as amazing the next day. 5. Stars!“

“Always a great time to play for these folks. The locals are friendly. The staff service is awesome. Always a great time to come out and play music for the community. Especially on Memorial day or Labor day. I'm hoping that they do more events like this they have concert series of performances by local acts. Always a good time here. So stop and check it out. They also have iPAs and homed crafted beers worth trying out. I don't drink but this place has multiple branches in the area. So you know they are putting out good products at a very reasonable price. Food is excellent and great service and great music. You can't go wrong here.“

“Definitely one of the BEST Italian restaurants I’ve ever been too! We are on vacation, and was blown away! The service, our waiter, and food was amazing! I highly recommend going here!“

“Best soft serve around! Old school ice cream“

“Alewerks where Santa goes for a cold one.“

“This place was clean, food was great but the service was lacking.“

“We have always loved walking Capitol trail with our kids, but having spoke and art there now makes it so much more enjoyable! First walk of the season, we stopped in for lunch and were totally unaware of the live music!!! What a great addition to this already amazing little place! Thanks for a great day!“

“Wonderful people, very knowledgeable. Learned a few things and had a great time as well as amazing mead .“

“An excellent diner in throwback fashion with Southern hospitality and tremendous food. Jackie our waitress was warm, charming and attentive. Great food, great ambience and friendly service. From a NJ native where diners abound, this one is a gem.“

“We Truly Enjoyed Our Recent Mother’s Day Brunch!!!!! The Service Was Great & Our Meals Were Delish ?“

“This is the best pizza I have EVER had !!!!“

“Great folks to work with! We had a club holiday party here, with over 70 people attending. The staff was great, and worked with us to quickly reschedule when bad weather forced a postponement. We had ample room for a catered buffet and a band. Bartenders were awesome. In warmer weather the outdoor patio would be a fantastic place for a private event, too.“

“Friendly staff with many different offerings of beers.“

“Stopped in today. Staff personnel were great and the coffee was amazing. Will definitely be a regular from now on.“

“We drive from Newport News every few months! Food is delicious and service is excellent!“

“Family run gem! My go to lunch spot! Best happy hr(5-8) in town!“

“We had a wonderful dining experience from the welcoming greeters at the door to our wonderful server. The food was amazing from pea soup to steak to dessert, and the punch bowl! The Pringle’s ginger beer drink was very good, too. My daughter loved the oysters. It was a wholesome experience with live music and authenticity in the details (even the silverware is made in Williamsburg). It was also a treat to eat somewhere where historical figures dined in colonial times, but also really an art form to serve a menu inspired by recipes from the 1700s (and everything tasted amazing and fresh). The service was pretty impeccable for the whole staff (lots of servers, greeters, and staff).“

“Great ice cream and excellent service!“

“Food was amazing! Nice serving sizes! Will definitely come back when I come back to Virginia!“

“Are there any locals living in Williamsburg? I saw online that this place is very suitable for retirement life. Can anyone introduce it to me?“

“Great food, great atmosphere, friendly staff and great wine“

“Great service and great food. Been three times and each time I’ve gotten Caesar salad that i shared with my husband. Best Caesar salad we’ve ever had. And also got the Huntsman Chicken as known as chicken parmesean the best anywhere. My husband had their salmon dish he said it was the best he ever had. Highly recommend“

“Great lunch spot! Neat to grab a bite while watching planes take off and land. The food is excellent, try the Reuben on brown bread or the chili.“

“I will drive the 35 minutes to go here often! Service is amazing and we looove their Sno and countless combinations of flavors!“

“Up until this morning, my family never had a negative experience at the Williamsburg First Watch. The food was always good. and the customer service top-notch. That changed today. It started with the waitress...she didn't offer any sort of greeting and, when my mother asked for a plate of bacon to share after I had ordered the "Trifecta" breakfast (with bacon, eggs over easy, and a multi grain pancake), the waitress asked me if I still wanted what I ordered and, when we sought suggestions, she stood silent. She gave us coffee when we asked, but poured hardly any in the cups and left us barely half a carafe. My eggs came over hard instead of over easy (as did my mother's, even though she asked for over easy too. The bottom of my pancake was burnt. (I took pictures of all of this in hopes that I could speak with the manager). I also ordered orange juice, which was never brought to the table. Our waitress then disappeared, so I had to flag down another waitress to get more coffee. creamers. and a few napkins. She at least was gracious enough to offer to do so. When I finally saw our waitress at the counter, I raised my hand to get her attention, and she gave me the "wait a minute" gesture. It took her five minutes to get to us. When she did come over, I asked her for what we needed, and she didn't seem overly thrilled about getting what we asked for. When she dropped the check, I told her she never brought my juice, and wanted her to remove that from the bill, which she did (with a half-hearted apology for that at least, after asking me if I still wanted it, which would have been pointless after the meal). Forty dollars for a meal experience worth less than half that. All-in-all, compared to past experiences, I can totally see why so many negative reviews have been posted lately.“

“Always a favorite when we are in town, from the pretzel, crab dip, blackened fish tacos to blueberry margaritas, you really can’t go wrong. Love the new location! See you again, soon!“

“Awesome staff, awesome food!! Great fun and relaxing environment to get together and chill!“

“When I originally put this review on FB, I chose "does not recommend". I was reading the response from the pub and noticed that it has been changed to recommends. I do not recommend. This is my original post: We ate here today and the food was very subpar and the prices were fine dining prices. We paid $18 each for a wedge salad that consisted of a half a head of iceberg three sliced cherry tomatoes and a drizzle of ranch dressing. It had about a half a tablespoon of bacon on it and a quarter tablespoon of blue cheese crumbles. Was very basic and for $18 I would expect a little more thought put into the construction and presentation of the salad. I ordered the fish sandwich and the batter coating was not cooked at all. I had to scrape it off in order to eat the fish. when I pointed this out to my waiter, his response was well is the sandwich at least a little warm. My friends burger was overcooked and both of our buns were stale they were not toasted but they were stale. She ordered brussel sprouts on the side and they were really mushy and did not have a lot of flavor and our dessert was very sloppily presented. I paid $150 for two sandwiches two salads and two desserts and it was all very subpar. I will not be eating here again. I will take my $150 and go someplace decent like Food for Thought or Le Yaka.“

“amazing food ... clean .... friendly and courteous staff“

“I love the Williamsburg Chocolatier! I buy these chocolates and candies for my renters as a thank you gift. They go crazy over them, the fudge is to die for! I have purchased about everything from this store and keep coming back for 2nds! So glad I found the Williamsburg Chocolatier at both Williamsburg Bazaar stores in the Williamsburg Premium Outlet Mall. What a delicious treat for me and my guests!“

“Thank GOD there is a decent bagel joint here. I got the egg everything bagels. They were authentic NYC style, out of the asiago but thats what I'm trying next. Friendly staff, quick service, reasonable prices and a very clean restaurant.“

“Love Aromas! My fiancé and I were in town for the weekend, we were recommended to Aromas from a local and it did not disappoint! The coffee (cold brew and latte) was great, the food was filling and fast and the atmosphere was lovely! We will be back next time we are in town!!“

“A fun place for family night out or date night! Awesome food & great service.“

“I really enjoyed my visit to Blue Talon Bistro. The food was pretty good, and the service was pretty good. The atmosphere is what made this place special. My wife and I sat outside and took in the view of Merchant Square. The weather was perfect, and we had a delightful time together.“

“very friendly staff, fast service, decent prices and the pho is by far the best I've had yet! I have recommended this place to everyone!“

“The House Dressing. IYKYK“
