Love history? Love culinary travel? You may just want to head to Williamsburg, Virginia, this summer. There, combine your love for both by visiting settings with their own unique histories.

Step back in time to 1772 when you visit King’s Arms Tavern in Colonial Williamsburg. Period décor meets costumed servers, and the menu gives a nod to the past without making your modern-day tastebuds balk.
Shields Tavern, meanwhile, might not have the same longevity, but the vibe is similar. Again, live entertainment and colonial-inspired recipes take center stage.

For more, you can also book a Taste of History package, offered by Colonial Williamsburg. The package is available through the end of the year and includes everything you need for a historic (and tasty) getaway. You’ll get nightly accommodations in historic lodgings, a $100 food and beverage credit for use in a historic tavern, admission for two to the Historic Area & Arts Museums of Colonial Williamsburg, and more.
For even more fun, consider timing your visit with a food or drinks-focused event in Williamsburg or the nearby vicinity. Williamsburg Whiskey & Wine Weekend is coming up, June 27–29.
