About this restaurant

Charming
Great for fine wines
Good for special occasions

The Gabriel Archer Tavern was built in 1987 on footprints of an old farm shed. Today, its mission is to provide a memorable farm-to-table dining experience that's both delicious and nourishing.

In addition to a half-acre produce garden and greenhouse on site where lettuces and herbs will be grown, our chef works hard to find local farmers as partners in producing a menu oriented towards fresh and seasonal specialties.

Our wide variety of fresh selections from our unique menu will guarantee that everyone in your party leaves with a smile.

We enjoyed patio dining for lunch this afternoon. The setting was lovely. Outdoor dining provides a quieter environment. A nice concise lunch menu provided a variety of entrées. I enjoyed the shrimp street tacos with two glasses of wine from Williamsburg Winery. Not someplace that is easy on the wallet for lunch on a regular basis. But for a treat or special occasion it’s a win!
