Fodor's Review:

This 18th century-style chop house is where the finest gentry dined in Colonial days, and is still the best of the Historic Area's four Colonial taverns. The genteel surroundings imitate those experienced by Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry. Don't miss favorites such as peanut soup or Game Pye, made of venison, rabbit, duck, vegetables, and bacon in a wine sauce. Roast Prime Rib of Beef, tender pork, and lamb are on offer. Weather permitting, you can eat in the garden behind the tavern.

Really not that good

Peanut soup was atrocious. Chicken was tough. Only the wine steward, a postal worker at the college by day, was up to any acceptable standard. Will not return. A rip-off tourist place.
