Fodor's Expert Review Liberty Tree Tavern
Now serving beer and wine, this formerly "dry" tavern holds a prime spot on the parade route, so you can catch a good meal while you wait. Each of the six dining rooms commemorates a historical U.S. figure, like Betsy Ross or Benjamin Franklin. Order Colonial-period comfort food for lunch like hearty pot roast cooked with a Cabernet wine–and-mushroom sauce, or turkey and dressing with mashed potatoes. Dinner is the family-style Patriot's Platter, with turkey, pot roast, sliced pork, and sides. The restaurant is decorated in lovely Williamsburg colors with Early American–style antiques and lots of brightly polished brass. Wait times may be long, but don't let the always-crowded lobby put you off—the food is surprisingly good.
