Your unforgettable culinary experience awaits at our European-inspired, full-service dining establishment that offers a true farm-to-table experience. Pull up a chair to celebrate the flavors that define Coastal Virginia while simultaneously showcasing the world-class bounty found throughout the Commonwealth.
The Tavern is named for Gabriel Archer, one of Jamestown’s most significant early leaders who co-captained the Godspeed, the lead ship among the three vessels that brought the men who founded the first permanent new settlement in the English New World. Archer envisioned the settlement at the mouth of the creek that was to be named “Archer’s Hope”. While Capt. John Smith overruled the idea by placing the settlement on Jamestown Island, the winery honors Archer’s request as Archer’s Hope is essentially the Wessex Hundred farm.
Featuring a 2-level deck overlooking the Albariño and the Petit Verdot vineyards PLUS an outdoor terrace with fire pit tables. Enjoy a glass of wine or food from the Gabriel Archer Tavern, experience live and local music acts, or join us in the Fall for Wine & Brine Fridays!
*The Pavilion may close due to extreme heat or inclement weather.
