THE GABRIEL ARCHER TAVERN
Join us every Saturday and Sunday at the Gabriel Archer Tavern’s outside Wine & Brine Lounge to taste some of the Chesapeake Bay’s finest oysters along with other fresh seafood.
Every Saturday from 12 PM to 3 PM a Virginia oysterwoman and/or oysterman will be on-site serving their delicious oysters. Hear from the hardworking women and men who farm their world-class bivalves while you enjoy a glass of Virginia wine overlooking the vineyards at The Williamsburg Winery.

Virginia is for Oyster Lovers!
Known as the oyster capital of the East Coast – with eight distinct oyster regions – the Commonwealth is the largest producer of fresh, farm-raised oysters in the country.*
In late 2015, the visitor-directed experiential “journey of discovery” program, the Virginia Oyster Trail, was launched in order to provide a culinary map of Virginia’s eight oyster regions and describe the rich history and culture of Virginia’s watermen.
