It is said George Washington ate here but that's a bit of a fudge (he ate in the original Christiana Campbell's Tavern). No matter, had he done so he would have raved about Mrs. Campbell's sweet-potato muffins. For these, the reconstructed inn deserves the accolades. As for the rest of the menu at this large tavern, tucked behind the Capitol (and unlike the other taverns, not on Duke of Gloucester Street) it features Tidewater seafood and is usually quite tasty. Start as the colonials did with a rum punch or whiskey cup while you relax in the simple whitewashed and dark-wood-paneled dining rooms. And be sure to have the sherried seafood stew before tucking into a fricassy of shrimp, scallops, and lobster or perhaps grilled tenderloin, chicken dinner, or crab cakes, all served on blue-and-white dishes. Did I mention that the staff's in colonial dress and musicians wander through? (Did I have to mention that?) There's a children's menu, too. Reservations are required.
