[[HIGHLIGHT]]The DoG Street Pub's Tavern room was beyond perfect for my daughter's wedding reception.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Yes, the Pub does host private dining events!!! We had a small family wedding at the Wren Chapel and guests were able to walk to the Pub. Planning the event with the manager, Ann, was a dream. She was kind, accommodating, and answered all my questions. Eve was also kind and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Guests were greeted by a beautiful charcuterie board and vegetable tray, perfect table decorations, and attentive servers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was A-MAZ-ING. A specialized menu was created for the event. Several of the guests had nut allergies, so the chef altered the menu to exclude nuts. The choices of entrées and desserts were perfect - way more special than your regular "beef, chicken or fish" options. The event was perfect in every way. Highly, highly recommend! read more

Found Dog Street Pub for a quick lunch/snack bite. After attending my nieces graduation we were starving and the party didn't start until 3. Stopped here and ordered food and a cider for me. I shared the Fish & Chips with my mama. The fish was huge and piping hot. It lacked flavor though. So overall, it wasn't terrible but enough to satiate us. The cider was yummy of course! Good service. read more

This place has some of the best food I've ever had. The fish and chips was THE BEST fish I've had in my life! And my mom had a burger with an actually good gluten free bun. I got an amazing root beer handmade by a local brewery, and oh my lord, that was good. Dad got a pretty good cold beer, and we all did cheers together With my family, and our allergies, it can be hard to eat out sometimes, but this place was SUPER accomodating. Carter, our server, was amazing. He remembered everything, was very sociable, had a really fun sense of humor. Very nice and funny dude. Definitely deserves his promotion [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside, and just the happenings of the lovely corner was super relaxing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dog friendly, so a bunch of cute puppies were around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]And their chairs look kinda like roots, so that was cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All in all, 10/10. read more

Best calamari i have ever had. HANDS DOWN! Best bangers and mash, the onion gravy was so well cooked it was delicious. Probably one of the best tiki marsala i've had. The corned beef brisket sandwich was phenomenal as well, paired well with the sweet pub sauce . Have to say.. this is one of the best and affordable places i have eaten at !!! read more

We got a table right away. It was downstairs, and Sean was our wait staff. He brought a bottle of water while we perused the menus. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was as cozy downstairs as upstairs, with wooden tables and chairs and flat screen TVs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Husband ordered the wedge salad and I had the chicken salad wrap with chips. Both of us thought the food was very good, as was the service! read more

Rating this place a 4.5 stars! The food was great! Staff was so nice and knowledgeable for us first timers! There are lots of options that sound great here and we had a hard time deciding what to order! Which is a good problem to have! We got the chili to start and it was great. The crackers are super good with it. We also got the pork shank and mashed potatoes, which was fantastic! We do wish the drinks had free refills, that's the only downside. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A great spot in a great location! Nice and cozy inside too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend! read more

Was this the best meal ever? No, but the location can't be beat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We also came here on a cool fall day and loved our seats outside on the plaza where we could watch all the people walk by and listen to the street performers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My partner ordered a hot cocktail to help warm himself up and I had a negroni. Not gonna lie, it wasn't the best cocktail ever. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But the relaxing atmosphere made up for the bad cocktail.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For dinner, our kids ordered cheeseburgers and fries while my partner got the Chicken Tikka Marsala. The fries were great! And my kids devoured them. My partner's dish was just okay. I definitely wouldn't order it again. I went with the vegan burger with vegan cheese. It was again, just okay. But the location is what ups my stars here. I'm feeling generous, what can I say! It was a fun day out in Williamsburg. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nicely decorated and comfortable inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bartender was great - really friendly and made a good cocktail. Food was hit or miss on a limited sample size/one time experience. Reuben croquettes were awesome - highly recommend. But the chilli was totally flavorless - literally tasted unseasoned and super bland. I'd give the place another try if I was back in the area. read more

Great location in the historic Williamsburg area! This was my first time visiting and I ordered the warm honey ham and cheddar sandwich w/ fries. The sandwich was huge and could definitely been split into 2 meals. Regardless, it was delicious and very filling. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was pretty full for a Monday at 2pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would recommend if you find yourself in the area and looking for a hearty lunch. read more

I was surprised by this establishment. It was a nice evening so we got a table outside, which was very nice. They did put pork in a lot of their items, which made it a little bit difficult to decide since neither of us eat pork. My sister really liked her chili, which honestly could be a meal on its own. I tried the cheese dip with naan and it was very good. I was very disappointed in my corned beef brisket sandwich. I saw photos on here where it had tons of meat and looked great, but this sandwich barely had any meat at all. I actually took out all the toppings from one half and put it on the other, eating it as a half sandwich - and it wasn't very full still. My sister got the chicken Caesar wrap, which she said was pretty good. For a drink I got the Pimm's cup, which I felt was one of the best I've had. I even went to a Pimm's bar and this one I liked more. Would I go back? Yes! I would just not recommend the sandwich I got. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Ordered the beer cheese for an appetizer, which was good, but $2 for extra pretzels. We all ordered sandwiches but were mediocre (especially considering the option of the Cheese Shop is 15ft away). They also came with a side of chips, which just presented sad. No pickles. And the prices are high, would classify as a tourist trap. Maybe better off with a burger here. There was one vegetarian option - impossible burger but they also could do a grilled cheese (charge you the same price though as if you got ham on it). Ambiance is pub-like leaning into some of the CW color tones. There is outdoor seating when the weather is nice out on DoG street. Service was great. The waiter gave a nice history of the building as we sat down. read more

Great beers on tap. Calamari appetizer was great - light, crispy. Shepherd's pie was delicious. Salmon patty salad was disappointing - salmon was very dry, overcooked. Our server Chelsea was very nice and our food came out quickly. read more

We enjoyed a nice meal here on our visit to Colonial Williamsburg from CA. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Although there was a decent wait to be seated since they were so busy that evening, there were plenty of benches & tables outside to sit, relax & pass the time while admiring the beautiful surroundings[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The waitstaff was friendly & attentive to our needs and the meal portions were generous. Its proximity to William & Mary makes it a convenient choice for those visiting the campus. read more

Excellent food and even better service. The lager was divine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience and seating is great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Wonderful English Pub near the William and Mary campus.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Eclectic take on pub classics. I had the corned beef brisket sandwich with crisps (homemade potato chips) and a lemonade. The sandwich was delicious and came with Pub sauce for dipping. The brisket was warm, juicy and tender. All the flavors melded together and I very much enjoyed my sandwich. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I sat outside, it was beautiful evening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dog and people watching added to the ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I recommend DoG Street Pub if you're in the area. read more

Popular spot, solid food. This place was packed on a weekend, but we were lucky enough to get a seat after a wait. Service was a a bit slow, but that was likely reflective of the dinner time rush on a Saturday night. I decided to try a beer that mimicked the recipes used in colonial times. It was delicious and very fun to try! The fish and chips were tasty. The fish was moist and the fries were fairly standard. For the price, I would have expected a larger portion. The space was a bit cramped and the chairs sometimes made grating metallic noises on the floor. But it had the charm of a downtown pub that more than made up for those shortcomings. Overall, this is a great option for a downtown Colonial Williamsburg meal! read more

Service was an issue. After asking if onions could be removed from one item the server was not sure. I then said okay I will change to another option. Onions not listed on that dish. Lo and behold my meal came out full of onions in the gravy. Regardless even if it had not had onions the food was mediocre at best. If you work in a restaurant you need to know your menus and what is in each dish. No offer to refill tea as well. read more

First stop in, in ages, and just like I remember. For me this was always one of the og spots for craft beer in Williamsburg. They have a respectable amount of taps (16) with local variety and also stock a pretty broad array of cans and bottles. This particular trip I had a 2017 Goose Island Bourbon County Stout. Also tried a couple sours and wheat beers in a flight a friend grabbed. Not a beer fan? They have a full bar and wine. Overall, feels like an upscale version of a traditional pub you'd see in a movie. Fits Williamsburg's vibe very well. Food wise, again pub style. Burgers and sandwiches, salads, and pub favorites - fish and chips, shepherds pie, bangers and mash. I went with the Stout Chili which was surprisingly large for a starter but packed with flavor. They also have a limited but cute patio space and last but not least, staff is always super attentive and upbeat. Definitely recommend. read more

Great spot to grab a bite to eat after walking around CW. Staff was slammed - but they were kind and working hard!

Stop in for a drink and stayed for dinner. There is more than the food we remember about our visit here. It was late afternoon and early evening and another time when the original intent gave way to a better and more enjoyable afternoon. We had been doing a bit of touisting during the day and went looking for an afternoon 'sit down' and then find dinner. The AMBIENCE sold us. We sat at an outer window and watched the people go by, locals and many times obviously not-local. At one point there was an organized run, not a competition but organised in a casual manner. Numerous people were out walking their dogs, who being a dog person I always notice. I was able to locate another beer to my taste and my wife a cocktail. Dinner was Shepard's Pie for both of us, a favorite when we find it and I will make it at home also. The dinner tasted very good! An observation we both made was an abundance of mashed potato. There was potato on the bottom of the plate, the meat seasoned and tasting really good, and then another greater amount of potato on the top. For us this is a frequent, not complaint, but observation and certainly not in what I believe is the traditional way to is cooked. We simply dug the meat off the top of the bottom layer and ate our meal. It didn't interfere in the enjoyment of our dinner nor the flavor. We simply don't like that amount of mashed potato in ratio to the meat. Would we return if given the chance? Certainly and asking for a window or outside table. We might try one of the other Irish oriented items.....Bangers and Mash? maybe? read more

The concierge at my resort told me about this wonderful place before I even left home! The food, drinks, and service can't be beat! Just remember that it is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I had the fried calamari appetizer and a salmon burger with plenty left over to enjoy later! read more

DoG Street Pub is a bank-turned-restaurant located in the heart of Merchant's Square. It has such a charming atmosphere with a rich history! We stopped by for a quick lunch during our day trip to Colonial Williamsburg, and it was a delicious break from the mid-day heat! The menu offers mainly British cuisine like Shepard's pie and fish and chips, but I took the American route and ordered the chicken wings. I loved the crispiness of the chicken skin and the buffalo dipping sauce. My sister loved her Cesar chicken wrap, with her favorite part being the sun dried tomato/basil tortilla. My mom tried the Rail Sandwich, which is one of the most popular dishes at the DoG. She especially enjoyed the sourdough bread and the unique toppings on the sandwich! DoG is equipped with a full bar, and it also serves flavored teas/lemonades, San Pellegrino, and Coke products. What really made DoG a 5-star experience was the service from our waiter, Yusuf. He was really one of the most polite and enthusiastic people I've ever met! He told us the history of the restaurant, gave us an overview of the best items on the menu, and showed his commitment to allergy-friendliness when someone in the party next to us said she had an onion allergy. Yusuf was amazing, and I would honestly come back to DoG just to see him again! read more

Delicious food with great service! Have been here several times and the food is spot on every time. They have some of the best appetizers, just delicious. The Ruben croquettes are to die for, unique and just delicious. And please try the stout chili, chicken tiki masala dip and beer cheese. Sandwiches we tried, truly enjoyed, and recommend: corned beef brisket, amazing; fried eggplant, unique and very flavorful; honey ham and cheddar, simple but so good, the bread is key; dog street and lamb burgers, the tzatziki sauce on it was so good. Very cozy atmosphere as well, definitely feels like an authentic pub. read more

Located conveniently just outside of the main drag of colonial Williamsburg, this cute little restaurant is serving up "British food with an American twist." And I would say they're doing exactly that! The cocktails here are absolutely absolutely wonderful, and the food is like nothing I've ever had before. The fusion of American cuisine with traditional British fair is really interesting and something I didn't know I needed. They have a really lovely outdoor patio to enjoy the nice Virginia evenings, and the wait staff is excellent. If you were looking for some thing on the more inexpensive side of dining in Williamsburg, I definitely recommend checking out dog! read more

On vacation and decided to grab a small bite to eat here. Was seated immediately in the back. Our server was with us in good time with water and gave us more time to look over menu. My wife ordered a bowl of split peas with shaved corned beef on top which she enjoyed. I ordered the chili dog with onion and cheese. This dog is a grilled foot long on a 8" hoagie roll. Ve filling and good. The food was good and we were checked on several time during our meal. read more

I stopped in here today while on a weekend trip to Williamsburg and was pleasantly surprised. We dined in the early afternoon between 430 and 5 and were seated promptly. Our server was friendly and it had a laid back feel to the place. There seemed to be a mix of locals and tourists inside. The fish and chips were delicious. I've never seen pieces of cod that large. The batter had a nice flavor and was perfectly crispy. I wasn't a fan of the tartar sauce as it was a bit tart but other than that the food and service was fantastic. I also ordered a beer from a brewery out of Virginia Beach and it was very crisp and refreshing. I would definitely return. read more

Holy cow. If you like lamb, you will go bonkers for their lamb burger with homemade tzatziki sauce. I paired this with a Legends brown ale and was in gastromic heaven. Fast service and knowledgeable staff make this 5-star judgement easy. read more

Stopped here for lunch while in Williamsburg. Such a cool, old building with large ceilings. They have lots of seating, a cool bar and lots of outdoor seating. The bar tender was nice and quick. They have some different local beers on tap! Limited menu but I got a ham and cheese panini thing and it was very good. My boyfriend got the chicken wrap and it was decent but seemed like premade chicken. Nice place to stop while at the shops and exploring. read more

We tried this out of convenience while we're walking around Williamsburg. I love the old building, neat ambiance. When we walked in though we were immediately hit with a fouls odor almost like cleaner and dirty wash water, so that was a little off putting. We were seated quickly, and seating was comfortably on par with the style of establishment. Service was quick and friendly, server was attentive and eager to help with suggestions. Beer menu was smallish, but good local selections which I love. Food was ... meh. Not bad, just not great. The wife had a wrap that was pretty dry, needed more dressing. I had fish and chips. The fries were great, the fish could have been a little more crisp, but was still pretty good. None of that fish oil flavor you get sometimes. Don't know that I'd have to go back, but if you are there and hungry ,give them a try. read more

DoG Street Pub - Menu - British Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Over the last five of six years this place has become one of my new go to spots for a quick bite in walking distance of all I hold dear in colonial Williamsburg. Walking into this restaurant is walking into a wide open space with a clear colonial Vibe to it. Always ask about the food specials as that may be our go to option and today I did. The he amazingly tasty corn chowder with chicken was yumminess personified. It was truly remarkable. I chased it with water to enjoy the soup itself. The wait staff is always on the move and checking in. Cant say enough about the hospitality and the food. And you can never go wrong stopping in and taking a break from the William and Mary college or the he walking of colonial Williamsburg. I will defiantly be back as inhave i. The past. And they have an amazing selection of local craft beers too. read more

Just a quick visit, they were incredibly busy, but despite being so, the service was great. There was a special event in town today (Lafayette 200 yr anniversary of his 1824 visit), so the town is slammed. I was attended to promptly, and seated, and waited on quickly. I had one of their IPAs, which was a special version brewed in honor of Homecoming for William and Mary, and I had the beer cheese appetizer. Both were great! Prices were reasonable. Restaurant was noisy, which is to be expected of a pub. Outdoor seating available. I would definitely return. read more

Easily a 4 star establishment. . . Sean waited on us and did a fine job. We tried several menu items including the pork shank and shepherds pie. . .

Not sure why so many mediocre reviews, unless you went into the meal with erroneous expectations. By which I mean, this is an excellent example of a British pub, but is not meant to be a fine dining establishment like its sister restaurant the Blue Talon. We were a party of nine on a Saturday night, and received excellent service and even better food. All the British pub favorites, followed by some of the best desserts I've had in a while. Outside is great if the weather is good, and downstairs great for larger parties. We will absolutely come back. read more

I had good service here - let's start with that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The room with all the big windows - wonderful - but I was seated in the back room which was darker and if I'm being honest, had a weird smell.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the pea soup, but found it had wine in it that I didn't think added any value to the taste of the soup. I also tried the grilled chili (beef) hotdog which was very good. The chili lacked any real heat, but I enjoyed it anyway. I look forward to returning to try more entrees. I was seated promptly and the entire staff was professional and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On a cooler day, the patio will be nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more
