This is a fun pizza place, the pizza is here are really tasty. Very feeling, however beware of the large. Get a sauce, though for the crust very yummy. We had the hot pepper, which was delicious, and the house special, which was also very good but a little bit of a overload of toppings. Only edible with fork and knife. Still delicious. read more

Love this place! Amazing menu options, some of the best pizza I've had! I enjoy the ambiance inside of the restaurant, service is always fast and friendly. A gem of Williamsburg for sure read more

I've enjoyed the Mellow Mushroom in other locations and was happy to find one in Williamsburg, however... I tried ordering through the website, no luck, referred to Grub hub but couldn't complete the order, tried calling 3 times and nobody answered the phone. So, I wasn't able to order and can't rate this location. I hope you have better luck than I did. Very disappointed. I should've given 1 star but I know the franchise is good. read more

We have been to this location several times in the past few years. Tonight, my husband's pizza was brought out but I was told "Sorry, the pizza oven ate yours. We have to remake it." My husband waited awhile and at my urging began to finally eat. He ate 2 slices of his pizza before mine came out. You would have thought they would have made sure to cut mine all the way through after the mishap, but I had to tear the pizza apart to separate the pieces. I was a little irritated that we only got an apology. If I was the manager, I would have made sure to bring out a few pretzel bites or something (not a full app) for free while waiting for the 2nd pizza to be remade. Then, after we were done, we had to wait quite a while to let our server know to bring the check. Luckily, they comped our drinks (iced teas) but we were never told this. It will be a long while before we go back. It was a pretty disappointing evening. read more

went with a group and had a great time. I recommend the pesto Margherita pizza (not pictured) but the one I ordered (pineapple bacon ham) was also good. Missing a star because it could use more sauce and the crust would be better with more garlic or some Parmesan. read more

Holy moly was I glad my husband asked us to have lunch here , he was so right this place was amazing . The ambiance alone was fun and inviting and funky , they had like a half car , they had a mini construction site it was definitely fun. Now let's get to the food. We got the mighty meat pie no ground beef and unfortunately they made a mistake and added the ground beef so what they did was shocking they not only discounted our check they also brought us a new pie . The accommodation towards there customers has earned them a customer for life . My little son had the kids pretzels which arrived with 2 large pretzel sticks and dipping sauce . Everything and everyone at this location was perfect . We would 100% go back !!! Oh and the best part to feed a family of 4 with drinks was under $50 so it's definitely worth going ! read more

Mellow Mushroom Williamsburg - Mighty Meaty GF - Bars Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

be warned it is expensive, and there will probably be a wait, (the last time when we were leaving on a Saturday night, around 6:45/7, the wait was up to 1.5 hours) but I love this place. I love that you can get pesto as a pizza base, and I get a small thin crust, half pesto based with whatever toppings I'm in the mood for and the other half the rim one and they put nice big chunks of pineapple on it. I would recommend not getting any oil topping on the pizzas because it gets very oily. I would also recommend getting the white pizza. The small pizza is like $17 but it acts as two meals, and you definitely can split it among two people. The interior is also super cute and colorful, and they have outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. read more

Pretzel bites were fantastic. Pizza was just okay. Crust was flat, not the thick airy dough I'm used to from Mellow Mushroom. Asked for the pizza to be crispy, server stated ok but wasn't denoted on the check that way. Parking can be problematic as this location is in downtown Williamsburg. Although there is a public parking lot next to the restaurant, it was completely full when we arrived. Fortunately someone left while we were looking for a spot or we would have been in for a walk. read more

Ok, sooooo.... this place was awesome. The wait would have been long, but they offered us a seat at the bar. They allowed my six year old there.... SCORE. We didn't have much time to eat so this was great. Not to mention the incredible bartender. We had a great conversation about everything and nothing all at once. The owner's whole vision on the place, college possibilities for my high school aged son, jalapeños... you name it, it was a show about nothing, but highly entertaining. The place is a decent sized place and located right smack dab in colonial Williamsburg (the reason we were there). But the highlight? THE DOUGH on the pizza. Not only were those suckers HUGE pizzas for the price, but that dough was so east coast delicious that I wish I had time to order another one to take back. I do believe there is also a location in Virginia Beach (where we were staying) but there were too many other things to do besides go to the same chain twice. I wish there was one here in CA. Maybe there is, but I have a feeling the dough might not taste the same since our water is so different than the east coast. Anyway, super chill spot, yummy and all around great choice for us. Thanks *oh and check in gets you a pretzel something which are also so good!* read more

This is always going to be one of my must-visits when I come to Williamsburg. I have loved this joint ever since I was a kid, and am always pleased. That said, I haven't been to the actual restaurant in many, many years. We were NOT disappointed. We came around 4:15 pm, and the wait to be seated inside was 45 minutes - so we sat outside, which had no wait. (Keep in mind, we came on the 4th of July.) The outside area is really lovely, with plenty of fans whirling that kept us cool. Moving on to drinks and food, I had two of the lavender groove lemonades, spiked, per the recommendation of our lovely waitress. We split a lil' Greek salad, pretzel bites with the spicy beer cheese, and then two small half & half pies - one with buffalo chicken and funky Q, and then one with half the Marley and half Holy Shitaake. The only pizza that was new to me was the Marley - a jerk chicken pizza. It was incredible. The rest of them are ones I had before- but I was introducing my partner to the deliciousness that is Mellow Mushroom, hence all the half & halfs. In my opinion, the Holy Shitaake reigns supreme but the Marley was a close second. I would skip the pretzel bites next time as they filled us up a bit before the pizzas, leaving us less room for pizza. We had plenty of leftovers. Service was great - our waitress was attentive and just really lovely, despite how busy it was. I appreciated her recommendations and everything went great. The wait times may seem intimidating, but I promise it's worth it. read more

Waited a long time for my steak and cheese sub, the bread was burnt and too hard to bite, the steak was terrible and overcooked . We never go back to this place read more

The service was okay-ish. She did not bring all our food out at once, and I had a long wait on my food. I was served last and had to wait an extra 5-10 minutes for my food. It was super good though, and worth the wait. read more

They don't have an option for no stars so I guess one will have to do. The manager Brittany Kirby ignored my emails and calls for two weeks while I tried to set up a dinner and when I finally tracked her down she was rude and dismissive on the phone. So that's 30+ people who won't be returning to their restaurant, and more if I have my way. Crappy service for sub-par food. See ya never, Mellow! read more

We ate outside. The food was great. Our sangria was great. The tables that were dirty around us when we got there stayed that way until right before we left. And the woman cleaning them off dropped her cloth on the ground and then when she came back from dropping off the dirty dishes she picked it up and wiped a table with it. There were lots of bees out there too. We stayed. The food was good and we had fun but... we did question some of the outdoor space hygiene. read more

This place is great! The pepperoni rolls are amazing! The boneless wings are very good. We had a half white pizza half plain thin and crispy. It was very good. The crust is different, I don't know how to explain it but it's a must try! My only complaint was are waiter he was okay just not overly friendly or anything. The decor is super cool! We will be back! read more

Had a great pizza with friends. The place is amazing in Old Town Williamsburg. Come early, parking lot by the restaurant is usually full. Use adjacent public lots. read more

Visitors to the area were had little knowledge about restaurants that were open on Monday nights. FYI there are few. Kinda fell into the Mellow Mushroom based on its location. Sat at the bar because table wait was 1hr+. Surprised to meet the bartender (Nurgal) and what a great first impression of this establishment. She made us feel welcome and was very fun to interact with along with the other couples at the bar. We will be back! read more

Visited Mellow Mushroom while in the area for Thanksgiving, and I'm so glad I did! I'm a big fan of vegetarian pies, and believe that mushrooms should always be on pizza, so the holy shiitake pie immediately caught my attention. The crust was delicious and pillowy, with just a hint of fermented-sour-goodness that keeps you going back for more. The toppings all worked so well together that I definitely ate more than my fill when I grabbed it, and was excited for my leftovers for dinner. As for seating, I found the inside a little crowded and loud so I found some nice seating just outside the mall area - definitely a great spot to enjoy your food and people watch on a warm(er) day! I wish I could find this spot where I live, but I'll definitely have it on my list of places to hit up when I'm in the area! read more

Relaxing and casual atmosphere, pizza is great (thin crust), calzone is huge, bruschetta is delicious and beautifully presented; everything is reasonable priced. I highly recommend: the magic mushroom soup-you can't get it anywhere else. Topped with melted cheese and more mushroom. It's warm and creamy, great for a cold day. If you come on the weekend, prepare for 20-30 minutes wait. But once you are seated, service is fast. Parking can be a bit difficult around this area. read more

So stoked to find a Mellow Mushroom in my home town. My first experience with the chain happened probably close to 5 or 6 years ago now in Cary Town in Richmond Va and they remain my favorite for grabbing a pie. The dough they use is flipping fantastic and the quality of the ingredients and toppings solid. Over the years I've tried several of their pizzas, built my own, as well as had each of their pretzel offerings. Their consistency location to location is spot on. (I've tried them as far south as Florida) My personal go-to's are the Funky Q BBQ Chicken and Mighty Meaty. Again, great ingredients and my personal favorite dough/crust I've had at any pizza place. The staff is always super friendly and the service quick, regardless of ordering ahead or picking up. Each of the locations I've been to tend to have the coolest unique atmospheres too. The Williamsburg location I've hit twice this month while home for an extended period introducing them to family members from out of town. I've done to-go both times and the service has been fantastic. Parking for this particular location can be tricky in Colonial Williamsburg if you're not savvy, but there's multiple lots to choose from. Last nugget - the pricing is extremely fair and a great value for the quality they offer. Wish I'd taken better pics but the family kept driving in before I could get shots of the full pies read more

Fun pizza joint in the historical town of Williamsburg where you are blessed with not only great pizza and fun drinks you can also walk directly adjacent from the Mellow Mushroom into a fun arcade/brewery called, "Precarious Beer Project", where you can play some retro arcade games / pinball machines while you wait. Holy Shiitake Pie - Olive oil and garlic base, shiitake, button and portobello mushrooms, caramelized onions, mozzarella, and Wisconsin aged white cheddar. Finished with a garlic aioli swirl and a spritz of black truffle oil. Garnished with fresh chives and shaved parmesan. The pizza described above is extremely soft and easy to eat. Packed with flavor it surely is not a chore to devour this pizza. The calorie counts on the website I am assuming must be per pizza slice as I highly doubt a medium pizza is 420-460 calories however my girlfriend and I split the pizza and had leftovers for the morning after. Pizza still retained all of its yummly goodness and flavor upon reheating. If you are looking for a simple night out for pizza, arcades, and possibly a drink or two definitely stop into this location. FYI - I do not recommend purchasing the cookies. They were out of Chocolate Chip however the Sugar cookie and Peanut Butter cookie missed the mark, good thing we did not come here for the cookies though! As always people SYOY!!! read more

This place is very crowded, very well located in a busy shopping/eating area of town. I found it convenient food stop when visiting the art museum. It's got a nice cool, hip vibe. The names on the menu are fun. A+ on the team who brainstormed all of those. The menus even have cute little illustrations. We ordered a white pie or a "great white" which had a picture of a shark with a monocle. Also the pizza had ricotta, mozzarella, and provolone. We also ordered a pretzel, which the waiter said would come out at the same time as the pizza which I thought was weird. The menu described it as "Signature Mellow dough twisted into pretzels" and comes with red sauce. I guess I assumed the pretzel would be a pretzel, but it's literally the pizza dough in a pretzel shape. That's why it comes with marinara sauce. They should just sell it as breadsticks or say warning: contains no pretzels. It tasted fine with marinara sauce (did not jive at all with the mustard sauce because it's not a pretzel) . It was also SO salty every piece spent so much time wiping down to get the overwhelming taste of salt off. And I love salt. On pretzels. And even then not entirely coated. The white pizza was great. So cheesy, nice touch of basil, a small even very filling for 2 people. Nice fluffy crust that also makes a good breadstick. If I had just ordered pizza, I would have given this a 5 but still bummed the pretzel wasn't made out of pretzel dough and was salted within an inch of its life. Would get pizza again. read more

The service here was amazing staff were friendly, came to check in a few times, and overall recommend. the food was great but the dough is a little bit sweet because of the sweet and salty combination but overall the pizza was great and the overall ambience was super Awsome and funny. I would highly recommend this place anytime read more

Pizza was good - heavy on the grease but overall flavorful. Pitcher of Bud Light - beer tasted flat. My kid got a kids meal. Apple was brown. Pretzel was hard. Ordered him wings to take home since he was still hungry. He ate one and couldnt eat the rest. They were overcooked and absolutely terrible. One of the wings was smaller than my pinky. Id be completely embarrassed to send these out to paying customers if I was a restaurant. Completely pathetic between the kids meal and the chicken wings. What a waste of money. read more

Don't know if their food was any good because we couldn't get in to try it. No reservations taken and you couldn't get on the wait list until you show up in person. Also, the noise level was off the chart. Doubt if diners would be able to have a normal conversation. Of course maybe we are too old for this restaurant as we are in our mid 30s. read more

Nice pizza place. Has a college vibe but slightly nicer. The waitstaff was really nice. The food (a pizza and a hogue) was tasty. Well made and well seasoned. We're in town on vacation and when we're back we'll definitely return. read more

We have been going here for three years, went last night with three year-old grandson, grandma and grandpa... Brittany was our server and so pleasant and so efficient and really wonderful to our grandson and us throughout the meal. The food was great we highly recommend the meatballs. We are never disappointed and I am Italian American and very fussy... We also had a mushroom sausage pizza which was very good. Plenty of food served at a timely manner. Highly highly recommend. read more

My husband and I both got different pizzas listed under the "local" part of the menu. The pizza was great. We also shared a meatball appetizer, which was just okay...nothing technically wrong with it, but neither of us were impressed. I think it may have been the red sauce...neither of our pizzas had red sauce, but the meatball appetizer did. ‍ The brownie sundae was phenomenal. The service was pretty good. We got seated right away and placed our order shortly after. The pizza came out immediately after the appetizer, we got as far as putting a meatball each on our plates. So that was annoying....I really prefer to eat my food hot, and that's not possible when it all comes at the same time. For the ambiance....it had a very hippie/druggy vibe. Not really my cup of tea, but I'll tolerate silly theme for good food. To sum it up.... We'll be back for pizza and dessert! read more

Had a great lunch today at the mellow mushroom. Our server,Hazar, was exceptionally helpful explaining the menu. The menu was extensive. We settled on the lunch specials. It was a great deal of wonderful food. We had a cheese pizza and a steak and cheese hoagie. Both were very good. read more

Mellow Mushroom is a chain with part of its menu devoted to local dishes. There a lot of creative pizza creations with cool names. Read through the menu and take a chance on something that may be a little outside of your pizza comfort zone. We also had the oven roasted wings. Probably better than deep fried in oil, my boys loved them (in a mild buffalo sauce) and wanted me to order more. There were nice kid's menu options. A little pricey overall, particularly the pizza, so the kid's menu options kept our overall bill reasonable. MM is wildly popular, so be prepared to wait. There's outdoor seating, but I've found that Williamsburg in July is pretty humid; so I'd much rather eat indoors, though they AC is a little on overdrive. The dining area is overpacked and cramped for moving about. read more

We used to have one of these where we are in Florida but Covid did them in. We liked it there so when we saw it in Williamsburg we decided to go here. The check in was easy, they originally told us 1/2 hour wait and we were only about 15 mins. So they were quick. The bartender gave us free drinks non alcoholic of course, while we waited. When we got to our table the waitress was so friendly and knowledgeable. The pizza was awesome, the sandwiches were excellent and the spinach dip was a great start to the meal! The atmosphere was a bit loud but overall nothing you wouldn't expect in a restaurant environment! Awesome job! read more

Whoever invented the smash burger is a genius. 2 pieces of hamburger about the size of a quarter smashed into 2 paper sized patties that you can see through for $13.99 and the smash burger here was about the size of a slider and the side order of tots were burnt and looked like they were made 10 hours ago. The diet soda tasted off and something was not right about it. Spinach and artichoke dip and bread was really not good. It was one blob of cheese in a ball that you had to cut to chew. Anyway, I dont know why this place is packed but my guess is in the near future this all will change as they charge $35 for a large pizza with paper thin crust and not well made and prepared. Will not be back again. The only thing the was positive is our server was nice but definitely overwhelmed. read more
