Yorktown Pub

Cozy and comfortable, Yorktown Pub has a lot to offer visitors as well as its loyal, regular patrons. The food is plentiful, reasonably priced and fresh - especially the seafood specials. There are lovely views of the river, making it a delightful place to get down with the locals, knock back a beer or three and enjoy the pretty Williamsburg scenery. Smoking is permitted at the adjoining bar,...

My wife, granddaughter (age 2), and I paid a visit to the Yorktown Pub recently for dinner. My wife and I ordered the Fried Shrimp dinner and we ordered the chicken sandwich for our grandbaby. We ended up sharing our dinners with her instead. We were very disappointed with the chicken sandwich (same as McDonalds, but triple the cost). The cole slaw was lacking something. The fried shrimp was very good and perfectly cooked. However, the cost of the meals (15.95 for each Shrimp platter, 6.95 for the chicken sandwich) was high. Must've been because of the view, which was nice, in the daytme. After sunset, it was "ho-hum." I don't think we'll be going back anytime soon. BTW, they do accept credit cards (MC/Visa).

The view is great, but the atmosphere and food leave room for improvement. The sandwhich I ordered was dripping with mayo and soggy. The room was too smoky and stuffy. I think there are better choices in the area.

Casual, Cheap, Great food (the "fish sandwich" is AWESOME), Great service, Great atmosphere, Great view - 5 stars from a local!
