About

Just a few blocks away from Merchant Park, join us at Williams Ordinary in the evening for our annual Tavern Night. Take a sip of history while learning about this historic tavern in Dumfries. Enjoy a unique experience in this local landmark by listening to colonial music, interacting with reenactors, and playing 18th-century games. Visitors will have the opportunity to taste a historically inspired brew from Water's End paired with a themed menu from Dixie Bones BBQ. This is a free 21+ event; food, drink, and Sip of History mugs will be available to purchase on site. A portion of all proceeds will be donated to the Prince William Historic Preservation Foundation. On site parking is limited; overflow parking available. For more information, visit
