  • Root Beer & Gingerbread At The Raleigh Tavern Bake Shop - COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG During Christmas
    Experience the charm of Colonial Williamsburg during Christmas time in our latest Quest Capsule story where we reveal a series of past holiday seasons spent in the city. All of which sets the stage for a fun winter-time exploration that we set out on in our quest to fulfill a midday craving for something sweet.
    Follow our journey through the city’s historic streets, highlighting one of our visits from last season to the Raleigh Tavern Bake Shop for a taste of Christmas nostalgia. From the brick pathway which leads to the rustic charm of the town’s semi-hidden bake shop, viewers will immerse themselves in the ambiance of this timeless destination in Colonial Williamsburg.
    Watch as we keep our tradition of partaking in one of our favorite bark beer beverages while sampling a round, colonial-style gingerbread man for the first time here.
    The story captures the essence of the spirit of Christmas in Colonial Williamsburg, offering insights into the quaint beauty of the area, its grand holiday traditions, and the delectable treats awaiting sweet-toothed visitors.
    Our stop into The Raleigh Tavern Bake Shop emerges as the central focus of the feature, “Root Beer & Gingerbread At The Raleigh Tavern Bake Shop”, and showcases some of the bakery’s delectable offerings, its age-old recipes, its old-fashioned kitchen area, and of course, our endeavor to unveil the magic of Colonial Williamsburg during the holidays while indulging in one of its confectionary delights.

    I miss Williamsburg so much. Was there one day during a heavy snow storm by myself - no tourists - just a lone carriage coming down the street, the ghosts, and myself. And the silence and stunning beauty. Pure magic. So blessed to have experienced it ! Thanks for your videos !

      Am fortunate to live in Williamsburg, VA. Drive through or walk through the historic area all the time. It is divine in so many ways. It helps that William & Mary is right across the street and a beautiful campus.

    My parents honeymooned at CW in the early 50s! Would go here growing up on vacation in the 70s ! Took my wife back in the early days of marriage in the 2000s ! Love the architecture, history and of course , the gardens !

    I was lucky to grow up near Williamsburg and we visited several times a year. No matter how many times l went it was always a treat just to walk around and browse all the shops. It also sparked my love of American history. I still live near Williamsburg and still enjoy going there.

    When I was younger, they baked Ginger Bread Cookies in the Raleigh Tavern Bakery. The smell was wonderful. The other treasured memory I have is the Yule Log Ceremony at the College of William and Mary. Held in the Sir Christopher Wren Building at the end of the semester before the holidays, it was a great way to see classmates before leaving for the holidays.

    Thank you for this beautiful picture of my city. I will have a new appreciation of the Raleigh Tavern. I have dismissed it because I remember the days of the 1970s when it wasn't so commercialized. Its nice to see it through the eyes of a guest but I long for the old days. 😢 P. S. Your voice and video reminds me of a channel I follow called Trout and Coffee. Trust me, it's a compliment. 😊 You gained a new subscriber. 😉

    Here in SC...Love, love love all of your videos! Gingerbread was not popular where I live as I was growing up. I had never had it until my family went camping during Christmas 1970. Daddy took us down a little out of the way street, as I remember. We smelled the bakery before we saw it. Daddy bought the 4 of us kids our first ginger cake. We saw them being pulled from the wood fired oven. There is no way to describe that experience, but you and Sarah know what I'm talking about! Thank you for taking me back to my early teen memories.
    I went for the third time in 2013, dressed in period clothes. I felt like I stepped back in time. I wouldn't trade my 3 trips to Williamsburg for anything. I AM going back...some day!

    Another top-quality video from this channel. I live in Virginia, and have been to Williamsburg, but never at Christmas. We need to make it a priority to go during Christmas. It's just so beautiful. Also, will go to that amazing bakery! YUM! I didn't know it was there...but I do now. Definitely a stop to make! Thank you for another awesome video! Always excellent! Hope you and Sarah have a wonderful Thanksgiving! God bless!

    Wonderful narrative and very well put together video that goes beyond the obvious. It dives into more of the intimate aspects of the city, thereby sharing with your listeners more historical information and inspiration for their next visit to Williamsburg.
    I find it very interesting and hope you will keep doing this and become very successful in your endeavor. There's nothing I love more than history, especially US History.

    Thanks so much again for this new video. I am following you on Facebook right now so that I do not miss a new video even though I have notifications on! You should really consider doing a video about Mount Vernon and Monticello, as well as Woodlawn Plantation, if that is not to far away for you! These were also my haunts when I visited Virginia. Your editing andystorytelling ist just great. Always makes me smile and feel like I am there! ❤
