A historical landmark that dates back to the late 1700's, Rice's Hotel / Hughlett's Tavern is home to the "Heritage Arts Center" Gift Shoppe, which sells all locally-made handcrafts, and the Tavern Café, which offers light luncheon fare made by the volunteers of the Tavern Culinary Guild. Open Thursday - Saturday, 10 am - 2 pm. Four artisan guilds are on-site, including the Blacksmiths in the Forge, the Woodworkers in the "Carriage House", the Quilters in their studio on the first floor of the Tavern, and the Spinners & Weavers in their studio upstairs. Guilds demonstrate and offer classes. On the third Saturday of the month, April - October, the Tavern sponsors the Heathsville Farmers Market with vendors selling Northern Neck produce, meat, breads and baked goods, gourmet peanuts and BBQ sauce, and quality handcrafts. There are new vendors at every market. Hours are 9 am to 1 pm
