38 Best Bars in Virginia Beach

“Great tapas. Great service. Friendly staff.“

“The food was outstanding. I've never had such a flavorful, well seasoned, perfectly cooked chicken breast. I tried my partner's snapper, and it was also scrumptious. Try the shishito peppers!! We were doted on by the staff (wait staff and manager) and it was greatly appreciated. We had to wait 15 minutes for a table which really isn't bad for a Friday night in a popular spot. Gluten free options too!!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“

“Very good food and it family friendly“

“Wife and I felt like seafood but wanted to kick back at home and get take out. We have eaten at Blue before and really enjoyed the experience, so we ordered curbside pick up and was given an estimate of 30 minutes. I arrived early and was met curbside immediately by the hostess and we took care of the payment, she said the food would be right out. Shortly after the food was brought out to me within 20-25 minutes of my call in order. Once home we found the meal perfectly packaged and prepared. The crab soup was as great as we remembered in the restaurant as were the other food (blackened Rockfish, Scallops, and Crab Cake combo, and wife had the Seafood Bellehaven combo (shrimp, scallops, and crab cake with a cheese topping). Normally when you do takeout the quality suffers a bit, but not with Blue Seafood. The dishes were delicious and filling. Highly recommend.“

“Came in last night for a 50th Birthday celebration & had an amazing experience. Adiel gave us exceptional service! Most of their menu is house made & AMAZING! The crab dip 10/10 The scallops, absolutely yes!! She was very knowledgeable on all things Waterman’s & we ordered all she suggested. We will definitely be returning.“

“Absolutely excellent food! Wonderful wait staff. Atmosphere is great and great tunes!“

“Mermaids in Virginia Beach is a lot of fun!! Went in there the other night with some friends and the girls were so friendly, they made us feel right at home. They were amazing to watch! I was told they are getting ready for the Pole and Floor show competition on Saturday, May 18th. I think that's worth going to just from what I saw. The specials were fantastic and the menu was great for either a late night snack or a quick lunch. The music was good, kept everyone upbeat and the security was visible, but not over imposing, and that made everyone comfortable. Can't wait to go back and drag a few more friends out! Of course I would feel comfortable walking in there alone for a drink and a snack :)“

“Small, but vibrant atmosphere. Not stingy with the alcohol. Margaritas were great. Food was perfect. And the best part, is the prices. Cheapest meal all week at the beach. Prices are no more than any other authentic Mexican restaurant.“

“Chantel was my bartender and she has been my best bartender yet!!! I’ve travelled all over and she knew what I wanted without saying anything. She is an asset to your company and you don’t even know it. She made my experience 10/10 thank you Chantel!!“

“The whole experience was top notch. The bartenders and waitstaff were all very knowledgeable, upbeat and attentive to our groups needs. The amazingly tasty gourmet courses were served perfectly.. We will definitely be back.“

“The food is always beyond excellent and the staff are without a doubt the best...and they make the best dirty martinis!!!!“

“While travelings from Texas for family business, I was able to take some time and visit this brewer. This was the fourth brewery I visited. I have been brewing for over ten years and when I travel, I do my best to stop into the local breweries. One the name caught my attention. My family is in law enforcement and I am a paramedic. It was nice and I was felt welcomed. The beer was great and staff friendly. Set up had it's own uniqueness. It is nice to see a brewery dedicated to those who serve and served. This has been the best brewery that I visited. This will definitely be on list to visit again the next time I am in the Virginia Beach area. Cheers, Mike Hutto, Tx“

“Beachy Beautiful inside. I absolutely love the colorful umbrellas over the tables. Makes it feel like summertime. Even during the winter it has that summer vibe. It's wonderful. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Easy to sign up and on a busy Saturday we only waited 10 minutes before getting a court for Shuffleboard. Then if you have never played (like us) they give you a nice lesson and tell you to make a few practice shots. Now lets get to the food. We got sliders, wings, waffle fries, and a hummus tray. All of it came out fast and wonderful. The sliders were perfect in every way and the perfect size. Wings had alot of flavor, they are finger licking good. Ok, you know I got a cocktail. Bahama Mama was excellent and a really good size, I highly recommend all the food and definitely order a drink. YUMMMM. Everything was wonderful. Happy staff, great location, tasty food and wonderful drinks. I can't wait to go back. I was the big winner By The Way. This is a must if your in the Virginia Beach area. Or make a special trip because it is worth it. It is such a GREAT time.“

“Crocs is our #1 favorite dinner destination! John, the owner, is the epitome of hospitality - always so friendly and accommodating! Special shoutouts to Sarah and Tyler also who are always welcoming, kind, and attentive. We, along with our fur baby, make it a tradition to go there most Saturdays for their half-off bottle of wine night. The ambience is wonderful; we especially love their outdoor patio for the warm weather days, with the option of moving into their screened in area with our dog when it’s cold out. Their food and atmosphere are unparalleled in Virginia Beach! Their burgers are top notch, cooked to perfection! We HIGHLY recommend Crocs!!!!“

“Absolutely 1000% hands down the best tacos ?, service & beer I've ever had in VA beach! The owner is a phenomenal chef ! Amazing. His sauces for his tacos & pokes....outstanding! So much care is put into his dishes. Darrel? Our barkeep, a great, great guy! On point with his suggestions, cleanliness & timing. Such a good person. Can't wait to go back again! I'll be traveling states away just to eat, drink & hangout there!“

“My boyfriend and I visited for dinner last night and absolutely loved the surf & turf tacos! The service was excellent as well - the staff were friendly and the food was brought quickly. Portions were big, so we each brought a taco home. He also enjoyed his perfect patrone margarita - I got a different one I didn’t care for as much, but they had a generous amount of alcohol. Next time I’ll try a frozen beverage, as they looked delicious.“

“Came here for dinner on a Sunday night. They have valet parking which is nice because it's not always easy to find parking at the oceanfront. We were there right when they opened at 5 pm and sat right away. They do have a bar area and a HH which is pretty good but tonight was about eating a meal. They did bring bread to the table which was very good. I ordered the Penne alla vodka, someone else got the Fettuccine Alfredo and the others got eggplant parmesan. Everyone enjoyed the meal. I saw some pizza coming out for another table and it looked delicious. We also got a cheesecake and tiramisu for dessert. The tiramisu was made with kahlua and not served in the traditional style but it was delicious!!! Our waiter took wonderful care of us - his name was Jessy. Nice, attentive, knowledgeable and funny! I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and atmosphere and would definitely recommend and go back again.“

“12/6/23Still a banger bar. Yes they smoke.Who caresHave some funComeHaveFunSpent many nights in this joint. If you don't mind the smoke it's a great bar. The food is killer and the people are a blast. Lots of blurry memories here. If you love pool this is your place. A must place to see if you are in the neighborhood.“

“Incredible beer and bourbon selection. They make a killer scotch egg. The rest of their menu is filled with wonderful dishes which include locally sourced ingredients and house made options that are phenomenal! Shooter ready…. Full send if you’re thinking about tryin this place out!“

“The drinks are strong and the food is amazing“

“Ken was a wonderful server-fast, friendly and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to have him as our waiter twice, as we went back to the establishment for lunch the next day and were thrilled when we were seated at his table because we knew he would make our dining experience a stress-free enjoyable one, and he did!“

“Great last of its kind dive bar where Charlie Sheen once pretended to be shit faced as opposed to now where he intends to never again be anything but faced. Word to the wise; don't bullshit or embellish your military service in this place or anywhere in the seven cities unless you're looking to be put on blast. Absolutely, the worst area in perhaps the entire United States to do that crap, but a constant issue. Also for the love of god no more " Thank you for your service" actually, don't even bring the military up. The food is excellent and I swear the club & French dip protect against hangovers. If pool is your thing, you can almost always count on a few good sticks being in there; APA rules seem to be preferred. You're gonna leave this place smelling like a bar complete with cigarettes stink, but it won't kill you Given the severe lack of shared human experiences, we now have on planet Earth come with a friend and bitch about your olfactory experience together! Every town has a brewery, every town has a cookie cutter hipster bar, every town has an overpriced, upscale nightclub, but only this town has Fran's Ready Room; a dive worth the drive.“

“You must come to Casey’s pub and meet their incredible team. Racheal is absolutely top shelf!! Dametri runs a great pub! All The servers are fantastic. 5 Stars“
