50 Best Bars near Henrico

“In town for a soccer tournament this weekend and ended up at Daddio’s tonight. Had an awesome time. Great burgers, great bartenders, and my drink was never empty. We played Singo for a while and then karaoke started and the place really got going once the younger crowd came in. Everyone was singing, laughing, and just having a good time. Really fun vibe all around. If you’re around Henrico and looking for a fun place to hang out, definitely check it out. We’ll be back next time we’re in town.“

“The best local bar anyone could ask for. Great noodle bowls, wings, cold beer and live music.“

“Nicole did a great job accommodating our large group! She was personable, helpful, kept our drinks full and very patient with our crew!“

“Best street tacos! Service was amazing and the food was delicious! Cannot wait to go back!“

“Had the BEST birthday dinner EVER!!! Best food and service since I was in Italy!!! I highly recommend going if you haven’t been! Thank you so much to the staff and owners for making it so special!!!😘“

“Bartenders are and management is doper“

“I went on Sunday, and the restaurant was very clean and tidy. I love the luxurious atmosphere of The Daily. They have a large patio area, with lots of room between tables. The food, appetizers, and drinks were emaculate. My server was very friendly and attentive, but not over bearing. I will definitely visit again. Thank you!“

“My girlfriend and I had drinks here. I ordered the fried tilapia. Will definitely return. Especially for the drinks.“

“My brother and I went here a week ago for brunch and our experience was simply amazing! Our server Javon (spelling may be wrong) was attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food upon arrival was scrumptious! Plated well, very nice portion size and no additional salt or pepper needed! The music was even great! We lingered a bit after we closed our bill vibing to the music. When our family link together in this area, we will be visiting Farm and Oak. I highly recommend this restaurant and ask for Javon (sp)!“

“I will turn 75 years old on Monday, Dec. 21, 2020. All I want for my birthday is some of the delicious pub grub from The Cask Cafe, and a growler or two of selections from the world’s (and Richmond’s) greatest brews. Unfortunately, this will be via touch-free curbside pickup. I’d much rather sit at the bar and chat about the role of diacetyl in English pub bitters, or the varieties of Bohemian or Moravian hops available in commercial Czech lagers...but not this year. The cask is Richmond’s best bar for real beer afficionados, IMHO. DAN MOUER“

“The chicken wings were crispy, the burger was great and the drinks were cold and refreshing. If you like a punk/ rock and roll atmosphere this place is for you. Servers were all cool too! Definitely coming back next time I'm in Richmond!!!“

“Creative and well-crafted cocktails along with top-notch service. Wife and I absolutely loved the One Way or Another, tried one chilled and one warm, both versions great - perfectly balanced with well-considered and cohesive components. House coffee and cranberry liqueurs are incredible, too, a must-visit hidden gem in Richmond!“

“Great food and service. Has a neighborhood bar feel to it.“

“Gay-Fa-Lay Flipper Waffle-fry nachos“

“I really love Harlym Blue’Z. It’s a smaller spot, which gives it a nice intimate and laid-back feel. The staff is friendly, the drinks are good, and the atmosphere is always welcoming. I especially love the music...they play a lot of 90s R&B, which is definitely my kind of vibe. They also keep things fun with karaoke and different activities throughout the week, so it’s not always the same experience every time you go. I’ve been more than once and I always end up having a good time. Definitely a nice little spot to relax, have a drink, listen to good music, and enjoy yourself.“

“Absolutely love this place, recommend 10 out of 10.“

“Went here for an espresso martini, and maybe I had high expectations because it was a vodka bar, but it simply was not good! Tasted like vodka with plain coffee and that’s it. I didn’t even finish it, even though it came in a very small glass. Very disappointed.“

“I got the fish sandwich and it was hot and fresh. However, the lettuce was wilted and I am not a personal fan of shoestring fries because the get cold and limp to quickly. It was strange to find no Samuel Adams beers on tap at a Sanuel Adams establishments.

My server, Tabbi, was friendly and attentive she even took the opportunity to help me before the pushy customer that came in after me.

The music was a bit loud and only ESPN on all screens. I guess that's the usual for an airport bar.“

“The food was absolutely amazing. The customer service was exceptional. The atmosphere was such a delight, very clean, very romantic the pricing that you paid for the amount of food you got was really great. It's so great to have this type of customer service stateside I felt like I was taking a trip just by visiting a restaurant, if you haven't been definitely put it on your bucket list a must experience“

“stopped here tonight with my 4 year old on a long road trip and I can't say thank you enough. Great people, great food, great place! highly recommended if you love GWAR or crispy fries 🍟 👁“

“Best friendly neighborhood bar in town.“

“We had a small wedding reception at OCB and while I would recommend it as a venue, I’d also recommend writing down exact details of what you want the event to go like. I don’t know if we ended up with inexperienced staff or just an odd night, but nothing really went like it should have. We were told two bartenders but there was only one, they didn’t seem to know when to bring out the food even though we said it was an open buffet, we asked them to serve slices of a cake from the back and instead they just placed it on a tray in the front and our guests had to slice and serve themselves. Every time we met with Bill he reassured us they’d done so many events and wedding there that they had it down pat, but it definitely didn’t seem like they did. On the whole, I’m still glad we had our reception there. The venue is awesome and the food is amazing! I’ve always heard great things about people using them as catering at other venues.“

“Food was outstanding, from the Cobia special to the rhubarb hand pie. Excellent food would highly recommend“

“This place is hidden but worth it & our bartender Rain is amazing. She's very knowledgeable and explains in details how the drink will taste. She's awesome I love when she bartenders. Definitely will come back to back when she's working.“

“Emerald Lounge was our favorite food stop of the entire weekend. The decor is moody and tropical, the staff looked effortlessly cool, and honestly, I felt a little sexier just walking through the door. What a vibe.

We ordered the crab Rangoon empanadas, pork lumpia, and Baja fish tacos, and every single thing was delicious. But those empanadas deserve a moment. Two beautifully golden empanadas with a sauce so good I wanted to dive in and swim around in it. Give me a spoon and a bowl of that sauce and I would be perfectly happy. Paired with the crispy pastry and creamy crab filling? I’ll be dreaming about them.

The fish tacos had generous pieces of crispy fish on little corn tortillas, and the pork lumpia with chili sauce was another winner. Everything looked as good as it tasted, right down to the dishes it was served in. The portions were just right for us to share and try several things.

Two Miami Vices with a little coconut rum floated on top had me feeling very good about our decision to start the weekend here. We enjoyed it so much that we seriously considered coming back for dinner the next night.

Beautiful space, delicious food, and drinks that encouraged us to keep the night going. Already planning my next visit and my next order. Although those empanadas are absolutely coming back to the table.“

“🐽 I love this kitschy bar! Chad and the crew are top tier odious earth pigs that serve some of the gnarliest slop and grog in town. 🐽 ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ 5 outta 5“

“Great social place for dogs and humans alike! This is Gidget a block from “the club”;)“

“Love Gather and Hem. Amazing service, very creative drinks and yummy food menu“

“We are from Savannah GA and are passing through on our way to our destination.
We decided to stop here for lunch and we are pleased!
We ordered the jalapeño poppers and two burgers.
The jalapeño poppers were stuffed full and super crispy.
Both burgers were cooked to the perfect medium rare temperature.
Madelyn was super friendly and attentive.
Great prices.
Thank you!“

“My husband asked the bartender/head mixologist, Steve Yang, for a gin based dealer's choice and he made the most wonderful drink I've had in a long time. He called it "Some kind of wonderful" it had dill, yogurt, and some other stuff and tasted like some hard to find European candy. Awesome!“

“Love this place! Such a great atmosphere. The new menu is so incredibly well done. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. Get the pork and chicken dishes, and don’t forget the salads! The fries and appetizers are of course excellent options, but don’t sleep on the main menu. They have empanadas just on Sundays and Mondays currently and those are absolutely delicious!“

“Chill and laid back vibe, loved the environment, waitresses were nice, food was good as hell!“

“The food was pretty good! I had the crispy fish, which that night was rockfish (love rockfish), and the fish and the sauce was really good. The giant cubes of grits didn’t really taste like anything and didn’t add much to the dish other than volume. Also my dish came out way later than the rest of my group’s food, they were almost done by the time I got mine. The waitress was very apologetic, which was nice, and it’s not her fault, but I felt bad making everyone else wait on me while I tried to eat quickly. The atmosphere was good, though! We did get the whipped ricotta for an appetizer and that was really excellent“

“A++++ went to The Park RVA for a first date and the best time!! Great comfortable atmosphere. Our server, Rose was the best. She was highly attentive and she really made our experience wonderful and memorable. We met the manager, Tamara and she couldn’t have been better. We appreciate the professionalism and exceptional service.“

“A nice restaurant with good food and service. The steak and chorizo tacos were very good!“

“Really great spot for food and drinks. The duckpin bowling is a lot of fun, and the pizzas are delicious. They have one of the best patios in Richmond and there’s always something fun going on. Definitely a go-to place to hang out!“

“Where do I even begin? This place is incredible! Hands down, it has some of the best burgers and oysters in Richmond. Every bite was amazing, and the quality really stands out.

What truly made the experience unforgettable, though, was the bartender, Oshane. His professionalism, attention to detail, and skill behind the bar are top-tier. He not only crafts excellent drinks but also creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.

If you’re in Richmond or even just visiting do yourself a favor and ask for Oshane. He’ll make sure your experience is nothing short of exceptional!“

“It has been sooooo long since ive had such AMAZINGLY GENUINE hospitality! From the inital greeting at the door to the moment we left we felt at home! The energy from the staff litterally rubbed off on me and my partner and we had the BEST time. I will 100% be back! We love Gabby!“

“Great burger with excellent service“

“I’m absolutely in love with Banditos Burrito Lounge! 😍 It’s the one and only! It’s been a RVA Legendary place since day one!!!! Good times, cheap drinks, live music, open late, great staff and quick service.“

“Delicious food! We usually order to go now that I don’t work near there but the food is always delicious!“

“After this place has been on “RVA Restaurants to Try” list for about 3 years, this was our first time eating at Fat Dragon, but it certainly not be our last! The wonton soup was the best my mother has ever tasted…keep in mind, she’s traveled all over the world. The ginger dressing was so delicious, I asked the server if they sold it in bottles. The garlic chicken and basil beef were both so tender and flavorful, I would highly recommend them both. And last but not least, our server was great! Do not wait to try this place like I did!!!! Go now!“

“Amazing experience this evening for my first time here. Our waiter, Josh, was outstanding, the food was really good, and the drinks were not weak! 😋 Will definitely be back!“

“There are a lot of really good things about this place, and a few odd things. The parking is great, Everyone is very friendly. However, when you get change they give you fake $1s, so was a bit thrown off by that. The stage is great, but there's no stage side sitting for tipping. So you have to get up to tip or hope they come by. The food slection is limited, and kinda seems like an after thought. And the music is both extremely loud and sometimes odd, like remixes instead of the original version. None of the chairs are fixed so that's good and bad. Sometimes the paths to walk get blocked, but you can arrange them together how you want. I had a chair with a wonky wheel. BUT ENOUGH OF THAT STUFF, Let's talk about the entertainment! So many Dancers! All were incredibly nice! All seemed very appreciative of tips, and felt like everyone hugged. The stage has two levels even though only the higher level seems to get used. Some were exceptionally athletic, some really knew how to move without ever climbing a pole. All of them were wonderful to look at. Not much range in kinds but all elegant and feast for the eyes. Some were exceptionally popular. and of course the more poular they were, more times than not they had a regular they sat back down with. If there are any you favor, you should ask immediately after they are on stage. Do come ready to spend, both on stage and in VIP. For VA, and what you see, the prices feel high but only because of how short the dances are. To the earlier part about asking for a dance as soon as they get off stage, should have asked Elizabeth or Ashley. Both of them were very popular! Got a good dance from Becky. Will be back to get more dances!“

“One of the best social gathering places in RVA. Love Scott’s Addition.“

“Great spot for our poker run. Lots of space, nice stage and tons to do. Food by Debbie was made to perfection. Troy is very kind and efficient. Very clean and friendly environment. Thank you for letting us hang out!“

“We love Barco! Mandy is awesome.“

“I went to Southern Kitchen tonight for the first time. I saw this restaurant on U-Tube for the top 10 black owned restaurants. And yes, this restaurant deserves it!👏🏽Everything was on point! The flavor of the food, the service, and the atmosphere!👌🏾 I'm definitely going back!“

“I waited all week to get a meal from Mama J ! I was very disappointed, my order was wrong no corn muffin ,got cabbage when I order collar greens. Waitress wrote collardgreens on my order but someone didn't read and gave me cabbage. Also gave me a teaspoon of potato salad .I came from Chesterfield to be disappointed. A 40.00 meal 0“
