“Went to Hooked for the first time for my birthday. My husband and I went in a literal hour before they closed and we didn't feel rushed. Destiny was our waitress and so sweet and attentive. The drinks were strong, the food was awesome and fairly priced and I didn't feel rushed as I sat there and ate my 360 tower. We will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“First time visit but certainly not the last. Highly recommend. Superior food and drink 🍹“

“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“

“This place is amazing. It was our first time there and they made the experience wonderful. The drinks and the food were fantastic. The restrooms were very clean. Staff was friendly and professional. We are going back in a few weeks and I can't wait. I recommend getting a ride to and from, most of the drink are strong and there is no need to be behind the wheel. We did this and it made the experience better.“

“Me and my best friend went here for a new atmosphere for drinks since many other places aren’t what they used to be! The bartenders were SO WONDERFUL and free spirited! Helped us figure out what we wanted and were pretty engaging. And the drinks were so amazing and got us feeling comfortable in no time! Customers were nice too. Conversations were flowing everywhere it was pretty cool. Definitely will be back.“

“Been a regular of Bryant’s for about a year. Every experience I have had has been chill and I felt very comfortable with the bartenders and vibe very quickly. They specialize in brut dry cider with a great selection of different flavors. They have options for people who prefer a sweeter cider. There is ways to spruce it up. Yummy cider daiquiris in the summer. I loved Bryant’s so much since my move to Richmond I just recently was hired on as a bartender. This place made me wanna stay. Definitely recommend to anyone who loves cider and a good atmosphere with a cool aesthetic 🖤“

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

“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 🍟 👁“

“Food was average at best. Out of everything including a cook. Actually closed the kitchen for about 30 minutes because cook was at end of shift and no one there to replace him. They are listed as a Priority Pass discounted restaurant and when asked, they looked at me like I was crazy. No clue.“

“Best friendly neighborhood bar in town.“

“It's a dive bar where most people know each other's names. That's what makes it a staple in the community over there. One pool table so if you want some competition, go at night. Not really known for their food, it's a dive bar 🤷🏾. Nice people but if you're sensitive, just don't go lol“

“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.“

“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.“

“Cirrus is simply the best! Went to have a couple cocktails with my wife. Bar snack mix was delicious, the Paloma, and the pickled briney boy were the best drinks I’ve had in Richmond! Tom Ellington and staff are outstanding. I enjoyed getting to know Andy and Winnie. Both super friendly and engaging with the customers. Could not ask for a better spot to have a cocktail!“

“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!“

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

“🐽 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“

“We made reservations since we heard they were doing a Christmas Pop-Up theme. Went on a Sunday Evening and they had a good amount of people there watching football. Lots of screens and a large bar in the middle. They actually had 2 bars, just the second wasn't open. You can also get a beer card and serve yourself from a quite of number of taps they have on site paying by the ounce. The staff was top notch! From checking us in, which might have been a manager or owner whomever he was super. Our waiter was really great as well, matter of fact a couple, when we moved to the bowling another waiter made sure we were all set as well. Once a lane opened up the manager came over and got us all set. It's not a true duck pin lane, pins are on strings, but it was a lot of fun! They even have order a pizza and get 2 games free. Place is pretty big. Lots of seating, especially for large groups and near the second bar they had it all set up for a private event being catered. Large patio. Lots of fun, food was good, great place to check out a game and have a drink.“
