12 Best Bars near North Garden

“What a unexpected surprise. This is a small little bar/restaurant. The food is a little more than typical bar food. I had the fish and chips, it was very good, crispy outside and tender inside full of flavor.
The server Smitty was awesome. Give them a chance you won't be disappointed.“

“My husband and I picked tulips this morning and had a blast! It is late in the season but they still had so many beautiful flowers to pick from. Would highly recommend and we will be doing it again next year!!!“

“Today (June 28, 2026), I ordered biscuits and sausage gravy with two scrambled eggs from the brunch menu. The gravy and biscuits were delicious as well as the eggs (really how can you mess up scrambled eggs?). I ate half of the meal bringing the other half home for a later meal. The wait staff was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant was clean. The music was not loud nor were conversations from other patrons. I recommend this restaurant for good food and pleasant atmosphere.“

“This was our first time here man was it good. Nice clean location and the service was great. So nice to walk into an actual pizza restaurant and get hit with the smells of pizza. Most of the places around here, just have pizza as an item on the menu, but not as the centerpiece. I ordered the side Caesar salad was delicious and the spinach and artichoke dip we ordered, was as well, but come on...8 little pieces of bread is not enough for all that dip. We ordered the house pizza to share and it was delicious. This is our new favorite Charlottesville pizza. Paper straws are trash…trash I say, and I will bring my own plastic straws next time.“

“Had a great dinner and amazing cocktails made with care and sophistication - no heavy syrup which I find so often at other establishments. Randy and Dante provided excellent service and went out of their way to make our experience special. Will definitely be back!“

“Can't speak on the food because I have never had it but service is solid and atmosphere is unmatched. It's rarely if ever so crowded that you are uncomfortable and they more often than not will have live music. Easily my favorite spot to go close to grounds.“

“Went to Glass Half Full with a friend for a quick lunch before shopping. We were seated quickly and waited on by a very friendly server while there. The service was fast, although I was a big fan of the grilled fish tacos I ordered. I think I would have preferred the fried version better. My friend however very much enjoyed her grilled salmon salad. I was also pleased at the attention that the server gave to my friends dairy allergy.“

“Eastwood is my favorite winery in Charlottesville and has been for years. When my 50th birthday was on the horizon, and I decided to have a party, Eastwood was the first place that entered my mind. Given the time of year and the day of my birthday, Eastwood was already busy with many events and could not accommodate my request. But I learned that Eastwood had recently bought the former Michael Shapps building on Avon Street. It is now the Virginia Wine Collective (VWC), and the floor above the tasting room is a lovely event space with the ability to serve delicious Eastwood wine and offer amazing food. Once I visited the space, I knew that I had found the perfect place to have my party. I began working with Mary on the menu and food timeline and throughout the process she was available to answer my questions and offer suggestions.

The space comfortably held around 35 guests, snack table, bar, food buffet and dance floor. Mary and Gaby handled the bar, while Corey worked his magic in the kitchen. The food options were fantastic. The feedback was great. And for me, I was thrilled that Mary and Corey made sure there were vegan options – more than I had expected. The pasta dish, roasted veggies and warm chickpeas were all vegan. (And my carnivore friends/family did not notice.) The warm chickpeas were a huge hit – I’ve been asked to get the recipe.

A huge THANK YOU to Mary, Gaby and Corey for helping me make my party at VWC a memorable one for me and my guests.“

“We went to a movie there on a Friday. We were happy to discover $4 pint beers on happy hour in the bar on the way into the theater. M-F 4-7 pm presently, so go a little early to your movie or just drop by for drinks and dinner.

The munu is good and the service is really quick and good too inside the theater. My BBQ chicken pizza was nice and hot when served to us in our seats in the theater. However, it's a personal size pretty much. I hijacked a few French fries from my wife and was surprised how good they were even though they had been sitting a while and had cooled off. It's really nice to be able to order a pint of beer and have it brought to you during the movie. Check out their passes... I think for the first tier on the second movie in a month you pretty much break even and a third in a month is free.“

“Crozet Pizza is the best. Nice to be able to enjoy it on The Corner! We will be back!“

“Food was great. Sitting on the toilet all night afterwards wasn’t“

“The food is great!! The people are amazing!!😻“
