23 Best Bars in Richmond

“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“

“Professionally: I found this establishment on a chance. But once I entered it was a complete vibe. Owners are genuinely nice & treats everyone with dignity & respect. Place makes you feel like you're welcomed home. Servers at this point remember my drink order and you can't forget about mama. I started off saying professionally, but this place really is like a family. Not to mention the food is banging. You gotta try mama Lo's seafood salad. I'm from bmore and its my starter!!

Personally: I don't honestly know or think they know what the owners have done for me or given me. I've always loved music, but have never been confident in myself. But these ladies have taken a chance on me time & time again. Them believing in me had made me believe myself. The amount of love they show, the amount of care they give, & the amount of believe they have has made me a better singer & person all around. So I truly truly thank them. I'm honored to be apart of your extended family.“

“A must stop if you are in Richmond!! Wonderful Rums & Gin!! We own a Rum Distillery so we should know!! I had the Rum Paloma!! Fabulous!! Mike was our bartender! Very knowledgeable! Met Brad one of the owners! Loved hearing their story!“

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

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

“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!!!“

“Love the burgers, great restaurant! Just wondering what’s up with pick up orders. Haven’t been able to get ahold of anyone the past two days.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Great Dive Bar and prices are pn the less expensive side. Liked the regulars I met and bartender was kind. I was just killin' time on my wat to grab my dogs fro. the groomer, but I'll be back. Country music playin' inbackground, a few TVs, so.e games, booths, and bar seating. Cool little covered area outside too.“

“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 🍟 👁“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“We recently visited Cirrus Vodka for a date night and had a great overall experience. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting—perfect for a casual evening out. The service was friendly and welcoming, which we really appreciated. The drinks were good, though they seemed a bit light-handed on the vodka. Overall, it’s a nice spot for a laid-back night, and we’d consider coming back.“

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

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

“🐽 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“

“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!“

“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.“
