20 Best Beer Bars in Richmond

“First time visit, excellent service and the food was delicious!!!“

“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.“

“We had such a great time at trivia night at Väsen. The questions were actually fun and well thought out, probably some of the best trivia we’ve played in terms of variety and challenge. This spot is also my husband’s favorite for non-alcoholic options, which means a lot since he doesn’t drink. It’s one of the few places where he still feels totally included in the vibe while we’re out having fun. Great beer and great energy.“

“Trivia Night. Made it through Dragons & Fictional Places; was thoroughly disappointed in myself & hubby. In our defense we were a team of 2 everyone else had 6 + teammates. The food was so yummy. Great place.“

“lovely owners and staff! great service and food and drinks. check out trivia and karaoke on Thursday nights!“

“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.“

“The bacon wrapped scallops are wonderful. The chicken pot pie was the best I have ever had. My compliments to the Chef �“

“Our favorite brewery patio. Harris the Westie loves it, always doggies there. Great beer, tasty food, great cross-section of the city.“

“We catered a welcome dinner for our wedding for 90 guests through Jalapenos in Carytown. The event was at a local brewery. We ordered a wide variety of items including tortillas, fajitas, steak, chicken, rice, quesadillas, dip, and other items. All the food was extremely fresh and tasty, with great portions! It came right on time, and was set up perfectly! We received so many compliments on all the food, and people kept going back for seconds. Carlos and his team were such a pleasure to work with, and cared so much about the success of our event. We could not recommend them enough.“

“Bike and hiking trail next to brewery. Lots of parking and seating.“

“Solid cheese steak hoagie. Love the sesame roll. We ate at the bar, I enjoyed a crisp topochico, while my partner had a hazy IPA. We split the cheese steak hoagie (minus pickled peps). Classic fries and delicious potato salad. Looking forward to coming back and trying the tomato pie.“

“An easy 5/5 stars. The food is immaculate, and quite honestly incomparable. In my opinion, I think it’s the best restaurant in VA! Every menu option of food is good, and the drinks are great. The volcano drink is a staple and very unique! Mekong is a must go-to stop when stopping in the Richmond area!“

“Great authentic restaurant!“

“Absolutely delicious and great customer service. Highly recommend. The Seafood Pie & Fried Fish are must tried!“

“Capital Beverage has been amazing to work with for at least 3-4 years now. They are very quick to pivot and help you when there's an emergency which is rare to find from companies these days. I wish them great success in the future and our Vagabond team appreciates JD, Russ, Braden and the rest of their team tremendously.“

“Ordered a Grilled Cheese.. Simple right?? Nope.... I got a hunk of melted cheese thrown inside a regular hamburger bun, nothing grilled or good about it.. And the bacon my boss got was cold..“

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

“Moving from the west coast I was worried I wouldn’t find good Mexican restaurants. Thank god I found this gem! They smoke their meats fresh everyday and it’s amazing! Pastor, asada and chicken are all absolutely delicious! Highly recommended! Staff are great, environment is authentic and welcoming! If you’re looking for a great meal stop in and try it!“

“I couldn’t wait to review this meal! I didn’t take a picture but the salad was phenomenal. I got the chopped salad with a couple modifications and added the tarragon chicken salad. The house dressing is fantastic! This is one of my favorite salads of all time, I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in the Richmond area!“

“Bloody Mary and any of the pizzas. Appetizers are yummy too!“
