Are you going here because you think a Twin Peaks themed bar would be really cool? If that's the only reason, you might be disappointed. With such a large and rich palette to choose from as the world of Twin Peaks, the atmosphere is severely lacking. A movie poster, a couple paintings and an admittedly cool neon sign is about all you're going to find. No stripy floor, no velvety curtains, no coffee, cherry pie or garmabozia, on the menu.

Quirky local bar with creative crafted cocktails next door to one of the best restaurants in Richmond. They share an entrance so you can start at either location and finish at the other.

The drinks are very good and I really enjoyed the ambiance. I did not get the chance to try their food, but I certainly will next time. Cheers!

The drinks are actually really well priced, but I just got a water. Had to ask the bartender in that usual style. Seems like other people were enjoying the alcohol. Generally fairly small; not much places to sit for a group of folks.

We’ve been here a few times and always enjoyed it but our most recent experience left a bad taste in our mouths. We asked the bartender Alex for the late night hot dog. He responded begrudgingly that it would take a while bc he hadn’t even turned on the machine to cook them and also that they closed in 40 minutes, so he wasn’t planning on turning it on. We were both disappointed bc we felt that 40 minutes wasn’t necessarily long enough to justify not serving us the food but said it’s fine bc we didn’t want to inconvenience him. We both then felt a very standoffish energy from him the rest of the time we were there. He was friendly and open with every other person that came in but (at least what seemed like) deliberately averted our gaze the entire time to the point where we were trying to close out for a while & couldn’t get his attention bc of how strongly he was ignoring us, all the while he’s taking shots w other customers next to us. Idk we’ve both worked in food service so we get it but the whole thing felt very uncool. Not only acting like 40 minutes was too much of an inconvenience to make 2 hotdogs on a little machine but following that up w/ this bizarre hostile energy the rest of the time. Felt weird, very uncool, didn’t appreciate. I hope it isn’t like this next time bc we usually love coming here!

As a bartender, I enjoy a good cocktail menu. Was able to try 3 drinks here and they were pretty good. The frozen "Sleigh Ya" was well balanced(I had 2), the Highway To the Manger Zone, a whiskey cocktail, was light and tasty, and the mezcal "Gifts of an Angel" was fairly light for a mezcal drink (in a good way). Would love to come after holidays to see what else they have
The food is weirdly amazing IMO. We had a shrimp roll that was excellent and a chicken sandwich that is basically Chick-fil-A but better by 100%, it is dangerous knowing that sandwich exists. The drinks are great, I had a frozen fernet + turbo coke and a frozen gin and tonic and both were awesome.Beer is definitely way overpriced. Imo get the frozen drinks. The novelty is nice and the flavors are good.I gave the atmosphere 3 stars bc Black Lodge is supposed to be modeled after the twin peaks bar and it's just not. They have a generic building and slapped some things here and there. I'm not even a hardcore Twin Peaks person and NO. Lol. Ok. I'll give 4. The atmosphere is fine, it's a bar where you can hear each other talking and I like that a lot.

It is easy to walk past this spot but once you walk inside you will enjoy the scenery. I had no idea this was so close to me. I ate the swordfish and pleased with how it was cooked. It tasted like.they used a tomato based sauce and although I favor lemon with fish, it worked for this dish. I would go and try a few more items on the menu.
