“Best wine in NOVA. Be sure to visit this winery. You won’t regret it.“

“Thank you Melanie for being amazing at what you do. I am a member and also work at another winery. It's nice to have a fantastic experience with someone friendly, knowledgeable, and generous. shout out to Natalie too for always making a great impression. I love coming here!“

“A perfect place to have a party! Natalie was a wonderful event planner, our server was amazing (I wish I could recall his name), and the food and beer were delicious! The whole establishment was beautifully decorated for the holidays and there was live music throughout the day and night.“

“Love the atmosphere and the food. I came in by myself without reservations. The host at the front went out of his way to find me a table but none were available and a 45 minute wait. Finally a seat at the bar opened and he asked me if I minded sitting there, I said no problem. The bar tender who waited on me was very polite and friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Great service and checked on me frequently. I highly recommend this place! I had Fish and Chips snd Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert. That was soo good.“

“We are so grateful to have Vint Hill Craft Winery in our "backyard." My family loves the historic atmosphere along with the wonderful crew and fabulous wine, created by Mark! Since we are members, we go often to enjoy our $5 glass and play card games outside with our girls. It's a great opportunity to be with family but also enjoy some wonderful local wines. To top it off, they throw in some great events ranging from firepit Friday's (seasonal), wine makers events, and special events such as their recent Veterans Day Dinner. This event was amazing to attend! We started with some bubbly and then went into a four course dinner, catered by Pampas Fox, which was paired with some of their greatest wines. This event was perfectly done and such a wonderful way to honor those that serve or have served. If you've never been or haven't been in a while, make sure you stop in to enjoy some friendly faces and fabulous vino! Cheers!“

“Always a great time with a great staff!“

“This tiny little drive thru on the side of the road is so fun and so tasty! We were driving by and had to turn around to try it and it was totally worth the stop. The Bailey Irish Cream cheesecake was light and creamy, not too sweet, and simply perfect. The best cheesecake I've ever had. The gentlemen was so kind to show us the different cheesecakes and walk us through the options - I can't say enough about how great this experience was! We will now have to add this detour to our road trips!“

“My husband and I held our wedding reception at Cana this August and truly could not have asked for a more perfect venue. From the beginning, working with Meagan and Brittany was an absolute pleasure. They were incredibly kind, professional, and responsive throughout the entire planning process, always answering our questions quickly and making sure we felt prepared for our big day.

The cocktail hour space was exceptionally beautiful, and we received so many compliments from our guests about the setting. The covered pavilion made for the perfect dinner and reception space and, even in the middle of August, it was very comfortable and never felt too warm. It also accommodated our 150 guests perfectly, with plenty of room for everyone as well as a spacious dance floor.

Cana also provides a very detailed list of preferred vendors, which was extremely helpful throughout the planning process. At the same time, they were very flexible and willing to work with us when we chose vendors outside of their preferred list, which we greatly appreciated.

Everything came together beautifully, and we could not have been happier with our experience. We cannot recommend Cana enough! Thank you to Meagan, Brittany, and the entire team for hosting us and providing such a beautiful and memorable space for our wedding reception. It was truly the perfect place to celebrate our special day!“

“Best potato salad I've tasted for a long long time anywhere.“

“Best pizza we have ever had!!“

“Enjoyed a delicious dinner with my family this evening. Friendly, attentive service and great food. I loved the California fish taco. We will be back soon!“

“I love this place! The cinnamon rolls and monkey bread along with suffins. Yum the avocado toasts with different breads and toppings. The salads…EVERYTHING they prepare is fresh and delicious. Though it is often busy and you might need to wait 10 or 15 minutes…it is well worth it. One reason for the wait may be the preparation of specialty drinks including fabulous coffees and teas. A small number of indoor tables fill up quickly and outside seating is comfortable. The staff try very hard to assist every patron.. I LOVE HIDDEN JULES 💕“

“Love it here! Such a great atmosphere and the staff are great. I didn’t think I was a cider fan but I am now!“

“One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Excellent food and service“

“Beautiful winery with gorgeous views of the vineyards, rolling hills and Shenandoah mountains with lovely wines! Love the convenient location just outside of Haymarket!“

“Best oat milk cappuccino I’ve had in ages!“

“Delicious food and large portions. Def get what you pay for. Customers service was excellent“

“We found this little bakery and coffee shop while exploring the area over Labor Day weekend. We arrived early afternoon, so they were out of the lemon blueberry muffin. That’s understandable, so we bought a cinnamon roll and the orange cranberry muffin for breakfast the next day. In house, we enjoyed cookies and a cortado. The coffee drink was delicious and the barista was skilled indeed! They had a wide variety of pies and you could watch them making the pies on the other side of the shop! So, it is indeed a bakery! If you’re in the area and are looking for a treat and good coffee, it’s worth a stop!“

“Food was delicious and we enjoyed it!“

“Yes my wife and I almost didn't go in . Wow ! That would of been a bad mistake! This place is the Best I've had . Margaritas were on point , the food was on point and the service was on point. Don't pass it by !“

“Loved Barrel Oak! Staff was amazing. Venue was gorgeous with lots of seating. The wine was great too. Really liked most of the whites and a lot of the reds. Favorites were the Pinot Gris and the Red blend. Wonderful afternoon at Barrel Oak.“

“Visiting this wonderful gem for the past 4 years and never being disappointed, the please is clean, food is well prepared and fresh ... coffee is great and the ladies servers are very attentive.“

“We arrived at the Red Horse Tavern when outside patio seating was crowded with a 45-minute wait but inside we were greeted by a young man and given our choice of three tables in a small room to the right. We were waited on very quickly for drinks and food arrived timely. I couldn't believe how good the Irish burger and salad was, and my wife's Salmon was excellent. Our friends raved about their burgers with sweet potato and regular fries. Great servers made the whole experience relaxing. We felt special even though the room was full within ten minutes when we sat down. We definitely will return, and the prices are fantastic!“

“Always a 10/10 experience!“

“Everything about Goodstone is beautiful. The stay was amazing but I have to say, the staff above all, was wonderful. Kaitlyn was attentive and made sure my glass was never empty. Chef Jan, Chef Paul, and Sous-Chef Edwin out did themselves on a delicious six course meal.“

“Don’t get the razzle-dazzle large do to them putting in a small cup. Some time you may get the right size cup do to that you have two different prices one for small and one for large. Very up setting when you know what size cup you are supposed to get and know the difference. Especially when you go there all the time and you’re a regular customer and you spend over $30 or more in your ice cream products. Bad business to cheat your customers. There is know Excuse for this. I have been waiting days now to talk with the manager but they seem not will to talk about any problems you may have. That’s even so sad. I will not be going there no more .“

“great wine and beautiful scenery“

“Great cozy place with wonderful atmosphere“

“We stopped off here. on a whim because we needed to get some lunch before continuing on our travels back home. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The food was really great. and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. of particular note are the fried balls of rice with meat inside. I may have that incorrect, however it was probably one of the best appetizers I’ve had at an Italian restaurant. It’s very family oriented, with lots of space and tables and chairs. I could easily see this place being crowded during sporting events or weekends.

We sat inside. However, they have plenty of outside seating on a very cozy, beautiful front porch where you can watch the traffic go by and look at the mix of classic downtown architecture and newer modern buildings that attempt to mimic the older architecture so that they fit in more with Main Street.

With that aside, you can tell that the restaurant is family-owned and operated and takes its part in the community very seriously. I did not have an opportunity to hang out at the bar, but it looks like a fun place to watch sports if you are a Washington Capitals or Commanders fan.

If you’re in the area, passing through, or nearby, give this place a shot. I think you will like it.“

“Had a group of friends get together play cornhole and drink good beer. Live music and fun times. 😀“

“Juicy mushroom charburger“

“Me and my friend we’re from out of town and this cute boy greeted me and was extremely kind and friendly and helped us out with recommendations, the general tso chicken and crab rangoons are our personal favorites and overall the service was great, the food was excellent, and atmosphere is outstanding 10/10 would try again.“

“We were celebrating a milestone wedding anniversary and specifically chose the Gold Cup Wine Bar. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great. However, it was the Class A Service from our Server, Cayden who made us feel special!! Cayden went out of his way to be kind and to make us feel valued and appreciated!! He made our night! Thank you, Cayden!“

“Just had Father’s Day brunch at Harry’s with my 4 year old. They were extremely accommodating and the food was outstanding! So happy this place is only a few miles from home!“

“This is the best restaurant in NOVA! The food is always delicious and they are so nice. Their kebab platters are awesome.“
