50 Best Bars in Virginia Beach

“Great tapas. Great service. Friendly staff.“

“Session was my first stop when I got off the plane in Norfolk and it did not disappoint. My food was delicious with very generous portions. It is often difficult finding a restaurant with a variety of vegetarian options but they are plentiful here! The atmosphere was upbeat and fun, yet casual. I loved everything about this restaurant, including the owner, Kevin! I highly recommend this restaurant & will definitely return on future trips to VB. Thanks Zebbie for the recommendation ♥️“

“Absolutely excellent food! Wonderful wait staff. Atmosphere is great and great tunes!“

“Delicious food, friendly atmosphere, great scene! Great variety of menu options and beer!“

“The Best #1 pregame spot in the City!!! Come See Us 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥 Every Wed-Sunday!! Always Good Vibezzz 🙌🏾😎💙“

“Cool little local place. Wouldn't recommend for a "fancy date". But awesome for a fun night out with friends/family. The beer selection, tacos and brisket are GREAT! They've also got a pool table. The bartender/host/waiter/cashier (seemed to be all the same guy when we were there) was REALLY on his game! As newcomers to the area we will definitely be back! THANKS for a really fun night 😁“

“Shuffleboard heaven😍 staff was great and an awesome value!“

“Many thanks for hosting the Veterans Luncheon today. You all were fantastic.“

“Stopped in for the first time today. Gotta say, I love the vibe and creativity put into the details. The bathroom decor was worth the visit. (Haha...no spoilers. Just go see for yourself.) You know when owners care about the small things, they're doing the big things right too!

Had a pale ale, Oktoberfest marzen, and Scottish Red Ale. All we're on point but the Red Ale absolutely scratched an itch I've had for a while!

Staff and crowd was just amazing. Walking in, I immediately felt like a regular.
We will definitely be back...“

“We had the BEST lunch at Beach Pub on Saturday Nov. 9 while spending the weekend in Va Beach. We all ordered appetizers and had a variety of tasty food. The service was friendly and fast. We will definitely stop there again!“

“Being new to Virginia Beach is quite an eye opening experience! The bartender here asked me questions that made me feel more comfortable then ever. Almost like home. Everyone there was having a great time. I can't wait to go back. Unlike that crazy Shirley lady, yikes ! Stay away from there. No Love. 3QM2B5“

“Met a colleague for lunch today - it was busy busy! Great menu and variety of options and a chill atmosphere. Owner is friendly and attentive! Loved it and we will be back.“

“Went there for my birthday and the stuff was amazing. Definitely knows how to make a girl feel special.“

“Great food, drinks, service, and atmosphere! Highly recommend!“

“Ken was a wonderful server-fast, friendly and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to have him as our waiter twice, as we went back to the establishment for lunch the next day and were thrilled when we were seated at his table because we knew he would make our dining experience a stress-free enjoyable one, and he did!“

“Great spot! Quickly becoming mine and my wife’s new local go to spot!“

“First time. I passed this bar every time I go to work and I've always been curious and it wasn't until a friend you told me about it and I decided to come I've met the owner and I must say I am having a really great time food and drinks are awesome service I appreciate you guys and everything that you do more power to you. You guys definitely get the job done and also kudos to the cook my steak was delicious thank you to jessica, alicia, alex, LJ y'all are so dope“

“A great time, decent food for the price. Only exception to my night out was the crazy patron doing duster in the bathroom. Between karaoke sets she was hassling other patrons about someone named "joshie". She eventually started beefing with security. Would def come out again.“

“Yummy seafood with exceptional waterfront views“

“Absolute favorite spot to spend a night out! Great food and drinks! I enjoy the small bites served with every visit! The lump crab cakes are a winner!“

“Great live music! Amazing venue with outside area“

“Parking: Row of 10+parking spots directly in front of entrance to the bar and more parking where it wraps around to little Caesars pizza.

Kid-friendliness: Holidays the business welcomes all to join with their free food events.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessable“

“The best Latin nightclub 757. I love it.“

“My server Andrew was professional, friendly, helpful, and attentive. The chef salad was just as one would hope. But best of all, for me anyway, was the volume (low enough to enjoy conversation) and genre (classical!) of music. Such a very nice change of pace from country (ugh) or loud sportz on a TV.“

“My friends and I had different plans for the night we went here but on a whim decided to switch it up. Place chosen at random except one friend recommended it. We had a blast! Between the karaoke, meeting other people, fun $5 shots wheel/game, and bartender - I’ve never laughed so much. At first the bartender Johnathan wasn’t sure about us haha but we had fun and tipped him extremely well. He was the best! Next time I’ll still ask for a strawberry marg and hope they have syrups lol. And I never got around to trying the zucchini fries but that sounded so good. Other food was good. Marilyn Monroe bathroom was so cool! Really didn’t have to think much about anything I’ve never laughed so much in one night. Definitely local Virginia Beach vibes. We’ll be back for sure!!

Vegetarian options: Potato wedges, fries, fried pickles, zucchini fries, I can’t remember what else but you won’t starve in a pinch if you’re vegetarian/vegan so no worries!

Parking: Plenty of parking

Dietary restrictions: Vegan and vegetarian options!“

“I am so glad that my wife and I went here to Park Lane Tavern tonight. We have been so close so many times for that past five years and have never gone. We definitely experienced a great place… our drinks were perfect, as well as our food!!!… and our waiter Douglas was the best. Jim was amazing as well!!! We will be going back soon and very soon❤️❤️!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Visited this place while on vacation, 3 nights out of the 6 we were there. Owner, her son , and the other workers definitely go out of there way to help and treat you like family . Lot of great singers to watch , and plenty of chances to join in and sing . Friendly , funny , caring workers !!!“

“Mermaids in Virginia Beach is a lot of fun!! Went in there the other night with some friends and the girls were so friendly, they made us feel right at home. They were amazing to watch! I was told they are getting ready for the Pole and Floor show competition on Saturday, May 18th. I think that's worth going to just from what I saw. The specials were fantastic and the menu was great for either a late night snack or a quick lunch. The music was good, kept everyone upbeat and the security was visible, but not over imposing, and that made everyone comfortable. Can't wait to go back and drag a few more friends out! Of course I would feel comfortable walking in there alone for a drink and a snack :)“

“I have been going to this place since December and the staff is great. The ladies are beautiful and friendly. The DJ Bowtie plays great music. Special shout out to Cam, Donta, Angel, Josie, and Cort for always taking care of my needs. Dancer shout out to Egypt, Seven, Babylon, Melanin, Rosy….the list goes on and on.“

“Fast friendly service. Food was piping hot and delicious!“

“Enjoyed celebrating my birthday at the Cavalier!“

“We ordered take out while at Sandbridge
i only gave 3 stars for service because when i got there our food was ready but i had to wait for the bartender to serve drinks and food to the people at the bar so I didn’t particularly like that set up.
We had the Salmon dinner and it was delicious, along with the Tuna bite appetizer and Bacon wrapped Shrimp
I definitely would purchase from here again“

“I LOVE SANDBAR IM THERE EVERY WEEKEND! shout out to PJ, Ryan, Stan, Gordo, Sadie, Hector, Nick, Frank and the rest of the sandbar crew!“

“Ate there 14 months ago on a first date with who is now the love of my life! So much fun, food amazing, service was great, have been meaning to get back here soon!“

“Small, but vibrant atmosphere. Not stingy with the alcohol. Margaritas were great. Food was perfect. And the best part, is the prices. Cheapest meal all week at the beach. Prices are no more than any other authentic Mexican restaurant.“

“one of our favorite restaurants in the area. when family visits they always want to stop by. also love the burger of the months!“

“The food is always beyond excellent and the staff are without a doubt the best...and they make the best dirty martinis!!!!“

“Amazing ownership. Great vibes. Must see.“

“The service, omg was amazing, I applaud all the servers, spot on!! The food was delicious and portions were big!! The price is sooooo affordable! I will definitely be back!!“

“Best food in Hampton roads.
*Add Edit- 6 years after this review and after I ate there tonight.
With high cost and decline in portion and quality this place has to be the best place in Hampton roads a locally owned restaurant that gives you what you pay for. I've never had a bad dish here. I can't explain how important it is to be consistent and just plain good. I've eaten a lot of food in the 757. And I always try to eat at local not franchise restaurants. But it is what it is and this place is it.“

“absolutely one of the best pizza's I have ever had.“

“Celebrated my husband's 63rd birthday tonight. Everything was beyond perfect! Drinks, Appetizers, best steak I've ever had and the most sinfully delicious dessert! And our server Kelly was spot on too. Definitely would recommend a night out here!“

“I'm in Virginia Beach for work and I have to say the food was absolutely amazing . I went twice this week . But, the customer service is far better than the food !! My server yesterday EMILY WAS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD AT A RESTAURANT !! John the bartender on Monday 10/21 and the hostess ( I forgot her name black younger woman with a long weave ) . Were absolutely phenomenal ! They offered great suggestions for food and drinks . I wanted to leave and try another restaurant with would food but, those two customer service made me stay . All 3 are a gem that you don't find anymore in customer service . No matter how great the food maybe at a restaurant customer service is the most important part . They exceeded my expectations ! I went into work and told my coworkers that live in Virginia Beach they must try this place out ! The chicken, mac n cheese , and bisque are by the far the best !! Next time I'm in VA I WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK !!“

“Ashley, our waitress was the best! She recommended us great food & drinks & they were so good. Everything we ordered was delicious! Ashley was very professional & kind & friendly. We will definitely go there again when we're in town & request Ashley as our waitress. Thank you for the great service & food!“

“KAMRIN TOOK WONDERFUL CARE OF MY SERVICE DOG!!! THANK YOU! Food was good.“

“It is now called Double D's on Bonney Road..This place is big so even though some people may smoke in there it is not really noticeable..The wait staff is so friendly Toni is a awesome bartender and the others are great too just did not get their names. The owners are on scene and down to Earth Kelly and Mike..And the atmosphere is light with music always going. This place is super clean from the floors to the bathroom..The food is much better than the average bar food..So if you and friends want a great place to have fun and kick back go to Double D's“
