Smartmouth Brewing Co. Brewery • $$
1309 Raleigh Ave, Norfolk

“My husband and I hosted our co-ed baby shower and rented the warehouse space for a couple hours. The service was 10/10 fantastic - from the event planning to the bartender services, it was so chill, professional, and great! I will say, to rent the space, i felt like it was initially a little pricey ($350 for the whole warehouse + a bar minimum) but I will admit, the space is huge! We had about 40+ guests attend, and we probably could have fit another 60+ comfortably. We really enjoyed the aspect of being able to bring in our own catered food and non-alcoholic drinks (for the kiddos and for me as the preggo!). Everything was fantastic - I was worried how private it would feel since normally that space would be open to the public, but it was great!“

The Bold Mariner Brewing Company Brewery • $$
1901 E Ocean View Ave, Norfolk

“No brewery in the area has given me a more welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. Sitting on porch watching the sunset, or at a table in the corner reading a book. The servers are friendly and always quick on the taps; and CPO IPA has been my 4-pack to go for every trip or party for the last 2 years. Grab some Bar-Q while you’re at it.“

Benchtop Brewing Company Brewery • $$

“This place is great. Is small inside and the wind rips thru it on the outside but the beer is good and the people are nice. I make it a point to come here for their super tasty sours. The rivits on the chairs outside will rip your hair out, that's like the only bad thing.“

The Veil Brewing Co. Brewery • $$
2314 Colonial Ave, Norfolk

“Layout is open. Even on the third floor, very spacious during busy hours. Second level offers a sort of hideaway for those who might be a tad overwhelmed by the third floor. Offering of three formal mocktails on the menu is great - really enjoy the yuzu beverage. Fries were the unexpected highlight — McDonald’s style and flavor. Mac and cheese was okay. The chicken sando was exactly as described and delicious. Hit the spot.“
