About this business

GWAR is a famous heavy metal band that originated in Richmond and has opened this bar in collaboration with a veteran restaurateur. The theme bar is equal parts funky and gory as the decor includes fake blood on the floor and walls, and death metal music plays in the background. Posters, mementos and other paraphernalia related to the band line the walls, and even the menu items bear unique names based on the GWAR theme.

I am a huge fan of Gwar and drove 6 hours to visit. I loved the themed atmosphere! My husband and I ordered dinner. I would not recommend the Hail Seiten, it was not all that tasty in our opinion. However, collard greens were super yummy and I was happy with my custom beefcake burger once it was cooked properly. I ordered it well done and it came to me with a raw middle. Despite the mistake, the server was extremely friendly and quick to resolve the issue. If I am in town again, I would definitely stop by again!

I get out to the restaurant once a year, normally for the brutal brunch after GwarBQ. This time was my first time getting the normal menu. I was not disappointed!

Had an awesome early dinner with my family yesterday. The crab cake sandwich and fennel slaw were amazing! As well as the truffle tots, yum! Our waitress was very friendly and patient and made sure we had plenty of water on such a sweltering day. Lot's of cool GWAR history and memorabilia to check out. We will be back�
