“ Have you tried their food? 10/10. No contest. The pork belly The beer? A bit with every brew! And their bathrooms are so inclusive. What a great find in Richmond ”
“ This place is massive. They have plenty of drink options, beyond just brews. They had cocktails and frozen drinks too. They also serve food too. Plenty of standing and seating area, order at the counter so no real table service (not a con), the line moves quick. ”
“ I've loved beers from the veil for years. Therefore, I had high hopes from a brewery visit. This place did not disappoint. The beers are always absolutely phenomenal. The vibe of the place was laid-back but urban. Service was kind and outstanding. I wish we had more time to spend there, because the restaurant inside the brewery smelled amazing. I highly recommend. ”
“ Visiting for a work trip and took advantage of some free time to visit a brewery I have drank plenty of but never visited. Walking in, I knew to expect hazy ipas and barrel aged stouts. I was not let down! The venue felt very new and was super clean. It had a cool little food venue built in with several seats, and a nice little merchandise section. The beer options were plentiful and I was sad I could only have a couple small pours due to plans later in the evening. I was really hoping for some smaller flight size options but they do not offer them. As someone who previously bartended, I understand not having them but I still was hopeful! I was pleasantly surprised by a solid whiskey list alongside the beers. The to go cooler was also loaded with all kinds of goodies. The staff was knowledgeable and easily pointed out some crowd favorites, personal favorites and suggestions based on my preferences. Great beer tender, I didn't catch his name but he was a smaller statue guy, tattoos, and wearing what was maybe a long kilt? I look forward to revisiting and grabbing some food as well as more beers. ”
“ For my last review I gave them only 2 stars because their food was horrendous, but they have since revamped their menu. They once again have karaage chicken, but this time it is done right - all boneless meat, more than just 2 pieces of chicken, and the breading is perfect. HUGE improvement from a year ago. The beer has always been good, but now the food is up on the same level. ”
“ This place has it all! Large variety of beverage options - including wines, cocktails. The staff is more than helpful when selecting beers. The food is good (but have only had the wings and fries). There are tvs to catch sporting events with plenty of seating options (inside and out). The line can get crazy and the environment loud when going during peak hours but we tend to avoid those times. Def a fan! ”
“ I've been a fan of The Veil since their first location. This location on Moore Street (although the address is Belleville) is even nicer. Met a colleague here last night for a work session. Ordered my lager and fried chicken and found a spot on the patio to pop open my laptop and get to work. Nice, open space with large tables and umbrellas should it be needed to shield you from the sun. Open area inside as well with sexy event space, too. My lager hit the spot. The fried chicken was fried a little too hard and past tender, but the flavor was pretty good. Parking can be tricky, especially since the implementation of those strange bike lanes. Oh, and please fix the "ramp" inside the front door. It cannot possibly be graded to code. I stutter step on it each and every time. ”
“ Recently got to try a beer from The Veil Brewing and I have to say that it was a fairly decent experience! The Master Shredder is what Steve and I had. It's a New England IPA and was pretty refreshing! With tropical, hoppy and dry flavors this light and smooth beer would be great with pub fare type food! ”
