Fairfax
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Fairfax, Virginia
Fairfax, the seat of Fairfax County in Northern Virginia and home to George Mason University, sits in the DC metro's dense suburban sprawl. BarFinder lists 38 venues here, led by sports bars and classic bars, with a real brewery and gastropub presence - spots like Ornery Beer Company and NoVa Bar & Grill reflect a scene that serves both a college crowd and the broader Northern Virginia commuter population. It's a suburban scene built for a quick after-work drink as much as a college night out.
