Virginia Beach

Virginia Beach is the largest city in Virginia and a major East Coast beach resort destination, and its bar scene reflects that scale - BarFinder lists 259 venues, led by a huge sports bar presence alongside a deep bench of classic bars, lounges, pubs, breweries, and gastropubs. Kelly's Tavern and Keagan's Irish Pub & Kitchen are real local institutions, while Yard House and Smokey Bones cover the bigger chain-restaurant-bar crowd that beach-resort cities tend to draw. From a boardwalk sports bar to a neighborhood gastropub, Virginia Beach's nightlife spans the full range a major resort city demands.
