Didn't eat here. Just drinks. Place was very busy and extremely loud. 100% bar. Not sure about food.

Two sides... Smoking side and non-smoking side.. Both sides have gambling machines... Have to goto the bar tender and tell her the machine # you want. Drinks are good, service is great and prices are reasonable... Gamble all night at Rossie's when they close a midnight swing by here for some last chance better for the night.. Crowd is entertaining. It's a late nite dive bar... read more

One of the cooks allegedly used lye instead of salt while preparing food. A customer noticed something was wrong and complained. Instead of being informed about the issue, the customer's meal was quietly removed and comped. Lye is extremely dangerous if ingested. After the incident, one of the cooks reportedly became sick after tasting the food to confirm what was used and had to be taken to the hospital. He was then instructed not to say anything about what happened. This situation is very concerning and raises serious questions about safety and management. The handling of this incident was irresponsible, and those in charge particularly management should be held accountable. read more

We survived the pandemic the same way we survived 30 years baby.... Good service, good food, and strong drinks... BOOOOO James S

You really have to be okay with smelling like an ashtray to come here. I am not one of those people. There are two sides to the bar - one is smoking and the other is non-smoking in theory but still reeks of smoke and I watched someone sit at the bar and smoke. I know people visit for Wednesday night karaoke (that's what drove me to visit). The cocktails and shooters are good but sugary and pack a punch. Not too enjoyable, personally. They have a pool table on the non-smoking side. The women's bathroom on that side is really nice and well kept. Service is hit or miss. I don't imagine I'll return. I like my lungs. read more

See all

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! .. Best sports bar in RVA. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout your experience in this well defined establishment. The food and service is top notch. John the kitchen manager delivers nice specials and the bar is cozy. Sometimes the owner is there to greet you with a smile. My friends and I absolutely adore this gem of a jewel...., read more

I visited this location on a Saturday around noon the bartender was very hospitable and courteous in knowing what could she help me with...the bar was empty that Saturday but live there menu prices but not sure what the food is like and the beer was very reasonable priced. Would visit agin in the near future to experience the bigger crowds.... read more

My husband and I stopped here the other day as we wanted to play pool and this place came up in our search. We walked in and asked the bartender, who was very nice, about playing and he told us we needed to head next door. We walked into the next door area and felt incredibly out of place, like we had just walked in someone's home uninvited. Anyway as we looked around and saw a small packed bar, a whining toddler and only one pool table which was being used, so we left. read more

I go to Breakers because they are one of the few remaining bars that allow smoking. They also have a non-smoking bar next door. The food is always good and there are inexpensive menu specials daily. And their wings are nice and crispy! read more

One of the best places to get steamed shrimp. Seriously! I am from Virginia Beach and I can be very picky on how my shrimp is cooked and this place by far has the best quality for the price! Shrimp is half off on Mondays too. I like mine with extra old bay and I am never disappointed! read more

A fine place to watch sports if you don't mind a little cigarette smoke. At the time of this review, Breakers has a smoking bar and a non-smoking bar, but the non-smoking bar still smells like old cigarette smoke. The bar has a threadbare carpet and cheap furniture, but there are plenty of televisions and the beer and food are reasonably cheap with specials every day of the week. Breakers is a good place to go to watch sports and to smoke indoors, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything beyond that. read more

I like the place and like most of the people except one bartender named Trey. He is a snippy sarcastic woke fool who gets triggered so easily. He also tries to to control what people talk about. I told him he would never see me again. I mean, this guy is a real woke immature idiot and a jerk. read more

Felt sorry for over worked waitress but food was a two wasn't good. Fries are good that's all! A bunch of older men who drink there end watch tv, gamble, drink. Sad. read more

Music was fun I enjoyed singing with my fiancée but the lady serving seemed annoyed had only Coors, Corona and Budlight platinum for beers. She also couldn't make a lot of cocktails due to being out of mixers. When I received my sea breeze cocktail it wasn't what I was expecting which was , cranberry juice with vodka. Had an off citrus flavor, was watery and the liquor was cheap. I wound up getting sick out my fiancees window on the way home and am still under the weather. read more

Breakers Sports Grill - Sea breeze cocktail - Sports Bars Near Me - Henrico, Virginia

"What kind of beer do you have?" "Everything you want." "How about a Blue Moon?" "Don't have that." "How about a Hefeweisen?" "Don't have that." "How about any kind of amber." "Don't have that." If you smoke and you want to smoke when you eat, like cheap domestic beer, and eat only to fill the void, you'll like Breakers. Simple burgers and fries are less than $5. You WILL leave smelling like smoke. Karaoke night on Tuesdays with a long rotation. Most people sing country. read more

The angry old bartender with the greasy pony tail serves whoever he wishes and disregards anyone who isn't a regular. At last call, he refused to serve me another beer while still pouring drinks for others for at least 10 minutes. He should seriously rethink his profession as a bartender and management should employ people who actually want to do their jobs. read more

I went to breakers today to get on some slot machines . I won a good amount and went to scan my ticket it asked for assistance . I asked AMANDA WHO RAN THE BAR. And I told her it said ask for assistance. She walked to the back . Once I turned around she was at the bar looking at me and once we made eye contact she asked me what did I need I told her again . Once I said that too her she started going off on me . Saying she's the only one working . Called me bitches , yelled at me , threatened me as well stating she's not the one too be fucked with . All I asked her was too call the people that would pay me out and she told me not to repeat myself she came around the bar like she was about to fight me and everything . A lot of the customers said she's a lot to deal with and may not like black girls . David who runs the games ended up comming a hour later and she acted like nothing happened . I will be escalating this if AMANDA IS NOT FIRED !! I have videos and key witnesses read more

This place is complete trash. The owner drowns himself in liquor all day and the staff is beyond rude. I've gotten sick so many times from the food I can't count. Department of health should check that kitchen out before they kill someone and the staff could be a little better. Remove the drugs the staff and customers do and do a better job!!! Will never come here again. read more

I tried to buy a shot for a down on his luck gentleman. I was refused by the kind young lady behind the bar. In this time of chaos this place is a sanctuary of peace and morality. read more

I love local, dive bars, but Breakers is a crap bar. Even if you smoke, that place was tough on the lungs. We were in the non-smoking room, and I came out with emphysema. Didn't order food because I could not imagine it tasting like anything but an ashtray. Budweiser on tap, whoa. If you want to play the ponies, it's good. If you are a degenerate gambler, even better. read more

I came here one night with one of friends on a Friday night. First thing I noticed when I got in here was that it was really empty. My friend comes here often with his friends, so the bartender knows him. The bartender that works there (Trey) is mad cool. I didn't try any food here but I normally don't get food from bars. I only drink there. Oh yeah, I also noticed that there was only guys in there that night....which is maddd lame! All in all...I would come back if I'm in the area akatek1 read more

This place sucks, the staff is rude the food is cold and tasteless. I complained to the manager and he insulted me. If you want to bet the horses, head downtown. read more

Came here on a Thursday night about 11:30pm to try to get a few games of pool in.... okay... walked in and it just smelled like smoke. I don't mind smoking but at least have some type of ventilation. Anyway one of the girls uncovered a pool table for us which was in a separate room. The room sucks by the way. The tables don't even work properly, after putting the money in the halls wouldn't come out. So we asked someone to open it so we could get the balls though she came out to open it she replied with a "y'all are cutting into my drinking time" humph.. ...... we played one game and attempted another and the same thing happened with balls (we tried again because we were told we were using the table that "works") so I guess they wanted to drink and not help us out so they just have us two dollars. Ehhhhhh I won't be coming back at all. read more

Being new to Richmond, I was looking for a local sports bar to watch my favorite teams. I was excited to check out Breakers. Unfortunately, I don't see myself going back. I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for a sandwich, a few beers, and some college football. I had a chicken philly but I had to leave before halftime because the cigarette smoke is SO thick in there. Horrible. My lunch tasted like cigarettes. My clothes and hair now smell like cigarettes. My eyes are burning. I think myself and one other patron were the only ones NOT smoking. It was my understanding that smoking indoors was illegal so I'm not really sure why patrons are allowed to do it. Regardless, it's pretty gross. I don't think they have any ventilation or fans. Very disappointed because it looks like exactly the kind of local spot I was hoping for other than that. But that is a huge dealBREAKER for me. read more

Soooo smokey! I thought it was illegal to have indoor smoking in VA? The cosmo was good, and they have kiosk betting for the horse races. The smoke alone is why I will never go back, and why its getting a 1 star rating. It took 2 showers to get my hair to stop smelling like smoke! read more

Love this place. Great friendly staff. Good specials on drinks and better than you might think grub. Incredible place to watch sports or bet on the hourse races. read more

SO SMOKY and gross. Can't handle it. The non-smoking area is an embarrassment. Sorry OTBers. A disappointment. Off to take a shower to get the stink off me. read more

I love it because it is one of the few remaining bars where I can light up. And the prices are very fair too. Kind of a neighborhood bar except it has OTB now. Good variety of sports on TV daily. BTW, to all of you whiny cry-babies who complain about your hair smelling from smoke...Don't Go There! Simple. You have the freedom to go somewhere else, like the other 99% of bars in the area that are smoke-free. But no, you want to take away one of the few remaining smoking bars from us who do not have the choice to go elsewhere. So STFU and stop writing negative reviews because you were too stupid to drive 2 minutes to another bar instead! read more

Seems to be a local hangout. Nice place. Didn't think it would be this busy for a Wednesday night but they have karaoke tonight. Place is full. Tara, the bartender, didn't let me run dry. And they have plenty of TV's for whatever game you might want ( not sure what all they can get ) but lots of TVs. read more

I'm going to keep it simple. This place is weak. The two pool tables take your money, and its small and smokey. I didn't even want to try the food read more

I ate here a couple of times. Some of the food doesn't come the way you would like to. I do have a favorite cook there who can make the food to your liking pretty much all the time but he doesn't work past 5pm. The main server will make you wait forever sometimes even when you are ready to order. She doesn't come check on you to see if need refills. You only get refills once because of company policy unless its water. I've just had better service and attention from serving staff in other places. read more
