They have exterior seating but the day we went it was a bit too cold for that. Now let's talk about the liquor. This should be the star of the show. The issue is two fold. The bourbons, there main spirit, is not refined enough to support the hefty per bottle price tag. Stick with the cocktail flight. All the cocktails were excellent and well made. Great if you want to visit and sit around with a drink and friends. If you're going to buy bourbon or you're a bourbon connoisseur then your time is probably better spent other places.

The owners, Kim, Mark and partner, Mike were amazing. Hospitality was genuine. I'm not a straight hard liquor girl but Kim has a few mixers, still I was hesitant but everything was delicious. The vodka and ginger ale was amazing and the spiced rum with ginger ale tasted like orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream (seriously). They even make a spiked iced tea in plastic bottles, so it's beach ready. They went from making only vodka in 2016 to having award winning spirits in 2021! That is incredible when you think about it. When you go there ask how they got started and about their first bottle they sold, ahhhhhmazing. I love this place and I love the owners!

I have visited Chesapeake Bay Distillery located in Virginia Beach, Va twice now. Each time I have…read morevisited I have had a pleasant experience. They are only open Friday 4-7, then Saturday and Sunday from noon to 7. So be mindful of that before driving all the way down to the beach. I wish they were open during the weekday, would be nice little after work hangout spot to catch a flight or two. The flights are $8 each and you get to choose 4 options. You can't beat that. I usually get two flights making my total $16 and I leave with a nice buzz. The customer service is really good. Our bartender carried on a conversation with us and kept us entertained. She's engaged and I'd like to wish her a happy wedding day. Over all I will continue to visit this spot, when open b/c I love how low key it is. Please note major construction going on currently around the distillery so may have to take a detour to get to them.

I arrived around 6:30pm in hopes I could still order a flight, since they close at 7pm. Thankfully, they weren't in a rush to close at all. In fact, almost 10 people came in after me. The lady working there was pretty nice and personable and the place was very clean. The flight includes 9 different flavors and you are able to choose 4 flavors for the tasting. My friend and I ordered our flights and enjoyed our tastings. Some we enjoyed more than others but it was still a good time and the drinks were very strong. My favorite was the Watermelon Ghost Margarita, which was made with fresh, watermelon juice and tequila with smoked ghost pepper. While at the Distillery, you can purchase bottles to take home or simply order a cocktail to enjoy. If you're near the Oceanfront, grab some friends and definitely stop in.

We came here with some friends and enjoyed the history plus being part of the first ones on tasting the 1st batch of in house bourbon. Very friendly and professional staff and easy going.

Great store with some great options. Def coming back. Great atmosphere alot locals but also people from all over. Thank you guys!

We came here because they are affiliated with Harvest Host and we reserved to stay overnight in our RV. We were treated so nicely. We will definitely return in our future travels through this area.

My friend was not drinking and they were very accommodating making her a berry smash with no alcohol. It was so good! I started with an espresso martini. It was literally the best espresso martini I've ever had in my life! I knew something was different then I realized they make their own coffee liquor! I could have drank the espresso martinis all night long but de used to switch it up and got the dirt cosmo next. Again, very good! My last drink was a special request, cucumber and gin martini. This is a family owned business and you can tell they take pride in the product and the experience. Highly recommend Cape Charles Distillery is on your list of places to visit in Cape Charles.

I saw the event advertised on social media and knew I had to check it out. It's gourmet specialty hot dogs paired with a wide selection of martinis, from classics like lemon drops and cosmos to more unique options like the pickletinis and caprese tinis. I went with a couple of friends around 5:45 and it was packed, but luckily people were leaving as we arrived so we were able to grab a spot. It was a little too chilly to sit outside, but they do have additional seating and I'd definitely sit out there when it's warmer. The food was great. I got the kimchi hot dog and loved it. The brioche bun really stood out, and the chili truffle oil fries were amazing. Everything comes out on a cute little tray, which was a nice touch. For my drink, I tried the pickletini. It was good, but definitely strong, especially if you're new to martinis. One friend got the caprese-tini, which was surprisingly good and came with a caprese skewer, so you get a little snack with it. My other friend got a dirty martini, which she enjoyed, and even as someone who isn't big on olives, I thought it was pretty good. Overall, we all had a great time and will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

She really enjoyed the rum here. While the drinks are fine, if a bit pricy, the service is lacking. The two girls that work here do not have the maturity or customer service skills to make it worth coming back for me. Are college-age girls the only available human capital available during the summer months here? I sat at a table which is supposed to be waited on. After letting the girl know I wasn't ready, I asked for some water which I never got. I sat for 10 minutes being ignored. I finally went to the bar to order and was helped immediately (the place was only half full - not that busy for two people). Not a good experience. At $14 a pop for a craft cocktail, I expect better interpersonal skills from a bartender. Why do employers think that the personality trait of 'nice' translates to a better employee?

We entered into a lovely, vast, and welcoming space with a good sized bar and plenty of tables for customers and gatherings. I had two of the house cocktails. First of which was an old-fashioned.

I hadn't been to a distillery in such a long time. Next time! I didn't venture out to the outdoor patio area, but, as my partner and I left, a large group headed straight for the patio. Such a perfect addition to the OBX area.
