    I enjoyed the tasting cellar much more than the vibe upstairs at Charley's. The folks working were…read morekind and welcoming, and they answered some questions I had ahead of ordering a wine flight. Since I was planning to share with my mom, I went for the sweet wine flight despite personally preferring semi-dry wines more. I think that was my mistake, as my mom ended up not wanting to drink much, and the sweet wines are SWEET. Like syrupy-sweet. Not just like a nice moscato-sweet. It was like drinking straight sugar. And the price was steep at $37 after tip. We sat on their patio, which is underneath Charley's patio, and were treated to serene river views. A local artist played some music too. Cool vibe, I just ordered the wrong thing.

    When we arrived the staff was unwelcoming and rude. We had a larger group and were told we couldn't…read moremove chairs together so we spread out. One of the waitresses said "so are we just scattering now?". You won't let us all sit together so yes? It was unnecessary and rude. The waitress told us $14 dollars for a wine flight then when the bill came it was $39. They told us that price was never told to us (it was and multiple customers at the winery were told a lower price as well). The wine was also not good. The service was horrible, our party felt treated poorly and they were rude from the jump. I do not recommend this place the staff is rude, the wine is not good, and they don't tell you correct prices!

    This museum is a school, which played a part in Brown vs Board of Education, the landmark Supreme…read moreCourt case. It is only a few hours' drive from the Supreme Court, but it is a world away. I had some apprehensions given the museum's funding sources included some corporate donors, but whatever process went into it, the final result appeared to me to be quality curation. What sets the museum apart its is specificity and reliance on primary sources. There are plenty of generic civil rights museums, but this one gives a clear impression of time and place. The primary source documentation sets forth some ugly sentiments; anyone who thinks that Virginia is not the Deep South is likely in for a rude awakening, but it also illuminates a variety of perspectives that don't mesh well with contemporary social commentary. The students here, many of whom were alive long enough to make it into the introductory movie, set forth a vision of egalitarianism and devotion to excellence. One of them compares the planning of the civil disobedience here to the Manhattan Project in its secrecy and single-minded commitment, a striking analogy. It is not a huge place (indeed, the fact that the school was too small for the student body is kind of the point), but I spent easily over an hour perusing the content even without a tour or special event. There is no charge to enter and the gift shop was not running when I dropped in, but a donation bin was open and I was more than happy to leave something.

    Honestly a hidden gem. Gorgeous sitting on the patio at night you can hear the river and there was…read morelive music too. The date night special was a huge bang for your buck!! Steak was delicious and the crab dip was our favorite appetizer!

    It was my first time visiting Farmville, and I wanted to check out a local restaurant for dinner. I…read moredid notice that Charley's had varied reviews but the more recent ones seemed positive, so we gave it a go for dinner. It was a nice day, so we asked to sit outside. As a party of two, they don't allow you to sit waterside, because, as I heard the host tell most every party that arrived after us as well, those tables are reserved for larger groups. So, keep that in mind if you're looking for waterside dining. We were seated next to the door, and I didn't notice until halfway through the meal that my chair was covered in cobwebs. Kind of gross. The floor to the exterior patio was also very dirty. My mom was stomping away at ants. I'd recommend they consider cleaning more outside, especially considering it's the main allure of the restaurant. After being seated, our server greeted us. She was overall friendly albeit a bit slow, and when I asked which Riesling was sweeter (they had two), she didn't know. She asked a manager, who replied that he can't drink on shift. It was a polarity compared to the service the table next to us later received from the bartender, who provided samples to them and was on top of things for them the entire meal. I was mildly jealous, honestly. Without the option to sample, I selected a Riesling at random (the German one), and it was fortunately very good. I also heard the sparkling Moscato was pleasant. We ordered the jumbo pretzel to start, which came with a tasty cheese mixture. I would say that's where the good part ended for me. My mom didn't want our salads to arrive with the pretzel, so she asked for them to be spaced out, but then it took aaaaages for the salads to come out. The cheese on the ceasar was good, but that's about it. I couldn't taste any dressing, so I left most of it behind. I was torn in between the mahi and red snapper entrees, but ultimately chose the red snapper despite the server calling it fishy. I asked for extra sauce when I ordered it, but it came with regular sauce, so I asked again. It took some time to arrive as the kitchen had to heat it up, but when it did arrive, it was a TINY amount. I was so perplexed. The fish itself was not that great. It didn't taste fresh to me. My mom ordered the ribs, as they were explained to be really good and "fall off the bone." Can attest they were not. They were actually very fatty. They never should've left the kitchen. I relayed this feedback to our server, and she took both of our meals off the bill since we didn't eat them. I was shocked but thought that was very kind of her. I'd say this spot needs some more quality control between food and cleanliness. I'm unlikely to return personally, but it's worth a shot if you're in town and interested in waterfront dining or a nice glass of wine, I suppose.
