We've visited the Winchester location numerous times so I wanted to check this one out. There's a few things different in the menu. The nachos got were huge and could feed 3-4 people. The atmosphere is nice. It's helpful they have outdoor seating too. The waiting staff were very good in keeping tabs on us.

Hip, fun, beer spot that sells AMAZING chicken wings!! On our way to Rileyville, we visited Vibrissa for a quick beer & appetizer and was quite surprised how good their food was. Came with a dog & a kid, so seated outside. Thought the place was spacious and cute. Service was great, fast, attentive. Ordered a variety of food and everything tasted amazing, may I say, even better than some spots in DC. Beer was alright, not the best not the worst but they were fine enough to drink, and did its job! We'll certainly be coming back if we're in the area. It was such a fun pit stop!

This is a great little spot in the heart of downtown Front Royal. The brewery has plenty of seating inside at the bar, tables, and booths along with plenty of outdoor seating. They also have a really big menu and full kitchen! We got the wings and they were amazing. Crispy, no breading, and plenty of sauce on them. As a wing enthusiast, these were top tier and large wings. It seems like they might bake them and then flash fry to get them crispy. Well done! The backs were just okay. They cheese sauce was a bit bland and they left a lot to be desired. The main issue was the backhoes weren't layered with toppings so once the top layer was eaten, we were left with just plain tortilla chips. The staff was extremely friendly and the beer selection was fantastic. Their hazy IPA "Floof" was very refreshing.

Short ribs, Mac n cheese; in the back is The Virginian.

We needed a local 'pet-friendly' restaurant. Found this place: good food, very friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, near to the center of town. Fro-Ro has done a good job of recapturing the small-town ambiance missing from so many communities. The staff were engaging and accommodating (we had three children under 3 with us, plus a pup) and we were afforded comfortable seating outside under heaters. Definitely a return trip for dessert next time in town

We shared the Chesapeake Fries, crispy tofu bites, veggie potstickers and the roasted beet/goat cheese salad: all delicious. The Crushin' on Whiskey cocktail and the Pucker Punch beer were great compliments. Waitstaff were attentive and friendly.

Pimento Smash burger
Jack R.

I had the pimento smash burger on sourdough with a side of fries. Service was excellent! The tallow fries tasted great but could have been a little crispier.

Great place, loved the beer selection. Looked like a great cocktail selection, though we did not partake. Service was perfect, everyone took care of us and was very nice. Special thanks to Abigail R, our server. Wife had a Reuben and onion ring, said it was great, she shared a ring, I agree. I had the Korean meatloaf, broccoli and mashed potatoes, so good, a little extra Korean flavor, phenomenal! We sat outside on a perfect night, loved the overall feel of this place. Are traveling, so can't say I will get there again, but highly recommend

Pork bellies
Jennifer S.

Omgosh! Is the first thing I can say about this place! I was VERY hesitant but.im so glad we decided to visit. Hubby got pork bellies, he LOVED THEM! I got the collard green melt with pepper jack cheese and it was probably the BEST SANDWICH I HAVE EVER HAD! Hubby had Bacon Me Crazy burger and we both said best meal we have ever had! Michelle was an awesome server. Very attentive, friendly and personable...I wish I lived here, I would visit often. If I'm ever back here, I will definitely visit. Amazing ...

Buglogi beef
Carolyn W.

We stopped in on our road trip on the suggestion of a local when the BBQ restaurant we targeted was closed. Vibrissa is located on the quaint Main Street with convenient public parking around the back. If you enter the front, walk through to the host station. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside in the evening of a 90+ degree day. It was super pleasant. All the staff was cheery and pleasant. We got the pork belly sliders, jalapenos (cheesy and stuffed with crab), and fried pickles. All were delicious. Don't miss the beers! The stout was smooth and creamy: a real winner. The Pilsner was light and delicious with no aftertaste. My husband recommends the IPA (twice!). For dinner we got the ramen (not traditional Japanese, but delicious nonetheless. Good noodles), buglogi style beef (generous and good flavor), cheese steak sandwich (not just good, really good). I got the Greek salad and added fried tofu (I know, not a traditional choice, but o recommend: crispy and creamy), and kids Mack. The salad has tons of delicious olives, pickled onions....so good! I would definitely go again and again!

Good food, nice atmosphere and great service! Came on Juneteenth holiday and enjoyed a relaxed meal with the family. We ordered nachos and pretzel for appetizers and the reuben, grilled cheese, chicken burger and cheeseburger for our meals. The food was good, the service was GREAT, and overall we'd come back again. I wish the onion rings had a better batter and crunch- the batter wasn't as flavorful as I'd hoped. The grilled cheese was ok but the caramelized onions weren't my favorite - the sweet onions and salty cheese wasn't my thing. Nachos and pretzel were yummy!

Ask the Community - Vibrissa Beer

Is smoking alowed on outside patio?

No it is not. But a few steps away is ok.

Do you have an outside patio area and do you allow dogs?

Yes we do. Because of the small area, we allow only a few dogs in the outside beer garden. It is always at the discretion of the manager on duty.

Owner/Chef Dane stopped by our table at the end of meal and was so delightful to talk with.

Tangy sundried tomatoes cut the richness and was actually tender. I enjoyed the better as leftovers and I don't know why. Mashed potatoes creamy, buttery delicious. I don't like spinach so I got it with a side of green beans. -Green beans: good but cooked and seasoned unevenly. I still liked it -Grilled mahi tacos: I enjoyed this the most. The taco shell isn't a taco shell, more like a flatbread or naan toasted. It has a variety of textures and flavors - pumpkin seeds, jalapeño slaw, avocado sauce, and pico. It's bright and punchy and delicious. Comes w fries -Sweet potato fries: so yum. Crispy outside fluffy inside Cheese pizza: a lot of cheese- a little too much for me. The restaurant itself is lake themed with beautiful wood paneling, floor to ceiling windows, centered around a cozy fire place. I made a comment that it'd be perfect for baby/ bridal showers and my friend said people actually have weddings here. The interior is matched by an even more beautiful view. They offer outdoor waterside seating on their deck. It looks to be screened in/ have windows so you're not exposed to the weather. Service was great/ attentive.

The inn was festively decorated and exuberanted a warmth that was just so welcoming. The staff at the desk was mere incredibly kind. We were taken to our seats and Alejandro our waiter was fabulous the whole night. In fact I can't say enough great things about their staff overall. Catalina definitely made our evening enjoyable while introducing our food and taking our plates. Again everyone did such a fabulous job taking care of us. The FOOD was AMAZING! We ordered the traditional 5 course and each dish was just another challenge to the palate. The balance of flavors and tones. The creative plating. The play on traditional flavors with modern twist. I didn't want the surprise of each dish to stop. We were lucky and during our meal had Chef Patrick O'Connell check on us. We finished the night with a special tour of the kitchen. The highlight-- learning that they have a water sommelier! We didn't order anything but hearing him speak of the different kinds of water We will definitely be back to celebrate large and special milestones. Absolutely worth trying once in a lifetime.

The Inn at Little Washington lost its third Michelin star in the 2025. The timing coincided with…read moreVirginia's state tourism office declining to pay a reported ~$360,000 fee to expand Michelin coverage into more of the state. Others see it as part of a wider "reset" affecting other longtime three-star spots like Alinea (Chicago) and Masa (New York), which also dropped to two stars at the same time. I'm not completely sure why the slight decline but here's my honest view. The scenic drive from DC through the Virginia countryside sounds breathtaking--rolling hills, charming small towns, glimpses of Blue Ridge Mountains but in actuality all of the turns and hills made myself and friend sick. We had to pull over and gather ourselves. The restaurant itself is gorgeous, filled with artwork, pink, green and gold monkey wallpaper and Victorian tables, and English country style. It's maximalist--opulent without being stuffy. Our waitstaff made the evening extra special for my birthday. They constantly wished me a happy birthday, asked thoughtful questions about my life, shared jokes, and engaged in small talk that felt genuine and personal. Not to mention the menu with my name. Each course on the 7-course tasting menu was beautifully presented. We loved having three menu options to choose from: a new seasonal tasting (always fresh and surprising), Enduring Classics (with signature dishes like the iconic lobster preparations or herb-crusted favorites), and a full vegetarian Good Earth menu with the eggplant course being our favorite. The unlimited warm bread service with fresh butter and flaky sea salt was a simple but perfect touch. The Champagne options were endless (their wine list is legendary, with a massive cellar and expert sommeliers), and they even offered a dedicated book/menu highlighting rare waters from around the world--everything from iceberg sources to unique mineral springs. I've never seen a water book before. Standouts for me was the caviar egg, lamb main course and tomato amuse-bouche. If you're looking for a special occasion spot (birthday, anniversary, or just because), this is it. Four people will run you around $2500 including drinks. Con- I would work on the cocktail menu (the Diana tasted like cough medicine). Bring back the pear dessert and portion sizes from 12 years ago. My main lamb portion was embarrassing. Reviewers see pictures for example sizes. Please offer a dedicated pescatarian menu. Overall, Chef Patrick O'Connell and his team did a great job.

Head Chef Aaron curated a beautiful five-course menu for us in advance, and every single course was exceptional. The flavors were perfectly balanced, creative, and comforting all at once -- each dish flowed seamlessly into the next and left us genuinely impressed. It was one of those meals where you pause, smile, and truly savor every bite. Pastry Chef Ebony not only created a custom anniversary cake for us -- which was absolutely delicious -- but she was also our server for the evening. Her attentiveness, warmth, and genuine care made our night feel even more special. She anticipated every need and added such a personal touch to the entire experience.

Sous Chef Diego and the entire team contributed to an atmosphere that felt warm, intimate, and welcoming. The ambiance was beautiful and private, and the complimentary sparkling wine was the perfect way to celebrate such an important milestone. This was our first anniversary -- the beginning of many more to come -- and Blue Rock made sure it was unforgettable. Every detail, every flavor, and every gesture reflected genuine care.
