Never seen so many beers on draft! U even take the glass home on certain selections. Excellent service.

Went here expecting a lot because of the number of beers on tap. I was kinda disappointed though because basically all the beers on tap were things that I could have picked up at my local beer store. Maybe I went at a bad time.

Have only made the trek out here a few times for events but was pleased. It’s newer and nicer than the other locations and I haven’t had as many instances of "we’re out of that" here (though could just be because don’t go as often). Food, service, etc... all fine. Met the beer buyer here (while out at another beer establishment) and was pleased to find out she is actually a beer geek!

Not wildly impressed to be honest. It started with asking for a sample of the Victory Headwaters on cask, and being given a sample of Starr Hill Cryptical and being told that it was, in fact the pale ale - because pale ale and stout are so easy to mistake. This was then followed by my first two beers chosen not being available. My burger was decent, but the price is out of all proportion with the food on the plate. Service was ok, but no more so than that.

Great little chain with a very good selection of beer

Good spot, especially for the area.

Very knowledgeable staff and wide variety of beers. They change them every so often so new beers are a plenty.

Great beer selection. Poor service, and very expensive. I love the place, and its probably better than the downtown location, but the service often shoddy at best.

Came here for the first time for the 2nd annual Virginia Beer Festival. so most of my time was spent outside though I did get a good look inside. Kinda tough to get to and pretty much in the middle of nowhere, but parking is ample.. if they can accomodate all of us at the festival they can accomodate anyone. The inside is nice with lots of seating (some patio seating as well it looked like). Very large place. Nice long bar with the taps actually on the bar and the big cooler of bottles behind. Fairly typical cap ale setup. Prices are decent. People were all very nice and our waitress was working VERY hard but was nice the whole time anyway. Low marks on the food... not only was it not the regular menu, but, though tasty, two in our party both became ill, one of them being myself. Probably a one time thing, but still very lame. Still a good stop if you’re in the Midlo area.

In the spirit of the other two Capital Ale Houses in Richmond, this place is awesome. It definitely has a different vibe than the Richmond and Innsbrook locations. This has an older crowd and is more set up to be a restaurant, with the exception of the chill area upstairs. Upstairs, they’ve got bar tables and stools, with pool tables set up inside. Highly recommend if you get to Midlothian. The great selection of the other cap ales.
