Hours: Mon-Sun 11:00 am - 2:00 am
Welcome to The Public House - Ghent's first "gastropub." GastroPub - It's just a fancy word that people invented to describe places that put a creative spin on traditional pub food - and charge you eight bucks for fries. We put a lot of work into creating those spins, though, like making nearly everything in-house and using as many locally or regionally produced products as possible. We hope you enjoy. http://www.publichouseeats.com/
Raise a glass to Virginia Craft Beers all month long at The Public House! We have turned our front bar into a Virginia Craft Beer Mecca, featuring Alewerks Brewing Company, O'Connor Brewing Co., Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery, Hardywood Park Craft Brewery, Smartmouth Beer, Legend Brewing Company, Starr Hill Brewery, Bold Rock Cidery, Devils Backbone Brewing Company, Reaver Beach Brewing Co., Old Bust Head Brewing Company, Center of the Universe Brewing, Blue Mountain Brewery, and Young Veterans Brewing Company!
