Famous for breakfast, this Diner is no frills and all delicious platters of breakfast staples with a (often spicy) twist. They don't take reservations, but they do have a patio where you can enjoy a drink while you wait for a table.

Sightseeing

This is a lovely park with the best view of the city. In fact, legend has it that this is the view that names the city because it reminded settlers of the view of Richmond on Thames, in England.

I can't keep track of the numerous breweries, restaurants, and arcade bars popping up in Scott's additions, but I can guarantee you will find several that will give you a fun time! My personal favorites are Circuit, Ardent Ales, and Brambly Park. The best part? They're all walking distance to each other so it's easy to hop around, and they're only 10 minutes away!

RVA Outdoors

Belle Isle is James River central. This park has walking trails, mountain biking trails, and even rock climbing walls. On warmer days, you can lay out on the rocks and watch paddlers go by on the rapids, and take a dip in the river yourself when you need to cool off!
