A MESSAGE ABOUT COVID-19
First and foremost, the Virginia Beach Restaurant Association is committed to helping our community through these hard times – past events have taught us exactly how strong and resilient our city is. Our goal is to be good stewards for our industry and we strongly urge all restaurants to adhere to Governor Northam’s new guidelines. By following these guidelines, all of our businesses can recover and get back to normal operations as quickly and safely as possible. We ask that the public recognize that each and every day is an unfolding situation and that changes are being made rapidly by the government and by businesses. Our VB restaurants are currently making unbelievably tough decisions regarding their employees and their operations – none of us take this lightly and we do it with extremely heavy hearts. We will heavily rely on take out, delivery and gift certificates, so please consider those options while making your meal decisions.
Many of our restaurants are now able to offer outdoor dining. Visit our Member Restaurants page for a listing of our restaurants and adjusted business models.
Virginia Beach Has Taken The Pledge
