Union Ale House - Virginia Beach, VA

Union Alehouse in Virginia Beach

Traditional American cuisine with a restless imagination

Familiar plates get a sharper point of view here, where comfort food makes room for playful ideas. Union Alehouse lets the Elote Burger share a table with fried deviled eggs and poutine, while rotating craft beer, handcrafted cocktails, and lighter choices keep each visit open-ended. That point of view earned early recognition as Southside Gold for Best New Restaurant in Coastal Virginia Magazine’s 2019 Best Of Readers’ Choice Awards. Warm service and a relaxed, come-as-you-are spirit keep it grounded. Weekly specials and live music add movement to the schedule without changing the easygoing pace. It is the kind of place where a quick stop has a habit of becoming the plan.

American Catering, & Then Some

Virginia Beach events, ready for company

Office lunches, weddings, and family reunions deserve more than a one-note spread. Build yours around hand-rolled traditional lumpia, applewood bacon-wrapped shrimp, cognac shrimp penne, and truffle mac and cheese, or choose a Backyard Picnic, Caribbean Island Party, or Italian Fare package to set the course. Bring us your plans, and we'll help map out the meal.

When the Guest List Grows

The Back Room keeps it personal

Step out of the usual flow and give the occasion a setting of its own. Available for larger groups seeking more privacy, this dedicated area suits birthday dinners, engagement parties, and retirement sendoffs, with a little separation and none of the disconnect. Submit an inquiry, choose your date, and make it yours.
