Capital Ale House - Restaurant in Richmond - 623 E Main St, USA

Love capital ale house. However, this experience was not good. Ordered nachos that did not have much of any toppings. 10% nacho, 90% chips. Daughters Mac and cheese was room temp but the wife liked her Cuban. 5/10 won't be visiting this location again.

They were good enough that we went twice while in town. I didn’t take photos of the second visit, but the fish tacos ranked higher than the chicken I had the night prior. The fries and dips were yummy for the app. They do use shared fryer so celiacs beware. They have a dress code, but didn’t kick us out. There’s gluten free beer here and ciders. Definitely sign up for the rewards program if you come more than once.

This was my first time eating at this establishment. I chose the dessert pretzel for dinner, lol ! The price was reasonable. The flavor was incredible! The pretzel was soft and very delicious. The additional cup of half caramel and half chocolate sauce was so tasty, too.

We booked their Game Room for an engagement party. I cannot tell you how pleased I am with the decision. Clean and spacious for our 50 guests. The large side patio was a plus. Hard working employees. Very good food. Generous portions. An excellent value overall. This is one place to strongly consider when looking for venues to host an event.

Visited this fine establishment to satisfy our late night munchies after hitting some breweries pretty hard first day in town. It came recommended from a friend and did not disappoint. I don't recall our bartenders name but we could tell he was well experienced. Just the perfect amount of conversation and kept our cold, fermented beverages coming. The dry rub wings were as good as I've had anywhere. Would definitely return my next trip to RVA.

I have to start by saying I thought this review would be going ina different direction give on our initial impression when we arrives. We arrived between 2-3 and the place wasn't busy. We were a party of 7 but got seated immediately which was a nice surprise. After that we were left for 20 minutes without any type of acknowledgement. The sevrer who seemed to be working our area was happily serving smaller groups that had arrived after us but couldn't be bothered to stop by our table. We were thinking of leaving but we decided to talk to the hostess who apologized and said someone would be right over. A server from another section came over took our drink and food orders and apologized for having to wait so long. Our experience ou got better from there. We ordered the pretzel appetizer with fruit cheese and sausage and it was absolutely amazing! I could have happily made that my meal. Fried pickles were light and crispy and quite delicious. Sis and I also shared the Irish coddle which while not the prettiest of dishes was freaking delicious. Brother in law was happy with his corned beef sandwich. Our sever was wonderful and attentive and totally turned our experience around. If they can get more servers like him along with their amazing food would totally be a 5 star place to eat at.

Fabulous meal here tonight. Laid back vibe, easy to spend lots of time with friends. There are some Polish selections on the menu and I had to try the pierogi. They did not disappoint. There is a music venue next door and this is the perfect spot for before or after the show snacks.

For some reason I didn't get the advertised happy hour prices and didn't realize it until I left and was adding up what I had. Some of the beers are way over priced for single pours so the 64oz options are WAY WAY better. Can't go wrong with the pretzel.
