In addition to our store, we serve scratch-made lunch fare five days a week at our Lunch Counter. Our talented culinary team offers carryout and event catering as well as in-store private events.

Our goal is to showcase the enormous bounty of Virginia, by becoming a stage for local farmers, fishermen, and artisans. Shagbark will also bring the community together around the table…a table with a history but also an enormous amount of beauty. This history provides a base from which everything else in the future is possible. “Stay rooted but branch out." Shagbark is offering curbside 'heat and eat' family style meals for pick up Thursday Friday and Saturday afternoons between 4pm -7pm. We also offer retail priced wines for pickup and will be adding 'togo' cocktails now that ABC has allowed this option. Our weekly menus for the week are posted Tuesday evenings on our website http://www.shagbarkrva.com

We’re a community of runners, hikers, bikers and ballplayers. We’re an outdoor playground, designed by Mother Nature, with class III and IV rapids running right through our downtown. A 52-mile bike trail runs along the James. The Richmond Marathon and Ukrop’s 10k are huge celebrations, and the whole region comes out to cheer on our local teams. In fact, we’re so sports-minded that the Washington Redskins have their training camp right in the center of the city. Add to that awesome hotels, beautiful venues, attractions, art, craft beer, more than 900 restaurants and a convenient location, and you’ve got a top choice for your next sports event. Welcome to RVA!

From indoor to outdoor facilities, the Richmond region has the fields, pitches, diamonds, venues and the dedicated staff to ensure your event is a huge success.
