The Continental Westhampton is the perfect place to go for a drink, or bring your family. Roomy booths, delicious American menu and great ambiance, its our favorite in Richmond. The whole street is great for walking, and for dessert- Boyers one block down is amazing.

Parks & Nature

Lewis Ginter is great for enjoying a morning stroll. Its perfect for families (splash pad) or enjoying a quiet morning. There is also a butterfly exhibit. It does cost money to get it, but we love going there.
