Awesome little dive bar with a small, but delicious food menu. Their beer selection rivals bars that are twice the size. You won’t be disappointed with this place if you’re in the mood for bbq and beer.

Their beer selection is insanely good, 3 menu pages worth! They had a bunch of TVs so we got to watch some college football while we waited for food. They have a few tables and then a long bar. There is a pool table in the back. I didn’t look around too much. We ate the classic BLT and BBQ tacos which were both really good. The beer was delicious as well, they serve a lot of beer from micro breweries which I like since I lived in San Diego for so many years and got used to Ballast Point, Stone Brewery, and Green Flash. The one bartender was the only one there it sounded like the rest of the staff was at a catering event so it was pretty low-key. The bartender was very efficient and pretty friendly for how busy he was. It was a divey and intimate environment and a good place to go and relax.

Incredibly intimate and divey. I really like this place for a drink kind of get together.

The service was slow, and not the usual type of joint I spend time in. But, I did like the large selection of drinks and the food was actually really good. It was s busy time of day, so I will have to return and give them another chance when they are not so crowded.

Okay… haven’t posted a review in a while. Maybe having to work out of Va Beach and leaving my home city of Jacksonville Fl, has had me depressed. But I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Lynn Haven Pub. First, phenomenal selection of fairly in expensive drafts from everywhere. San Dog included. Bottles even better. And the food is on point. On site crafted sauces, great smoked food, great staff makes this a true hidden gem. Go here. It won’t disappoint!

Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. I kid you not I almost turned around and drove somewhere else but I’m glad I didn’t! The beer selection is insane. If you’re not some beer connoisseur then just ask the bartender to pick you something you might like. I didn’t catch his name but he is wonderful. The food is not bar fly food. It is delicious and super filling. We will be back for sure. Love this spot! And pool tables!!!

I give it 2 ½ stars. Drove to Va Beach from DC to help a friend move. I scouted food spots and beer bars like i always do and found this place on Unilocal w/21 reviews and 4 ½ stars. It looked like a real find, a dive bar w/craft beers and good BBQ. My kinda place. I know this is a just a neighborhood dive w/good craft beer and probably not much is expected from food service, but when i read rave reviews, i guess i expect great bar food. We ordered a couple drafts, a brisket sandwich and a pulled pork sandwich. Really quick service at the bar considering the packed after– work crowd. The guy behind the bar was working overtime. We got our food in less then 10m and after a day of moving furniture, we were really looking forward to this. The pork was tender enuff, but lacked any real seasoning. The brisket was the opposite, cut thick, it was tough, chewy and fatty. All i can say is, i’ve eaten lots of BBQ including pork and brisket and this was a complete disappointment. We did not get the same brisket that had the rave reviews. I wish i could report something different, but i have to say the bar service was great. I wiil be back when i visit my friend, but probably only have a draft.

The service may I say, impeccable! There was this wonderful bearded bartender named Stew! He was an ace behind the bar. Once I walked in, the long established regulars made me feel right at home. No one talked about dick butter or smegma at all!

I love this hole in the wall. First came here with a few of my coworkers and was surprised to see the beer selection. Nice outdoor spot for warmer days, pool table in the back, and just a cool place to just hang out at. This place beats all the crowded, pretentious bars.

I stopped by the other evening after reading the reviews. Decent size bar locals bar. I was surprised since the outside is deceiving. There were about 3 other females in the entire place but that was fine. Everyone there was nice. They have a great beer selection, and most sure in bottles. I believe they had a handful of beers on tap. Prices were not bad at all. I was a bit surprised that the bartender made the food behind the bar. It didn’t eat, but the sandwiches and wraps looked and smelled good. I’ll definitely be back.

Had a really good lunch here a couple of Sundays ago. I stopped in with a co-worker and the main bar was packed from front to back for the game. We ordered a couple of beers and seated ourselves at the very last table before the back door and commenced to watch the game. It turns out the bartender was by himself as everyone else was at the Green Flash brewery event. We eventually managed to score some menus and ended up ordering the Pub Club. It took a while to get our sandwiches, again Kudo’s to the bartender because he was busting his butt, and really enjoyed them. The clubs were cut in half, not quarters and came with chips on the side. They definitely hit the spot. I’m gonna have to get back in here again soon.

Just had a grenade filled(½ growler). Worst fill I have ever had only ¾ full for $ 10. Also small selection of drafts. Real Hop Heads should avoid.

Lynnhaven Pub is an oasis in a desert of crappy Virginia Beach Bars. These guys are the only ones who are truly passionate about bringing high-quality microbrews to VB pub-goers. These guys GETIT. They have the BEST variety of microbrews in Virginia Beach because they have beer from all over the U.S. If these guys can acquire these beers, then others should do the same. The atmosphere is nothing fancy, but that’s OK. Even the bathrooms are less than desirable, but who cares when you can get such amazing beer on tap or in bottles. Kuddos to the staff and the owners for not settling for the status quo.

All I can say is WOW! I had to stop by this place and see what all the hype was about after hearing about all the different craft beers they had here. It’s a little off the beaten path in a small commercial area. I walked in and was greeted by the bartender(I feel bad for forgetting his name) he was extremely knowledgeable about the beer they have and about any other beer questions you had. Their menu consisted of 90+ bottles of different beers, WAY Awesomeness! I enjoy coming to smaller places like this, it’s what makes the experience as a whole so unique. I ended up grabbing a seat at the bar and ordered the Founders Breakfast Stout and man it was soo freaking good. However after looking at their menu I did notice that some of the beers on their list I’ve seen at «Total Wine» for half the price. Not to distract from any business just be mindful that it’s possible to sample that beer you want at a cheaper price. But then again there are several other beers I’ve never seen or heard of so it’s a win-win for this place either way. I didn’t try any of their food but can’t wait to do so when I return. **Again very interesting place, all I can say is WOW as I was completely blown away! Cheers!

In the category of «Virginia Beach Dive Bars» the Gold goes to Lynnhaven Pub. For those newer to Unilocal there is indeed a specific category for«Dive Bars» and it’s not easy to have Unilocal bestow this on your business. I would go so far as to call this a «Dude Dive Bar» Or is there more than what meets the eye at this small bar. So what makes this place such a dive? Is it the fact they literally are a hole in the wall, pretty much a bar, few tables inside that’s it. The restrooms are so small there is no room for a sink and for that matter no TP in the Mens room. I guess the women are just lucky to have one and hopefully for them they have TP. Layers of paint hide most of the graffiti… DARN! Hands are washed behind the bar. Maybe it’s the fact half of the customers were sporting awesome looking ink, proudly displaying in a tank top. The filthy foul language could win a few of these dudes an Oscar winning performance in the category of best MOTHERFU**IN dive bar dialect. So what else ya got !!! Well how about a signed publicity photo of no other than Ron Jeremy America’s favorite porn star. YEP, they have it prominently hung behind the bar. I did find one woman brave enough to belly to the bar with a room full of loud foul mouthed jaber jawin Men. She was with her BF and is a regular per the bartender. I sat beside them and looked over the lunch menu. They recommended the pastrami, or brisket knowing it was my first time. There was a single employee … YES a dude! He was so busy he could not even acknowledge me for a bit. As a matter of fact I had to ask for a seat at the bar from a few guys standing up. I quickly decided on the brisket and a local Beach Brewing Saigon from the tap. It does not take long to figure out this is a regulars hang out. The brew was fantastic! I’m talking one of the best tasting beers I have ever had. Upon discussing selection in bottle and tap I learned from the bartender they switch out taps ever two days and bottles of IPA and Crafts every two weeks. This is not the place you should order a Bud Light, NOWAY! They have a methodology, a goal if you will to educate their customers on the beers they serve. So hold on one MF second here… EDUCATION!(insert Scooby voice… hu) Maybe they are more than a dive for dudes, I mean Women and Men alike enjoy some suds while getting educated at the bar admiring Ron Jeremy. Let’s wrap this up… Brisket was huge and incredible melt in your mouth deliciousness. It came w/a side of chips and fresh pickle. My beer washed it down nicely. Even the woman setting beside me was impressed I polished the GD thing off and the pint was soon after. Service was friendly, not over the top. The guy was totally slammed by himself, so I get it. For those interested in shooting pool, they have a table very masculine red felt. Juke Box for tunes, but I heard no music on this visit. Also an overflow beer garden in back that is quite spacious. I can see this being a rowdy SOB on weekend evenings. Beer education in a dive bar setting with awesome food who would have thug it. This has to be a place I embrace. Note to Unilocal HQ, it really is a dive bar.

I almost don’t want to post a review because I want to keep this place hidden; but with the way Rob, Tim, Mike, Jeff & co have been doing things this place will only continue to blossom. My absolute favorite place for a beer & by beer I mean prime selection of craft beer with prices you can’t beat. Don’t be fooled either, they can whip up delicious dishes from the kitchen. Love this place. Beer, food, jukebox, pool table, & outdoor patio. What more do you need?

For a little hole in the wall this bar is fun and cozy. Now it is a little cramped and small inside, but don’t be discouraged Unilocalers because… They have one of the best beer selections I have seen in that area!! Not to mention that they are well priced. And by beer I mean craft beer. Not bud light, but they do have that if you like cheap beer. Usually the bar staff are cooking up rum ham(glorious), or some other delicious bar food for you to munch on, while you gulp down bubbly beer. They also have a pool table in the back if that’s your thing, and a jukebox close by. In the summer the back patio opens up because its gets extremely packed inside. I like it in the winter… Less people… more beer for me.

Overall impressions of LP… Staff– Friendly, attentive Bev Selection– Diverse beer cooler Location– Below average Overall– Average dive bar, great for locals, not worth travel If in the area, I’d grab a beer, because of the selection… I suggest giving LP a try if you’re passing by…

Cool bartenders & always an awesome selection of brew to choose from. Reminds me of a place that would be in Ghent. Love riding my bike up for some beers after work!
