I had the pleasure of visiting Awful Arthur's recently to find a functioning microbrewery in this seafood. They have six consistant brews with one or two seasonal. My personal favorite was the Winter Warmer, a porter boasting a 7+% alcohol content that you just don't taste over the smooth flavor. Better still was the prices which ranged from 2.38 to 2.73 a pint. Truly a great deal for some delicious brew.

Their crab dip alone makes up for having the most convoluted Happy Hour Special in existence.

Awesome view sitting on the Lynnhaven River. Great fried oysters and shrimp.

Bring a few bucks to tip the valet.

Also known as Chixs Oyster Bar.

Offshore Bar & Grill offers great food, cold drinks, and great live music.

View overlooking the ocean and the 7th street stage with superb sushi, seafood, and stiff drinks. (psst. That was alliteration )

The block is hot. Need we say more? Crazy Charlie's is a year round locals' favorite by playing good music and pouring strong drinks. Go get some.
