About:The Village has been a neighborhood favorite for decades. Best-selling novelist and Richmond native, Tom Robbins, used to frequent the joint. The servers are notoriously rude, but that is part of the charm. Their behavior is not so offensive as to prevent guests from having a positive experience. One warning specify a glass or a pitcher for beverages or you will get a pitcher. This is a Village trademark. The food is quite tasty and a good selection of beer and mixed drinks is available. Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Walnuts and Baked Brie with Apples are favorites.

    Pros: casual atmosphere, near VCU campus

    Cons: smoking allowed (has a non-smoking section, but the smoke gets in that section anyways)

    I had a breakfast dish, something like an omlette. It tasted ok---but later that night I got a stomach ache. My friends toldme the lunch/dinner items are better.

    I didn't try, but there are many yummy looking combo flavors of shakes there

    Did you know that, at the Village, they add 20% to the check if you're a group of 4, or more? I like to pick music from the jukebox... smoking allowed. (They have Vegetarian-- falafel, black bean quesadilla, a good veggie burger, etc.)
