WILLIAMSBURG — Voodoo Brewing Co. is set to open its new brewpub location on August 30, marking a significant expansion of the franchise into Virginia. This Williamsburg location will be the second Voodoo Brewing Co. site in the state, following their successful operations elsewhere.
The brewpub is well-known for its extensive selection of craft beers, food offerings, craft cocktails, and hard seltzers, catering to a wide range of tastes. The establishment will be situated at Midtown Row and will sport a custom logo that reflects the unique character of Williamsburg, enhancing the local vibe.
Michael Davis, the leader behind the Williamsburg location, has a background as a former transportation company owner. He has always aspired to operate a pub, and with this new venture, he aims to create a warm, community-oriented space for both students and local residents. The menu will be specifically tailored to local preferences, featuring items that resonate with the tastes of the area.
In addition to food and drink, the Williamsburg Voodoo Brewing Co. intends to be a focal point for community engagement by hosting a variety of events, including local music nights, trivia competitions, and karaoke sessions once fully operational. This initiative is part of Davis’s vision to integrate the brewpub into the fabric of the community.
Davis has taken a hands-on approach to the development of the space, personally overseeing the construction and even building tables himself. The decor features galvanized roof panels, adding a distinct touch to the interior design. His family, including his wife, daughter, and daughter-in-law, also played integral roles in creating the artistic elements of the brewpub, contributing to the establishment’s unique atmosphere.
Guests can expect a diverse drink selection that includes not just craft beers but also craft cocktails and wine, appealing to many preferences. The kitchen will offer a full menu of elevated pub fare, ranging from pizzas and wings to hamburgers, in addition to locally inspired dishes that reflect regional culinary traditions.
The grand opening event on August 30 will begin at noon, allowing people of all ages to attend and experience the new venue. Additionally, Voodoo Brewing Co. is actively hiring for all positions as they prepare for the launch.
