Quincy Hall — Restaurant in Virginia

Overall it's a good spot, nothing wrong but could be so much more. I went Sunday night around 7pm. The place was pretty empty. The bar and the space is huuuuge. The music was really low and since it was empty it just felt kind of awkward. The service was okay. One bartender seemed very new and the more experienced bartender was a bit interesting. She told the new bartender to upcharge a dollar for a cocktail of menu, which I thought was kinda odd. It was very clean and I liked the bar top. It was so dark though, it made feel like a cave, some orange light would help a ton. Not much to do in the way of activities, I felt like with all the space they should have some sort of games or activities. It could be a nice local sports pizza bar spot if they had more TVs and the customers, it's new so I hope it grows. I can see the appeal of what they're going for, long tables, eating with friends maybe watching a game, but i think they should sacrifice some tables for games. It will draw more people in outside peak times, and add options. I'm not sure they can go the bronson route of just beer and nothing else to do(outside the pizza).The food was to go, the pizza was good, the classico was good IMO no where close to domino's as some have mentioned, the mushroom one was a little more undercooked on the top which made it less desirable and could've used some more sauce. Nothing about this place is bad and if you go when it's busy I'm sure it will be better, but for less busy hours it's a bit wierd in the space. Add more lighting, louder music( not blasting but it shouldn't be quiter than a Starbucks) better service( bartenders seemed very uninterested in being there) maybe some games to play, and It'd be a killer spot. Glad to support a local place and I'll be back a couple times before really deciding if it will be local...

Edit: They've really gotten their stuff together over the past several months. This is a fun venue with friendly staff. Adding table service was a good idea. It's still a little noisy in there during trivia nights, but that's not too surprising. All in all, this is a good place for an after-work drink and a slice.

Original Review: I was really hoping for better, especially given how long we've been waiting for Quincy Hall to open. The pizza is good, but the crust is way too firm. The slices are huge, so they're a little cumbersome to deal with. If you're sitting at the bar, you place your order with the bartender, but you have to go to pick up your pizza, silverware, and napkins. Other than them taking the order, it's a self-service joint. And when you pick up the pizza, it's still on a very hot pizza plate, so you have to be careful carrying it back to your table (Easy solution: After the pizza is cooked, the chefs can slide it off of the hot plate and onto a fresh one. That will prevent customers from potentially burning their hands and can help reduce overcooking.)

It was pretty busy on their opening night last night, but the noise wasn't too bad, so I think they may have done something clever with the acoustics, which I appreciate. The space is fun and has the potential to be a good hangout, but if they want to be known for their pizza, I think they will have to step up their game a bit. I'm going to give them a few weeks to work out the kinks and I'll check...

In all my travels across distant lands and perilous roads, never have I encountered a tavern quite like Quincy Hall. But let me tell you, dear reader, it wasn't the ale (though it flowed like a river in spring) or the food (which could fill a dragon's belly) that made this place legendary—it was the bartender, Callie.

By the gods, this woman was a force of nature. Callie didn't just serve drinks; she commanded the bar with the precision of a battle-hardened general. A dozen orders flying her way? She handled them all with the speed of a striking hawk and the accuracy of an elven archer.

No request was too difficult, no patron too rowdy. Callie had an uncanny ability to know exactly what you needed before you even asked. Thirsty? A pint of the finest ale appeared before you, cold and frothy. Feeling adventurous? She’d pour you something that could knock the boots off a dwarven king. And if you thought about causing trouble, well, one look from Callie would send even the bravest warrior quietly back to his seat.

This wasn’t just service; it was an art form. Callie turned the simple act of ordering a drink into an experience so grand it felt like an epic quest—one that ended with you triumphantly raising your tankard in victory.

So if your travels ever take you near Quincy Hall, don’t pass it by. Step inside, and let Callie take care of the rest. I promise you, you’ll leave with a story worth telling and a thirst so thoroughly quenched, you'll swear it...
