BAR • Smithfield, VA

The William Rand Tavern

The William Rand Tavern is a gloriously unpretentious dive, smelling vaguely of stale beer and untold stories, where the lights are dim and nobody's trying to impress anyone. This is your spot if you just want a stiff drink after a long shift or if your idea of a good time is yelling at the TV with fellow grizzled regulars, not trying to find a matcha martini. What makes it unique? It’s blissfully free of any 'curated experiences' or Instagram-worthy corners—it’s just a damn bar.

"We were one of two customers. We waited over a half an hour for our burgers. I requested medium rare. It came well done. Had to send the sweet potato fries back because they were soggy."

"Who knew pineapple garnished on top of salmon would be truly remarkable. Lovely food, lovely restaurant. Hubby enjoyed his steak as well 😋"
