The Water Dog brings together great craft brews and tasty food with an awesome riverside environment. Their food is focused on what tastes great with beer and friends, think raw oysters, hand-cut fries, grilled cheese sandwiches, shareable apps and fresh baked cookies – All made in-house! Their 36 draft brews are sourced to be as local as possible. Fill up one of their growlers or grab a mix-n-match sixer. Pull up a chair or sofa to one of the many indoor and outdoor TVs for the Virginia Tech vs. U of VA game or the large 150” screen projector. Bring the kids and let them play in the splash park just outside the Water Dog’s front door while you relax with cold drink and hot burger. They’ll even be spinning solid vinyl from time-to-time!

This restaurant is amazing, both in service and food! I was in town taking an intensive at Liberty and my mom and I happened upon this restaurant. The service was outstanding and our food was amazing! We loved it so much we ate there Sunday for lunch and then Tuesday and Thursday night for dinner. This restaurant is a must when in Lynchburg.

This place was incredible! From the ambiance, to the plate licking great food, and extensive beer selection, I was blown away. My only regret is that I live to far away to go again any time soon!

Food is great, love all the grilled cheese options! They have a great selection of beer as well. The fried pickles when we got them still had raw dough on them and we were told "that's just how they come" so no 5 star but everything else is great.

Did somebody say grilled cheese?? Amazing combos including mac and cheese or crab meat grilled cheeses! And delicious drinks! Pretzel bites were delicious too. Great prices, esp during happy hour.
