Shannon PrewittJune 7, 2014Has a very welcoming environment; low lighting to make you feel comfy. The staff is super friendly and their burgers and sweet potato fries are equally comparable to B&D Burgers! A surefire must go!!!
Shelby OwenOctober 6, 2013We recently moved to Charlottesville and are absolutely in love with this place! We haven't eaten there, just drinks. Amazing! People are nice and service is fast. Thumbs up!👍
Nick is the Golden God of cocktails. Seriously. He makes cocktails like they were made in the golden age of cocktails. He's an artist, a scientist, and a historian of the drink.
Tarek PertewMay 31, 2015Being blessed with quite a selection of delicious egg and brunch spots in NYC, I must say, the vegetable omelette rates nicely.
AazAugust 20, 2015I've never been disappointed with Commonwealth. They offer a great menu for brunch or any other meal, with lots of variety and flavors!- John BoyerJune 15, 2013Local sourced fried chicken sandwich, and a pint of Bold Rock cider = all Virginia lunch of champions! T. Jefferson would totally chow down on this with pride.
Andrew SpenceOctober 26, 2015Had the BBQ Shrimp and Grits. Little heavy on the sauce and came with very spicy slices of sausage. Good meal for brunch.
eileenJanuary 18, 2015Great scallops. Fiancé had the special filet- to die for. Very yummy green beans
Frances SternJune 8, 2012Great service. Outdoor seating. Friendly locals. Close to happening bars. Great atmosphere.
Anthony BowersMay 24, 2012Don't sit at the lopsided two seater tables by the balcony. They get more drink than you will.
Ellie PinesOctober 2, 2014Vaping is allowed on the upper patio, unless other customers complain. No strict policy.- Dine downstairs for amazing food, then head upstairs to hang out at the Skybar. An entirely open air bar and lounge!
- Best food and drinks in C'Ville. You won't be disappointed.
Best of C-Ville '12: Best Bartender (Nick Crutchfield), Best Bar. Runner-up: Best New Restaurant- Ellie PinesSeptember 3, 2014The service is nice and they have a good cocktail selection, but I honestly don't get what all the hype is about.
Commonwealth and skybar have different menus so beware!
Chris PetzOctober 16, 2011Nice new bar in Cville. BUT most expensive beer in town and terrible cocktails.
- Just saw the new cocktail list! It's boozy and beautiful!
Lauren MillsOctober 16, 2011Nice enough bar but the drinks are expensive and they are not that tasty
