Love this place! Very family oriented. Beer, coffee and wine? What's not to like? Great outdoor area. A chilly night? No need to worry. They have a fire place available! Staff is readily available for all your beer questions and was very friendly! Plenty of parking! Oh and check out their social media for all the upcoming events!

This is such a cute place! They have a ton of outdoor space and nice indoor spots. The beer is also really good. We'll definitely be back!

Not close to home but worth the visit! Really enjoyed the actual farm house packed with cool spots inside and out. Great beer selection at affordable rates doesn't hurt either. Farm house hefe was delicious! Plenty of parking, indoor and outdoor seating, and restrooms onsite. When the weather is nice, you can't beat a brew outside with family or friends here.

Great beer, fun outdoor space with lots of room for kids to run around and play. All their markets and events are worth going to

Want to note here that am reviewing Back Bay's as the host venue for today's 757 Mabuhay event - which gets better and better each time with more Filipino owned businesses showcasing their craft (candles, baby attires, etc), pastries (donuts, cupcakes, macaron, etc) and talent (music, dance, entertainment). There are food trucks for lechon, bowls, shaved ice, etc. Parking, however, is left to be desired.

This is such a great place to spend sometime outdoors, especially if you have kids. I went there with my family and a few friends who also have kids for a Halloween special event. There was tons of outdoor picnic tables and a few firepit areas. There's plenty of space for kids to play while parents have a few beers and food. There was a special market going on while we were there, where local artisans were selling goods like soaps, candles, jewelry, etc. It was a nice market to walk around for a little while. There was also a nice selection of food trucks, we were able to get awesome Filipino food from Lumpia King. The beer was good and the atmosphere was fun, so I would definitely recommend this for families.

Back bay brewing is a Marc Leishman owned place that we frequently visit when we're in the area. I think the options are quite solid -- probably the only lager that I would say is memorable. The one downside is that the farm may be a little quiet so it may not be conducive to larger groups. But then again, it has a charm of its own so if you're looking for a different type of beer-night out, I'd recommend it.

So to start, Back Bay Farmhouse Brewing Co. was not what I expected in a good way.  For one it literally is a farmhouse, surprise surprise surprise.  There is a super amount of room outside, with food trucks, activities, cabanas, a firepit, etc.  Good for the kids or fur kids, although dogs are not aloud inside the farm house because of licensing. They have an upstairs and downstairs bar, but on this occasion the downstairs was the only one open.  The line gets long, but with 3 servers the wait wasn't too long.  You can start a tab.  Wish they has an app so that you could just pre order and pick your beer up instead of standing in line. Still... the place it hot, hot, hot!!!! I loved the chill vibe of the upstairs lounge and the air was quite comfortable.  A minus for me is they serve the beer in plastic cups, but with the hundreds of guest they had that day, glassware doesn't seem feasible.  They do have beers to go.  So winning!!!! The BEER: Studio Farmhouse black IPA 6.7% ABV... started with this one.  I love black IPAs.  This one did not disappoint. Horchata Dubbel Belgian ale 7.5% ABV... Great cinnamon Belgian goodness. Loved it! The Legend of Rice Japanese rice Lager 5% ABV... reminded me of a better tasting Bud. Liked it. There are two locations that have their beer.  This is the better of the two locations.

I had an amazing time at this place with my co-workers. The aesthetic was wonderful--a beautiful building with traditional and elegant decor. The staff was super pleasant and welcoming. The drinks were excellent; I had the Apple Blossom Cider that was absolutely delicious. I recommend sitting indoors as it's very hot in the summer, and drinking in the heat doesn't mix well. When it's cooler, I think the outdoor seating would be great. I will definitely come again.

This is such a fun place to enjoy an afternoon or evening with friends. Back Bay's Farmhouse located on Kempsville Road in the heart of Virginia Beach has plenty of activities, oftentimes with live music and an overall fun atmosphere. They offer excellent craft beers and they usually have several food trucks on site if you're looking for something to eat while you're enjoying your adult beverages. They have plenty of activities for the kids as well as the adults. Check out Back Bay's Farmhouse, you'll be glad that you did and you can rest assured that you are supporting our local business community.
