The Local's menu features a wide variety of culinary fare inspired by the offerings here in Virginia. Anyone can find something to enjoy at The Local. Some of our favorite dishes are the crispy shrimp with sesame aioli and local honey sambal and the Bison Hanger Steak Special from New Frontier Bisonry. Also not to miss is their trendy and unique cocktail list that is crafted to highlight local distilleries, wineries, cideries, and breweries. (There are many!)
If you happen to be in town on a Monday night, get there around 8pm and enjoy original live music at Singer/Song Writer night! It's a varied mix of musical styles (and talents - hehe) but always a great time.

OKAY, some of my friends roll their eyes when I bring up La Taza, but I can't get enough of their breakfast tacos and breakfast potatoes.
If you're here on the weekend and are willing to wait a little while (because they are usually busy), it's worth the wait.
If you're lucky and you are here during the week, you'll have no problem getting a table or placing a take-out order!
If you want to enjoy a nice cold drink around a fire conversing with locals, check our the Tikki Bar at La Taza. It's an outside bar with a tropical theme and relaxed atmosphere in the heart of Belmont.

Parks & Nature
Azalea Park is very close to our house and offers a wide variety of activities in a small space. You will find a large playground suitable for kids of all ages, a small baseball field, a dog park, urban gardens, a nature path, and soccer fields. The nature path follows behind the dog park and twists through the urban garden across a rope assisted rock-hop bridge across a small stream.
