Outside Magazine deemed Richmond Virginia the best river town in the country in 2012. Richmond is also famous for some great places to eat. If your craving baked sweets or meat pies Richmond has it all, you won't go away hungry! So after braving the Pipeline rapids, biking the Buttermilk trail or scaling Manchester wall you will have probably worked up an appetite. Just a short drive from these exciting locations is historic Church Hill. Church Hill offers a plethora of food options that will leave a diverse mouth satisfied. One way to get a taste for a little of everything is taking the Real Richmond Food Tour.
Partaking in a Richmond Food Tour is the best! You are able to tastes samples from a variety of hole in the wall restaurants and bakeries. Along the way you are also enlightened with Richmond's rich history form the guide. The tour covers a wide range of food from Pizza to cakes to Barbeque. Our first food stop was Alamo Barbeque. Probably one of the best Barbeque sandwiches I have ever had. Fresh meat and coleslaw tossed together with incredible sauce! The good hits kept coming. We stopped next at Anthony's on the Hill Pizzeria and had some of the most delectable and freshly made pizza in the city. This was quite a step up from Papa Johns. The sauce was home made and tasted more like actual tomatoes than regular pizza sauce! To relieve our palates with sweets we stopped at WPA bakery and tasted butterscotch pie and vanilla cupcakes. Both home made and super tasty! We then came to Sub Abrosa bakery which did not serve us food but gave us instead a good story. The place burned down after being opened nearly a year. The owners are hard at work in an attempt to reopen sometime this December. Sub Abrosa specializes in Mediterranean pastries that where the talk of the town before the fire. Can't wait for their reopening! Lastly we swung in for some New Zealand pies at Proper Pie. They have several combinations of pies ranging from sweat to salty. There is also no dearth of pastries as Proper Pie is a functioning bakery as well. All in all great tour! We where fed with great quality food and knowledge about Church Hill and each restaurant!
If you stop into Richmond for some play time in the James River Park be sure you quench your hunger with some excellent food in Church Hill!
