What to eat on your holiday in Charlottesville
Head to the Ivy Inn for Southern classics in the form of shrimp 'n grits or home cooked favourites like fried chicken and peach cobbler at Michie's. Enjoy seafood? Pop into Public Fish & Oyster for oysters rockefeller, oyster stew, and oysters lyonnaise.
The 30 wine farms along the Monticello Wine Trail provide opportunities to test some of Virginia's best blends, and include the award-winning Veritas Vineyards and Akida Ridge. Sample celebrated ales at the 6 breweries along the Brew Ridge Trail – from South Street Brewery in town to Blue Mountain Barrel house in Arrington.
Free concerts and exquisite art
Charlottesville has an arts and culture scene that could rival New York – on a smaller scale, of course. Galleries and theatres abound in Charlottesville and one of the USA’s best-loved artists, Georgia O'Keeffe, studied at the University here.
Visit the historic mountain-top Monticello, which was once the home of Thomas Jefferson. Next head to the Downtown Mall to scribble on the Freedom of Expression Wall. Don't miss the free concerts at the Charlottesville Pavilion or Batesville Country Store, and try to be in town for the annual Virginia Music Festival – Morgan Freeman and Anthony Hopkins usually are!
Going out in Charlottesville
Start your evening at one of the chic bars in downtown before heading to a show at the historic Paramount Theater or a concert in the Paul Jones Arena. If you like to boogie into the early hours, then head to one of the swish clubs along the Main Street strip that are always playing hip-shaking beats.
