Bee & Butter


Bee & Butter, our fine-dining restaurant, serves up delectable sharing plates crafted with only the best ingredients to be found from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay. Think fresh seafood, grilled and planch-prepared meats accompanied by fresh “gifts of the garden” vegetables, and tempting desserts. Tuck into a few social sharing plates and an evening Scotch, or keep an entrée and craft beer all to yourself! Stunning views are always on the menu at the rooftop restaurant and bar with 360° views of downtown Radford. Inside and out, Bee & Butter is a feast for the senses.
