Révéler is the kind of place that defies easy description, which is exactly what makes it worth visiting. The décor is wildly eclectic and definitely gives the spot a unique feel. I was there for a private event. The crowd was warm and wonderfully mixed. There was a little chat before the event began that basically told us to not get kicked out by being mean or non-inclusive. Not sure how I felt about that. Parking in Carytown is its own contact sport. Come early -- your blood pressure will thank you. I parked 6 blocks away and was lucky to get that. Bottom line: Weird, welcoming, and worth every lap around the block looking for a spot if you're into crowds and are looking for something different. read more

Came here with friends and it seems like a cool spot, especially for an older crowd. We purchased tickets expecting a jazz experience, but the music was not jazz at all, which was a bit disappointing. The art exhibitions were nice and definitely interesting to walk through. The charcuterie board we ordered was excellent and a highlight of the night. The location is also great for nightlife. That said, the drinks didn't quite hit the mark for me, and the service was inconsistent. We were told guests are expected to be quiet during the sets, yet another group was talking loudly and nothing was addressed, which felt a bit uneven. Overall, it's not a place I'd return to, and I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a more diverse crowd. read more

I attended a Plunky & Oneness performance at The Reveler during the Holiday season. This was my first visit to this venue & I must say I was thoroughly impressed with this space. From the ambiance to the food to the leadership behind this venue every aspect was exceptionally presented. I look forward to being a regular attendee at future performances at this venue. The fact that this venue also acknowledges that it is an LGBTQ+ safe space was paramount to my decision to attend events & support this business as frequently as I can. I already have tickets to another show & I cannot wait to attend. read more

Had a great first experience at Reveler for a concert. Street parking was easy, and the venue's intimate size means every spot has a great view and sound. The Pride Month cocktails were creative and delicious, and the space itself is full of personality. Service was spot on. Behind the bar are uniquely themed artistic rooms that I'm excited to explore next time. A really fun and distinctive spot in Richmond--I'll definitely be back. read more

Super fun concept, great place to go with friends or a fun date! The atmosphere is the most unique part of this place for me: there are so many unique knick knacks to discover, and different themed rooms/nooks that you can explore. I'd recommend this place based on the atmosphere alone. They have a good selection of drinks, and i have no complaints about the service either. It's great that they host live music as well. Super sweet vibes. read more

Very cool place to see a show, not a bad seat in the house. If you feel like stretching your legs, walk around and see some of the interesting decor in the back rooms. Sound quality was superb, every note was crystal clear. read more

Reveler is a great, intimate place to see live music. I've been twice - once for a dry happy hour and then for a show. Service was great both times. There isn't a bad seat in the house. Haven't tried the bites yet, but the drinks are pretty good. read more

Boy was this an experience ! As advertised. There were so many cool corners with things but i recommend coming to experience them all. The espresso martinis were so good as the esspresso was made fresh to order. Also they had games ! I was so entertained. There was also an amazing performance. I definitely will be back this spot had the quirky vibe I needed. The service was also really good. They had ran out of espresso and she let us know it's going to take an additional five minutes to brew some more. Those attention to details are pristine. read more

I love, love, love this place. I went with my kids to celebrate my son's birthday. We wanted an experience and boy did we get one. We went on "Funk night" and the band they had was awesome. I didn't catch their name but they had a female singer who had some strong pipes! She sang everything and the crowd loved it. When we walked in I felt like a kid in a candy store, there's aooo much to look at, stuff on the wall, ceiling, I mean EVERY WHERE lol. It's like cracker barrel on crack lol. The fun part of the night was they give the house band a break and ask musicians and singers in the audience to sign up to get on stage. They don't know each other or what song they play till they get up there. It was fun and entertaining to watch. The highlight was they had a magician walking around while we waited for the show to start. He was awesome.. very entertaining and kept us captivated. We don't know how he pulled off this card trick but it was sure fun to watch. read more

Honestly super disappointed about this but this was my first time coming here and I walked out 10 minutes after walking in. Why? Because where I was seated was INCREDIBLY uncomfortable. The table was tall, the chairs were tall, couldn't even get your legs under the table and the chairs were wobbly. I sat there for 10 minutes just uncomfortable. If I could have been at a normal table with normal chairs I would have been fine. Disappointed I couldn't even watch the show! The tables are also very close together. I posted a photo to my group chat and luckily they agreed this was just crazy for a business to have for seats. Everyone was very friendly though! My being upset is about the comfort for customers in these certain areas of the place. Mostly off to the sides. Definitely not disabled people friendly as far as the tall tables go unfortunately. read more

Reveler Experiences - Seating at some tables - Bars Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

A very cool creative space for artists of all kind. We passed by it during a stroll in Carytown and saw that there was going to be a live Jazz performance at 8 pm. Since we didn't eat dinner yet, we circled back here after finishing up dinner. Surprisingly, the place was already packed. There was limited seating where the live performance was being held near the front of the establishment. Which was slightly disheartening because I was hoping for a casual sit down and didn't fancy standing during the performance. It was also a $15 cover charge for the band that was playing. I believe their band name was Sweet Potato's. Fortunately, they had a back lounge seating area which is a $5 ish cover charge. I thought it was odd at first that they were charging to sit in the lounge area and assumed it was probably because there was a live band playing at the moment so you could potentially come to the front and enjoy the music. After working our way to the back lounge area, I soon understood why there was a cover for it. It was a huge creative space. If you could look inside of an artists' mind, this is probably what you'll find. So many things to see, so many things happening, so many things to do. There's easels all around so people can freely sketch/draw, pianos, guitars, violin, sand art table, dummy with imitation skin to practice tattooing, etc. I loved that each table you sat at had a table number with a QR code to order your drink on your phone. You can keep the tab open or close out once you have placed your order. I really enjoyed my time here and if I lived in the area I would definitely come every weekend. Not even to drink or anything but to do artsy things in a different environment that opens my mind to creativity. read more

The music was fantastic! This intimate little performance spot showcases plenty of local talent and some bigger stars for a reasonable ticket price. Cocktails are good, with many value options on the menu. Staff is friendly, and enthusiastic about the music, and the website does a good job describing the acts, so even if it's a band you've never heard of before, you'll know what kind of music to expect. It was a great experience. read more

I took myself on a solo date and visited Reveler Experiences located in Carytown, RVA and it was a truly magical experience. Reverler is an inclusive, enchanting art space and music club where grownups play like little kids. I took a stroll around the space to check out the rooms filled with cool and eclectic art. The room with the "Tree of Wishes" was enchanting indeed! So many cool things to see and take in! Look at it y'all! The night of my visit, the Corey Fonville Quartet were playing and they had the audience in a trance. They were so good! The bartenders are serving up tasty cocktails with a smile. They also have a food menu that I may check out next time but my food of choice that night was the delicious French 75. Geron makes a mean one! Go check them out y'all if you're looking to change up your scenery or impress a date. It's super cool! read more

Great live music venue in Carytown. The service is well planned and easy. Pick the night that suits your taste.

The jazz nights are lots of fun especially when the Duchess is there drinks are good if not a little pricey

We did the Treachery & High Tea experience and it was so fun! I had no idea what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the Escape Room+ experience. I won't ruin it for others but it was entertaining, well put together and food & drinks are included. The space itself is well decorated. Everyone I interacted with - from booking the tickets to checkout, was so kind and helpful. I am looking forward to checking out the live music they have weekly as well as the other interactive experiences. read more

This place is so beautiful inside and just good vibes all around. The wine selection is superb as the chef is a sommelier so he knows his wine. The food is also delish, small but filling little plates and they also have shareable. I came for lunch for food and wine and didn't disappoint. The service is also fantastic everyone who works here is so friendly and educated. This place is unknown from the outside but promise just go in and look all around, it's huge and so cool. read more

Once you've stepped into the Reveler, you feel like you've stepped onto another planet. This place is such an overall cool immersive experience and I can't wait to see what they do to enhance the late night music scene. Walk through the front door in Carytown and you'll see the bar straight ahead, but make sure you walk around the sides to see all of the art installations and cool interactive rooms they have. This is the perfect spot for a first date, especially on a night when they have music. All I hope for in the future, is that they move the tables and chairs before the music starts so people can be more comfortable dancing. It was very tight and squeezed up front by the band, but the room is big enough to fit a lot more people if they moved the tables and chairs. But, with that being said, you definitely won't find anything else like this place, in Carytown. So, if you're looking for something different and exciting, check this place out! I will definitely be back and I'm going to tell all of my friends to check it out as well! read more

I saw this establishment, one day walking through Cary town with a friend. We walked in and was amazed. The space seemed so magical and whimsical to us. A few months later, I saw on social media that the place was hosting a wine tasting. A friend of mine, and I decided to go. The wines were great, so we also decided to eat and drink more there. We sat at the bar and the bartender was so cool! I do not remember his name, but he is of Puerto Rican heritage. The happy hour has $5 eats and drinks which were not watered down or made with bottom shelf liquor!!! the food/bar bites were a few varieties of cold dips and chicken nachos but the eats were seasoned well and overall tasty. I cannot wait to go back to experience karaoke night. read more

The place such a vibe and everyone was so friendly. I'm already looking for the next performance!!! read more

My first introduction to Reveler was shortly after they opened. My friend decided to have her 40th bday celebration there with a big group of friends for an experience. No one knew exactly what to expect. We arrived and were ushered in and given a glass of champagne and encouraged to mingle as there were other people there not in our group. Eventually we were split up into different rooms. A groups of five or so of us were taken into a room and instructed to use water colors to paint half of a picture on paper and fold it over to make a Rorschach. We were then instructed to how to take turns hooking each other up to a polygraph and given cards to with questions on it. Most of us didn't know each other so it was a little weird but fun! After a while we were asked to go back and join the group for a couple other Parlour tricks and that was that. It was fun but not something I would likely go back to so when another friend asked me to go with her to a funk and blues open mic night back in the summer I was a bit hesitant but decided what the hell. And man oh man am I glad i did! These weekly jam sessions give space for local musicians, singers etc to get up on stage and live their best lives. It's one of the most accepting, diverse, and non judgmental environments. Young and old a like get down to some serious funk and soul! It's pretty epic. I've heard they have some other cool nights but I haven't checked them out yet. And if you buy the date night pass you get a reserved table with a bottle of wine or bubbly and three apps for like $60 which ain't bad for night out! read more
