    I've loved vanish for years. I can't believe this is the first review I'm writing! My favorite thing is the space itself. There are great indoor spaces and beautiful outdoor spaces so vanish is perfect for any day and any weather. They have great food, amazing drinks, and generally a great vibe. While it's a little far from DC, I still happily make the venture out there to enjoy an afternoon. I can't recommend enough!

    Oysters and beer
    Peps A.

    Vanish is an awesome spot to grab a drink and unwind. They've got a big selection of beers, and the ones I tried were delicious. The food menu is limited, think typical pub or brewery food. They happened to have oysters the day I went, and they were fantastic. There's tons of seating, and you can even bring a blanket and chill out on the grass. It's also a great place to bring the kids. Theres plenty of open space for them to run around while the adults relax. Definitely a spot worth checking out.

    Pork nachos

    Plenty of inside and outside seating. We stopped in for a quick bite and a cold beer. The beers hit the spot. I tried the whrexam red and my wife tried the watermelon mojito sour. The low ranking was for the food. We've had the pork nachos in the past. It was loaded with pork, jalapeno and cheese. This dish has hardly any pork, maybe a few slivers of jalapenos and was mostly canned cheese with sour cream.

    Side Mac n cheese - good, standard, definitely cheesy

    Came on a Saturday at 12pm. It wasn't too crowded at that time but definitely filled up when we left at 3. There are many food options from pizza to sandwiches to oysters. I got the Cubano and it was really tasty. I was worried the ciabatta bread would be too tough but it was soft and flakey. My husband got the fried chicken sandwich and was disappointed because it was just frozen chicken tenders, not fresh fried chicken made in house. The Mac and cheese was good. I like that they had 3 NA beef options. The venue is huge with plenty of seating options from indoor to outdoor both covered and uncovered. And there is a boutique offering tog toys, kids clothing, and women's clothing and accessories.

    Very interesting brewery with great beer options and decent food. As you drive up to the parking lot, the location feels a bit strange with old and delapitated buildings. However, once you get inside it's a massive indoor and outdoor space. The menu has plenty of great beer options. Basic brewery food but they appear to have food trucks on weekends. Live music was amazing and it felt like a lot of people were singing along. Cool merchandise. Clean bathrooms. Just an overall great experience. Would love to come here in the Fall!

    The beer was excellent- each was pretty true to its style. La Hacienda 5%ABV (Mexican Lager) was smooth & refreshing; I'm not an IPA guy and while Fat Boys 8.5% ABV! (trad IPA) was true to style it didn't change my mind about IPAs, Midnight City 7.1%ABV (Black currant/Blueberry Cider) fruity cider, more sweet than dry- almost sangria like or a strong lambrusco; Wraith 5.3%ABV (Witbier/Wheat) very interesting and tasty- the chamomile & coriander are a great combination for this style- highly recommend; Wrexham Red 6% (Amber Lager) perfect amount of malt/tofee- best of this style I've had since returning from Europe- they've done good; and last but not least: Anti-Hero 4.8% (Dark Lager) I'm a dark beer fan at heart and this tasted more like a Porter or Stout - in a good way! Not as heavy as those styles so a perfect hot weather session beer for dark beer aficionados- definitely more Enrique Ingelsias Hero than T Swift AntiHero Bonus: Electroplasm 4.5% (Sour Ale + electrolytes) Green! slightly sweet- or at least not overly sour, delicious and perfect for this heat wave! Service was terrific and the bar food (chips with salsa or queso, pretzels cheese or hot dogs are ideal for a drinking session! The tap room was large with a very long s-curved bar seating about 12 as well as 16 well spaced picnic tables and a large open area that can accommodate another 30 people. This doesn't even address the other half of the building or the ample outdoor areas (gorgeous) I simply didn't have time to explore. If you are anywhere near Vanish you owe it to yourself to stop in and "Vanish" from the rat race for awhile. The vibe is perfect and I will return with family and friends and try another flight or two of the beers i wasn't able to get to. These is

    Let me say it very simply. I love this place. Vanish has really good beer, especially if you like IPAs. And they have wine for the non beer drinkers. The venue is huge. And I mean enormous. Many indoor and outdoor areas. And dogs are welcome everywhere except for the main taproom, which probably is a Virginia state law. On weekends they have oysters. Raw and grilled. The oysters are farm raised in Virginia, but are basically Virginia Salts. Briny, plump and very very tasty. I've eaten a lot of Virginia Salts. They're pretty hard to shuck but well worth the effort. Other than the oysters, the food menu looks good. BBQ, pizza and a variety of other dishes. Staff are very friendly. Overall this is a great place if you love good beer and oysters. Can't wait to come back.

    Stopped by Vanish Brewery recently to grab a few drinks and bite to eat and they didn't disappoint. This brewery is huge! They have tons of indoor and outdoor seating, an arcade, a mini boutique for some shopping, and a playground for the little ones. If you're not a fan of beer (I enjoyed the Strawberry Blonde), they also have a few cocktails (mixed berry sangria and spicy margarita are musts!), cider, and wine for you to enjoy. Vanish also offers so many food options that everyone can enjoy (our favorite was the shrimp and pizza). Bonus for being dog friendly (your furry friends can't be in the taproom, though).

    Great vibes! Good beer and oysters and shrimp from Chesapeake bay!! Cool place to check out with friends!

    Do you have dart boards?

    I did not notice any. I went last Fall.

    Do they play NFL games other than redskins?

    Sure they do. I've been in there and there was a few games and other sports on.

    Is this place pet friendly?

    Yes it is. They have a covered indoor area separate from the actual brewery as well as several outdoor areas.

Unfortunately, the experience took a turn when I ordered a pretzel and began eating it. My friend noticed something on the pretzel and pointed out that there was mold on it. I stopped eating immediately and brought it to the waiter's attention. He was understanding, removed the pretzel from my bill, and asked if I would like something else. At that point, however, my confidence in the food had been shaken. After finding mold on something I had already started eating, I no longer felt comfortable ordering anything else because I was concerned about what other issues might be overlooked. I politely declined. The final surprise came when I received the bill. I had added a tip when paying, not realizing that an 18% service charge had already been included. As a result, my $11 drink ended up costing me approximately $18. While I understand that service charges may be part of a brewery's pricing structure, I would have appreciated clearer communication about the charge before adding an additional tip. Overall, while the atmosphere, view, and staff were pleasant, finding mold on my food and then unexpectedly paying significantly more for a single drink left a very disappointing impression.

I've been going to breweries in Northern Virginia for over 14 years now and have seen a ton come and go. From Ocelot, to Old Ox, from Adroit Theory to Aslin, Solace, Honor, Route 7, Wheatland Springs, Dominion, Caboose, Crooked Run, Bluemont, Dirt Farm and probably some more. Bottom line - Lark is your average family get together venue, it rivals with Vanish, Dirt Farm and Bear Chase. Tons of room for the fam to run around and play, however - very limited parking space for the amount of seating areas. The service was okay, as someone who has served Beer and Wine for almost 3 years, I totally understand. However the staff was pretty hard to work with. They would stand behind the counter, they don't make eye contact and they don't ask who's next or really know how to engage the customer. They don't seem to be interested in their own beer. At one point there were 7 employees behind the counter while there were 3 -5 people in line. They should have teamed up and taken care of all 3 - 5 people at once. Pro tip: one person can serve multiple people, you don't need 7 people behind the bar. Get them working, you have waaaaay too many employees and barely any of them know what IBU means. For the beer, if you're a person who uses Untappd, I gave the brewery a 3/5. The beers were okay and probably need a lot more time for research. Why is a pilsner extra hoppy? But if you're really looking for a great venue with amazing service and amazing beer? Annnnnd family time? Hit up Wheatland Springs and you will not be disappointed Save yourself some time and money and just go to Ocelot for good beer and for beer and the family go to Wheatland Springs Lark is fairly new to the game but they're pulling the venue vibe card. Service 2/5 Beer 3/5 Venue 4/5 (Live music outside would take it further)

Burger, Mac and cheese, potato salad, and the biggest pretzel you've ever seen. All very good. The location itself wasn't bad either. Seating indoors with a few TVs, an upstairs over 21 only spot that has TVs, dart boards, and a foosball table. Outside there is some covered seating, picnic tables, and a small pavilion where live music is played. Always important too for the kids there is a playground and decent space to run around.
