1631 Burgers Bourbon & Brew

1631 Burgers Bourbon & Brew is a unique casual speakeasy nestled in the heart of Poquoson, Virginia, proudly serving the community as a veteran and locally owned establishment. Named after the year Poquoson first appeared in official county documents—making it the longest continuously named city in Virginia—the restaurant pays homage to local history while delivering an exceptional dining experience. The kitchen focuses on crafting best-in-market made-to-order burgers featuring 6oz of an 80/20 premium blend of Virginia-raised beef, complemented by a tempting variety of gourmet toppings. House-made fresh fried potato chips come with signature dipping sauces, while the bourbon selection continues to grow, offering carefully curated barrel picks including Old Forester Barrel Proof. The establishment successfully brings together diverse patrons—from Poquoson's legendary salty watermen to NASA's brilliant scientists—creating a welcoming space where extraordinary conversations flow as freely as the drinks. Private event rentals are available for retirement parties, farewells, promotions, and special celebrations, offering exclusive use of the entire venue with customized dinner menus. Open Monday through Thursday 11am to 9pm, Friday and Saturday 11am to 10pm, and Sunday 9am to 8pm with brunch service from 9am to 2pm. The adjacent Poquoson Coffee House opens daily at 7am weekdays and 9am weekends, serving as the perfect morning complement to this beloved community gathering place.
