"Ardent is always a good time! Solid place to come with a group or even to chill by yourself (or with a pet) on the dog friendly patio. I enjoy the rotating local beer selection as there is something new every time I visit. Very small food selection but everything they serve is delicious. Meatballs taste homemade and the wings were juicy. The staff is always welcoming and helpful answering questions about the beers. Another plus is they share a patio with Eazzy burger if you want heavier food options."

"Great location, beer garden is great. Beer is quality and continues to improve. Love their IPA series. (That was before) I now work in the neighborhood and Ardent is my go to spot. The X is a quality and consistent member of my IPA beer diet and I enjoy trying their rotating seasonals across the board. The adjacency to Eazzy Burger and ZZQ are solid adds to the site and it is absolutely the best beer garden in Richmond. Also the staff is amazing."

"Such a lovely little brewery. The staff was ace. Lively people with a. Great knowledge of their beers. Were happy to let you sample before choosing a beer to go with for the night. The pop and the 14 were great choices, and Maddie was great behind the bar. Would definitely recommend and revisit I'd im in the area again."

"Tasty beers and more! Plenty of room inside and out. As a dark beer fan, I appreciated the availability of a Porter and a Stout in June, both of which were excellent. The lighter beers were great for a summer evening as well. No complaints! Convenient option to order from your table, and food arrived almost immediately. A great choice whether you're looking for a flight of flavorful craft beers or just a tidy place to hang out. Cheers!"

"Good variety of brews available here. They had a lot of IPA's available, if that's your thing. There was a nice selection of food options on the menu. The place has a good atmosphere with seating, available inside and out. I will definitely be back."
