Harry's at Hofheimer is a bar in Richmond, VA, located at 2818 W Broad St. It operates as a cocktail-inspired restaurant focused on innovative new American cuisine, serving happy hour, dinner, and brunch to patrons in Richmond's Scott's Addition neighborhood. The establishment is situated in the Historic Hofheimer Building, a 14,000-square-foot, three-level structure built in 1928 for Herold "Harry" Hofheimer. The space includes an on-site restaurant, an event venue floor, and a rooftop bar, designed to accommodate both individual guests and large groups seeking a celebratory experience.
The concept draws inspiration from two iconic figures of the 1920s: Harry Craddock, the mixologist of The Savoy Hotel in London, and Harry MacElhone, author of "Harry's ABCs of Mixing Cocktails." This historical influence shapes the modern approach to the classic cocktail bar found within the 2,000-square-foot first-floor dining room. The interior features custom commissioned portraits of famous people named "Harry," created by local artist Todd Hale, which adorn the entire space. The menu offers new American small plates, shareable boards, and entrees with a variety of dietary options. Walk-ins are welcome, and reservations are optional, allowing for an intimate and artistic atmosphere where art and mixology intersect.
The location sits on West Broad Street, just north of the intersection with North Arthur Ashe Boulevard. It is approximately a tenth of a mile from the Sheltering Arms clinic. The Richmond Triangle Players theater and the Children's Museum of Richmond are both located about a fifth of a mile away, placing the bar within a short walk of local cultural venues.
With a rating of 4.60 based on customer reviews, the business holds a positive reputation among those who have visited. It serves as a distinct destination in Scott's Addition for those interested in creative dining and cocktail culture.
