GWARbar is OPEN!

(Credit: Killshot Photography) 

With only 4 hours to spare, GWAR made good on Oderus Urungus' promise to open the GWARbar in
2014 when they smashed down the doors to 217 W. Clay St. Richmond,
Virginia, in the historic Jackson Ward arts district, on New Year's Eve
2014. The ensuing party has yet to die down as GWAR fans, foodies and even neighborhood families revel in this brilliant new addition to the Virginia restaurant scene.

The GWARbar makes real the longtime fantasy of GWAR,
the most brutal rock band in history, to open a restaurant and bar
worthy of their name. The project was spurred by Jonathan Staples of
James River Distillery and their departed lead singer, Dave Brockie.
Along with restaurant partner Travis Croxton of Rappahannock, GWARbar's mission is to bring "intergalactic junk food" to citizens of Richmond, Virginia and visiting GWAR
fans from around the universe. The restaurant's ambience balances
beauty and brutality in the band's trademark style, brought to life with
the design and construction genius of Barry Griffin at Griffin
Customs. 

Patrons of GWARbar will enjoy sipping signature drinks out of a specially designed GWAR Tiki mug. Founder and owner, Holden Westland of Southern California's Tiki Farm, the world's largest manufacturer of Tiki mugs, has worked with GWAR
to create a Tiki based on the band's characteristic visual style. This
GWAR Tiki will be highly collectible, and is available exclusively at
the GWARbar. 

Michael Derks, GWAR guitarist, and the driving force behind GWARbar reports,
"The thing most people are surprised about is just how damn good the
food is. Head chef Jeremy Dutra (drummer for Richmond's own US Bastards)
has made my vision of gourmet junk food rock! With items like our
Scumdogs (house made sausages) and McDuckets (a duck, chicken, cheese
and truffle nugget) we are turning your guilty pleasures into
gastronomic masterpieces!"
