THE RICHMOND REGION’S LAKESIDE NEIGHBORHOOD

Quirky shops, vintage stores and cool cafés

The 50-acre, nationally acclaimed Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden is the crown jewel of Lakeside. But that’s not the only reason to come here. Hit up the classic burger shack Roy’s Big Burger, bring your furry friend to SB’s Lakeside Love Shack for a bite on the dog-friendly patio, or head to Hobnob, a secret little spot with amazing fare. Check out the antique shops and curiosity stores (Lakeside has a magic shop!) And, being that it’s Richmond, there’s a brewery here, of course. Stop by Final Gravity after an afternoon at the garden.
