Young Veterans Brewing Company opened their doors on September 7th, 2013. Comprised of Army Veterans, Neil McCanon and Thomas Wilder, the duo accomplished their dream of owning and operating a craft brewery. After five years of business and creating over 60 different craft beers, they embarked on a mission with their new friend Chris Holyfield to bring something truly special to the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. So began The Bunker! A family friendly restaurant specializing in the taste of southern coastal cuisine; complete with seafood pasta, burgers, crab cakes and our famous Virginia Beach Hot Chicken Sandwich! Of course, no brewpub would be complete without a small batch brewhouse where we experiment with ingredients to create new and exciting craft beer styles. If you're a fan of blues, rock, and everything in between; The Bunker is a great place to check out local and national touring talent. Join us for a concert in our first-rate live music venue and the best sounding room at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront! Our intimate and accessible space will not only allow you to enjoy great music, but you'll be so close to the action that you'll be able to read the brand name on the drummer's sticks.
