Indulge. Shop. Hook up. Escape. Of the many ways to celebrate single life in Richmond, or to pretend to be single for a day, here are some of the best - whether you're headed out alone or with the girls.

A True Girls Night

Babe's of Carytown

3166 W Cary St, Richmond, VA 23221

Babe’s has made its mark on traditionally conservative Richmond, promoting itself as a lesbian bar. Widely accepting of any and all who enter, Babe’s maintains an alternative, unique feel. Open for lunch and dinner, the food at Babe’s is good, for being a bar, but that’s not why people show up. Thursday through Saturday nights are when Babe’s really shines.

Have a few drinks and dance until they make you stop.

On weekend nights, the Tobacco Company is the place to meet young, handsome men. The dance music definitely precludes any hopes of conversation, so you can even pretend he’s as intelligent as he is attractive.

Richmond's Indulgences

Get Away for Just One Day

Grab your bikini, sunglasses and towel and hop into the car for a short two-hour drive to Virginia Beach. Vast expanses of warm, soft sand give plenty of room to sun and guy watch.
