The new revitialized Waterside is POPPING OFF. Blue Moon Taphouse, Chipotle, The Harbor Club, Guy Fieri's Smokehouse, Stripers, The Market, Cogan's Pizza, PBR Norfolk Country Bar and more are all located here. It is on the water and you can grab a drink at one bar and then walk to another bar. Very communal feel.
