Dang, wish I had known about their soft open before I went and got a pizza from Arianna's. But on the plus side I'll have plenty of opportunities in the future to get stuff from Revel, and whoever made the dough and pizza tonight at Arianna's did a fantastic job as that was the best one I've had from there yet...

Worst thing about the airport is the tiny flimsy paper towels in the restrooms. Other than that as other have said it's the lack of food options, especially in the early morning and evenings. Otherwise it's one of my favorites, and I fly 60+ times a year so I know a thing or two about awful airports (looking at you O'Hare and JFK)

My mom's in a different state, but she's so beyond ready to retire in the next few years. It's incredible how badly screwed over teachers have been and especially in the last few years since the pandemic started and then admin/school boards/districts/legislators are feigning surprise at dwindling performance and staff levels. It's such a joke.

My partner and I were also able to get in for the soft opening! I found out it’s the same owners as Julep’s, so the expectations were high to begin with. We were seriously impressed with how creative the menu was. Great date night spot because everything is truly meant to be shared.

I’ve always thought upstairs at Whole Foods would be a great coworking spot during the week. No way that’s crowded then right

Ours was 12:30-2 and that was a long stretch for my early riser. Some do 12:30 but many do seem to do 1.

No recs because I haven’t seen any openings in the 15 places I’ve called.

Actually, RIC is an excellent airport. The only thing I can complain about is it doesn’t have restaurants and shops like busier airports. The restaurants don’t stay open. It is very clean and one of the nicest for disabled as far as assistance. I prefer Richmond over Dulles any day. If you want a bad airport, write about Dulles.
