We have been amazed and ecstatic by the incredible progress Fredericksburg has made in the past decade, particularly with the establishment of so many incredible restaurants, bars, and breweries. All of these bars have fed and refreshed us for years now, and as our city continues to grow, we wanted to learn more about what makes each of them so special. After days, weeks, MONTHS (we love us some hyperbole) of research, we are thrilled to share with you what we consider to be The Best Happy Hour deals in FXBG.

This Saturday, December 4th, bring your families to enjoy this year’s Candyland-themed parade. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., floats and music will encapsulate the streets of Fredericksburg, so experience the magic that is our joyous city before, during, and after the parade.
