The Piedmont’s Only Farm-Owned Gastropub
Hunter’s Head Tavern is a Four-Star Certified Green Restaurant® Specializing in Sustainable & Humanely Raised Fare From Our Farm Down the Road.
The Original Farm-to-Fork Experience
In 1996, we did something no one else was doing: We started Virginia’s first Certified Humane® and Organic farm, dedicated to raising heritage-breed animals using sustainable, regenerative practices. Five years later, we opened Hunter’s Head Tavern just three miles away with the goal of offering the finest ingredients directly from our fields.

Bringing Sustainability to the Table
The beef, pork, poultry, and eggs served at Hunter’s Head come straight from our regenerative farm. Our seasonal menu focuses on the freshest, most wholesome food available, prepared to order with a deep respect for the sources and quality of the ingredients. This is our way of doing something positive for our farmers, our families, and our environment.
