Velocity Five

Last time I was in tried to use Centreville HS coupon that I paid for. Was told I couldn’t because I ordered wings and it was part of the appetizer happy hour. Went today didn’t take my coupon and ordered wings again. Got charged full price during happy hour. Asked isn’t this part of happy hour? I was told no. Of course I didn’t have my coupon and told her last time it was. Also she didn’t write any of the order down and I ordered boneless but got regular wings. I had to wait 20 minutes to get them. Wasn’t going to wait another 20 minutes for the correct wings. The people I was there with would have been done by then. Not going here again.

This is used to be a fun place with good food and service and now it is an average place with blow average service and food. Sad to see this place go down. Maybe new management but surely bunch of new inexperienced staff.

Always a good time here whether it’s for dinner or to catch a game. We went here with 10 people for a Birthday and the Redskin game was onand as busy as it was we had great service and food.

They charged a $ 10 cover charge saying it was for a DJ. There was no music played for over an hour and when I keft, I asked for a refund based on no music played. The clerk at the door said no music was played because there was a football game on tv. It was not PPV or anything. Logically this does not make any sense. Avoid.

**Mostly reviewing bar on Thu evenings**
My friends and I have always had a soft spot for this location because it’s one of the only bars we feel 100% comfortable being ourselves. We come whenever and just hangout at the bar and there’s typically a casual crowd. One Thursday, we couldn’t figure out where to go and decided to check it out and were pleasantly surprised. There were so many people there and we had so much fun running into old friends, current friends, etc. Now Thursdays at V5 is easily one of my favorite local atmospheres for the following reasons:
1. DJ playing good music
2. Beer pong if you’re into it
3. Fairly priced drinks
4. Awesome bartenders!
5. Full length mirror on the way to bathroom (lol)
Last time I ran into some friends and was surprised they came all the way to Centreville for V5. This place must be doing something right if people are coming from Woodbridge.
I’ve also seen their happy hour board but have never come in to try, but from what I’ve seen, they have really good specials.

7 people in here and I’ve been waiting 15 mins for a beer… got a steak and cheese and asked for no mushrooms… it’s smothered in them. Now there are 9 people in here and I can’t get a second beer. What’s that across the street, sweet water? See ya!

Our server was fairly attentive and was pleasant. Unfortunately, it took her 20 minutes looking for the bartender (I watched her search the bar for a bartender) before she came back and told us they were out of the beer we had requested. The jambalaya was delicious and my friend enjoyed her Philly Cheese Steak. My other friend would have as well had it not been covered in mushrooms, which she specifically requested be omitted. Overall, the experience was mediocre.

If you’re looking for a good spot to catch Sunday night football or to satisfy your happy hour needs, I would definitely recommend V5. Great beers on tap and an even better atmosphere. Jacob is an excellent bartender and will cater to your needs accordingly. Really friendly staff, even on the busier weekend nights. Typical bar food to cure those late night drunchies!

Horrible service… party of 4 came in around 1030 Friday night… looked like the party/​DJ was just getting started… lots of younger kids 21 – 25 running around… music pretty loud but decent mix of music. We sat in a booth and no one bothered to even greet us let alone ask if we wanted a drop of water to drink. After waiting for someone to approach our table for about 15 minutes we got up and left.

Bar like atmosphere — pretty decent drink selection — wings are hit or miss w some being way too crispy — my husband loves his lemon pepper wings — I would give 4 stars but both times I have been the service from the wait staff has been lacking!

It’s a bar. It’s local. They have some good beers and food specials most week nights. It’s a good place to meet up with friends, have a few beers and a burger. I’m pretty happy with it, haven’t been on the weekend. Staff is pretty nice, so far no problems. :)

Nice spot to go and hang out on a Friday night if you like hip hop music. They have 2 bars and a dance floor. Dj will get you dancing. Drinks are priced ok. Not sure why they charge 10 $ to get in though?

Trayon was an unbelievable server. Made us feel very special. Her attention to detail was superb. Wings continue to be phenomenal! I’m a loyal customer now. Thank you.

Looooong day at work. Decided to stop in here because I was starving. And after today, needed a beer! I ordered the calamari and a burger, I know, not a food conessuer, but it was great! Jacob was behind the bar, great service, great food! I’m glad to have stopped in, the people were great and I’m stuffed! Sleeping like a king tonight! This place looks like it’s perfectly set up for football games, I’ll definitely be back, 5 stars

I was having a get together at my house and decided to grab some food to-​go at V5. When I arrived, they were charging a $ 10 cover to get in. I talked to security at the door and told him I was grabbing food. He said okay, he will hold on to my I.D.
When I was leaving the restaurant with the food in my hand, the guy working security would not give me back my I.D. until I payed the $ 10 cover. This is completely unacceptable. Why should I pay at the door to pick up some food to go. When I told the guy this was ridiculous he responded «does it look like I care»
I will never go to this place again, nor grab food from here. You lost a valuable customer over 10 bucks.

Need professionalism… go to Jacob.
Knows what you want before you want it.
V5 is blessed to have a him on their team.

Nice little spot in Centreville
We sat at the bar and had a few rounds and ordered the boneless chicken wings. The chicken was good and didn’t taste like it was from a box, very flavorful. Drinks were so/​so depending on the bartender.
On the weekend: The DJ plays the latest hits on Sat night, with a dance floor and outdoor patio. Also, there are lots of TVs for game watching, but on mute when the DJ is playing.
Crowd: A mixed crowed… most are a little younger 21 – 25.
Only downside: $ 10 entrance fee on Sat nights after 9:30pm.

Ok can we start of with saying this place appears dirty as we walk in. I would choose the Falls church location instead. Crowd is a little ghetto but music is good as are the appetizers.

Can I just give no stars? I went on a Friday night to avoid driving to the city.
1– cover is $ 10
2-​food and drinks are expensive
3-​the crowd is eh
4-​the music is one genre and all u see is nasty nasty on the dance floor.
I really disliked the selection of music played, there were a total of 5 people that really got into the music and they were clearly wasted plus a pregnant lady. Lol
Don’t waste your time, drive to the city.

Food here was disappointing. I learned my lesson! The only semi good thing we ate were the mozzarella sticks.
The chicken pesto wrap, burger, wings, french fries were all terrible! Even the starvation I had suffered beforehand did not make the food taste good. Bland, oily, coldish mess of food.
None of my friends were satisfied and so we ended up going to get some good ol korean food afterwards.
