Named for a father.
Run like a family.
Gus' Bar & Grill has been the Fan District's neighborhood sports bar since March 2009.
Every customer is a friend.
Gus' Bar & Grill is a family-owned business started by Josephine Flemotomos. The name Gus' was chosen to honor her father — a family man who worked long hours to take care of the people he loved, and who had a clear vision of how to treat customers.
To this day, we follow Gus' philosophy: your customers are your friends, and every day you're in business is another opportunity to make a new one.
We opened in March 2009, replacing the old "Out of Bounds" sports bar with a brighter, cleaner, family-friendly room — and the Fan welcomed us in.
Three things we never compromise on.
Outstanding food
An elaborate menu that's untraditional for a sports bar — pub favorites like wings and pizza next to Greek salads, smoked brisket and a 12oz NY Strip.
Cold beer
A draft and bottle list everyone can enjoy, a full bar, and a weekday happy hour that runs from open until 7.
Friendly service
Meet new people, bring a date, bring the kids. You'll be treated like a regular from your first visit.
A Fan District fixture.
The inspiration
A hardworking father whose simple rule — treat customers like friends — became our founding philosophy.
Doors open
Josephine opens Gus' at 2701 W. Broad, transforming the former Out of Bounds into a bright, family-friendly sports bar.
Screens strong
The room grows into one of RVA's go-to spots for Premier League matches, NFL Sundays and UFC fight nights.
Still family
Same family, same philosophy — with 577+ Google reviews and a menu that keeps growing.
Come for the game. Stay for everything else.
