Those in Central Virginia who live a vegan lifestyle have a new place in Richmond to dine. Hang Space will open to the public with a grand opening party Saturday, January 12 at noon.

Owners April Viar, Dave Witte, and Tracy Flitcraft described their restaurant as serving comfort vegan food.

While the restaurant may be new, the trio is experienced with creating plant-based delicacies.

Viar is no stranger to the dining scene in Richmond, with a long-term stint at Edo Squid’s before starting Go Go Vegan Go, a Richmond-based vegan food truck, with Witte (who is also the drummer for Municipal Waste, a nationally-recognized metal band). Flitcraft is the creative force behind the Yummvees Catering, also vegan.

Their restaurant, next Food Lion off Burford Court in North Chesterfield, is designed with a laid back atmosphere, good music, and comfortable seating.
