Brewery Profile
Bunnyman Brewing Cafe - Lorton
Set on the historic grounds of the former Lorton Reformatory, also known as the Occoquan Workhouse, this brewery-cafe gives Lorton a beer stop with a built-in sense of place. The property is tied in local lore to the “Bunnyman” urban legends, but the visitor experience is more everyday and functional than theatrical: guests find a full-service cafe with craft beer, wine, hard cider, house-made sodas, coffee, and pastries. In the local beer scene, it stands apart from a standard taproom by operating as an all-day food-and-drink stop, with breakfast, lunch, and dinner rather than a beer-only format.
Travelers in Northern Virginia often look for brewery stops that can fit into a broader day of history, regional sightseeing, or casual dining. This Lorton location suits that kind of visit because it is tied to a notable historic site while also serving mixed groups that may not all be focused on beer. The known information does not list specific beer names or house styles, so visitors should treat the taproom as the place to confirm the day’s pours. The presence of wine, hard cider, and house-made sodas also makes the cafe useful for groups with different preferences.
For practical planning, this is the Bunnyman location to consider when a full meal is part of the outing. The cafe serves a complete breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu, with a coffee bar and pastries available daily. Unlike some other Bunnyman locations, the Lorton branch serves its beer, wine, cider, and sodas in a traditional format. Bunnyman Brewing began as a micro-brewery in Fairfax County, later operating across Burke, Lorton, and Chantilly before merging with Mustang Sally Brewing in summer 2025. Current hours, food details, and the active drink list are best confirmed directly before visiting.
