Gold Lion Community Cafe is a vegetarian restaurant located in the Blackwell/Manchester district of Richmond, VA. With an Indian inspired menu, along with our American favorites, we aim to be an inclusive place for all. Along with our food, we also have a full espresso and ice cream bar, as well as an adjoining cocktail club, Duke’s Den.

Join us for one of our events, such as our Drag Brunches, Poetry Nights, Comedy Shows, and more!

“[The] hope is for the cafe to serve as a safe space where guests can experience everything from a local cup of coffee and Indian-tinged, plant-powered fare to craft cocktails and vegan bar nosh.”
