The V Social Eatery and Brewhouse in Ashburn has closed its doors after nearly eight years in business on Waxpool Road. We’re told employees were notified last Friday that the restaurant was closing.

The V was located in the Ashburn Restaurant Plaza next to the Embassy Suites and Homewood Suites hotels. That’s the same plaza that has Moe’s Southwest Grill and Five Guys.

A sign on the door reads, in part: “We have made the management decision to close The V Eatery and Brewhouse. Unfortunately, we have not been able to re-negotiate a lease that will be beneficial to the long-term success of the establishment.”

No word on what will go into the prime spot. It’s nearly 8,ooo s.f. of restaurant space on a busy roadway, next door to two large hotels. Fingers crossed it will be something new, exciting, and most importantly, good.
