ABC Liquor store. Located by Food Lion in Hayes. A nice selection of spirits. I've always found the staff to be nice and friendly the few times I've been in there. If you are new to Virginia, beer and wine are sold pretty much everywhere. Liquor however is state controlled and only sold in state controlled ABC stores. This brings me to a few questions. One, even though I understand the need to control a substance that has extreme potential danger, isn't state control a form of monopoly hence legalizing a monopoly which in other cases is against the law? Also, ABC stores are run for a profit. If a store is not making money, I've seen these stores shut down. So these stores are run for profit. Okay, so where are the profits allocated to? In these times of rising taxes, just some questions to ponder.

Hong Kong, Chinese Restaurant, Hayes, Gloucester VA
Hong Kong restaurant. No web site found. We've been there a number of times and there is good reason for that. The food is good, the service is decent and the prices are in line. You can eat in or take out. A nice and extensive menu selection and the place is always clean. This restaurant has been serving Gloucester for years and for good reason. Please be sure to stop in.

Gloucester County, Virginia Links & News Expansion Site View

The above image is of our Gloucester Expansion site where we have started working on bringing you special offers and coupons from local area businesses. To visit the new site, Click Here. We are considering even more major expansions and we are asking for your help. We are thinking about putting together something like an area yellow pages section. One site would be dedicated to doctors, another lawyers, real estate agents, auto dealers and so on. We want to know if you would use these sites if we set them up. We have put a survey at the bottom of this page and ask that you please take a short moment and give us your thoughts on the matter.
Thank you in advance.
