People & Lifestyle

 
Just 45 minutes from Roanoke, Blacksburg is a classic small-town with a robust, civic-minded community centered around the innovative Virginia Tech campus. Consistently ranked as one of the best places to live in the country, Blacksburg residents are attracted to the lack of urban congestion, well-ranked schools, access to scenic mountain views, and plentiful trails for equestrian use, hiking, and biking. 
 
A bike-friendly town, Blacksburg is equally appealing to scholars and outdoor enthusiasts who appreciate the Appalachian Trail passing through and the New River, which is perfect for water activities like kayaking and canoeing. The newly built Moss Arts Center on the Virginia Tech campus regularly attracts world-class musicians and performers for creatives who like to take in a show during the weekends. But overall, Blacksburg is a quiet, peaceful town with plenty of locally-owned restaurants and shops to support and plentiful leisure activities to keep you and your family entertained all year long.
 

Dining, Shopping & Entertainment

 
A casual, Greek-Mediterranean restaurant in the heart of downtown Blacksburg, Cellar Restaurant encompasses a relaxed environment with great food and microbrews. Cellar's craft beer store has some of the best selections in the region. 
 
Downtown Blacksburg also hosts the Mexican Seagrill Cabo Fish Taco, a hot spot for Virginia Tech students looking to grab a quick bite. A casual, full-service Baja-Mexican restaurant serving unique dishes influenced by authentic Southern California cuisine, Cabo is open seven days a week for lunch, dinner, and carryout. 
 
For a casual brewpub experience, try Bull & Bones Brewhaus, which combines an upscale dining room and a sports bar with a casual dining area. Fresh lager and ale are handcrafted and served on-site, with the brewery visible through glass walls inside the restaurant. 
 
Sake House is Roanoke, Virginia's first and finest sushi restaurant. Opened in 1993, Sake House is a casual hotspot serving sushi, hot entrees, and of course, sake!

As we mentioned above, Virginia Tech's Moss Arts Center has a calendar full of unique performances and world-class musicians.
