Wildwood Park

Take a break from the river and head into the woods - in the center of Radford! This park has over 50 acres of woodland, hiking, birdwatching, and creek walking.

Longway Brewing

Radford’s first microbrewery - this place serves up delicious beer in a converted church. Enjoy the beer, food trucks, trivia nights, and live music and also feel good knowing that some of the proceeds go to support the Radford Fairlawn Daily Bread - Longway’s co-tenants who provide food to those in need.

Downeydog Yoga

This community-based yoga studio has a home in Radford’s hip downtown. It offers classes for all levels of yogis and even has online offerings.

Radford Coffee Company

This place serves up great coffee, smoothies, breakfast, and lunch in a cool and relaxed atmosphere. They don’t mind if you want a quick cup to-go or if you stay for a long study session. A cut of their proceeds goes to support Project Ezra, a program that provides k-12 education in Miskito, Nicaragua!
