A special use permit applied for by Haley's Honey Meadery has been approved by the Fredericksburg City Council.
Haley's, which is located in Hopewell over an hour south of Fredericksburg, will soon open a second location in the city. Haley's will be located at the old Pure Gas Station on Princess Anne Street and is currently under construction to be rebuilt as a tasting room and specialty restaurant.
The conditions of the special use permit will allow Haley's to operate a tasting room that will allow customers to sample ciders, mead, and wine which are made in Virginia. The permits also allow Haley's to sell those types of alcoholic beverages, none of those beverages will be made in the Fredericksburg restaurant but instead will be shipped up from their main location in Hopewell.
Haley's owner Tonya Haley told Potomac Local News that she was attracted to the area because of the upcoming breweries, wineries, and distillers that have come to the city over the last few years. The owners of those establishments and other members of the community brought the growing vibrancy and economic development to Haley's attention which encouraged her decision to open a new location in Fredericksburg.
Haley hopes to have the Fredericksburg location open before August.
Haley's will open in the Canal Quarter of the city which has been rezoned along with several nearby areas as a Creative Maker zone. The goal of the zone is to attract new and innovative businesses and allow them to create an identity that will make them unique and add to the charm and appeal of Fredericksburg.
"I'm looking forward to joining the Fredericksburg community," says Haley.
Haley's Honey Meadery will be located at 1600 Princess Anne Street in Downtown Fredericksburg and plans to operate from noon to 10 p.m. once it's open.
