Begun in 1987 as a caterer in Urbanna, has now grown to also be a waterfront Restaurant serving in our location in White Stone, Virginia. Our Cafe' has become a popular eatery in Lancaster County, drawing people from surrounding towns of Irvington, Kilmarnock, and Lively. Our Cafe' began in 1992 and we added our Coffee Shop in April of 2008. Unfortunately, on February 11, 2010, a fire, originating

in the attic, engulfed our location. We relocated to 327 Old Ferry Road in White Stone. Our Cater division has served many diverse parties though out the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula as well as the entire state of Virginia. We service Corporate Picnics, Family Reunions, Weddings, Fund Raisers, Promotional Events as well as many other types of social and group gatherings. We serve Upscale Galas and Backyard Barbecues with Casual Elegance. For the past three years, we have been voted the number one caterer in eastern Virginia by the readers of the Virginia Living Magazine. Willaby's Cafe' is open for lunch Friday and Saturday, 11-3, Dinner Wednesday through Saturday 5 till 8. Come in and try our new menu items. We opened our doors in August 1992 and have grown each year since relying heavily on an excellent staff and a splash here and there of our Fine Sauces. We now serve Lunch and Dinner. At the lower end of the Northern Neck of Virginia lies the county of Lancaster and at the lower end of Lancaster lies Willaby's Restaurant in the town of White Stone. So you might say we're pretty far down there. Willaby's was a consistent Live Music venue every Thursday and Friday Night. Thursday Night followed a format we call Performers on the Rise that showcases local Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula talent. On Friday we had what we called Friday Night Live where we bring in talented, seasoned musicians from not only Virginia but also the entire Mid-Atlantic region. Through careful attention to enhancing acoustics and a high-quality house music system, our venue has become a favorite spot for live music for concert goers from throughout eastern Virginia. We look forward to serving music with our great food and beverages again when it is safe to do so.

If you caught this band back in June, you know not to miss this show.

Tomorrow Night, Thursday September 4, 7:00 till 10:00.

They are a soulful, funky, and blues influenced band of buddies from New York City. They do a healthy mix of covers and originals. Rae the Band is a 4 piece band of friends from all different music backgrounds coming together to play some music they love. They are made up of female front woman whose vocal will raise the hair on your arms and her rhythm guitar playing holds it down, a lead guitar player who truly makes his guitar sing, one of the funkiest bass players to grace the stage, and a drummer with the deepest pocket.

I rarely say this but Do Not Miss This Show!
