CCW in VA
What is the law with regard to CCW in VA in a restaurant? Is it that you must OC if the establishment serves alcohol? No alcohol=concealed carry allowed?

Here is a link to the VA State Police site. They have the information that you are seeking.
Section J3 contains the answer to your specific question. It is a good idea to read the whole page IMO. http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp...0+cod+18.2-308 Good reading.

Glad to help, especially a fellow Virginian and resident of the Tidewater area.

Exactly, you are not permitted concealed carry in any establishment that serves alcohol, HOWEVER, you ARE permitted Open Carry.
Restaurants & clubs serving on-premises alcohol (concealed carry prohibited, open carry NOT prohibited; owners & employees exempted) (§18.2-308.J3) http://www.vcdl.org/static/ccw.html
