Woolfolk & Sons Seafood has closed their doors
08/26/2011 9:17 AM by John M
The Richmond Free Press is reporting that Woolfolk & Sons Seafood Restaurant at 1627 Mechanicsville Turnpike “has closed as a result of the owners’ retirement”.
I am very sorry to hear this. I enjoyed my meals the several times I visited Woolfolk’s. I believe they were in business for quite a while.
I wonder what this means for the bail bonding business? Will that be closing too? I’ve always thought the restaurant/bail bonding business was an odd business model…
i believe their son ran the bail bonding business before he was murdered.
On a related note (seafood related), is there any place around here that actually sells local seafood? I love cooking shrimp and various Atlantic fish, but every time I visit a local fishmonger, they are just selling frozen goods or non-local shell fish. I am sure there has got to be a secret fish market or something around here. I miss driving up to the docks and buying it from the fishermen themselves.
James,
Let us know when you find one.
James,
Give the Yellow Umbrella a look. They are over on Patterson. I have bought seafood from them a number of times before..

The Bail bond business is alive and well. My Uncle has more than one son…Thus the Sons in Woolfolk and sons Restaurant.
