Our Story

About The Junction

A refined cocktail lounge rooted in Staunton's history.

The Story

Where Paths Cross

The Junction is named for both the historic train station it calls home and the point where paths, people, and experiences intersect.

Located inside Staunton's historic depot alongside The Depot Grille, The Junction transforms a place once defined by arrivals and departures into a destination for connection. Guests gather over handcrafted cocktails, curated wines, and conversation in an atmosphere designed to encourage lingering a little longer.

With warm lighting, comfortable seating, and a thoughtfully crafted beverage program, The Junction offers an elevated, adult-only experience in the heart of Downtown Staunton.
