Is it legal to carry a concealed handgun into a bar or restaurant in Virginia with a CHP?

Yes, but you cannot drink alcohol
No, it's illegal to carry in establishments serving alcohol
Yes, without any restrictions
Only during specific hours

The correct answer is: Yes, but you cannot drink alcohol

Answer According to Virginia law, concealed handgun permit holders are allowed to carry their firearm into a bar or restaurant as long as they do not consume any alcohol. This means that option A is the most accurate because it acknowledges the limitation on drinking while carrying a concealed handgun. The other options are incorrect because they either state it is illegal to carry in establishments serving alcohol (B), allow carrying without any restrictions (C), or suggest that carrying is only allowed during specific hours (D), which are all inaccurate according to Virginia law.
