Velocity 5 opened its first set of doors in Falls Church in March 2008. As the restaurant's popularity grew, it soon opened up locations in Potomac Falls (taking over my old stomping ground the Fox Chase Tavern), Arlington and Centreville. Both the Washington Post and the Washington Business Journal tout about the delicious cuisine and flair of the Velocity 5 restaurant. The family-friendly establishment ranked among the top 5 finalist in the Franchise Edge "America's Top New Franchise" list. It has also been home to numerous community-centric events including Redskins Radio and WJFK 106.7 The Fan. Velocity 5 opened its doors in the Lansdowne area in May 2011.

Velocity 5 Lansdowne is located at 19286 Promenade Dr. in Leesburg, also known as the former home of the once popular restaurant and bar The Dock. Velocity 5 Lansdowne is open seven days a week, from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Visit the Velocity 5 website for more information.
