“best 3 tier balcony for enjoying drinks and sunset. Got to love the indoor AND outdoor stage. too many great people and staff to mention. love this place“
“I spent a night going around to all the bars around uptown Athens and found that The Union is where all the queers and indie folks hang out (which is exactly my kind of place). Also, their bathroom has fancy toilet paper, like charmin or somethings. Love this place. Also the bartender rendell is very kind.“
“My wife went to school at Ohio University... and we were in town with 5 other friends for four days enjoying the local roads (on our motorcycles) and enjoying the town every afternoon and evening.
A very welcoming local bar with great bartenders and great drink choices at great prices. We visited several times over the four days we were there.
Definitely going to be repeat customers!“
“The food is fantastic for the price. As long as you're there before it becomes a college bar the atmosphere and service is good too.
But, the chefs are doing Gods work. You can get great food at a great price here.“
“The Crystal was a good bar to hang out in. They let you bring food in which is a big plus. We found a little loaf area where there was enough seating for a big group of people. There was Foosball and pool and some other games around. Crowded but not packed like the bar next door.“
“I HAVE ACHIEVED NIRVANA. And, lemme tell ya folks, I ain't takin' bout a Seattle grunge band...ya heard?I'm wildly speculating here, but Mel's is quite likely the proverbial oasis that Garth Brooks wanted to slip on down to. Moreover, there's an abundance of friends lounging at Mel's quaint tavern and outdoor veranda, but this ain't no low place, boy howdy.Get it together people. If you're gonna get drunk and wanna feel like a fresh daisy, pack up the family in the station wagon and fire on dahn to Mel's Roadhouse. You can thank me later.Sincerely,Matthew“
“If you're longing for a slice of your college days and a spot with fantastic vibes, Red Brick Tavern is the place to be! The cheap drinks are a real deal. It's the kind of spot that transports you back to those carefree moments, creating an instant sense of nostalgia.The real gem of our visit, however, was our bartender, Brandon. This guy is not just pouring drinks; he's crafting an experience. Brandon is a super funny guy who genuinely seems to love what he does. His enthusiasm is infectious, making the visit not just about the drinks but about the overall enjoyment of being in the moment.The place is a testament to the fact that a good bartender can elevate your entire experience. The drinks were great, but Brandon's charisma and passion for his craft made the evening memorable. Red Brick Tavern is more than a bar; it's a place where the staff adds that extra special touch to your night out.If you're in the mood for affordable drinks, a nostalgic ambiance, and the chance to be served by someone like Brandon, don't miss out on Red Brick Tavern. It's a hidden gem that brings a bit of college spirit to your night out. Cheers to Brandon and the Red Brick team for making our visit truly exceptional!“

“We held a private alumni event for The Singing Men of Ohio at The Side Bar last weekend and it was incredible. Not only was the staff so amazing to work with leading up to the event, but the price was unmatched and the space itself was perfect. The bartenders working that night were incredible as well. We fit about 150 people in the venue and it was completely private to our group. It provided for us an elevated event that was suitable for our alumni to interact with current members of the group. I have a feeling Side Bar will become really popular among students and alumni alike and be around for some time. All weekend, our alumni were commenting how much they loved the event at Sidebar and hoped we returned there. If you're looking for a great place for students and alumni to gather, check this place out. 15/10!“
