Me and my Fiancé were in the city for the weekend, stumbled into this bar because its small scale had a great charm compared to some of the college run bars on the street. The drinks were excellent, the prices were more than fair, and the service was quick. Would recommend stopping in around 1am, sing a song or two.

I frequented the Char Bar frequently in the mid 1960s. Always a good time there.

Great dive bar, one of my favorites in Columbus for darts and drinks with friends

Busy when I went both times. Relaxed atmosphere. Reasonably cost drinks

Char Bar is unpretentious and welcoming. Plenty of seating at the bar or in the side room. The Long Islands are king here. And the darts will always fly.

Bartenders were rude and stand offish to people of color. Didn't even care to check on us. Very hostile. Shorted us on our liquor. Though we paid full price.

Would drive out of my way for the vibe felt like it was just big enough to leave everything at the door and enjoy the night.

Char Bar in Columbus has a lively atmosphere and is a popular spot for a night out. However, it's crucial to be cautious. Make sure you only accept drinks directly from the bartenders. Avoid taking drinks from strangers to ensure your safety. Watch your drinks. If you need to use the restroom, it's best to go with a friend. Staying vigilant and looking out for each other can help ensure a fun and safe experience at Char Bar.

I don't really understand the high reviews. Service was good and my drink was made well but the place looks kinda gross inside. I understand it is just a dive bar but this was sorta scraping the bottom of the barrel. Only reason why we went was because they were the only bar open that was open late near my hotel on a monday night
Ain't no better spot on the block. Check out the bathrooms downstairs. Epic stanks.

Probably a cool dive bar but went for food and left. Adults just don’t want to fight through a crowd to order food and drinks and pay. No table service.

If you're looking for a great place to grab a cheap drink, play some pool/darts/golden tee, this is the place to go. This is your typical dive bar type atmosphere that doesn't disappoint.
