We always have a wonderful time at Dempsey’s! The brunch is so good! Classic Irish pub with a family feel, very welcoming and a Columbus staple. Heavy soccer bar! Cool back space and basement for events. Always bring out of town friends here!

Pleasant Irish bar in southern downtown Columbus. We were staying at Westin next door, and snagged some food and drink. Nice vibe and friendly bartender.

Will say they were out of a lot of menu items and had a little mishap on the food order, but still a solid choice as stuff happens.

We enjoyed a dinner at Dempsey's before a show at the Southern Theater. They do not have an extensive menu but the traditional fair is excellent. Each of our party ordered a different plate or sandwich and everyone reported theirs was excellent .
