had so many options!! my husband and i went to the bruce springsteen concert on sunday and had so much fun i couldn’t even remember the name until i started looking on google maps lol! The staff is super friendly and we sang (and drank) all night! awesome place and you can calculate how much you’re spending kind of like a gas station pump!

I love this bar! They always have a great selection of beers and the staff is amazing. Every time I go, the staff is so kind and helpful and I enjoy trying new fun beers.

No food at this location. It's a pretty cool place to go for a variety of beer though. 50 different taps to pick from. You serve yourself. You get a card that you tap under the beer tap. It keeps track of you're ounces you consume and then you pay at the end. They had cool signs giving ideas to mix very taps and make a new flavor. I swear the Maple Waffle and the French toast stout was like breakfast in a glass. ♥️ So good! Plus it's part of the DORA.

Such a great concept! Self serve taps with so many options. Great spot to meet up with people or hang out before an event at Nationwide Arena!Would love if there was something like this in my area!

5 solo cups for $82 total is crazy expensive. Not sure if prices go up for a Hockey games and the Browns game but $16.40 per cup is insane. Especially since you serve yourself.

Such a great concept at a prime location! Stopped in with my parents who love different beer styles and a friend who prefers mixed drinks and they have it all! The wall is all priced per ounce so you can sample any of the taps, you could pay the price of a pint or so to sample 6 beers rather than $20+ for a flight! always a great selection and i love that it's not just beer. there's a liquor bar in the back and there's two hand-crafted cocktails on draft. if that doesn't float your boat, they also have a limited selection on wines, ciders, seltzers, and mead. Whether it's a busy day or non event day it's a great place to try whatever they brought on draft that week. The staff welcome you in and make sure you know what you're doing before sending you off to the wall. And they cycle the taps almost every week so there's always new stuff to try. My favorite thing right now is their Peach Tea MarTEAni which is one of the cocktails on draft!! I highly recommend giving it a try or even making this your next event venue with all the space they have! Can't wait to stop in before the next CBJ game!

Staff is super great and upbeat all the time! Drinks are always cold and unique. Also being able to bring your own food in is kinda fun.

We travelled to Columbus for the Leafs vs Blue Jackets game. We really wanted to check you out but you didn't have any food options so we left. Too bad really, but also understand that's how you run your business.

Great unique place to grab a drink before an Arena District event. Prices are a bit high, but the experience makes up for it. Just wish they had a food

He has such a great sense of humor and gave my son the best root beer he’s ever had! I highly recommend giving it a try or even making this your next event venue. Can’t wait to stop in before the next CBJ game!

Interesting concept. I tried a maple cranberry mead. It was tasty. Careful on your ounces. I just wanted a taste and my pour was $17.00. I was not offered a menu nor did I smell food. Not sure food is an option at Whistle & Keg.

Don’t go. They spray the stainless steel faucets with stainless steel cleaner (most likely very toxic). The two small pours of beer I tried tasted sweet from the chemicals from the cleaner. When confronting the the employee. I said “you guys should be more careful. We just watched an employee spray the faucets on the beer taps with stainless cleaner, that stuff is usually pretty toxic and both my beer samples tasted like it”. His response, “You are not wrong”. We were there maybe 10 minutes but left due to this and my lip and tongue going numb. This just happened 30 minutes ago.

Came here with a group for happy hour. Several of the beers on tap were flat, and prices were high. I politely asked for a refund for my flat beer and was refused. We're an easygoing group of people but we all agreed to blacklist this place from our happy hour list. There are other great bars in the area with tons of beers on draft, better prices, and will treat you well if you get a bad pour. So there's just no reason to come here.
