We started off with pretzel bites, hot and delicious! Started off with cups of gumbo, perfect on a cold rainy day! Great soup loaded with shrimp, chicken and sausage.

“Trying for the first time last night. The young girl tending bar was fantastic. Right attitude great service. Mixed crowd range between early twenties to mid '40s. Nice size bar. Pool table and I believe I saw some dart boards in the back. Looking at it from the outside does not do it justice on the inside. Good place to give a try.“

“Timothy's is a University of Dayton mainstay, a bar that has been around since the mid 1960's. I visited here occasionally when I was a student and a recent trip to Dayton to see family and friends brought me back for a nostalgic reacquaintance.

Much has changed with Timothy's since my days of frequent visits in the 1980's. For one, the space is larger. There is a dog friendly patio out front and a second level, including a rooftop patio. The downstairs, on the other hand, looks similar to how it looked back in my college days. It's dark, with a good deal of space but still can get quite crowded on weekends.

Timothy's serves food, with pub grub like wings, pizza, Philly cheese steaks, and other items typical to this type of establishment. The happy hour prices are quite good, and they offer a few craft beers on tap, which I like. Televisions are usually tuned into sports, and if you visit during the less busy times of the week, the noise is moderate, so you can carry on a conversation with little trouble.

The overall cleanliness of Timothy's is an improvement from the past, but it still maintains a certain dive bar look and feel, which can be a turn off to some, but quite appealing to others. So, while much has changed, much has also stayed the same at Timothy's bar on Brown Street. It's a good stopover for a drink or lunch and the happy hour prices will easily help you overlook any of its flaws. I'm glad I took the time to get reacquainted with Timothy's, a University of Dayton bar scene institution.“

“Great place I recommend eating here! great service the food was some of the best!“
