The Hidden Gem Music Club Bar •
507 Miamisburg Centerville Rd, Dayton

“This is the place to go to experience a variety of live music performances by local talent. I gave it four stars because the acoustics could be better. You might want to wear earplugs during some of the performances (not that the performances are bad; it's just that the sound bounces off the hard surfaces too much).

The Pizza Gem is now their in-house kitchen, and they have a wide selection of snacks to enjoy with your drink.“

“Steak Thyme is a hidden gem! I've known the family who owns this place for years and I'm kicking myself for not coming sooner. While they're famous for their cheesesteaks, they offer so much more. It's a fantastic sports bar with incredible food and service. We had a Bavarian pretzel that was the size of my head with two amazing dipping sauces, and we also tried fried banana peppers for the first time. They were incredible! Our server, Taner, was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. She made great recommendations, including the addictive banana peppers we funneled! I even had a chance to chat with one of the owners, Jake. Turns out I know his older sister! (Another incredible human being) It's a family-owned business with a great atmosphere and even better food. I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.“

“This is a laid back establishment. Cold beer and friendly staff. Honestly has a 'Cheers' feel to it. They make their own pizza's to order with about 4 ingredients available. They also have soft pretzels with cheese. I have been going to there for several years. During the week there are darts and people who come in after work to enjoy cocktails. They have a lot of steel dart boards, a soft tip board where you can 'play' against other bars via video and a pool table. On the weekends they have bands. I've seen many great musicians there!“

Drinks are nicely poured and a great value. They have $1 beers and shot specials daily if that’s your thing. Vegan burgers are beyond meat and always juicy and delicious ?

If you're worried about that side of town, the doors are locked. You have to have a card to get in or out. they do lots of functions whether it's Christmas birthdays Fourth of July or someone like me or my husband is fighting late stage cancer fundraisers. I couldn't think of a better place to go have a cocktail sit down and maybe make a new friend have sure made a lot of new friends there and it's a great place to run into people you haven't seen in a long time. I love that bar the people the owner top-of-the-line.“

“Whather celebrating a good day, or relief from a bad one. Shots found its way into heart along with it's streach in my time, and place in my life long ago. When I'd recently moved back from Cincinnati to be closer to my family. I'm much more of a 'hole-in-the-wall' kinda guy than a clubber. Here found good coffee, cold beer, and atmosphere built by friends. As well as a good friend in some of the best bartenders I've known outside of NY, & one a the few places I can still sit down, exhale, and destress to the sounds of laughter & Rock'n'Roll. -McCoy“

“I'm a regular. Very lively bar especially later at night say 11 and later. Lots of bikes in warm weather it's a good riding destination or stop. Drinks are good and the patio is nice for smoking or hanging outside. It's the only bar in BeaverCreek that at 10:00 pm on a weekday there may be 10 people and at 2:00 am there's 30+ people. Great down to earth folks but not a good place to display an attitude. Very fun joint“
