The highlight for me was all of the other free games they have here which I spent as much time doing as I did bowling. Great location and atmosphere. Like everyone else mentioned they don't have food but I did notice they do have a food truck that parks behind the place, not sure if it is there everyday though.“

“To take Century Bar from the top class whiskey bar, that didn't cut corners, that has genuinely put in thought to their menu, used fresh ingredients, and the swanky atmosphere... to this? Absolute travesty and it's a slap in the face to everyone that has owned or valued this bar for what it was. A part of Dayton history. The favorite old fashioned is made with syrup now and no longer sugar cubes. The favored whiskey sour? no longer made with egg whites and knock off cherries. So very sad to see another great piece of what makes Dayton unique, squandered to this piece of crap. You should be disappointed.“

Love how it all stuck to the food. My waitress (Alisha R) was great. She took time to explain the difference in sauces and constantly checked on me to make sure I was ok. She made my experience amazing, and she deserves a raise! Hands down the best seafood I've had.“

“Just stopped in for a couple beers (no draft here) while on vacation. Chill spot to have a drink or two. Don't think they have any food options, I didn't ask. Would be 5 stars but one drunk guy at the bar seemed like he was a regular and if given another drink or two and he may have ended up in an altercation. But hell, I'd watch the fight and cheers them both afterwards and buy them a beer for the show. Most people there kept to themselves. Oh, and they have darts and music.“

On their inside, the selection of bourbon, specialty beers are like none other. The food on the inside, 😋 they have specials plus the staples, what ever you get it will be good. So the only negative,, I wish they would open more than they do weekly .

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.

This is local chill bar. The kind you walk to and walk home from. The kind of bar that you can get to know the regulars pretty quickly. I came in around 5 to ask some questions and the people at the bar immediately started chatting with me.

Parking is not the best but manageable.

Great down to earth folks but not a good place to display an attitude. Very fun joint“

“So the past few times I've went there every bartender was great until tonight I encountered Jenn who was horrible. She was doing shots all night and every time we needed a drink we had to wait forever and it wasn't that busy and she had to keep asking the order back two and three times again. I don't know if she was drunk or high or what but couldn't get it together. Besides that some other overserved customers came in and started screaming about their phone while me and my friend where there enjoying our time and she got in my face and threw my friends phone in the trash and snached our drinks from us. Being a bartender myself she was totally out of line and a I gave her grave at first but after that makes me second guess coming back if she's there.“
