“Someone told me this place had the best Italian Sub in Columbus, and they weren't kidding – I tried it, and I'm officially hooked! Seriously, if you're in the neighborhood, this needs to be your go-to spot for an amazing sub. If you're on the other side of town, it's worth the journey at least once a month. Don't miss out! What really sealed the deal was the incredible atmosphere: the employees were genuinely nice and clearly passionate about their work. Even a couple of regulars were out in the 90-degree heat, cheerfully welcoming me in, mirroring the staff's enthusiasm. This might be a 'hole-in-the-wall,' but it's the kind of hidden gem Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives should feature this place.“

“Me and my friends experience was so nice in here! Such friendly vibes and great customer service! The bartender was so nice and explained so much to us and had such a great attitude! Such a vibe! 🫶🏻 The drink was amazing but this place should be called Full Baked because after a drink and a half I was gone. 😜 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“They don't sell food so I didn't rate them on that. This is an excellent, dark, small, sticky, homey, old, jazz club dive bar. Great music, lots of local history, cheep beer. Would recommend, but only if you are polite and like music.“

Johnnie's Glenn Avenue Grill Bar • $

“Great dive bar in an interesting location! They only take cash but all of the drinks are very affordable. Make sure to bring quarters to play pool. There's a touch tunes that was off when we arrived, but the bartender quickly fixed it for us. It smells a bit old and like cigarettes, but that's just part of the charm. The bathroom is surprisingly nice.“

“Had a great time at Mike's Grill. Brandon, our bar tender, was friendly, knowledgeable, and great under pressure. I know because after a few drinks, I put him to the test. He managed to serve to perfection every drink I ordered. Their selection of beer was admirable as well. Being from Texas, I asked the likelihood of getting a bottle of the national beer of Texas, a Lone Star, and lo and behold it was presented to me. Had a great time meeting young and old alike. Look forward to visiting again.“

“Easily the best bar on campus! My friends and I were so sad to see Toos go but Thr3es lived up to all our expectations. They have a free bus to pick you up (which is great when you live on the opposite side of campus lol) & a free party room with its own bar! We held a surprise party here for our roommate and it was so much fun & so easy to book the room. The staff is great & there’s always good drink deals!“

“I recently visited The Rack in Columbus with a group of friends, and we had a fantastic time! The place has a great, laid-back vibe that made for a perfect last spot out. We played pool and darts, and with three pool tables available, there was plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. The ceilings added a nice touch to the atmosphere! We also enjoyed a few drinks, and the service was friendly and efficient. Overall, it's a chill spot that's perfect for hanging out and having fun with friends Recommend!“

Nike Sports Lounge Lounges • $
2165 Hilliard Rome Rd, Hilliard - 7.46 miles

“Nike Sports Lounge is a joke, they literally let a 54 year old guy back in that punched me square in my face. Went there after work thinking I was completely safe, because he was "barred" and he was sitting 5 feet from me. They're Saying they petitioned to let him come back in. He was barred for only 60days apparently, double what they normally do she says🙄 Imagine if that was your daughter/sister etc.... Edit: I was completely sober that night, I came there after work to pick up my intoxicated friends, I remember everything and videotape doesn't lie.“

The vibe hits right as soon as you walk in – it’s cozy, chill, and has this cool mix of old-school charm with a modern feel.
