“Great dive bar, very welcoming and warm. Covered patio with a heated section! One of the gals made me an amazing margarita for only $3.50! Nice, clean bathroom. Simple, good food too.

I'd say overall one of the best dive bars I've been to!“

“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.“

“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. 😜 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My best friend visited, and we stayed in a hotel .5 miles from Mugsy's. Never been there, but wanted something close to shoot a game of pool. I liked its simplicity! Had all the basics: music station, pool tables, darts, patio...and nicely spaced out so you don't feel crammed in. Very chill, nice medley of people. Bartenders are very kind. Only downside was the mixed drink I ordered, which tasted terrible. Everything else was great. Food next door (of which you can order in the bar) was FANTASTIC. I ordered wings and fries--some of the best I've ever had.“

Busch Light a La Camo Koozie

“If you want a place where you and your friends can go out, have reasonably priced drinks, be in a lively environment with some characters, and actually hear each other speak without massive TVs plastered on every wall, this is your spot. Some friends and I were in town for a Blue Jackets game a few weeks back, and we found ourselves coming back here each night we were there. Good times.“

Char Bar Bar • $
439 N High St, Columbus - 10.63 miles

“Walking around the convention center area on a Wednesday 9:30pm (no NHL game night) and, while a couple of places already had chairs piled up on tables, the Char Bar bar area was packed and high energy. I had in mind the place caught up on fire, thus the name, but it actually had a drunk driver just crashing into the bar and damaging everything. Now became a story to tell (nobody hurt) and a picturesque place in town.“

Threes Above High Bar • $

“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!“

Johnnie's Glenn Avenue Grill Bar • $
1491 Glenn Ave, Columbus - 8.37 miles

“Johnnie’s Glenn Avenue Grill stands as a true classic among Columbus dive bars, blending small-town charm with a sense of history. Its walls are packed with oddball memorabilia, dusty old bottles, and bowls of free snacks that give the space a cozy, familiar feel. With its no-frills atmosphere and undeniable character, this Grandview spot is a rare find worth seeking out.“

“Just a straight up fantastic dive dream. Beers, bands and badazzz awesome people all the time. As Columbus is rapidly loosing it's edge becoming an almost YouTuber rich kid "establishment" overpolished bowl of glitter-vom, places like these keep it no-nonsense and I love it! Bar staff is always awesome, crowds are good, drinks are cheap!“

Rehab Tavern Bar & Grill • $

“Rehab Tavern in Columbus is just an awesome spot to kick back and have a good time. 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. The staff is super friendly, too; they make you feel right at home and are always happy to help with drink recommendations or just chat for a bit.

Speaking of drinks, they’ve got a fantastic selection! From craft beers to unique cocktails, there’s something for everyone, and the bartenders seriously know their stuff. Plus, the live music nights are a blast. They bring in some great local talent, and it really adds a fun, energetic feel to the place.

Overall, Rehab Tavern is just a great, laid-back spot to hang with friends or meet new people. It’s the kind of bar that makes you want to come back, whether you're from around here or just in town for a visit. If you're looking for a place with good drinks, good vibes, and a friendly crowd, this is it!“

Nike Sports Lounge Lounges • $

“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.“

“I found myself in Grandview and decided to try this place - I lived around here years ago so it's probably been 15-20 years since I've eaten here. I remembered the burgers being bomb, and today I can say it still was!!!! I ordered a plain burger with cheese and fries Medium and it was thick and juicy with good flavor! As for the rest.....I walked in and sat at the bar at least 10 mins before anyone showed up. I almost walked out but wqs engaged in a phone call that distracted me. The bartender/server wasn't very nice when she arrived, not even a my bad. After ordering i never saw her again until about 20 mins AFTER I was done eating. You can also tell its dirty. Yes the bar is old but i have 0 doubt they have bugs here. It is what it is. Excellent burger though!“
