“Who knew a little out-of-the-way bar hidden in Clintonville would have the absolute BEST italian subs I've ever had?! My mom and I have lunch together there every Friday and they know when we walk in that we're going to split a sub. Don't even have to order! And they are extremely reasonable price. Best deal in town!“

“Lived here 25 years. Started going to see good live bands and bluegrass. Small venue, great sound and great vibe. Room to spread out, do a little dance and immerse oneself into a plethora of local bad ass musicians who love what they do!
Must stop and pop one if you're rolling through town!“

“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. 😜 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

Johnnie's Glenn Avenue Bar & Grill Bar • $

“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.“

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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

Rehab Tavern Bar & Grill • $
456 W Town St #460, Columbus - 11.18 miles

“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 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.“

“My son and I stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. It had been years since we'd been, but we were hoping it was still as good as we'd remembered it was. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess/server who immediately took our drink orders, in our case water and water with a generous serving of lemon slices. We both ended up ordering a Red Door cheeseburger and split an order of what I consider to be the BEST onion rings on the planet. The burgers were cooked perfectly and juicy as they could be. Neither of us were disappointed. I took home half of my burger and my son finished every bit of his while we both polished off the onion rings. After years of not eating at the Red Door, we were absolutely thrilled with most recent visit. Highly recommend for a family, group, couple or a loner. Everyone is welcome.“
