24 Best Brewpubs near Gahanna

“I almost don’t want to review since I consider this place a hidden gem and kinda wanna keep it quiet 🤫. Ha. But I think the word is out. Pretty good crowd last night. Great live music! (Irish Road…don’t let the name fool you. Not Irish music. Great 2 person cover band with an occasional original thrown in 👍🏻). Great drinks (beer and cocktails). And the most amazing view of sunset/downtown with an occasional plane coming in for a landing. So cool. It is our favorite place on a nice night.“

“Went in for a couple of drinks. The bartender was very helpful. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I didn’t order food, so can’t comment on that. I think this would be a great place for groups of friends having food, drinks, and a good time. I can’t remember if they had one, but touchtunes is always needed in any bar for the music and atmosphere. Maybe add some TVs.“

“Love this place! My wife and I have been here twice now and it's been great both time. The beers are tasty and the bartender is amazing. Haven't eaten here but one day we will. Those jumbo pretzels looked amazing! We'll be back again!“

“Great beer, great food, great people.“

“I always have a great time!“

“Mad Moon is a rare gem in what can be a sea of mediocre cider joints. Amazingly friendly staff, excellent ciders, and an awesome Cuban food truck out front all work in concert to make Mad Moon a hit. Do yourself a favor and stop by. You will not regret it!!“

“Great food Great beer Great service Will definitely be back🍻“

“Great beer. Note there is a very high 5% service charge for a credit card. While this is noted at the bottom of the FOOD menu, you may not know this if only ordering beer. Staff does not warn you, which is very underhanded. Shame on you.“

“Great atmosphere and drinks!!!“

“Paid $80 for an uber eats order of wings and fish and chips. Ordered extra blue cheese and extra tarter sauce. Both things central to our meal...didn't get any sauce. This is extremely annoying and frankly I'm absolutely sick and tired of basic things like this getting missed on orders. The meal is literally ruined over something so minor...do better.

Edit. While I'm keeping the above message intact, the original "service" 1 star review really was an angry culmination of repeated order delivery errors from a multitude of resturants, not just Barelys. In fact, we still ate our meal the next day (with newly acquired sauces) and I have to admit the food was awesome. Additionally, we received a very friendly and prompt response from Jason the GM who graciously accepted the feedback and pledged to spread my frustration, so it's only right to update the service to 5. Mistakes happen, and yes I was angry, but their immediate and professional response deserves a rescore. We will be giving Barleys another go and I'm confident my future review with be 5 stars across the board, from the start.“

“I really enjoy how they have so many local draft options and the burgers are my go-to. Service is always amazing, the two I have worked with most are Maria and Chayni, and they are always wonderful. Everyone else I have worked with is amazing as well. I think it could benefit from having the lights dimmed or turned off for a better vibe in some areas“

“We just had the best beet salads with amazing dressing. You can’t go wrong adding the smoked salmon or prosciutto. Absolutely amazing!!“

“They have great beer, great wine and a great atmosphere.“

“No matter who is pouring you know you’re in for a real good time at 2 Tones. Always coming up with delicious innovative craft brews. You will want to keep coming back. You can even take some cans home with you.“

“Best sours i have ever had“

“A laid back place with good service and even better biers🥰“

“I ordered the vegan chicken melt, it was really good, they source their seitan from Seitan’s Realm which is plus. They have several vegan options and the restaurant itself is nice and good for a casual meal or dinner. I thought it was definitely on the pricier size for the portion, but I’m pretty sure they include tips in the menu price. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-20“

“Great location to grab some food, beers and hang with friends“

“I asked for a table with armrests for my shoulder pain and they went and switched the leather chairs in the waiting area to a table by the patio. I was stunned and we enjoyed a great meal.“

“Everything about this place was fantastic! Best poutine I’ve ever had. The bartender was very friendly and helpful with all our questions. Husband got the rock filet and was highly impressed. 10/10 would recommend.“

“beautiful venue 😍 the nostalgia feeling is fantastic. large open spaces with incredible windows and outside patio access 👌“

“Great food, friendly people! Very fun!“

“Excellent service! Jake was tending the bar and he was super nice. Food was great! The pimento cauliflower dip is amazing as was the double pepperoni pizza. I had Shred Lord and Kadö - both were great. Highly recommend!“

“We had our rehearsal dinner at BrewDog in New Albany, and overall it was a great experience. The food and service on the day of the event were both excellent, and everything went smoothly for our group, which made for a really fun and relaxed evening before the wedding.

Mara was very helpful during the booking and planning process and was great to work with. However, communication was sometimes a bit slow, and responses could take a couple of weeks, with no automatic out-of-office reply when she was unavailable, which made planning a little harder at times.

Despite that, the actual event itself went very well, and the staff delivered great service and food that our guests really enjoyed. We were happy with how the rehearsal dinner turned out and appreciated being able to celebrate with our friends and family in such a fun setting.“
