50 Best Pubs near Gahanna

“Good lighting at the bar for the nomad artist in me.“

“Large portions and good price!“

“What a gem! We stumbled upon this little brewpub one evening while looking for a spot to watch a college football game. The barkeep was super friendly, joked around with us and made us feel completely welcome. We never felt rushed -- and the game went into OT! Beer and food were tasty. It had a vibe like we were all hanging at someone's house, just chillin and watching football!

Vegetarian options: Veggie Salad“

“This is without a doubt - The Gem of Columbus.

Everything is perfect all the time here.

If I could buy this place and put it in a trust, only to ensure it would be preserved and remain unchanged throughout the generations, I would without hesitation.“

“Great location and patio. Awesome bartender!“

“This has got to be my favorite place EVER! Try the cheese dip and boxties and the chicken tenders are so tender and juicy. I'm not one to order chicken strips but these are exceptional with their sweet mustard dipping sauce. I bet you'll have a new favorite place too!“

“Our waiter Dylan was amazing the food was spectacular! The pork schnitzel was enough to feed two. . Great prices and terrific atmosphere! We look forward to coming again“

“I ALWAYS have the best experience here at Lovells. The food is ALWAYS good. The wings have become my personal favorite. Not only that though, Monday nights are my main night when I go in and the bartender Josh remembered me after 3 visits if that! I recently moved into the neighborhood and he has always made me feel
welcomed with service being exceptional. I appreciate the genuine attitude and demeanor he gives off. Will STAY coming back for food and especially the service I received every time I come here.“

“Everyone enjoyed their food, from salad to fish, sandwiches, and the quesadilla. All the homemade dressings and cuts of fries were amazing! 10/10. Our service was great, too!“

“very laid back community gathering spot. Bartenders are awesome. There is a sweet tattoo shop just a couple doors down called Burned Hearts.“

“If you are looking for a fancy place with a big menu full or fine dining foods and pinkies-out cocktails, this is not it.If you are looking for a corner bar where everyone knows each other by name, plays pool and darts together, shares pizza, and does shots until closing time, Twins is definitely worth checking out.“

“Great food good service and ambiance.“

“The place has a smell, like downtown Philly. That's the only reason I can't give it a 5. The food is simple food that's simply amazing. I had the pork sandwich fries and the side salad. Enjoyed every single bite (except the coleslaw).“

“CoHatch has been by far the best coworking community ive been a member of, the value you get with a membership is most excellent. for someone like myself that is a roaming worker, I never like to work the same place every day, cohatch is perfect as there are many locations.. not only that, but each location has its own vibe, its own decor, and personality.. Having local roasted espresso is another plus as i get craft coffee-shop quality espresso as much as i want.. the staff has been nothing less than fantastic in helping me find things, answer questions and the like, wifi is always nice n fast, all locations use the same credentials so its easy to get connected. each membership level includes 24x7 access which is perfect for the ikes of myself who tends to work at odd hours. it really feels more like hanging out in a trendy coffee shop than it does in an office.“

“A local pub with the same owners for over 30 years. Very friendly and easy to make friends. They are known for their subs. Also, has local bands and other events throughout the week. Great place to watch OSU football. If you have never been there, you are missing out on one of the best local bars in Columbus

Wheelchair accessibility: Flat level entrance. I have seen many wheelchair persons support this pub.“

“We are from Texas and had to visit Columbus for my husbands job. We came here for dinner this past Thursday evening and the service was amazing. I had a very cranky baby and several of the waitstaff offered to get her a variety of different things to make her happy. I really appreciated that. I ordered the fried pickles and the fish and shrimp. The pickles were SPEARS which made me very happy as I love me some fried pickles but I can’t get spears anywhere around here. The fish and shrimp were hot and fresh and so crispy. Beer was ice cold and I left fat and happy! Thanks again for being so kind and understanding with my baby girl!“

“Great owners and staff. Super friendly and great service!“

“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.“

“great neighborhood bar & wonderful staff.“

“We went there for my daughter's 18th birthday party and had a very great time

Parking: We went about 9:30 and found parking with no problem

Kid-friendliness: We took my 2-year-old granddaughter and she has fun

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair access to get to the door“

“My husband and I received fantastic food and service on 4/27. It's the little things, such as bringing addional sweet n low packets to the table without prompting, and making sure we had a second beverage before we finished the first glass, that separate decent servers from the excellent ones. Abby is definitely in the excellent category! Our burgers were prepared as requested and tasted delicious! We don't live nearby, however, we'll definitely make a point to visit again when we are in the area.“

“We came in from Cleveland, looking for a more "local" stop for a few drinks before the night started. Bartenders were super friendly and attentive, even the customers made the place very welcoming!“

“I've been going there for years love this spot, Friendly atmosphere“

“Favorite part of my Sunday routine is stopping in at Flanagan’s with my kiddo and ma for brunch. Service is always amazing, pub food is certainly pub food. You know you already know. Their pizzas and subs are on point. Spicy cheese curds are amazing. Salsa is always fresh. Excellent Rubens. A bowl of soup is a proper BOWL. Try the chili. Zach is our family favorite but everybody is always awesome at Flany’s! I tend to avoid the live music so I cannot speak to that, and no offense to the artists, I enjoy conversation with friends and that can get too loud to hear or be heard. They have a breakie menu, regular specials, and a smashing Irish coffee.“

“Great music and service. Eric poured some great drinks.“

“The people are awesome 💞 I highly recommend it 👌“

“Great place Ben a few yrs“

“awesome place. owner friendly and welcoming. he supports veterans!“

“We visited the Whitehall location and had an amazing time. Honestly probably the best service I’ve had in a long time. Our waitress, Gail, was so nice and personable. Food was great! We will be going back again soon.“

“The food was delicious! And the customer service was top-notch!! Cody was amazing and helped recommend drinks. I loved that he spoke highly of the team and said they could help with recommendations as well. Overall, a great experience!“

“Saturday nights can be busy, week nights are less crowded. Great drinks, bartenders do a great job of getting to everyone during busy times, and talking with the folks and making you feel at home during slower times. No frills bar, pool tables, darts, keno, pop a shot, golf game, large bar area, tables. Dj some nights, sports tvs. Good place to watch sports or meet friends.“

“server was fantastic...food was tasty...portions a tad small. overall positive experience“

“The buffet is great! I highly recommend!“

“We love this restaurant. The fried pickles are sooooo good.“

“upstairs is great for a private party. My son was playing guitar and keyboard. Great staff, very cool interior decor and great place all round.“

“Just had one of the best bacon cheeseburgers in my life at The Point on Main!!! Fantastic!! Fresh Cut fries were a bonus!!“

“Best food around. Everything is amazing ❣️“

“First time to visit with a member for the Irish Fest in July. Very hot day so spent a lot of time inside listening to live music and drinking Smithwicks. Did not try the bar food but there was a food truck nearby. Folks were very friendly and helpful. Good time.

Kid-friendliness: Though a bar inside, kids are absolutely welcomed and safe.“

“Cute place staff was nice. I wasn’t impressed with their signature sandwich, the HURON ST. MELT. We are not local so the group gave the common viewpoint that the food was “okay”. Fair pricing and the live entertainment was good.“

“I think of the St James Tavern as the best pub in Columbus. It has a large pool room at the back, which I do not use, but plenty do. It has a great Juke Box. The pub staff and clientele are extremely friendly, the beers are high quality and often changing (nearly all microbrews), and there are no flashy TVs. This is not a sports bar. This is a pub. The collection of liquors is very good too. Mostly it is the atmosphere I really like. Traditional pubs like this are disappearing all over the country, including Columbus. This one is a real treasure. If you want a quiet chat come earlier in the late afternoon or early evening. The parking is very easy then. By 10 pm is will be more crowded, noisier -- but it is always a positive crowd.“

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

“Love the staff and clientele! My home bar now! I walked in almost 4 years ago and stop in 5 times a week! ❤️“

“Stopped in for lunch today. First time here and didn't know whether to seat ourselves or wait (no signage). There was a young girl tending bar and she didn't say anything to us while we just stood there waiting (she only had one customer). Finally I walked over to the bar and asked her if we should seat ourselves, and she just "nodded yes". She did come over and take her order and she was friendly enough. Got a barbecue wrap which was very big, but very dry. Tasted like canned chicken. I only had a little bit of barbecue sauce on one side of the wrap. Had the chicken been tossed in it, it probably would have been better. Tater tots are very good. My husband got the pub and fries and said they both were good, although the pub sub had very little meat on it.“

“Stored in here because it looked like it had a chill vibe where I could catch up with family over a drink. Absolutely loved the Mac’s Mule. Serve Ryan was super nice. He recommended the Sauerkraut Balls & Scotch Eggs which were both out of this world! 100% will be coming back here. Awesome little spot.“

“Best wings we've ever had! Came here 4 years ago on a concert trip then came back for another concert and stayed at the same hotel so we could come next door to throw down on some wings and they didn't skip a beat! Probably better than the first time! Well played, Ohio/ Pastimes. Dallas salutes you!“

“stood there 25 min can't even get a drink unless your a regular, don't come here ever.. no stars“

“Great place to bring your friends and to meet new ones. Bar is huge and can get really packed on those weekend nights. Down side to that it can be a little over whelming to the bartenders. Bar prices and happy hour are friendly to your pocket as well. Talk about a bar based around friendships ?With a pool table, basketball game and foosball to get your competitive side roaring while you watch the Buckeyes.“

“Breckenridge peanut butter is a pretty great dark beer if you're looking for a savory drink. Hop valley bubble stash is good if you're looking for a sweet beer. The place looked pretty cool, it had a pool table and three dart boards. A great place if you're a student in OSU's college town area and want a place you can walk to.“
