“Had our Mom's Surprise 90th Birthday Party a few weeks ago! Fantastic! Everyone was so nice and accommodating. Venue was great! Thanks for making Mom's day special! Highly recommend!“

“the blonde bartender Kat will nickle and dime you $1.10 for a tomato on a sandwich. She's padding her register with your money while she's sneaking shots. Sad was a great place to go“

“"Be Nice To Each Other" -Sheila Ann SteuberHometown atmosphere with down to earth people. Relaxing and entertaining, known to many as the local Cheers! Everyone knows your name and are happy to see you! My mother loved this place and its owner until the day she died. May the wind always be at your back, may the sun always shine down upon your face, and may the wings of destiny carry you off to see the stars.“

“such a great little bar!! Mike the owner is always so nice and helpful. It's like one big family.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Owner is a great guy and they have great drink prices awesome pizza and amazing staff!! Highly recommend!!“

“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!“

“Karaoke is off the hook here.“

“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.“

“An oldy but a goodie in Grandview Heights, yes I know it is actually in Columbus. My daughter and I had potato skins which were excellent with cheese and bacon. I had the steak with bourbon sauce and steak fries and both were very good. My daughter had the cheeseburger and she is not a big meat eater but she loved it, I had a few bites and the burger was excellent. The two ladies at the bar and also waitressing had their hands full but provided great service. A few tables were getting their drink on so it made for a lively fun atmosphere.“
