50 Best Bars near New Albany

“This Hall is such a wonderful place. The food was so good and the vendors were extremely friendly. The best thing to experience is the coffee flights, fried sushi and boba teas 🤗🥰! Family oriented with table games. Definitely making a trip back!“

“Lunch was yummy, service excellent. It was my first time there, but I’ll surely be back.“

“We hosted my wife’s birthday party at this location in April 26, and BrewDog did a great job! The event coordinator made everything seamless, the staff was prepared, attentive and really personable. The food was fresh and all the guests enjoyed it. Thanks BrewDog!“

“We had a great time. Beautiful location, excellent coffee, seriously delicious food, friendly staff. We’re here from Wheeling,WV, but will DEFINITELY make the trip back!“

“I have celiac disease and am very limited in places that I can go where I feel safe. I stumbled across someone raving about mellow mushroom and decided to look into it. Not only do they have a gluten free menu but they are well educated in cross contamination and but they also have a dedicated area for toppings and take proper precautions to make sure that no other people touch your food . Jamie, our waitress was amazing and was able to answer all of our questions and knew when and how to ask others for help. My husband and I will definitely be back.“

“Blue Agave Mexican Restaurant! Don Rolando el jefe de tortillas! .... this Chef makes fresh tortillas for his guest. He told me the story of how his grandma would make fresh tortillas and slide him one or two before dinner as a kid. He would add a little water and salt roll it into a ball and eat it before anyone would notice. This act of love and family traditions has now made it to your table. One of the best lunches I have had in a hot min. Thank you Don Rolando! Great patio too. #freshtortillas #mexicanfood #columbusohio“

“Had the best time at the downtown Columbus location last weekend for Valentine’s Day! Highly recommend, Kiiya and Savanna and crew made our night special. 10 out of 10, no notes!“

“Went to the Blu Note for the first time for my birthday in August. One of the waitresses was being trained by another waitress so we had two waitresses waiting on us (: and they did a great job!!! The live music was lively and the food was excellent , lamb chops were off the chain and the chicken wings were seasoned just right! They gave me complimentary New York Style Cheese Cake for my birthday as well ! In my Arnold Schwarzenegger impression “I’ll be back”.“

“Wonderful experience and great atmosphere“

“The perfect blend of great service and good times... This is exactly what a bar should be... And what Your new bar looks like...“

“Great place to spend time with friends. Friendly staff and creative drinks!“

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

“Great time gathering to send my boss off!! Small but very clean and great atmosphere!!The bartender was so nice and friendly! The crowd was fun as well and karaoke was a blast!!“

“Great spot with good vibes“

“Great place to hang out and have some fun“

“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 would like to see the bartenders to be able to control or at least have some type of control over patrons that come in they’re arguing and making threats to the person they’re arguing with. Last night there was two people in there and they were in the middle isles when you come closer to the front door. One of the two people that were arguing was making threats to the other person, saying that he will kill him. He will shoot him. The bartender does nothing at all nothing. The bartender called out the wrong person loudly thought that called the police. Police came in and everybody got quiet. Safety should be number one at all times if somebody’s gonna argue, making threats and threatens to shoot the person that they are arguing with in the bar be put out and or the police called . The bartender has a responsibility to the bar and protect the patrons. This did not happen, there should be some type of protocol in place that all the bartenders need to adhere to when something of this nature happens. There was also two killings last year at two close bars we don’t need to have it at The Rock!!!!“

“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!“

“Melanie and Andria are the best darn bar tenders I’ve ever met besides my cousin.
They make you feel as if you’re family.
All of my family is in another state 15 hours away and damn do I feel loved like I’m family when I visit cheers too and these two are working. This bar knows how and who to hire.“

“We had The GOAT New Albany booked for a birthday party, our guests were from all out of town. They ordered drinks and we placed our food order. Unfortunately, the power went out at the restaurant and they could no longer serve us. However, the manager called over to the GOAT Gahanna and they were able to accommodate our party. The two locations worked together to transfer our food orders to the other location so when we arrived our food would be ready! The staff welcomed our party, they were ready for us and our food came out perfectly for everyone! It was the best case scenario and we are so grateful for both locations for their accommodations during an unplanned situation. The gentleman server (I believe Shawn?) was very kind, attentive, and worked hard to get orders out quickly. Our food was delicious! This was service that went above and beyond during an unplanned situation!“

“Used to go here in the early '80s before I moved to Texas and continued to go when I when I moved back '86. Can't believe it's still around. Headin' there soon.“

“Friendly atmosphere and awesome bartenders“

“Great place Ben a few yrs“

“Great food, great pricing, really nice staff, very clean and fun with pool tables, bingo night…really couldn’t ask for more…“

“Love Grain + Grape! Great local shop with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Nice selection of craft beers and wine. My favorite place to pick up a bottle or two for the weekend.“

“I went last Wednesday for the first time.
Parking is not the best. The bartender was very nice. The chicken wings were great drinks are what you expect in a bar. There was a lady at the bar who helped me know what food was good and she was very friendly.
Will come back“

“amazing staff that are on top of things awesome karaoke and fantastic drink prices“

“Small place but fun! There's a pool table and karaoke on Fridays. The vibe is interesting, hard to pinpoint a "type" of patron that would frequent this place - which I really like. Pretty calm, clean, mature, and social, was the feeling I got. Could use more "saloon-themed" decor to match the name. Ample parking and convenient location. Would visit again!“

“I play in a pool league and cornerstone is my teams home bar. The food comes from Angie's pizza and I have always been satisfied with their food quality. The bar has reasonable prices and is fairly clean. The restrooms are decently clean and not run down. The pool tables are not the worst. Not the best. They're acceptable bar tables. I prefer this bar to most other ones we play at in the league. the main thing that separates this bar from a lot of other bars we play at is the bartender Carrie, her level of service and attention is phenomenal and I don't think there's another bartender in Gahanna I like nearly as much for the quality of service I get.“

“Definitely by far ABSOLUTELY the best wing's in the city! HOWEVER I let a friend try my wings when I got home and he was hooked and asked me how much they were and I couldn't tell him so we looked on the website and THERE IS NO MENU That shows food and prices. I believe they may be losing some business but not much but TIP TO THE BAR...POST YOUR MENU AND PRICES GUYS!!!“

“The Dolphin Lounge is keeping live blues relevant in Columbus. Please keep it up. I recently saw a negative review for the bar’s refusal to offer tap water to patrons. While that may seem like a turn off, it is not the bar’s nor the server’s fault. Public eating/drinking establishments can only lawfully offer tap water if it has been filtered. Instead of breaking the law and offering unfiltered tap water, the bar offers bottles of water. Hopefully, the reviewer just didn’t have all the facts.“

“Was able to eat and drink in the restaurant 2 nights in a row. The staff and chef is amazing. We normally stay at the hotel once a year and because of the restaurant experience this weekend we will now make this more than once a year event. I definitely recommend the Ribeye and the chef’s sides.“

“Mal(Thurs/Fri Bartender)besstttttttt Bartender in Columbus!! This girl has the PURE BEST POUR there is n town!!! Hands down!! I'm from DC and my family lives here by the 2nd time I made my way back 2 Mal she ALREADY remembered my name!!! If that isn't service then what is it!!? Mal is my girl and i will ALWAYS frequent her when I'm in town!!! Love you MAL!!!“

“Classics Sports Bar is an excellent spot to hang out with friends, grab a beer, and catch a game in a vibrant atmosphere. For those visiting from outside the United States, it offers a unique and authentic experience to see what a typical American sports bar is all about. Between the high-energy environment and the genuine local feel, it is the perfect destination for anyone looking to enjoy great entertainment and experience the culture firsthand.“

“First time here as a new resident of the Columbus area... Very friendly service. They don't have a kitchen, but are next to 'Donatos' and have a window that makes it super easy to order and get food from there. I came on a Monday night so it was pretty slow, looking forward to checking the place out on a busier “

“I don't know what I was expecting, but this wasn't it. Extremely crowded. The floor was covered in spilled drinks. Nowhere to sit or put a coat. The line at the bar was long. The music was so loud we couldn't hear anyone. There were three stalls in the women's room - one had no door at all, and one had a door that wouldn't close. You can't watch anyone ride the bull as it is hidden in the back corner. This place is a waste of time.“

“It is a sketchy but very inexpensive bar on the mid-east side of Columbus. The clientele like it because it is open as far as I know at 7am. We were there at 1030am enjoying a beer. It's not a place you take a date. But some friends when golf is rained out is ok to even good!“

“My husband ordered take-out a few days ago and included a slice of apple pie for me. I don't usually have room for dessert, so usually skip it, but this pie was the best I have had in YEARS!! HIGHLY recommend! Delicious, and that was the next day! :)“

“We needed a place to eat after OTHERWORLD and we found this on Google. Best decision ever. They provide free samples of yummy appetizers and the food itself was completely delicious. Very friendly owners and they treat you like family. I don’t like cheesecake majority of the time but tried theirs and it was also amazing. Spinach Dip, Mushroom Soup, Cheesecake and Burgers (lamb and beef) and the TEA were all phenomenal. 1000/10 recommend!“

“So much fun! Glad we had reservations so we had actual seats. I would hate to stand all night. Our server, Alexis, was phenomenal! Friendly, attentive, and when we asked for napkins bc of the condensation from our glasses causing our table to be wet, she went a step further and came back with a wet rag and cleaned our whole table!“

“Great long time hot spot in the area... They now have STEEL TIP !!! Dart boards and pool tables the karaoke isn't my thing but the friendly custys and singers were fun.... I highly recommend this place for a after dinner spot or even before and after a movie...“

“My favorite Columbus Bar!! Feels like home away from home. Safe, enjoyable, fun atmosphere.“

“I go to the spot all the time never a problem I only see problems with drunk patrons not following the rules then thinking they don't have to leave when told to.“

“El mejor restaurante mexicano“

“I always have a great time!“

“Great service and food many choices also“

“Dannies staff is just amazing and everybody around our town will tell you the same thing about to pull all if you’re new to Columbus and looking for a place to play check out Cushions guaranteed that this is the Pool hall you’re looking for.“

“Awesome people and great food highly recommend“
