“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 local bar with staff that make u feel like family. Go see my favorites Jess Wednesday n Friday night. and Joey Thursday n Sunday nights.“

“I love everything about this place. I see sometimes they struggle with consistency and I attribute that to it being short staffed and having such large volumes of orders. This place stays crazy busy in my opinion. But the food is so good. The wings are by the far the best I have had in town, even on their bad days. No matter what happens, lovells is always on the dinner menu atleast once a week. We are life long customers here in Reynoldsburg.“

“Friendly neighborhood bar with great service. Good place to watch your favorite sports with your friends.“

“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!“

“Krissy does a fab job! Love her love for growing the game.“

“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“

“With a Pizza and Mexican walk up food windows inside the bar. It may be the best bar in the area if you're wanting food. Service is phenomenal, the bar tenders take the time to talk with you and get to learn their customers. It's a very open place to hang out at. The alcohol selection is large and the workers are knowledgeable. It does stand very heavily as a Pub with a set up to match, it's not my kinda place but my girlfriend and her friends loved it.“

“Happy 4th anniversary! Fun night. Great crowd“

“Food was good, but they need to clean.“

“although tailored for smaller crowds, the atmosphere was great. My wife and I went for the sunday NY Strip special and the shrimp PoBoy. It was phonominal. Excellent steak cooked to perfectrion and the loded mash was superb. PoBoy was on point, and the drinks were great too! Highly recommended. Affordable!!“

“great neighborhood bar & wonderful staff.“

“Stopped in for a quick bite, before a show at the Shottenstein Center. Was drawn to a wide tap selection, menu, and good reviews. Overall great experience. Ordered at the bar and food was brought to our patio table. Potato wedges were probably the best I’ve had. Would recommend to anyone, and stop in again.“

“Just had their newest addition to the high quality menu. The generous portion could easily be a shareable for two or a great lunch tomorrow. Extremely tasty with the right balance of crumbles and b’fflo sauce. Great w/seasoned fries or house chips. Make sure to have a pint of the Kroenburg 1664 pints to wash it down. Oh and BTW, it’s a great deal. Won’t disappoint your palllet or your wallet! Enjoy.“

“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 place to have a gathering. We rented the atrium and were very happy with the overall service, friendliness of the staff. Could not have been any better. The fireplace made it extra special. Thanks again! We will be back“

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

“Ordered from the W. 3rd location lastnight. The food was great!! Fast delivery, food was hot on arrival and the price was good as well!! Definitely recommend!“

“One time I had a little too much fun here. Bartender politely cut me off and gave me coffee for free. He also made sure I had a ride home. I’ve only been here a few times but every time ive been the atmosphere was very lax and entertaining. If I were to start drinking again… I would be here every night. Amazing service!“

“Love this place, but really? Kitchen closes at 9pm during Ohio State and Notre Dame Championship game that started at 730. It’s 9pm, the house is packed, not an empty seat, not even halftime and the kitchen is closed. And they call themselves the number one place to watch the Buckeyes…kitchen would be opened if I ran this place.“

“Great food good service and ambiance.“

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

“Toledo ohio location, FOOD WAS GREAT, WAS MY ANNIVERSARY BUT THE SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE SEEN MY SERVER THREE TIMES, ONCE TO TAKE MY ORDER, NEXT WEN MY FOOD ARRIVES, AND LAST WEN I ASKED FOR THE BILL,NEVER GOT A REFILL FOR MY DRINKS AND WALKED PASSED NUMEROUS TIMES WITHOUT CHECKING“

“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.“

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

Mothers with small children and "old folks " like us (87 and 92)-THANKS RUSTY BUCKET for your delicious food hospitality sleep up the good work!?“

“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.“

“Great local venue! Great owners promoting area musicians“

“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.“

“Nice, friendly place- ideal for a hang out with a group of friends.“

“Great place to sit outside and watch the game!!“

“Everything was excellent! Our server was attentive and checked on us multiple times. I had the press burger, onion rings, and a cup of potato soup. The burger and onion rings were amazing! The soup was thinner than I expected, but the flavor was very good. I very much look forward to going again to try other menu options!“

“This place pours the strongest, most dangerously good Long Islands in town. The vibe at Char Bar is unbeatable—no frills, no fuss, just the perfect dive bar

Many people aren't aware that Abraham Lincoln spent the night there once many years ago! Historical!“

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

“We are from out of town and needed to feed 16 people after our original plan fell through. I called and spoke to Jeremy and he was quick to accommodate. I have to say the service was impeccable and so was the food. Every one of our orders was perfectly prepared and delicious. Our server ( I’m sorry i don’t remember her name, but I’m sure she knows who we are talking about) was amazing and professional and never missed a beat! I would highly recommend this establishment !! Thank you all so much ❤️“

“It's a lot smaller than I thought. The bartender was super friendly and served us fast. There's not much to do besides drink and hang out on the patio. There was a lot of riffraff in the parking lot. But I noticed that people were meeting in the parking lot. I had never seen them inside. Some guys were super rude, throwing candy at females and disrespecting them at the end of the night. We had to leave early because of the situation.“

“Barbie was amazing!! Definitely coming back!!!“

“They revamped and opened back up with a good menu and great food! great atmosphere, good people and service. New games and activities, arcade. I had a cheeseburger and fries, it was very good and worth every penny. definitely stop by for a drink or delicious food, friendly folks etc. It's becoming a favorite spot for us and a lot of work went into the kitchen and upgrades etc so dont be afraid to stop in. I dont work there, not family etc just leaving an honest review on the owner, the employees, food and atmosphere. 10 outta 10!“
