46 Best Cocktail Bars near Westerville

“Absolutely wonderful afternoon tea. Allison (sp??) was a wonderful server that was patient with all of us as this was our first time. Food was amazing. We will be returning again!“

“The food is delicious and the customer service is probably one of the best I’ve experienced.“

“Food is good, though it is the only place I know where you have to sit at a high top or a bar stool to get discounts on appetizes during happy hour. Not everyone can sit on a high seat.“

“Oh how could I NOT recommend?! From creative, always changing cocktails and mocktails, I can choose to drink or stay sober EASILY. There are SO MANY fun events here. From painting, poetry, music, karaoke, trivia, ect. It is a bar that can be completely family friendly if you have children. It's like walking into a magical place where you are immediately accepted and loved.“

“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!“

“A great place to watch a game! The beer was cold, plenty of TVs and I enjoyed the crowd! We had the wings and they were delicious! The service was fast and efficient. The staff seemed super happy and it showed! We also found Renie’s to be very clean! This will be my new hangout for Sunday football! A hidden gem!“

“Dueling Axes made for an awesome double date night! It was our first time throwing axes and knives but John gave us a great intro and coached us girls through it! He was hilarious and so approachable, willing to give more tips when I was struggling miserably LOL. We loved the variety of games, including a cornhole-style scoring game (1st to 21 or 51). The bar is very nice, and they serve an excellent peach mint mule- great work, Dan. We will definitely be going back!“

“Love this place. What a hidden gem. Tracked in down on a recommendation from a friend, and glad I did. Bohemian with a hip, homey vibe. If I lived in Columbus, this would be my hangout.“

“Such an interesting concept and even more thoughtfully executed. It really is a unique little bar that is built around a fun atmosphere for guests. The staff is also extremely nice and knowledgeable. I got an alcoholic slushies and got to sit next to a porthole I'm not sure many people get to say that's something they've experienced in their life so on experience alone 5/5 and once you add in that the drink I had was also immaculate I wish I could rate them higher ☺️“

“The ambiance of the pub is nice; things are kept clean and pleasant and the lighting is good. However, based on the name you may be under the impression that there is a DnD theme or a English / Irish / Scots influence. There is none. Rather, it's the most upscale you can get a hole in the wall bar to be before you'd end up scaring off the real down and out alcoholics and instead servicing yuppies who know to stop before a third shot. It's the nicest it can get before it transitions from dive to faux-dive.“

“Fantastic dishes. The quesadilla starter is phenomenal. The wild boar sloppy Joe and the octopus are really well prepared as well. Cannot go wrong!“

“My go-to for decompressing after a hard day at work, they have a wide variety of both alcoholic and nonalcoholic cocktails that tadre great and all the staff are very tolerant and understanding of all walks of life, making it a very inclusive space to be in“

“we drove 45 minutes to have dinner here! The food is delicious and on point. Staff were some of the nicest people you'll meet!!! we'll definitely be back!!! Thanks Step Out Columbus for the recommendation!!“

“Amazing service and staff. Love the setting.“

“Upper class Indian restaurant with classic dishes as well as interesting creations. You can tell that whoever is in charge is passionate about what they do.

There are so many things here that I would like to try, especially their desserts.

My server Chloe B was helpful and quite knowledgeable about the menu.“

“Explain, maybe i'm not sure.Burger is is amazing.You gotta put this in your mouth and the fishing chips.And my wife has is absolutely delicious.But the brussels sprout appetizer is spectacular also“

“We are from Kentucky and were in Columbus for a concert. I’ve always wanted to try a place that has been featured on Triple D, and this was the best decision ever! High Bank exceeded all expectations! We left with a full belly and A bottle of whiskey to remember them by. Food was incredible. Service was incredible. From now on, every trip to Columbus will include a stop at High Bank Distillery!“

“There was amazing service, it was fast and the waiter was amazing. They were pretty busy when we got here but got seated right away as well as our food was fast and tasted amazing. Definitely a favorite and will come agin“

“Just went on the distillery tour. It was super fun, chill, and I learned a lot. I would recommend this- we did the full bottling deal. Totally worth it. Jimmy, our tour guide, was a delight.

I had no idea this hidden little gem was tucked away there in Grandview. Check it out, you’ll love it.“

“We love coming here! They have great food, great margaritas, and the staff is wonderful. The service is very quick, but doesn't sacrifice quality meals. Great place for a family dinner or happy hour with friends. They brough back the margarita flight so you don't have to choose just one flavor to try!“

“Great food and karaoke Saturdays are so fun!! You have to have a Mezcal shot at casa mezcal lol!!“

“Garret was great! Recommend a Gran Classico and I loved it!“

“Not sure how this doesn't have five stars across the board. We drove from almost ten hours away and after scouring places to eat we decided to stop here. The crust is crisp, not soggy or tough with good flavor and thickness. You can't go wrong with fresh ingredients like the mozzarella and mushrooms (fresh not canned, wowee!) either. We also tried Gina's Gem and between the beautiful focaccia and the dip being creamy while also sweet with a small back burn to it, you really can't go wrong. The bar is a great place to sit, no spoilers, but the walls and shelves are filled with awesome and hilarious things that make good conversation. It's a shame this wonderful place is so far from home but we're hoping to make it a yearly tradition. Thanks for the great food, staff, and atmosphere!“

“We recently hosted a birthday dinner for my wife at The Avenue in Grandview with a party of ten, and the entire experience was flawless. From start to finish, the evening's pacing was perfectly executed, and our server was truly on top of every detail. The food was excellent—every one of our guests raved about their dishes. What truly elevated the night was the exceptional service from Manager Phoebe. She went out of her way to enhance our celebration, making us feel like family, and even generously covered one of our appetizers. Every guest loved the experience. Thank you to Phoebe and the entire Avenue team for making this birthday dinner so special and memorable. We absolutely can't wait to return!“

“The Open Mic hosted by Zach Whitney is a welcoming space. On July 3, they had hip hop, a magic act, several acoustic guitar sets and closed off with impressive piano performances by Matt Murphy and the Rambling House's Jeff Strong. The holiday potluck and overall supportive atmosphere make this a great spot to build your chops and play in front of an audience.“

“fresh rolls and good service“

“I bought 5 kg of tortillas for an event last Sunday and everyone love them !!
the best tortillas we ever had!! the texture was perfect
recommended 100%!! we will definitely buy from there from now on! and the location is so easy to find ! GOOD LUCK TORTILLAS LA REYNA !!“

“It’s the best cocktail bar in Grandview“

“Amazing fresh and spicy pizza, I had the chorizo pizza and my friend had the al Pastor both were very delicious but mine had some fresh jalapeño peppers that made an extraordinary experience for me. Not super spicy but it had a quick that I really enjoyed.“

“Great Bourbon and Great Food!“

“Fantastic food and service. Top notch - if your in Columbus this restaurant is a must.“

“Wonderful experience and great atmosphere“

“I really enjoy this place
Unfortunately someone stole my phone

iPhone 12 Pro Max
Blue glazed back with a lot of cracking on it as well as bottom back part of the phone has exposed components of the phone with a black plastic tab exposed
Screen protector has cracks and the screen saver is a picture of Pedro Pascal when he played in the movie gladiator two. Just to give a description

I reported the phone to the police with the address of the person who stole my phone which lives 2422 Meredith drive Columbus Ohio
Along with my phone carrier so they can change the SIM card lol it won’t work

So the person who stole the phone is dumb because they got a phone they can’t do nothing with
And it can continue to be tracked even with them turning my phone off

So I can see you moving 😂

Other than that bodega is still a good place to drink and eat I really love the staff working there and the help with seeing if someone turned in my phone. And Joey thanks man you rock.“

“I loved everything about this place, service was absolutely great! Food was so good everything was served so fresh! Drinks were amazing, restrooms were clean, the server was so helpful! I’ll definitely be going back, not too mention how affordable it was‼️🥰❤️“

“So cute! We hadn't ever seen a glow in dark mini golf so when we came on vacation we knew we had to. It is a little small of a course, but we love putt putt golf! Friendly staff and going to have to come back for a pizza that smelled delicious!“

“love this place Ciara is the best. touch tunes has all the hits.“

“On a whim we went to Hunan Lion tonight for dinner - it was excellent! Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and the food was very delicious. I honestly cannot wait until we go again, I want to try everything on the menu!“

“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“

“My husband and I recently visited Dos Hermanos (in Easton) for our weekly date night, and let me tell you, it was hands down the best Mexican food I’ve had in a long, long time. After living in Columbus for over 3 years (and searching high & low), I had come to the sad conclusion that there were no good authentic Mexican restaurants in thus city — that was, until I stepped foot into Dos Hermanos. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with hot chips and fresh, flavorful salsa that set the tone for the rest of our meal. The menu features a wide range of authentic Mexican dishes at reasonable prices. My husband and I tried the queso blanco, street tacos, Birria tacos, and churros. Each dish was flavourful, hot, and super fresh. My personal favorite were the Birria tacos — every bite was packed with the right balance of spices and tenderness. I am very picky when it comes to restaurants, especially Mexican, and let me tell you; if you like flavor (not just salt…), this is the place for you! The food wasn’t all that impressed us — the wait staff was equally fantastic. Our waitress, Megan, was an absolute superstar. She was attentive, friendly, and made our experience very enjoyable. The restaurant was clean, and well staffed— a true hidden gem. After our first visit, we couldn’t resist going back again (only 2 weeks later), and I’m happy to report that the experience was just as perfect as before. No doubt about it, Dos Hermanos deserves a solid 5 out of 5 stars. My search for a fantastic Mexican restaurant in Columbus is officially over! If you also have been tirelessly searching for a truly good Mexican restaurant, this is the place!“

“Fantastic food! Excellent service by Miss Kayla! Thanks fir a great dinner!“

“Wonderful experience and the food was delicious. Our waitress, McKenzie, was delightful and most helpful in giving us input on selection choices. We enjoyed the patio and our whole first experience here. Definitely will return.“

“Very cool little brewery, this was our second time, and not times we were not hungry, but still got an app. 1st time the chips with French onion dip, this time pretzels and beer cheese, bit pretty good. Want to stop in and actually eat sometime. Most important, the bartenders are knowledgeable about craft beers, like it used to be before there was a brewery on every corner. Nothing worse that asking someone pouring at a brewery a question, and getting a reply of “I don’t know, I only drink White Claw or Busch Light” That won’t happen here……great job!“

“MOUTHWATERING. HOMEMADE AND AUTHENTIC. HIGHLY RECOMMEND“

“Excellent Lunch buffet, and food quality on menu also excellent“

“My waiter was super fast and very nice. Food was delicious!“

“We were looking for a special dinner that would accommodate our group. First of all, the drinks were phenomenal and innovative. Kudos to the chef for curating a vegan dish that was truly unique and incredibly delicious. Also, the service was above and beyond! David, Cassidy and Grace were all super accommodating and kind. Everyone in Columbus - this place is so worth the visit! Don’t miss out 💕

P.S. - the Oaxacan 75 is one of the most well-rounded cocktails I’ve ever had! Couldn’t recommend it more!“
