I started coming on Thursdays with friends for trivia and this place quickly became a main stay for us. Greatly priced drinks and food, amazing bartenders who get to know you, and an inviting atmosphere. As far as dive bars go, I am very happy with this place and would highly recommend!

Stopped in today with some friends and was met with a very generous and understanding bartender who handled our big group rolling in right after opening with ease. We’ll be back next time we’re in Columbus!

Small joint but outstanding, friendly service. (Review made on a weekend when college children were not present at all).

Great dive bar. It is near campus but at least in the early afternoon doesn't feel like the usual campus bar. Pricing is dirt cheap. They do food in the super old-school way in that it is cooked by the bartenders right behind the bar.

Their blackened chicken sandwich was delicious. Their bartenders are extremely friendly and approachable! We watched the celtics game and had a blast.
