Black Hat

The majestic Dylan with the luscious beard is the best bartender in Dublin. The bodacious "Bekah" (aka Rebekah) is ALSO the best. They are the only two bartenders that I allow to pour my adult beverages.

Cheap drinks. Laid-back bar staff. Non-judgemental atmosphere. Snacks (popcorn, hot dogs, sometimes nachos). Couches. Darts. Big 'ole TVs. Grab a couple Crunk Bombs, fire-up Touch Tunes, get on a pool table & have a sweet time! There's also a guy who helps clean up around there. Totally blanking on the name. But he's one of those dude's that you feel compelled to tell people about. Funny stories, hilarious jokes. Always remembers you. Guy is a key component of the whole aura that place has created! Perfect dive bar for a few friends to hangout at all night.

Dillon is a great bartender! Decent drafts & they have my fave Strongbow!

Very friendly staff, two pool tables, patio, free hotdogs, and a stage that could only fit a drumset. I was here during happy hour with a few co-workers and we had a blast. They have free pool Monday nights, and very reasonable drink prices.

This establishment is absolutely appalling and outright discriminatory. I visited with a colleague who was briefly back from deployment in Iraq. We simply had a conversation at the bar about the conflict in Israel. The next day, after he returned overseas, I went back to this bar, where I've been a regular customer for years. Upon arrival, I was met with the most shocking behavior from the bartender, Dylan--someone I've never had any issue with before. He suddenly informed me, in the most rude, aggressive, and downright hostile manner, that I was no longer welcome. I've traveled to over 60 countries, and I can confidently say that Dylan is one of the most unprofessional and vile individuals I've ever encountered.This was clearly a discriminatory act against a loyal, near-daily customer who is a well-known businessman in the area and has consistently supported this establishment, recommending it and bringing others here over the years. The fact that this kind of aggressive and violent behavior is tolerated is unacceptable. Dylan's actions were beyond shocking--he is a disgrace and should be immediately fired. This is not just poor service; it's completely unacceptable and dangerous. I urge everyone to avoid this place at all costs. Their behavior is not just shameful, it's a serious issue that needs to be addressed. Shameful business. A Better Business Bureau complaint has been filed and will submit the complaint to the Ohio Attorney General's office if no resolution or apology is discussed in a timely manner.

Good luck trying to get a drink at this bar after midnight. The principle bartender shuts things down officially with last call at 1:15, but stops serving well before that.Edit 18FEB24: same bartender (Dillon) is a thief. The guy got drunk on shift, at least I hope he was drunk, picked up the cash I put out for my next drink and said "this is mine now and you're cut off. You know you deserve it". There were some pretty intoxicated people in the same seats earlier who he had obviously overserved since one of them fell out of their chair, but that wasn't me, I was on my third drink. The bar back pulled my cash back out of the tip jar and apologized for his behavior but this guy has a problem.

I was overcharged by Black Hat by $40 and tried to call several times. I also went by there twice to soeak to someone and they made the excuse that the computer system has a glitch; howver, noone offered to give me my money back. Noone ever called me back. It happened to me another time there, but I gave them a second chance thinking maybe they charged me for my friend's drink. I woould have gone back, if they made it right, but I am not going back now.

Tuesday nights for karaoke are the best! The DJ is so much fun and approachable and bartenders pour nicely

Depending on who is there depends on the service that you receive from Dillon (bartender/manager). He is rude and shows a lot of favoritism while waiting to get drinks. He bases his service on the friends there and who trying to impress. Find a night that Dillon is not working and will enjoy yourself. Owners need to check with the patrons and they would see that Dillon is hurting their business.

Myself and my coworkers had the worst experience at this bar. The first time we went was not as bad. But the bartender was a belligerent drunk both times. Last night when we were there he was too drunk to work. He yelled at everyone and kicked everyone out of the bar before it was even 2 o clock. He also called last call around 1:45 and immediately after calling last call refused to serve drinks to anyone. One of my coworkers was refused drinks for personal reasons. And another pair of my coworkers never got the drinks they ordered. And when they asked about the drink the bartender told them they weren't getting them. They weren't even served one drink. I do suggest opening a tab at this bar though. Because the bartender is too drunk to remember to ring in drinks so a lot of them go unpaid for. I definitely won't be returning unless there is a different bartender.
