We've been at Dempsey's twice now. Once before an event at Southern Theatre and once before an event at the Jury Room. Easy walking access to both and if you're attending something at Columbus Commons. We're had the mushroom soup (really good) and small salads, again really solid. This time my husband ordered the mushroom burger, decent but a little small. I ordered the Reuben on sourdough- quite large and really tasty. We both had sides if tots - super crisp and well seasoned. Service has been super friendly and timely on both visits. The location itself has a lot of personality with an old wooden bar, exposed brick walls, and sports - legal theme. Definitely give it a try!

C'MON CITY!!! Visited for the Man City, Chelsea match!! Loved every minute of it. Seems like a great place to watch the EPL. Drinks were dirt cheap (or everything we ordered didn't make the tab) and the food was pretty good too!!

This place is what you expect from a downtown irish pub. Great bar area with a nice selection of beers and cocktails served by very attentive bartenders. They have a very good menu offering a wide selection of traditional foods, not to mention one of the best Reubens you can enjoy in CBus.

If you like sweet potato fries.... This is THE place to go! I personally don't think there are any better in Columbus. They appear hand cut, taste super fresh and I dont know how they get them the perfect crispness without any burning. Ive had them multiple times and they never ever disappoint. Today I also ordered the mushroom swiss burger. It was to be medium-rare. I bit into it and realized It arrived well done. What was weird is I tasted zero mushrooms. So I looked at it. Saw no mushrokms then realized... ah ha -The mushrooms were hidden under the cheese. There were 4 1/2 mushrooms. For a burger that costs $15 that was a huge disappointment.... More disappointing than the over cooked patty-- which I didnt complain about it, as it was packed and Demseys had one cook and one super nice and attentive server/bartender working the entire space-so two ppl handling over 14 parties of 2-4 ppl... with take out orders popping in constantly.... I decided to let it slide. However, next time I will ask for more mushrooms... (you might want to follow my lead on that one! It really should of had more mushrooms... for sure). The burger was the only reason it got four stars. The sweet potato fries are ten stars out of five. Sooooo good. Now the ambiance! This is what a downtown Irish bar should be. Long dining room with a bar that runs half the length. Dim lit. Brick walls with pictures of politicians that have probably come in at one time or another. Great wood bar, stocked with lots of Irish whiskeys and Guinness. Dempseys is a bar I will continue to go back to...

Dempsey's has literally been saved in my Yelp as a place I wanted to try for 13yrs! I FINALLY went the other day. I am now disappointed in myself for not having tried it sooner. The atmosphere was everything you want from a local dive bar. Beautiful, antique wooden bar, quiet and a little dark, simple decor. The food was amaaaaaaaaazibg. Get the sweet potato poutine and thank me later. Service left nothing lacking. A great experience. This place is now added to my list of off the beaten path places that are my favorite! Very authentic, old school Columbus vibe. They are becoming more and more difficult to find.

Had kind of a weird experience here with one of the male bartenders. He was nice and then super rude and then it was like he checked himself and was nice again? I thought it was something I did/said but I simply ordered a drink and my food without pickles. But the same thing happened the next time I went back with the same bartender. Don't know what to make of that. Definitely Irish pub vibes. I'd still go back.
