McClellan's Pub

Nice bar with a cool atmosphere. We came here because they have a large variety of drinks, and they have whiskey that is hard to find anywhere else.We had the Pretzel Charcuterie and the Jumbo Wings with Bourbon Glaze. The wings were very good and I did enjoy the Bourbon glaze flavor.

This pub had recommended to me a few times, so we went for a half off fish & chips Wednesday. So impressed! We went early (it's popular so gets busy!) Friendly service (despite it being busy and only having a couple people waiting tables). The pub itself is clean, has a lot of tables, and isn't too loud. Plus if you're a Liverpool fan: it's the local L'pool supporter pub.The fish and chips are SO good - legit probably the best in Columbus! My Mr. is British so we know a good fish and chips. Yes, technically, the chips aren't "proper chips" (which are more like steak fries) but these fries are super good. The fish comes as two large pieces, perfectly fried. The tartar sauce is delicious and the coleslaw crispy and not creamy (yay, a plus for me). Can't beat the half price fish on Wednesdays, but it's worth every penny of full price.I would highly recommend McClellan's and especially their fish and chips! Only disappointment for me was they were out of bread pudding for dessert. I hope they have it next time. (Sorry I forgot a photo - I was too hungry!)

A comfortable place with good service but I just don't like the food. It has no taste. It's just fried. For most people, that's enough. I went to dinner with several friends and I ordered the fish and chips. Mine was not ready when the other orders were so our server brought me out an order of Irish Egg Rolls (free). Most restaurants would not have done that and I appreciate that. They didn't have much taste, though - just tasted fried. My order eventually came. It was a nice big portion of fish and it was good fried fish. The fries were kind of soggy or at least not crisp. The cole slaw was sweet, the thousand island was sweet and even the tartar sauce was sweet.

So we I have been here a few more times, and brought some company. The wins are still the appetizers I had before (Irish egg roll, Reuben balls, sliders). The sliders were good. Their whiskey selection is solid. This time we all did fish and chips, and beers. First a Guinness - good pours. Then a porter, and the glass had the bubble trails that indicate it wasn't the cleanest glass. We did the pretzel charcuterie, and it was just okay - the pretzel was chewy, but the accoutrements were decent (even though it felt like a Trader Joe's special). The dips also were tasty - although the cheese had that "I've been sitting for a bit" skin on top. The fish and chips:Because my friend is an asshole, he whined that "the chips aren't chips - they should be steak fries!" We didn't care - they're natural cut fries, the kind that taste great with malt vinegar. The fish itself - a little bready, but a bit greasy. These get all the rant and raving online around lent, so maybe it is "too early" to get a decent batch, because it really doesn't deserve the hype. Service was spot on - it wasn't too busy, literally just the bartender, and she kept the food coming and the drinks poured, and never let us feel unattended. So the four stars is a bit iffy - I have had better late lunches there, so I want to try the fish and chips again, the service and whiskey selection is top, and their other items have been really good. So take a gamble - it'll either be "okay" or "really good" and nowadays I like those odds.

Loved the easy going atmosphere of this place! Nice on tap beer selection and a million bourbons. Forgot the picture but they have a delicious wedge salad. Wings are good. The best part is the relaxing atmosphere and the super friendly owner, Amy. We were here for an OSU game and it was just the right amount of game day spirit.Word is, this is the place to watch football, as in soccer! We have not made it in for a game yet, but it is certainly on our list to do

Food was so good and service was great! We got the spinach and artichoke dip and it was huge and came with several things to dip! Then I got the pick two with a grilled cheese and wedge salad! Huge portions! Would absolutely get again!!! Great vibe and lots of drinks to pick from!

We live nearby and received a flyer advertising McClellan's but had never tried it. The Wednesday special 1/2 price fish and chips grabbed our attention. The establishment is located at the end of a strip mall. I do not know the pub's history but the sign on the building has seen better days.When we entered, we were greeted by a solid wall forcing me to turn right followed by a left a few feet later. I'm not sure if this entrance would accommodate a wheelchair. Then the seating. There are old church pews along 2 walls with high top tables. If you are petite like me, do NOT sit there. To get over the arms of the pew- the high top table is pushed too far away to eat. But when my hubby pulled the table up, the table inconveniently rested right at my boobs. I felt like I was 6. Probably great for drinks but if you are there for a meal and you are short- avoid the pews and sit at a high top table where the height is betterThe good news is, I'm done complaining. Service was attentive. The bar tender enthusiastically described menu options, favorite and popular items. Hubs ordered the fish and chips. Two large pieces of cod, lightly battered and deep fried. Serviced with house made fresh cut fries, house slaw and tater sauce. The slaw was less mayo based and more vinegar and oil. I really like it. Hubs had a bad experience 10 years ago and won't touch slaw ever again. The fresh cut fries were fantastic! Perfectly fried, lightly salted and abundant. The picture was taken when about 25% of the meal remained because we both dug in as soon as the food was delivered. LOL!I believe the price was $17 for the fish and chips. We went on Wednesday and enjoyed the meal for only $8.I ordered the farm chicken salad. Also a very large entree. Romaine, bacon, croutons, cheese. It comes with fried chicken, I ordered grilled chicken. The salad was tossed, which I prefer. Every bite gave me the full flavor of this salad. I ordered mine with Ranch but Balsamic Vinaigrette or honey mustard would be delicious on this salad too.McClellan's has a full bar but we stuck with coke and water. The server brought us a large craft of cold water when we entered. Perfect! I'll drink 2 or 3 waters with my meal. I loved that I did not need to request a refill. Their coke was only $1.50 and the dispenser poured it sweet and so good!We will be back. I was just thinking about friends to invite to join us next time!

Chipotle Burger (yes, at an Irish Pub) was phenomenal. Excellent flavor. Stopped in Sunday for dinner. It was quiet, and perfect. Bartender/waiter was on it too. Will be back!

Went to McClellan on Wednesday. Food , portions small. Two small pieces of fish, cole slaw served in a small plastic condiment container that you would normally get ketchup in. Yes, one bite of slaw. The portion of fries was small too We liked the place, but wont go back

Our server/bartender was amazing. The food was delicious and drink selection was quite extensive.
