The Ohio Taproom

This is such a fun little bar. Decent beers and seems to be a local hangout. There are a few games to play. Definitely worth checking out.

Stopped by to turn in our Columbus Ale Trail books and decided to grab a beer to celebrate. There are lots of Ohio brews on tap. You can order a full pint of a half pint which is great if you want to try different things. There is some indoor seating and some nice outdoor seating with heaters when it's chilly. Nice place to stop and grab a beer while out and about it Grandview.

Fitting place for the Columbus Ale Trail's home base. Great selection of brews on tap from local Central Ohio breweries. Small and cozy taproom. I feel like I'm in someone's basement. Surprisingly busy on a Sunday afternoon. Felt like a lot of locals in the bar. One small TV; so it's not the best place to watch the game. The bartender was cranking out drinks keeping everyone's glass full. They've been open for 9 years, surprisingly. I'll be back as I still have friends attempting to complete the Ale Trail.

Cozy no frill bar with yummy local beers. We came in the fall and loved the pumpkin beer on tap! Also had games which was nice since we brought our tagalong (kiddo).

Best neighborhood bar in Columbus. Friendly and knowledgeable staff plus dog-friendly. My 10 year old daughter learned how to play chess there.

This is our go to place for a growler of local brew. I love going in and checking out what they have on tap. The bartender is always friendly and knowledgeable. I get super excited if the owner John is behind the bar slinging beers. He is such a kind man. He is so good that he seems to remember my fiancé and I every time we stop in. Now whether he really does or not is a mystery, but if he does not he is really good at acting like it. I love the thought of supporting him.They have approximately 20 taps and only offer Ohio beers on tap, which I love. I am a big proponent of supporting local so Ohio Tap Room lines up well. We always get a sample of a couple of the beers to help us narrow down which growlers we will choose. They are happy to allow us to try whatever we need to make a good decision. On our most recent trip we went with a growler of Maple Mashed Sweet Potatoes Stout and Decorative Gourd Pumpkin Ale from Seventh Son. Both were a phenomenal compliment for our socially distanced pumpkin carving day!!!Thank you Ohio Tap Room for always serving up good brews and kindness. I also want to make note of a new sign they have lamented near where you would pay. It says please do not enter if you have any of the following symptoms of: COVID-19, Racism, Biotry, Xenophobia, Homophobia, or Transphobia. I am fully support of this! You go Ohio Tap Room, set the standard!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!

I hung out here with a group of friends on a hot Saturday afternoon. I was really impressed with the atmosphere, service, and beer selection! There's not much room inside, so I'm not sure what it's like when busy, but our group filled up three place.Love the decor, so many new beers to try, they have wine and cocktails for my wife.There's also a patio, but doesn't seem to get much shade during a summer day that I could tell. When I'm in the neighborhood, I'd make it a point to stop in here again!

The place where I failed dry January and was not mad about it one bit. How was I supposed to order the burgers at smash brothers burgers and not have a sip. The bartender was real chill and attentive. We easily got a spot at the bar, and he helped us get started on ordering on the app, let us sample a beer and helped us choose a good one. It was such a chill evening. He also reminded us that there's a cookie at the bottom of our box and had he not, we would've totally thrown it out. A true hero.

Great selection of local beers! This is a cool little corner establishment. They have an ever-changing variety of beers and ciders from local breweries. You can get growlers which they refill using some pretty interesting contraptions. There is a small amount of seating, and they allow dogs in as well. I visit a nearby camera shop when in Columbus, and we often stop in here to get some beer to take back and have with pizza later.

One of my favorite local spots in Grandview! It's a little on the small side inside with only room for 10-15 people or so given the seating restrictions with COVID (have to be seated to have a drink), which they are following appropriately. But I think that is part of the charm and homey feel of the place! Not to mention, they allow dogs inside too! One of the few places around that does. My dog loved all the attention and the treats from the bartender. Everytime I've gone we've gotten great, friendly service from the bartenders. If the weather is nice, they also have a fairly large patio with at least ~5 tables. They almost always have a food truck outside or are more than welcoming to you bringing over a grandads pizza from across the street. We will be back- frequently!
