A nice elongated bar and grill with very nice bartenders. Superb Bison & beef burger that packs the juiciness and flavor. I paired the masteriece with a neat casual Maker's Mark. Great palette offsetting the hearty beef!
Arch City Burger is my jam. Something about the way its made it delish. I know each time I go I'm going to be satisfied with what we get to eat. Even though I didnt get Nashville Chicken sandwich is also good. We chose to sit at the bar & our bartender Jack is always a pleasure to talk to. We have been a regular of his for years.
The staff was attentive and quick, and checked in on myself and my friend frequently. Our waitress explained the specials to us (it was our first time here) and was very helpful in answering out questions. We didn't feel pressured to order quickly. If I'm in Columbus again I'm definitely going to try and come back here!
I was very surprised and impressed with this place because most of the “taverns” that I’ve been to were mediocre. Inside was clean and the service was very good. They have a pretty large drink menu so hopefully everyone can find at least one drink that they would like. If I had to describe the menu, it would be elevated brewery food. I ordered lamb sliders and their burger with truffle fries. The lamb was extremely tender and the flavors were great. The burger was delicious. The truffle fries were probably the best truffle fries I’ve had, being able to taste each grain of seasoning. The prices were fair for what they offered. I’m glad I found it because it is now on my radar to return.
Absolutely a must go to if you are in the Columbus area! The food was exceptional especially the lamb sliders. The lobster mac and cheese some of the best we've had! The Reuben egg rolls Wow what a surprise! And the draft beers definitely worth it. Service was great. Lots of seating and if I live down here I would become a regular no doubt!
I was here 12/11/25 around 1PM. I can’t remember our waitresses name but she was phenomenal, so please tell her!! We got the hummus veggie plate and the pork sliders. Drink selection 👌Christmas decorations were simple and beautiful.
Very good food. Amish chicken sandwich is great! Salmon sandwich is good! Bison burger is very good. Truffle fried are the best, chips don't have too much flavor. Caesar salad is well done as the meal or side. Sandwiches $17-$19.
Excellent food and service . Bartender Jade was amazing.. best burger, I have had in a very long time
Delicioso! Loved every bite from every dish we tried. Felt like we were in a New York City spot. The service was super fast and attentive. Wife and I met the owner and was very hospitable. We had the Lamb Sliders, Arch City Burger and the Lobster Mac n Cheese. The sliders were so tasty, they were tender, shredded, juicy, and seasoned well. Abundant goat cheese on each one. The fries were just right. The homemade potato chips were just as good, very crispy and seasoned. Burger was juicy and yum. Lobster Mac could've been a meal on its own, but we got it as a side dish, and had some to take home for lunch day after. Topped it all off with a mango lime mocktail and a slice of key lime pie. Best key lime ice ever had honestly. The mocktail was a bit sour but was a good compliment to the savory food. The ambience is great, but it is a bit loud with the music, was pretty hard to carry a conversation. Will definitely return. 🙏🏼
Wife and I went in to try their Burger. It was delicious we sat at the bar and Jade our bartender was such a beautiful delightful person. She handled our order as well as the full bar. The burger and brussel sprouts was excellent as well as the meatballs and southwest rolls. We had such a nice night out will definitely go back thanks
