Our favorite places

Bars and Pubs

Mac’s- A fun little pub, walking distance from our house. Decent beer selection, our favorite nachos in Columbus and pretty good cheese fries as well. They have a pool table and Golden Tee in the back room which is a nice quiet escape from the sometimes loud front area.

Barley’s- Another favorite. Barley’s doesn’t have the cool dive bar feel Mac’s has but they are a micro-brewery and have amazing food and a few dart boards. We recommend the buffalo chicken salad, grilled or fried its amazing.

Bodega- Literally 2 blocks from our house, when we first moved in we were down there at least once a week. They have the largest on-tap selection I have ever seen and their menu is simple but tasty. We usually split a panini and bruschetta.

St. James Tavern- The closest bar to our house is just around the corner. The pool tables and always awesome music (and of course convenience) are the reasons to head to St. James. The definition of a dive bar has a very eclectic crowd and that whole “Cheers, everybody knows your name” feeling.
