Truly an amazing find. Easy to find off of I71, right near Polaris... the staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. What cannot be praised enough was the quality of the food. From appetizer to entree, this store was unparalleled. I would recommend to anyone, and will be back again soon. Try the homemade tots. They are to die for. We also had the hanger steak and the pork chop. 101 also has am extensive drink menu ranging from local craft beers, to exotic, limited releases, to mead, to cocktails. 5 stars isn't enough praise for this restaurant. Dine here soon. read more

This is one of our favorite stops in Columbus!!! We love the menu changes by season as well as the beer selection changes each season. The wait staff is attentive but not smothering. If you need something they will get it for you but they aren't hovering over you constantly. We love the atmosphere in this place. The music choices are great and never cease to add to our experience. My husband had the brisket sandwich and rated it a 10/10. He's much harsher than I am. Lol. Go here!!! There are several locations in Columbus and they are all great!!! read more

I ordered the Margherita flatbread, and it was bland and underwhelming. Our server didn't come by to refill our drinks until we were finished with our food. The 101 Burger was delicious, and the Parmesan fries were also very good. The restaurant was clean & I loved the vibes! Would go back, just wouldn't get the flatbread again. read more

I came because I wanted a beer and it was close to my hotel. Sat at the bar. The staff was very friendly and the bartender helped me choose a beer and an entree based on what I shared with him. I got the Mac n Cheese small plate with a 4 oz steak. The Mac n cheese was good (I'm hard to please when it comes to this dish) and the steak was cooked perfectly. Great selection of beers. read more

Absolutely outstanding. The menu is inspired, the space is "rustic chic," and the service is solid. Don't be fooled by the fact this is situated at the end of a strip mall ... once you step inside, you quickly realize you're in for an elevated dining experience. Which is exactly what you get. read more

The food was amazing, highly recommend the ricotta sun-dried tomato dip. Our service was attentive & not overwhelming All our needs were met. read more

A friend and I chose to meet for dinner at 101 Beer/Craft Kitchen. It was a rainy evening, and having convenient parking was a factor in our decision. I had looked at the menu of several nearby places, and 101 BCK had an ample selection and reasonable prices. We were not disappointed. The service was friendly and efficient. We ordered the buffalo cauliflower dip, butternut squash soups, and beet salads. They were all delicious! The vegetarian and vegan choices here are better than in most restaurants. As are the alcohol-free beer selections (and prices). I will return. read more

. Good beer selection, good food. I always go with the burger and Mac and cheese. This time saved some room for the chocolate molten lava cake which I also really enjoyed. Always a solid choice for Americana food, especially for the Polaris area. read more

Super cute spot, first time in! Food service was very quick, our server was decent, wasn't very talkative, not much personality. I ordered a Margarita, was not very strong at all, sour & could hardly taste the tequila. Not pictured but I got the housemade tator tots and those were bomb! Very soft, but also crunchy on the outside, loved the aioli drizzled. For my entree I got salmon BLT and parmesan fries. The salmon was cooked perfectly with great flavor! I enjoyed the bun it was on, and the parmesan fries were really good also! It was my aunts birthday and they don't do anything for birthdays which is always a little disappointing. But I will definitely come back! read more

We visited on a Thursday night and were sat immediately. I was super excited to give it a try. However, we waited 15 minutes, and no one ever came to our table. I saw four separate employees stop at the server station by our table, but no one stopped to help us, so we left. read more

Love their burgers and the soup we go to the Gahanna restaurant. Bartenders are fantastic

This is a great place to go with families. The kids menu has awesome options with multiple sides, a drink and dessert included. The rest of the menu is always great too! I also love their happy hour and brunch for a fun time with friends. read more

Always a delight! My husband and I frequent the Gahanna location for dinner but came to Polaris for a birthday brunch. Both locations have a cozy and intimate vibe with rich pieces and a fireplace giving off warmth and an inviting flicker. The service has always been friendly, attentive and spot on and the food is the perfect combination of classic comfort with new American twists. My husband opted for the brunch chicken and biscuits. He said it was fantastic and the hot honey added the perfect savory sweet flavor combo. I went me my regular win, a side on Mac n cheese and the wings. They have the best restaurant mac n cheese! Perfectly creamy, slight tang and light Brian panko topping. The wings are a sweet heat, smoked and grilled and come with a house made blue cheese dressing. read more

Great menu options and friendly staff. The brunch menu used to be our go-to but the new menu has a few brunch items

101 BK never disappoints! The decor is rustic but very tasteful. They have a seasonal menu, but also have their classic items like the Ale & Cheddar Soup or Loaded Housemade Tots. In the summer, the Watermelon Salad is AMAZING. We are always greeted by warm and friendly staff, and they are great about offering honest opinions of menu recommendations. We have never had a bad experience, and go quite often. The one thing I wish is that they bring back their pea soup and jalapeño cornbread! I still have dreams about that duo, and it's been gone for years! Their beer selection is always on point and their crafted cocktails are superb. I feel that the quality and value is excellent. They do not carry commercial beer so if that's your thing, you'll need to broaden your horizons and try a new microbrew. read more

always great food here....the bartender (Steve) is absolutely the best. just all around a great time here!!

Just ok. The food isn't horrible but I have never left saying "that was so good let's go back!" I would not put it in my lets of restaurants to choose. read more

When we arrived the hostess was not very enthusiastic or helpful. She told us to pick a high top around the bar. She didn't even check first... so we walk over there and none available. I love the food but when I asked if I could get half of a salad I was told no. I really think with how good the food is and so many great options you should be able get half portions that way you can try more foods without wasting it. The restrooms are small and it could use a few more stalls. It would also be more helpful for if the staff wore name badges. read more

Food was just ok in my opinion, under seasoned but had a good bit of options. Service was good. Ambiance was cute really like the theme and decor. read more

Visited on a Tuesday evening, the place was moderately busy but open tables for walk ins. Got there before my group and enjoyed a great breakfast stout at the bar. Bar service was good and happy hour prices were reasonable. Joined my group at the table and had tater tots, flat bread, and butternut squash perogies. All were good with unique flavor. Although good, they were served warm, not hot. The entree I chose was the scallops, also good but could have been warmer. The highlight of the evening was dessert. The selection was limited with just 3 choices, all were very good and served hot after a longer wait. The banana foster style butter cake was by far the best. This is a good choice for a nice evening, not a must try but worth it if you are in the neighborhood. read more

Food - amazing Ambiance - amazing Service - amazing This was truly one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The hosts were so pleasant to speak to. Our server was great, and he brought my son's cookie out immediately so he wouldn't die of starvation. AND he got another one with his meal. There was a bit of confusion over my beer selection (my fault, really) but our server was very gracious about it and brought me the beer I wanted originally. I wish we lived closer so I could try every single thing on this menu. I just ended up getting a bunch of a la carte items because they sounded so good. Butternut squash pierogi - I can't even describe how good the filling was. The caramelized onion and wilted spinach accompaniment were scraped off the plate. The filet was perfectly cooked. Risotto cakes were crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. Brown butter gnocchi were soft and fluffy and deliciously sauced. Truly everything we ate was delicious. We will definitely come back if/when we are in town again. My six year old's review of his kids' pizza flatbread meal: "Oh, it was so good. I felt like my tummy was out to here." (Held his arms out in a big circle.) read more

Eh, 101 Beer Kitchen had tremendous potential, but the execution during my dinner left much to be desired. Let's talk about the positives. The beer choices are impressive and they offer wine and cocktails, too. My food was also decent - the pretzels were good (though I would've appreciated some mustard) and my jerk salmon was solid, too. However, it took 45 minutes for the food to arrive and they brought the appetizer at the same time as the entree - the cardinal sin of dining. Our plates were scalding as if they had been under a heat lamp for a while. The restaurant was only about half full and they didn't seem to have any staffing issues. read more

We are just passing through on a long road trip and staring overnight in the area. Did a quick search of the area for brew pub fare and found this gem. Compared a number of menu's in the area and 101 Craft Kitchen's menu won hands down. While we deeply considered the Beef Carpaccio, we went lighter with the Heirloom Tomato Caprese. For dinner the Creole Pork chop and Scrimp Scampi was exceptional. The service was attentive and ambiance begs for a repeat visit. Well done! -Ted read more

Anthony was great server. Went above and beyond to assist us. 5/2/2025 was the date of service. especially helpful with a baby. brought her food first. pleasant. Gave dinner recommendations that were very helpful read more

It's the second time I've come to this place and was even better than the first time which was exceptional. This time I went for the salads we loved them; fresh ingredients, the salmon was espectacular and perfectly cooked and the souther salad is a most try. The Greek salad with the chicken was really, really good with the perfect balance between Mediterranean flavors. Our bartender was polite and efficient In every aspect and after all this, believe me, there's gonna be a third time read more

We went to 101 Craft Kitchen to celebrate the birthdays of my twins that turned 21. This honestly was one of the worst meals we've had as a family in a long time. The pretzels were good (although a little overcooked), the fries were soggy, greasy, and undercooked, the house chips tasted stale, the burgers had soggy bottoms buns, and they do not do anything to celebrate birthdays. The menu is awkward. You'd think with a limited menu the food would be better. Highly disappointed and we will NEVER be back. read more

Great place to eat! Everything we had was wonderful. We had the stuffed jalapeños for an appetizer.. great eats. We didn't get to try any of the craft beers, but they looked very interesting to try on another visit! read more

First off, we absolutely LOVE 101 Beer Kitchen and have visited every location in Central Ohio at this point. They have a rustic industrial craft vibe from the moment you walk through the door. Always very friendly and welcoming. Loved that this site had an outside patio also which was where we sat. We ordered their tots which are just the most delicious things ever created haha. The sriracha cream sauce is my favorite and I get it for my fries too. For dinner I was thrilled that they brought back the tortilla crusted chicken sandwich, my fav! Their menu changes with the seasons so if you have a fav, just know it may not be there all the time.... but it might return!! read more

Service was very good during a busy time. The location is more developed since the last time I was here about two years ago. Ample parking in a modern strip mall. This is my favorite 101 location in the city. I got the lobster Mac and it was delicious. I tried a few of the other dishes and everyone had nothing but praise for every food item. Good selection of bottled brews and a little less for drafts. I would have liked the music a little louder but the overall experience here was great. read more

Food was yummy! A friend too me here after I had my daughter. It was so good! It didn't fill me up unfortunately. It tasted delicious and the drinks were yummy! I got the Mac and Cheese on the side with a sandwich and brussel sprouts. Had one of their seasonal mixed drinks as well and it was so good! My friends food and drink were amazing as well! Was busy in there but they were really accommodating for me bringing my daughter in her car seat. Staff was so sweet! It was semi loud but you were still able to hear the music. read more

101 Beer Kitchen has a certain vibe that's just right. Intimate atmosphere, but not stuffy. Creative, yet super accessible, menu. Plus a fantastic beer selection! I can confidently say that I've never had a sub par meal here. Most recently I tried the salmon bowl and it was beautifully presented and so so satisfying. It's super easy to make a reservation online - do it! read more

Wow! What a great place to eat! We came with family and wanted a fun place with good food. You might say, a place that serves burgers? Yes, quite an amazing burger and everything is equally amazing. Let me say that their side dishes are stellar: I had the Fried Green Tomatoes and I could have made a meal from that dish, alone. My wife had the Mexican Street Corn (Elotes?) and loved it. I had the 101 Burger and it is stellar. The burger is so juicy and the pairing of toppings is equally great. My wife had the Perch Sandwich and Lobster Bisque and also loved it. Our server (Cameron) was very helpful and patient. If you are in the Polaris area this is a place you really have to go to as the food is great! read more

Everything about this place is great. My husband and I have been here couple times and the food, the service and the atmosphere is just great. This seems like it will be our go to place when we can't think of a place to go to. Soon as we arrived, we were seated right away and the server came to take our orders very quickly. The place is very clean and the noise level is just right to hold a conversation with your party. We ordered the Jalapeno Cheese Poppers and the Chicken Wings for appetizer and they were both were delicious. If I had to choose one, I would pick the Jalapeno Poppers. It has a honey base to it, which is really good. For the entrée, my husband and I shared the Lobster Roll that came with Mexican style street corn. I don't even like corn but the corn was really good. As per the Lobster roll, it was just delicious. They did not hold back on the lobster meat. We told our server that we were going to share the entrée and when the food came out the lobster roll was divided into two for us already on two separate plate. They didn't have to do that, but that goes to show the excellent hospitably that they show to their customers. As per drinks, both my husband and I we like sweet drinks and we asked for recommendation from our server and she recommend the Lavender Blueberry Lemonade and Strawberry Mule. Both of the drinks were fantastic, and I highly recommend getting it, if you are into sweet drinks. Over all, definitely recommend this place and we will definitely go back to 101 Beer Kitchen! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus. My wife and I have been here a few times, and the food and drinks are excellent, and the service has always been prompt and thoughtful. On our last trip here, our server provided great recommendations, and everything she recommended came out great. We shared the Jalapeno Cheese Poppers and the Chicken Wings - both were delicious, and large enough portion sizes for individual meals. We then shared a Lobster Roll, which came with generous portions of lobster meat (our server was attentive enough to ask the kitchen staff to split up the lobster roll - like I said, very thoughtful!). We also tried the Strawberry Mule and the Lavender Blueberry Lemonade - both of which were perfect for a hot summer's day! 101 Beer Kitchen always provides consistently great experience each time we dine here, and we will definitely be back. read more
