The owner is one of the most friendly people I've ever met. There is a TON of merch available if you find yourself wanting some swag. I got the address updated in Yelp so you should be able to find their new Westerville location and not make the long drive to their original location (that's now a car repair shop - oops). My bummer was with the beer. We both ordered a beer with flavor and felt it was a little on the light side. Maybe it's a personal preference, but when I have a peanut butter beer, I like getting smacked in the face with that flavor. I'm curious to try the Butterbeer and hope to come back soon to try it. It sounds like a crowd favorite. I'm excited to see what comes from this new brewery.

So sad... Came for a…read moreComedy Show. Thought beer, bar food and belly laughs! Unfortunately, once we arrived, (30 minutes before the show, hungry and ready to drink!), we were told the kitchen was closed! One of their 2 fryers had broken down. Instead of offering to bring food in, run to Costco and get a fryer (or two), the manager told us 'it wasn't her problem'!!! She said she rents the events room out hourly, and although she provides the alcohol, she was not responsible for providing food! Not sure how a proprietor can advertise an event, then take no responsibility when things go off track, is beyond me. I just know this would not be the type of establishment I would come back to, or spend my hard earned dollars at. There are other options available.

My only regret is as not ordering the peanut butter chocolate pie, but my midsection was glad.

My usual order is the Reuben on rye with corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss, and Russian dressing. It's always my go-to and never disappoints. I also recently tried the State & Main on rye with corned beef, pastrami, and coleslaw, which was another solid choice. I've heard great things about the Paesano on an Italian sub bun with ham, hot capicola, pepperoni, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, banana peppers, and Italian dressing (can be served hot or cold). A friend's favorite is the Figaboudit on grilled ciabatta with prosciutto, fig jam, goat cheese, and arugula. If you go, don't skip the homemade chips with the house-made sour cream and onion dip--it's easily my favorite thing on the menu and worth ordering as a side or appetizer.

We had a short wait for a patio table, but it was absolutely worth it the patio is perfect on a summer evening. The food was excellent!

A special shoutout to our server, Gavin, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and personable. His great service made an already enjoyable visit even better. 10/10 experience we'll definitely be back!

The brewery has a large parking lot, which made it easy to stop in and relax after traveling. We ordered food from the El Catrin food truck parked outside, and it was absolutely amazing--we'll definitely be writing a separate review for them! The bartender was friendly and welcoming, and even gave us a booklet for the local ale trail, which was a nice touch. We tried a flight of five beers and sampled a few others as well. There was a good variety to choose from, and everything we tried was enjoyable. One of our favorite things was that the brewery is dog-friendly. They also have outdoor seating, which made for a great atmosphere to enjoy the beer and the nice weather. We'd definitely stop back the next time we're in the area.

I wanted to try several beers but was initially hesitant due to the price of their individual 5oz pours. The flight discounted those amounts. For the three beers that I landed on, they were all good. It's hard to choose a favorite, but the cinnamon-tinged Emotional Knapsack barely gets the nod over the Nuts for You and Heavy Hearted Amber. They seem to have a long-term partnership with Comida El Catrín food truck in the evenings, and that's a great decision because they're great in every way.

The vibe is always chill and welcoming, making it perfect for meetings, getting some work done, casual hangouts, or even small celebrations. The space itself feels warm and inviting, and I love that they regularly bring in different food trucks, so there's always something new and local to try alongside your drink. My absolute favorite is their s'mores cortado -- it is so good, and I genuinely look forward to it every year when fall season rolls around. Definitely a go-to spot when you want a relaxed atmosphere with great drinks.

I visit Columbus/Dublin a couple of times a year for work. I walked in from the rain with a…read moreco-worker on a Wednesday night a little after 9:00pm - after trying to visit "No Soliciting". "No Soliciting " is a bar we found online - but didn't realize is a private club for members only. We tried The Pearl next door. They were closing in minutes. So we found that North High was the next closest place that closed at 10:00pm. We were also desperate for a restroom. We walked in - the place was devoid of customers - and the bar tender was NOT happy to see us. She had a very long day - and was yearning to "Just. Go. Home." We've all been there. She agreed to let us have one drink in plastic cups - completely understandable. But she messed up by letting us stay - completely underestimating the level of style & charm (not to mention handsomeness) my colleague and I possess *wink* . "One drink" turned into a handful. A good time was had by all. We hated that we had an early morning the next day - and had to return to our hotel well before we would have liked. I will make North High a "mandatory stop" on future visits (alongside my other "mandatory stop" - The Rusty Bucket for their buffalo chicken sandwich - with an extra side of buffalo). Side note - she gave me a taste of their Bloody Mary mix. *VERY* good. I used some of my dashing character and disarming baby blues to swindle them out of a bottle for only $15. It was worth $50. But this was a one-off deal. Don't walk in there expecting the same courtesy - unless you too possess unmatched panache & flair *finger guns*.

We went today for Father's Day, about six months after the last sub par experience, hoping it would be better. Somehow they ran out of chicken again?! AND lemonade, and they had no kids menus left. Food took forever. I ordered a glass of wine that never arrived - and when we got our check it's just a tablet with a price. We wanted to leave so I didn't even check to see if the wine was still on there. Food was cold, salad was soggy, burger was very meh. For $150 it was overall a bad experience for the second time in a row. Definitely spend your money at any of the other local restaurants in town.

I also like how you can get a smaller glass of beer for a cheaper price, if you're like me and have trouble finishing a whole drink! I like how they specify on the menu if dishes can be made vegetarian, vegan, or gluten free, and even if they use shared fryers. The crispy fried eggplant was super flavorful and had a crunchy layer of rice to accompany it. It had a slight Szechuan spicy and sweet sauce. I liked how the lasagna was served with wonton chips, which made it less heavy and yet had such a nice crunch. The smoked ribeye was impressive with slow cooked beef and lots of onions. It came with Cajun fries and the fries were good! If you're into sandwiches, the Nashville hot and cod sandwiches were also solid. Service was quick and efficient. My friend ordered the small beer and there was some confusion with the waiter billing it as a tall glass, but we managed to figure it out in the end. Just remember that they do add a service charge if you don't use debit or cash!

Beer is good, as expected. $7 most pours, lower abv $6-$7. Service is often understaffed or just not interested in providing great service. Honestly kinda surprised they are still open, maybe due to lack of many options in the area. Less expensive food, a happy hour or great service or upper level staff to encourage great service could change this. I've not been there past 8pm, maybe it gets better later? I don't know.
