    BBQ Nachos
    Dawson S.

    Library Bar and Grill is a wonderful placed tucked right next to the University of Oklahoma! The atmosphere was very pleasant and the staff were *extremely* friendly and kind. I visited during the OU-UA football game and it was a great place to eat my feelings away haha. The food was magnificent and cooked straight from order, still steam from how fresh it was! Overall, I highly recommend this place for its wonderful atmosphere, food, and staff! Tip: come early before rush, you'll enjoy it!

    Chicken Alfredo pizza

    You must order the pretzel and beer cheese. One of the best pretzels I've ever had. I ordered the chicken Alfredo pizza. The crust was great, nice and fluffy. The sauce and toppings were what you would expect, pretty standard. My son got a cheese burger. It had a good charbroiled flavor and slight crunch. Good experience and would definitely come back for a pretzel.

    Pepperoni pizza

    I have been in Norman for quite some time now and I have wanted to try The Library for some time now. The place is cute and it looks like a house and the restaurant only has 9 tables. I am currently on a gluten free diet so I was disappointed to see that they didn't have any gluten free options for any of their meals. Despite that I still ordered a pizza because they looked really good. I was a little underwhelmed when I went to eat the pizza because there wasn't much flavor in the crust. I will say they have some good specials in there and the food is really well priced.

    Great atmosphere, good service and a large variety of tab. Spinach cheese dip and salsa was pleasant. Pizza was very good. We had 2 pizzas pepperoni and the only one was sausage.

    Short rib grilled cheese

    10/10 place!! Love the vibes of this restaurant. I feel like it's a hidden gem. I always get their short rib grilled cheese and it never disappoints

    BBQ Chicken Pizza and Pepperoni Pizza

    My favorite place in Norman! I always come after class for either their happy hour pizza or a nice glass of wine. My favorite is their BBQ chicken with a side of ranch. It's also a plus that they have the cutest patio and quick service. .

    Located at NW corner of the university campus, very close to the art museum and Jacobson House Native American Center. So many trees around it we passed it twice before we "found" it! Typical pub menu and reasonably stocked bar. We shared an appetizer and a pizza for a light lunch. I sampled a summer ale (blueberry wheat I think) but ordered the house chardoney; hubby had a Long Island tea. Both were nice choices. Small, intimate space, with only 8 tables & booths plus the bar and 3 tables on the patio. Quiet so we could chat. Two TVs tuned to sports. Lovely setting, friendly service.

    Veggie Pizza (I'm not a fan of black olives, normally on the pizza also)

    I had the pretzel for a starter that was good, the beer cheese was looser than I'm used to but was good. The pizza is very good and fresh tasting. As for the beer selection, WOW great selection. The staff looked very happy to serve anyone walking in the door or sitting outside. Nice little gem

    Just left here usually a fun time, friends and I always have good time...until tonight when my…read moresisters and I were trying to use the restroom as my sister sat down on the toilet the door got kicked in by two grown ass (40-50) women. One said "I know there are more stales in here open the fucking door" if you've been to the deli you would know there is only one toliet in the girls restroom. A grown male walked in to the restroom totally unprofessional and weird... The owner told us to get out obviously to de-escalate the situation this led to him telling us to get the fuck out as the bar was starting to close. We were just trying to tell him what happened as it was very uncomfortable, he then told us to use the mens restroom and it will be fine . If i were you i would avoid using the bathroom...because everyone felt like it was okay to watch you half naked/ felt in-tilted to kick the door open.

    In a bar with only drinks to serve, hitting the service level to achieve a reasonable review of…read moresuccess should be easier; however, the only thing easy about The Deli was leaving, never to return. While the list of things wrong with this bar is longer than the lines at the restroom, mostly caused by the breaks taken by the staff to visit the facilities every fifteen minutes, I'll try to keep the problems to the most egregious. First, the bartenders couldn't be bothered to take an order. If you were lucky enough to make eye contact with one of them between their continuous arguments with each other, you were met with an uncanny ability to either forget your order within seconds or walk back to your table only to find the order was wrong. The line in the bar was quite long, not because the bar was packed with patrons, but rather because you would have to place your order multiple times, or return because it was an errant attempt at your order. The line was so long in fact, that multiple fights broke out while in line either between staff and customers or amongst the patrons themselves. Overall I believe the reason this place even stays open is it's near OU campus and doesn't have to work too hard to take advantage of the occasional new student, over served future middle management cog, or some out of town parents trying a local place. Do better.
