    Super love this place!! Seriously best place in Columbus!! Staff is awesome. Place is like a dive bar but so friendly. Food all looks good that came out of the kitchen (sat right by window). AMAZING just go!! I'd definitely go again and again. Literally would only come to Columbus to come to this bar!! Has free parking!!!

    Disappointing meal. Service was great and we had high hopes on Sunday at 1pm. Fried food came out dark brown! Oil needs replaced, or temp lowered. Fish and chips were so dark. The breading was so thick and rock hard. The chips were almost inedible. Family's fries were just as dark brown, even the bun was extra krispie. Husband said the Reuben was just ok.

    Great Deal!  A Full Platter Of Fish And Chips With Cole Slaw For Just $14.95.  **I Asked For Extra Tartar Sauce And She Hooked Me Up!**

    Five stars. Five reasons. Review based on lunch / daytime visits... 1. O'Reilly's is a cool boozy hangout that caters to an older locals crowd. It's a certified dive wirh an Irish theme that's got that Thurman's, India Oak Grill, Mama's Pasta and Brew kind of vibe. 2. Bartenders? Jill is the fun one. She'll say almost anything with a salty sassiness that really lights the place up. I've also met another bartender who's also super nice but she has a little more down to earth, down to business way of doing things. 3. They've got a pretty impressive menu with wallet friendly prices. There's all kinds of burgers, subs, sandwiches with a big selection of the usual deep fried bar food you'd expect. 4. Their daily specials are pretty sweet too and they are a big hit with all the locals that come in. Look for it by the kitchen door. 5. The jukebox. Im guessing it was last updated around 1998 or so. That's not a bad thing as it's a cool eclectic mix of retro music that just fits the place. ***Please note my personal thank you to the staff and management for not having it cranked up to 11. Go there if you like good hearty food in an authentic dive... And I Have To Give You My Thoughts On Some Of The Food I've Tried... Rachel: Aka Turkey Reuben. It's a freaking awesome sandwich with just the right amount of savory goodness. Get the fries with it. Fish and Chips: It's a solid meal. It's a big portion that tastes great and it will fill you up for a reasonable amount of USDs. Veggie Sub: As good as anyone elses. I'm happy their's come with chips and a pickle spear at no extra charge. Wings: They come breaded and sauced. No joke, these are seriously the biggest wings I've ever seen! Celery and ranch/bleu cheese are an upcharge. Chili: Mark K got this and had nothing but good things to say about it. Ruben: Pat E's choice for a great lunch! ***Thanks to Pat E. for introducing me to this place! I'm looking forward to another meet up. SOON!

    I hate leaving 5 star reviews. It seems dishonest and lazy. This place is a dive bar feel that is probably a popular local spot. The service is not super speedy, and there was one person service the entire place - bar and all, but she was so friendly and fun. I'm amazed at how she keeps this place in order by herself. Additionally, she made the experience so fun! I was looking for a good burger and landed on O'Reilly's. I ordered a side of onion rings and also a pepper burger with fries , while my girlfriend went with the jerk burger. There was no discussion on how i wanted it cooked, but toppings were asked. My burger was so intensely good that this might be the best burger I've had yet in Columbus. The onion rings were perfectly cooked. Everything about our burgers was fresh and just delicious. I have a new favorite burger spot. This is a perfect dive bar feel with an outstanding kitchen and truly amazing and friendly staff. This is an example of what makes Columbus dining so great! This is a hidden GEM!

    I've heard my brother talking about this place and "The Pepper Burger" for years. We met up today for lunch there. What a great little place, decorated with a mix of Columbus sports memorabilia and other odds and ends. Our waitress was great, asked us for our order right away, two pepper burgers, an ice tea and a PBR. It took awhile for our burgers to come out, no big deal, we bullshitted and the wait was worth it. The burger was cooked perfectly, it is covered with cracked pepper corns, bacon, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles. That's all sitting on a fresh bun. It came with a side of potato chips and a dill spear. I will definitely have this burger again. I have to try the Rueben though, I overheard someone saying it's the best they've ever had.

    Do they have a trivia night?

    I've been there many times over the last 5 years and have never seen nor heard of any trivia night.

    Is this a 21 and over place?

    Not exclusively. We take our underaged daughter there for dinner frequently.

Based on her suggestions, I ordered the Southern Spring Rolls and the Loaded Brussels sprouts with feta and cranberries; both were phenomenal, especially the dipping sauces she provided for the rolls. My main course, the Arch City Burger, was cooked to perfection on a nicely toasted bun, and the Caesar salad I ordered as a starter was fresh and crisp although dressing was average not my preference. To finish, both the Night Shift martini and complimentary tiramisu were delicious. While I had an overall excellent experience and plan to return soon, I did want to provide some constructive feedback regarding the beverages here. I was disappointed that bottled water was unavailable. Additionally, I found the $17+ price point for pre-batched cocktails to be quite high, as I generally prefer a freshly made drink. However, I was very pleased that Dane was able to accommodate my request for a fresh Buffalo Trace Old Fashioned instead. Thank you again for a lovely lunch and pass my compliments along to Dane for her outstanding hospitality!

It came with garlic bread (one of the main reasons I ordered it) and that was delicious too. With great food and great service, I'd go back for sure. I didn't get a beer as it was a work lunch, but I bet beer is good too.
