Great place for a show. Coming in was confusing. The entry is in the center and up the stairs. But we had to check in first and get our hands stamped, in the door just to the right. Friendly and helpful staff the whole time, at check-in, the door, bar, etc. Go up the stairs and there is a little landing with bathrooms and a sort of recovery room thing- didn't go in there, but looked like a place to escape the crowd and noise. Straight in the double doors is the show venue, a cool old theater. Great sound, nice lighting. Bar is up another set of stairs, with a small balcony with tables. Accessibility might be an issue; I saw no elevator though there could be one. Two sets of steep stairs were hard on an old guy with bad knees, especially coming down from the bar with drinks. Pizza and burgers, etc., at the bar, nice to have handy. Fast friendly service. Downstairs, the bar to the left of the entry looks quite nice, and they had the show on a TV. Crowd wasn't massive so you could wander up and down and enjoy all areas. Definitely would come back for another show.

The place is a very cool, old 3 story venue in downtown Newark, apparently recently renovated. We…read moredrove over for the Ben Nichols of Lucero solo show. We did have drink/bar issues in that the third floor bar was limited and the main floor bar was busy with only one gal tending. My husband could not get the beer he wanted as they were out so he settled for another. He ordered my Riesling but they had to go fetch a warm bottle from the basement. The sound was pretty good, although since we were standing under the speakers, it was difficult for me to hear his between song chats with the audience. I would return. I love old places with character and this suits my enjoyment of small Indy shows.

Nope, they were another $3.79 and $3.99 for my husband who ordered the seasoned fries, which by the way were frozen deep fried French fries. $9.99 was the price of the sandwich with out any toppings. Okay so I get paying for cheese but really, tomato and lettuce too? The server asked what condiment and when I asked if they had honey mustard, she never said there'd be an up charge. So my $9.99 sandwich was now $12.79 without any fries! Hand cut fries have to be the cheapest side and most restaurants add them to sandwich plates and only charge for substitutions. Our total bill for two sandwiches and fries plus one iced tea was $35.96. And if it was gourmet or a larger serving I wouldn't post this review, but it was small and ordinary food! We stopped here on our way home from another location and weren't familiar with the area. Chances are we'll never be by again but I thought I'd save someone else from being ripped off!

Some nights may be packed while others you'll have plenty of space to relax. Parking can be a challenge too as it is only street parking near by.

I have to say though, the food is really what makes Kickin' unique. Unlike many bars with decent-but-not-memorable food, theirs is. Amazing. There's not even words to adequately describe it. When I was eating my taco, it was like I was transported to Mexico! The ingredients are all incredibly fresh. I really can't say enough nice things about Kickin'. Don't sleep. Come here NOW!

We…read morecontinued coming weekly for a month or two after the ownership change, but things changed rather quickly. The normal bartenders were replaced with new ones. The amazing chef who made wonderfully delicious "not-your-typical-bar-food" was gone. Drink prices went up, and the day we were charged additional for the mixer was the last day went. They've brought back deep fried bar food and overpriced drinks. The DJ service that used to be there is also gone and replaced with someone else. Seems like they have some identity crisis of wanting to be something other than a country bar (in Bolivar, Ohio).

I recently attended a music festival at Legend Valley (Lost Lands) and with it being my first time…read morethere, I was really impressed with the venue and how everything was run. It's located right off interstate 70 in Thornville. Being that it's in a smaller town, traffic got a little backed up arriving but it moved fairly fast and leaving wasn't an issue at all. Getting into the venue was also pretty easy. There was only one day (out of four) where the entrance line was a little backed up and by little I mean maybe five minutes. The space is huge, with a ton of space to walk around and room for all sorts of vendors. From food and facilities to merch and medical, everything flowed pretty well. I know a lot of this depends on the fest and who runs it but I know the venue has a lot to do with that. I didn't camp, but I did catch word that there's a new tunnel that connects campers to the entrance, which I can only imagine makes the experience much easier. I have no doubt that I'll be back!

@( * O * )@*500TH REVIEW*@( * O * )@…read more Wow, on a three WEEK roadtrip that I did from California to New York, Lost Lands was my Grand Prix, the triple crown, or whatever parallel you'd use for the biggest of music festivals. Really fun 4 day camping with 130k other people so enjoy the full festival while you're at it. Legend Valley is a venue about 30 minutes from downtown Columbus, and Lost Lands is just one of many events here. The venue itself is pretty far out there and has some intense traffic to get in, but they do have a general parking area if you are coming from a hotel in Columbus. One big negative that I do have to mention was the camping entry times which was HORRENDOUS. This particular year (2021) was brutal af because of the 13 hour wait time from 6pm to 7am just to enter the venue and setup camp because the organization was rusty and police were just taking people in circles. That was the only bad part of the event and hopefully you don't have to wait that long just to setup your tent because that's the longest I've ever waited for a camping festival. However, that negativity pretty much ended with how everything else went SMOOTHLY. The venue seemed bigger than ever, the event ran without much issues, and the music was good. YES, showers are $10. Bring your own. Yes, the food options are typical overpriced crumbs you call food. Bring your own. need good vibes? BRING YOUR OWN. Now in comparison of the other big festivals like EDC, Bass Canyon, Forbidden Kingdom, I do want to point out that the vibes imo are pretty good, though I think Bass Canyon tops Lost Lands unsurprisingly. Still, tons of space and you never feel overwhelmed like you do at EDC due to Columbus being a much smaller town to host than Las Vegas. There's no shortage of grass to sit and it's nice overall. The dinosaurs add a nice touch to the venue, so enjoy the 60 ft brachiosaurus in the middle of the crowd while walking towards mainstage. It's hard to describe without being there yourself. Overall, great time with friends , dubstep fans, and camping trips if you're in Ohio in September.

Everyone there knows your name... even if you don't know theirs! They have made a lot of changes since back in the day and every time I visit I feel like there's been more updates to the space. I really enjoy playing games upstairs and chilling on the patio (both additions over the years) It's about the only bar in town where you can enjoy live music on the patio and a really good time. Drinks are cheap as can be, the lineup music wise changes regularly and continues to bring to good talent to town, and there's plenty of parking across the street. Just please, please, please use the crosswalk. Halloween is always a good time too! While I'm well passed my days of evening nights at The Goat, I still like to visit from time to time with friends and I know I'll be back sooner or later.
