    I came here the month it opened in the late 90s 2000s and was always a fan so I recently came back after 22 years in LA and ate here in 2024. Best smash burger and wedge salad I've had in a long time. Superb spot with great food served until closing! Phenom staff also. Loved that they had local beer on tap that was not an IPA, gemut pilsner was fantastic! Really great to see a spot in Cbus that has stood the test of time!

    The outside of this bar/restaurant really does not reflect the inside of this establishment. It's surprisingly clean/comfortable/"modern" inside while still maintaining some of its historical significance. (They've been open forever!) Don't let that old-school Club 185 sign mislead you; it's not the dive bar atmosphere you'd find in most places with that type of sign. PROS: -Open late. Seems to be a place everybody knows about too because they're still pretty busy at 10/11 PM on weeknights. The "off-peak" hours for this place are probably during the daytime. -Drinks were poured well and deliciously. Only good things to say about the drinks - and especially about their well prices. I was surprised a well cocktail was cheaper than a local beer here! -Ambience without being too loud. They had music on, but I was never screaming across the table to hear someone - even at semi-full capacity. It was a pretty comfortable experience. -Good variety of seating. They have booths, low-top tables, high-top bar seating, and a few arm chair seats for drinkers. You can probably find somewhere comfortable to sit here. I believe there's a single step to get into the restaurant itself. There are narrow walkways between the tables themselves, but the main walkway through the restaurant seems wide enough for a wheelchair. -Pigs in a Blanket were pretty good! The bottoms were a little burned, but it didn't stop us from eating all of them. They were delicious. -Prices vary throughout the menu. If you don't need a full meal or you shop their Specials, this is probably one of the most economical places I've found to eat in Columbus. You and a friend can both get not-slider-sized sandwiches for $7. CONS: -Wouldn't get the Fish sandwich again. Fish breading was very thick and overbroiled for the amount of "fish" inside the breading. Meatloaf sandwich was much better. We'd do that one again.

    Love this place. Super busy when we went on a Friday night but were able to get a spot at the bar. Very friendly staff and the food was great, for a good price!
