  Hey! HEY! You ought to check out this dive bar located in Merion Village. It has lots of character. They sometimes will have food but not often.
  
  If they do have food, it's usually the sauerkraut balls. It's a German food though, which is strange because this is an Irish pub. Of course the bar is located close to German Village. It kind of blends these countries. The exterior and interior certainly look Irish. It has lots of green. There's shamrocks on the windows. It has all kinds of Irish whiskey, even Bushmills. This is good for St. Patrick's Day withdrawal. I had the distant third of Irish whiskey with ginger ale. It's $5 for a glass. This is the same price as the better Irish whiskeys. Get those instead. The only food they had on the menu is the sauerkraut balls, which features pork.
  
  It doesn't have the menu always available. It also has a popular yak burger. There's not many vegetables but they do have a salad.

  How have we lived just down the street and not come here till now! This place is your classic casual divey type bar. It's casual and clean, and the staff here are so SO nice. He came over and welcomed us right when we got here. And of course we HAD to order their famous sauerkraut balls which were amazing! They have a good beer selection, we all got Rhinegeist brews which are always great! The vibe here is chill, laid back and relaxed! I definitely recommend checking this spot out!

  Lovely staff and fantastic happy hour. Love the vibe of this place. I'm a shy and antisocial person and let me tell you, I'm pretty sure I said at least "hello" to almost everyone at the bar. When the patrons are crazy friendly, you know you've found a great neighborhood spot! I heard the food is amazing but I didn't have any this time. If you don't want to sit to eat/drink, there is room in the back for games, reading and darts.

  Was in town for the Arnold, wasn't competing so I wanted to check out a local watering hole. I was walking to the bar from my Air BNB and I asked a neighbor where it was. He told me to hop in and he'd drop me off. What a great spot. Awesome people. Can't say enough about how nice everyone was and how cool a spot this is. TOUCHTUNES. The owner was there earlier in the night for the 39th anniversary, & I was told the ole' bar opened in 1900. Great staff and locals. The bar you want to visit in Columbus. Have a Jameson Black Barrel for me. CHEERS!

  What a cute little n(Hey!)borhood bar!
  
  I met some friends who just moved to Merion Village here for dinner and drinks. We started with beers and mixed drinks (my vodka/soda could have been a little stronger TBH) and their "famous" Jalapeno sauerkraut balls. They came with horseradish and honey mustard sauce and were little gems of delightfulness to whet our appetite. The menu is pretty simple. One side was regular menu options printed out and the reverse was handwritten specials. When in doubt, always get the specials. I had the reuben which was a greasy morsel of yummy. Very good with thick slices of corned beef--got me into the St. Patty's mood really. Service was great considering there were only 2 guys tending to the bar and the front end of the establishment which was pretty full.
  
  A very eclectic and inviting place. We hung out with the locals and regulars for a few hours while catching up. Watched people playing darts and were invited back for live music. I'd def be game to meet up there again for casual fare and drinks.
