    Fish and chips
    Laura B.

    Cute spot, stopped in on our way down to a wedding. Service was friendly, lots of TVs to watch. I had the cod , giant piece of fish and amazing crunchy batter with homemade tartar sauce . The fries were hand cut, overall nice experience.

    WV Slaw Dog and Cod sandwich

    A+ food and service. Good beer also. Bartender recommended a good beer as I am from out of town. Very friendly staff.

    Chicken & Waffle with maple syrup and whipped cream

    An unlikely gathering spot for a few nearly-octogenarians to meet up, but the location was right and the reviews were good. The reviews were warranted. We were able to occupy a high top table for two hours and received service that was attentive, cheerful, and not rushing us even though we weren't drinking or ordering much. We had chicken && waffles (out-of-this-world delish), and a bacon cheeseburger (thick, juicy, cooked perfectly evenly throughout) with fries sprinkled with sea salt (the first thing to be eaten since they were good & hot). Ambiance was nice, too. Light birch wood covering ceilings about 12 feet high, well-lit, comfortable, clean. Business was starting to pick up when we left around 6:30 on a Monday night, but it was a wonderful place for a light dinner early on. Highly recommend to anyone.

    Our first trip here was last week and I had this amazing West Virginia slaw dog that I now can't get enough of. It was delicious! Just went back again last night for the 2nd time. The bartenders were awesome and talkative. It's got a nice patio out back. It's my new favorite place to go for some food and a few beers!

    Wow! Birch Tavern has made some upgrades inside since the last time I stopped in. I previously would have considered it a great hole in the wall tavern. Now it is bright, clean, bustling with patrons, and all around a great neighborhood bar! Do you know what every great neighborhood bar needs, an absolutely amazing bartender....and Birch Tavern has that too. Her name is Kim and she is a big part of what makes Birch Tavern great! We parked out behind the bar, and we came in through the back entrance. The parking lot was packed, so we weren't sure we would find a seat. Kim spotted us coming in and she quickly greeted us with a friendly hello, and then she immediately pointed out where there were two seats that we could slide into. That kind of greeting, and kindness is so rare now a days. She quickly made her way over to us with two menus and then proceeded to have our beers out to us in no time. Let me say this again, the bar was packed. By the time we left, we were convinced, Kim was only one of two working the entire place, other than those cooking in the kitchen and delivering food. Kim was able to keep all the patrons drinks full. She knew what we were going to ask for before we asked for it. She is amazing and she made our visit so enjoyable. Birch Tavern has good bar food. If you get the pretzel bites, we highly suggest them with the honey mustard. Our dinners came out hot. We didn't have to wait long for the food. I enjoyed my grilled chicken sandwich and fries. My husband thought the italian sub was ok, not the best, but totally edible. We were so happy with our visit, we will definitely be back again. Hopefully Kim will be there to help us out. If you are in Groveport and you are hungry or thirsty, stop in to Birch Tavern. Don't forget there is parking in the back.

    Oil needs changed. Karaoke fun. There are classier places and better food nearby. A drunk man was in front of me in line at bar they gave him another beer . And he fell right in front of me and all most pull me down. Potato kegs station.dark oil in old .

We 're often done working at late night hours. This is our favorite place to stop before heading home. Well, let's face it, there's nothing else open. Inside is a counter that seats around five people along with maybe eight booths. Depending on the time of day or night, there's at least one cook and one or two servers. The menu is breakfast on one side, lunch on the other. Order from either. It's all available all the time. Don't forget to Google the secret menu for some additional good options. You'll feel like a real old school WH customer. This place has the best hashbrowns, and be sure to have them smothered, covered, chunked, diced, peppered, capped, and topped! Add on a waffle, eggs, and a fresh cup of coffee. You're all set! You can play some tunes on the jukebox while you're watching your food be cooked. It's prepared to order and usually ready fast. Great way to start the day or end it!

I really enjoyed the style of this diner, such a throwback to old school clientele, and had such a nostalgic feel to it. I remember my dad taking my brother and I to spots like this in Oklahoma growing up, and thought it was just right to take my son here and not just enjoy some quality time with my son, but to enjoy some breakfast. Now we didn't order anything fancy, honestly, I wasn't really hungry, so I ordered the Avocado toast, and my son had the oatmeal bowl. To be honest, I really like how simple this food was, but in all truth, how really delicious it was too. The eggs were cooked just how I like them, the fresh taste of the avocado was on point. My son enjoyed his oatmeal and brown sugar. The young man waiting our table (Logan), was a good kid, quick to take our order, quick on the coffee, and extremely polite. No doubt the manager knows, that kid is a keeper. The establishment was very clean, and just had a clean shine to it. Best part was just enjoying time with my son, and showing him how important that family time really is. Will we come back, no question we will.

My wife found a hair in her food after taking only one bite. Our waitress handled it professionally and apologized right away, saying she would get the manager. The manager never came to our table. Instead, we were given a $7.50 discount, but no one offered to remake her meal or make things right. That's basic customer service, and it didn't happen. I still paid my bill and left a 30% tip because the issue wasn't the waitress, she did her job. The problem was management. Based on how this was handled, we won't be returning, and I'll be sharing this experience with others. Customers deserve better than being ignored.

That's a strike. I ordered the Jerk Chicken meal with cabbage and Mac n cheese. Beef patty on the side. It seemed to take 25 minutes for my food to come out. There were 2 other customers also waiting to pick up. Seemed a little long. I decided to take mine to go. The flavor of the Jerk Chicken was good and the portion was nice. Not too hot like some places. But what's missing is that grill flavor. The chicken was tender but jerk needs that kick that you get only from a grill. Also, not chicken pieces but what seemed like diced chicken thighs, no bones, swimming in sauce. The cabbage was about as expected. The Mac n cheese was the star of the plate. Gooey and cheesy but buried under the mound of chicken. I could still enjoy the cheesiness. Buried under the heap of chicken and sauce was a burned portion of cheese which put a smile on my face. The best. Honestly I polished off the Mac n cheese and left about 1/3 of the chicken and 1/2 the cabbage. I was a little over the flavors. The Beef Patty was good, no complaints. My total was $21 with tip, no drink. Not the best bang for the buck IMO. There are authentic options in Columbus with the same portions, grilled and bone in, for slightly less money. I've never left a crumb at those places. So I give this one a solid 3 stars.

If you are…read morecraving some jerk chicken, please just call them place your order to pick up later because they don't care if you wait for 30 minutes or an hour for your food. They have several signs on the walls stating that they take time to finish the order, but they are taking it way too far. The food is not bad, the service is awful. Even though if you pick up your food and decide to eat at the restaurant, I do not recommend it. The tables are really uncomfortable and the ambience is a little bit neglected if you will.

So that's what I choose to believe. I just hope the place shapes up, because someone else might not have taken it as well as we did. On the bright side, the staff seemed friendly (when we left, two servers near the entrance told us to have a nice day) and the dishes at the tables around us looked really good. I hope to come back and successfully try that chicken noodle soup someday
