    Visited this establishment once during a Sunday brunch and loved the environment. The ambiance of…read morethe place was cozy and welcoming. The customer service was exceptional. The food was really tasty and comforting, however my only issue are the prices of buffet. That's the only reason I'm giving 4 stars. (Plus I can't quite give 4.5, otherwise they'd get 4.5 stars rather than 4.) If it's in your affordability, I'd recommend stopping for a bite with your family or group of friends. (Note: The roasted brussel sprouts & little flaky danishes are DELICIOUS!)

The service was good seated quick on a high top and the server got our orders in fast and the food was out as well. The Mac n cheese eggrolls were new and interesting. Outside was crispy and crunchy and you bite into a soft Mac n cheese pieces. I ordered the my first rodeo sandwich. It came with chicken, bacon, jalapeños, and the side of vegetables for the sandwich lettuce, tomatoes, onion. The chips are their speciality homemade kettle chips. Those were savory and crunchy. I think they can do a better job with sharing daily specials for the food I know they specialize in beer but I did not try any. Server jumped quick into starting us with drinks. Especially for a tourist like me there should be a welcome since this is a very dandy spot to have a restaurant. So service was a 2/5 food was a 3/5.

    I am an OU alumna and sad to write this review. I have chosen the OU Inn for years -- not because…read moreit's the most modern option (it isn't), not because it's the closest to campus (it isn't), and not because the rooms justify the price gouging that comes with Mom's Weekend (they don't). I chose it for the nostalgia... and the sense that as a member of the OU community, this was my hotel. I won't be making that mistake again. Here's what happened: I booked a room for Mom's Weekend 2026 a full year in advance -- because that's what you have to do when a hotel decides that one weekend a year justifies a $500/night rate. Fine. Supply and demand - I get it. What I didn't get was any reminder. Every hotel I've stayed at across the world -- and I travel frequently -- sends a "We're looking forward to seeing you this week" days before check-in. The OU Inn, apparently, has not discovered this technology. Instead, I received a reminder email at 7:10 PM -- after check-in had already passed. Not so useful. When I called and acknowledged my own mistake -- I genuinely did forget -- I wasn't asking for a free pass. I asked only to cancel the second night, understanding I'd eat the cost of the first. The response? A rigid recitation of the 48-hour cancellation policy by River at the front desk. On a sold-out Mom's Weekend. When hotels in Athens are turning people away for months before. The idea that they couldn't rebook that room -- on the busiest weekend of the year -- is either dishonest or incompetent. And then the cherry on top: I received a cancellation confirmation email Saturday morning, which gave me genuine hope that someone with a pulse had reviewed my situation and done the right thing. Nope. Turns out the system auto-cancelled when I missed check-in -- and then staff **manually re-entered my reservation knowing full well I wasn't coming.** That is not a clerical error. That is a choice. I have kids at OU now. I will be making the trip from California multiple times a year for the next three years. I was fully prepared to be a reliable, repeat customer -- someone who picks the OU Inn on principle, even when better options exist. That's what loyalty looks like. What I experienced in return was rigidity, indifference, and staff that were, frankly, rude about it. To management: you had every tool to make this right. A waitlist. A goodwill gesture. Basic human flexibility on the most in-demand weekend of your year. You chose none of them. For $450 (refund for one night), you've lost a customer who was already sold on you.

She finally came over and I tried to make friendly conversation, that got a gruff reply so I asked for WT was told, "We don't do Wild Turkey." An expensive whiskey bar with glacial service that doesn't serve one of the most popular and oldest bourbons in America, it's like a bakery without bread. I ordered an EC12 instead and afterward she ignored me and never came back, so I went to a nearby brewery and received great service. I encourage the owners to visit a real whiskey bar, even better, go work in a popular bar where you will be held to a standard and learn the ropes. Someone call Jon Taffer.

The drinks were very refreshing and she kept us up to date about the new rules so we knew when to leave at closing. The patio furniture is so comfortable and there was plenty of room for social distancing. Due to covid you're not allowed to order from the bar but we had very attentive service so there was really no need to leave our spot where we sat. This bar is a cool hole in the wall in Chillicothe but the people are genuine and welcoming and that's why I will keep returning!
