And, you'll probably find them here at The Attic on Adams! This is a very cool bar. The drinks are strong and cheap. The atmosphere is eclectic and comfortable. The service is usually fast, friendly, and accurate. Local products? Yes. Pretty much all of the local distilleries are well represented here. Breweries too. The food? I haven't eaten here since Manos closed shop, but the apps looked pretty good. A couple of couches for comfortable seating, a couple or three pinball machines, pool tables, a dart board, or two. Yeah, you'll find them here. A few board games as well. The crowd? That's where the fun is. Very diverse and interesting. Very laid back and pretty friendly. If there's a hipster left uptown, you'll find him/her/them here! Five stars!!

This is the first Rumpus Room review in "over 10 years!" This is probably because the RR reopened…read morein August of 2025 after being shutdown for about 5 years! Okay people now THIS is a "neighborhood bar." It serves the historic Birmingham neighborhood of East Toledo, but seems very friendly to outsiders (like your's truly). Laice, the bartender was great. Drinks: Strong and well priced. Local booze? Yes! Several products from Toledo Spirits are in da house! Lots of domestic beer, White Claw, canned Bacardi's, etc). Craft beer? Nah. FOOD: Not really yet, but they are working on reopening the kitchen. Right now, however, they do have (LOL) chips, nuts, and beef jerky. And, you can bring in your own food, too. Very comfy atmosphere. TOTAL throwback. Again, THIS is a what a neighborhood bar is supposed to be. Tons of booths...seems like a great place to serve food. RR has pool tables, online Jukebox, keno, etc...everything you'd expect to find in a neighborhood bar. The Rumpus Room. Hey? It is what it is...and for this kind of place, it's 5 stars!

I live in a region with a lot of restaurants per capita, the vast majority of which are mediocre or…read moreoutright bad. They have remained so, unfortunately, because the people who live around here don't know any better, or simply don't care that their dining options are so abysmal. That said, the Rumpus Room is a dive bar that serves food. This is by no means a novel concept, and the bar (no pun intended) certainly isn't set high; however, a lot of bars around where I live manage to screw up simple things. Even worse, there are a few bars that market themselves as "gastropubs," which, in addition to being inaccurate, has the unfortunate side effect of duping some unsuspecting and unknowing diners into believing that they've stumbled upon a real gastropub. And now, a brief interlude... Merriam-Webster defines a gastropub as "a pub, bar, or tavern that offers meals of high quality," which is why it's risible that Ye Olde Durty Bird and Bar 145 think of themselves as gastropubs. This is not necessarily to say that either Ye Olde Durty Bird or Bar 145 serve poor-quality food (they don't) or that they're being intentionally dishonest by associating themselves with the term "gastropub" (they're not). What this is saying, however, is that people in this area wouldn't know a gastropub if one crept up behind them and smacked them across the face. Moving on, the Rumpus Room gets it right. No glamour, glitz, or puffery at 2212 Consaul Street, just good food. Nothing exceptional, mind you; then again, that's perfectly acceptable as long as you're not telling people something to the contrary. The burgers are excellent, and are served with house-made potato chips. On my last visit, I enjoyed a cup of chicken paprikash soup, likely a nod to the surrounding historically Hungarian neighborhood, Birmingham. The only other individual in the bar at the time of my last visit, a man I adjudged to be the proprietor, told me that this coming Friday would feature breaded pork chops, sweet and sour cabbage, and mashed potatoes, which I'm sure will be on par with everything else I've had here. The putative owner also offered that the meatloaf, the recipe for which was his mother's, has pleased everyone who's ordered it. Clearly, I need to order it the next time I'm there. I've only been to the Rumpus Room for lunch, so I can't speak to the alcohol offered; however, I've seen what's there. Draft beer isn't available, but the requisite brands of American lager (e.g., Budweiser, Bud Light) are. Likely owing both to the clientele and the time warp in which the Rumpus Room exists, widely available brands of liquor sit next to bottles of Black Velvet, Queen Anne, Seagram's VO, and, although I don't remember seeing it, I can't imagine there isn't a bottle of Cutty Sark somewhere. Contrary to the Rumpus Room's radio advert on 100.7 The Zone, I wouldn't bring my family here, and, were I single, I wouldn't bring a date here. But I would return - and have - for the friendly atmosphere and the satisfying meals.

I would definitely order these any time I go back. My wife ordered the All American BLT Burger, a 1/2 pound burger with five slices of bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and mayo. Huge and she chose the hand cut fries over the kettle chips. I ordered a half Lenny (the full Lenny is two sandwiches), it's a bagel with fried salami, corned beef, Swiss cheese and cream cheese.

We stayed for two rounds only because to use a credit card you have to spend $10. They had a surprising amount of bottled beverages, bud and bud light on tap.

It doesn't seem like a bad place but I can't do the smoke. 1 star because I didn't die, 1 star for the cool bowling game. - 3 stars for smoke and sketchy bathrooms. Also I wouldn't advise lone women to go here. I was the only female. Man after man came through the door. No females. The second review of this place is pretty accurate.

Maaaaaan I wanted to love this place!!!!…read more First visit ever for me. It's a Monday and I had high hopes. Jazz Night!! We were 2 of 3 people there. I hated to leave but they didn't open until 7, and we had not eaten yet. The food variety is just typical bar food. I wasn't enticed enough to risk it. Service - they really need someone that appreciates jazz to bring the right crowd in. This particular bartender seemed less than thrilled to be there. Ambiance - If they work on that, this place would be a gold mine on Mondays!!! Needs a loungy intimate setting. Small tables in front of the stage along with thick deep read curtains surrounding. We walked into a dead cold bar and odds are we will not be back.

We were here in December, only complaint is I don't think the bathrooms are heated, it was very chilly in there. One other thing to note, if you order root beer, it is birch beer and is very sweet (for my own future knowledge, I don't care for it).

Ambiance was dark- like a bar-type of atmosphere- which didn't matter because it was an overcast day in Ohio. It was also more of a sports var as there were lots of TV screens. I ordered a chicken caprese sandwich after being assured by my server that it was one of her favorites. It came with delicious French Fries. The sandwich was good but not amazing. For my taste, the chicken was a bit overcooked, but better than undercooked. The fries were delicious, even though I only ate a few. Before I went to college, I worked in a nice seafood restaurant and our nightly task was to make sure ketchup containers were full. Therefore, I noticed that my container of ketchup was down to the last few squirts. Never a good thing/sound! Overall, not a bad place to eat, but nothing worth going out of your way to try, imo. I see that others gave it better reviews, so this is my experience, Pictures below...
