NOT a "d i v e bar" by any stretch of the imagination. This is a charming tavern with old school ambiance, sturdy wooden bar, tables, and chairs (not stools). The bar room has two little "snuggery" areas in the windows up front and we sat in one today when we came for brunch. Fifteen beers on tap. Great classic rock feed. Two additional dining rooms and a big outdoor seating area that actually looks comfortable. The regular menu of soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers, wraps and mains looked really good, but it was 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, right after church, and Doc's serves up breakfast all day Sunday! Including a $7 Bloody with salt rim, lime wedge and three olives - as spicy as you want it. Loved. My husband had the breakfast bowl and was amazed at the quantity and quality of the food. The sliced fresh mushrooms were especially notable. For me, Chicken and Waffles is the very essence of Sunday Brunch, and I was quite pleased. Also a hearty serving, two big chicken cutlets and two thick waffles dusted with powdered sugar. I took half home and finished it for supper. Ask for the Sriracha Syrup on the side, and if you're not a Sriracha fan they will give you regular syrup on request. I got both! When we arrived there was just one other couple at the bar who had already ordered food, but over the next 30 minutes at least ten people in various groupings came in and some went to the dining room. There was just one gal, the bartendress, to wait on everyone and she did a great job keeping up with it all, even checking on us. I'm sorry I did not get her name, but it was Sunday March 8th and she deserves big shoutout. I recommend Doc's and plan to return. Get in here. read more

We were starving after hitting Charm at the Barn and realized we hadn't eaten a thing since early that morning during our coffee drive thru sharing a blueberry lemon cake. By this time it was almost 230 pm on a Saturday. Greg welcomed us and got us our drinks and we ordered the same cheeseburger with fries and aioli sauce for dipping. The only difference between our orders was my BFF wanted her burger to MOO and I wanted mine more med-well. They not only got the order right, we both got the cheeseburger we wanted. Cleaned out plates - we were starving! Prices were reasonable. Staff was awesome. Food was fantastic. Super happy we hit it up and would totally go back the next time I'm in town. read more

After a long afternoon at the corn maze and pumpkin patch, I was in dire need of nourishment. Luckily, I remembered Docs Place in Lebanon! This place is a dive bar the best way, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I tried the fried green beans, crispy and fried perfectly with a side of Chipotle mayo, the house reuben with a side of sweet potato fries and the veggie burger. The reuben had tons of pastrami and cheese, very good and hearty. The standout of the day was the veggie burger with touches of curry and cumin in the mix and a very tasty black bean base. The service was very friendly and quick. This place is perfect if you are are in the area and want some great bar food. read more

Great service. Great burgers. Cute place. Clean, friendly, good food. Barkeeper had a great way about her. Second time here and both times the food was Good. They cooked my burger medium rare with some pink. A lot of places dont do that. Server says they start everything fresh, not frozen. read more

Yum! Always good food & entertainment. Good location. You have to pay to park which stinks. Also Dora so that's cool

Walked in with 12 people place was not busy at all. Older bartender was extremely rude to us. Seemed they did not want our money. We are from a neighboring town establishment and love supporting our friends but not after that. Sad it was my first time there and I definitely won't be recommending we go back. read more

What a fun casual place! We played TouchTunes and Keno then we had dinner and the food was amazing. The salmon arrived perfectly cooked and hot. The chicken Caesar wrap hit the spot. We will definitely go back! read more

Docs is THE place to be!! So welcoming and just an overall good vibe. We came in on a Thursday around noon when we didn't have work, got some beer and an apple cider bourbon drink which was PHENOMENAL! Also got a cup of the bacon potato soup that was soooo delicious. Whiney really took care of us! read more

Fun neighborhood bar and restaurant. Friendly staff, great wings, decent beer selection, and decent prices. Get the spicy garlic wings!

Had lunch and a cocktail here. Ordered the twin 6oz sirloins with the spinach salad and sautéed veggies. The salad was great, loaded with bleu cheese crumbles, bacon bits, nuts/seeds and fresh spinach. The lemon dressing was too oily with little flavor so I recommend picking a different dressing. The steak was nicely cooked, not the most expensive quality, but still worth it and tasted good. The sautéed veggies were outta this world! Well seasoned, fresh squash, onions and peppers. The server was very accommodating and friendly. Sat on the patio and enjoyed the atmosphere. Very cute place, would definitely go back! read more

I slacked and didn't get pictures here but the chicken Alfredo was almost life changing! It was soooo good, the best I've had anywhere and Italian is one of my favorite foods so I've tried a few! We also got a side salad and a side (sweet potato fries, which were delicious as well!). The others in our group had a burger which was ranked as one of the best in a long time and chicken veggie noodles something - she said it was great as well! Service was quick, friendly and efficient and we loved sitting on the brick patio after a long day of soccer! Great place and highly recommend! read more

Among the best restaurants in Lebanon. It has awesome drinks and pretty good food. The service is kind of slow. It helps that it has a nice bar and patio. They also have lots of TVs on sports. I had a Kentucky Bourbon Ale. It's about $5 for a pint. That's pretty good because it's strong. As for the food, it has a lot of typical bar stuff and some healthier options. They have a few wraps. I had a vegetable wrap with hummus. This is $11, and comes with a side. It was a little much to pay for. This comes with eggplant, hummus, and red pepper. I liked drinking and eating in the bar. It would also be nice on the patio. This will be the next time. read more

Giving Doc's an upgrade to 3-stars. A decade ago, we went to Doc's and it was an authentic Italian restaurant. Scratch made everything, and an amazing chef & crew behind the scenes. A few years back, we visited again. It had changed to an upscale bar food sort of place. It was loud, the service was terrible, and I left them with a 2-star review. I heard Doc's had changed hands again, so we decided to tempt fate and visit. We walked in, and it was really loud. I've been to concerts quieter than this. We exchanged glances, and decided to check out the last room to see if it were any better. It was. There was a cold draft blowing on us from under the table, so we relocated. Temperature was still cold, but at least tolerable. And it was much quieter, so we sat down again. Waiter was a young man, certainly personable. I asked for a beer and wine list and he had it completely memorized. I appreciated his leading question: "What type do you like?" It saved us both. He was the certainly the star of the show. He handled his several tables with grace and efficiency. I asked if I should order the hamburger or the Reuben. He said, "If you like Reubens, you'll really appreciate ours." I gave it a shot and was very happy with it. My wife ordered the hamburger, and she said it was good. I would say you might save your money on the "Bacon tater tots," as they were fairly underwhelming, but the beer selection made up for it. All in all, Doc's didn't disappoint this time. I'll stop talking people out of going there now. read more

Totally enjoyed our stop at Doc's Place. It's around the corner from the Golden Lamb, so possibly overlooked as a destination within Lebanon. We have been by it several times when eating in town but finally made the time to stop for lunch. It was well worth it with great service, street side patio dining was a blast. Food was awesome with a great beer selection and highly recommend it if you're through Lebanon to make the time to stop at Doc's Place read more

My wife and I tried to eat here recently, but after getting a seat and then being ignored for over ten minutes we left. If the place had been busy we would have waited longer, but that wasn't the case. At least half the tables were empty. The employees just weren't interested in us. We ended up getting a fine meal elsewhere. There are several good restaurants in Lebanon. read more

I had the shrimp basket and my husband had the fish sandwich. They were both good and the service was good, we ordered to go.

Fun lace for drinks and a quick bite. The bar staff always meet you with smiles. The food is bar food. The atmosphere is fun.

I was truly excited to try this establishment. During Covid if I go out I want to see the mom and pop places and give them my money. The service was slow. Expected somewhat. I guess an owner was actually blaming guests for complaining that the service was slow. What kind of owner comes in and does that and then proceeds to walk up the street? I feel at the very least he could have stopped by our tables who have not had a drink refill for 45 minutes and offered to refill them, especially since we were not outwardly complaining. Now the waitress was really sweet and amazing. Lord knows she worked her tail off. The food was amazing as well. It does take a while to get. We got one of each of the burgers and the fried green beans. For anyone who has never tried these. Please try them. The burgers are huge and delicious! We never had a chance to try out the bar menu since we decided to stop after running around all morning we initially wanted just a soda to start but we couldn't seem to get attention to add on any liquor drinks. I would go back to this place again but only if I knew I had the time and wasn't really hungry and wanted to hang out a while. The food is worth it. Service with the waitress is lovely. Maybe next time I will have a better review for them. read more

The service staff is great, the beer is good, but my burger was over cooked. They offered me another one but I refused. Then my waitress offered another beer but for me one is enough. She came back with an offer of cheesecake which I couldn't refuse. Very hospitable. I'm giving it a three because if the burger. read more

Ordered Teriyaki noodles with salmon, when it arrived the salmon was not cooked completely. It was still cold in the middle and dark red. Did not receive all of our food and hunt down the waitress to get refills. read more

Went to Docs Place for the first time tonight & I was surprisingly impressed. Smaller place, with three different areas that actually have a lot of seating even though the restaurant isn't that big. The menu had sandwiches, salads, a pasta dish or two but mostly bar food. My son & husband ordered the heart attack burger & loved it! It did look exquisite I will say! I ordered the rooster, which was a fried chicken sandwich with cheese, avocado & a jalapeño jelly. So good! Chicken was juicy & the jalapeño jelly was obviously homemade. Plus we all got our sandwiches on a brioche bun which is a favorite for us! Really enjoyed the small town bar/restaurant atmosphere & the staff was very welcoming! My only complaint was the draft beer list was kind of small- about 8-10 beers on tap and mostly IPA's or just domestic, and the beer my husband tried to order they ended up being out of. That being said the miller lite was cold, the food was great & the staff was friendly! Do yourself a favor and check this place out! read more

This place had a local tavern feel to it. A lot of local patrons. The food was good, especially the burgers. I also really liked their fried green beans with chipotle aïoli sauce. My husband got the home made onion rings and really enjoyed them as well. Our waitress was nice and proficient. The owner or manager (not sure which he's was) was really on top of things, helping out with everybody and checking on tables. read more

Service was amazing! I had the patty melt which was so slippery from the onions and 1000 island that it was so hard to keep together. Regardless, it was delicious :) fries are amazing too! read more

One of the best places to hang out in this area! Wonderful food, not you average bar food. The staff are friendly and the patio is great!

Wonderful place to find on the spur of a moment. Steak sandwich was the bomb--real steak and really good. Fish sandwich also delicious. Wait staff was really friendly. Took my dog and sat outside. Street band was playing up the block. I will definitely be back read more

On a beautiful Tuesday afternoon, my wife and I decided to find a place with outdoor seating and have an early dinner. Went into Doc's and briefly talked with the owner before grabbing our table outside. Waitress was fast, friendly and efficient. The meals were delicious from the salad, to the sides, to the main dishes. Will definitely remember to visit Doc's again when looking for a nice place to have a drink and some food in Lebanon, Ohio. read more

This is def my fave local place to hang out. Lebanon doesn't have a whole lot of hang out places to choose from. Great food and great people! read more

I've never been here before- actually never noticed it before. But, I was in Lebanon and I was starving and we spotted it. When we walked in, I wasn't really expecting much as far as food- because it was a bar. But, geeze- I was so wrong- Yes, I'll be the first to admit it. My husband had the Doc burger and I had a side of broccoli and rice and it was delicious. My husband's fries- which I snuck off his plate while he was in the restroom- because of course "I don't eat fries" and they were crisp, fresh, and perfectly spiced. But, my broccoli hit the spot with the ting of parmesan cheese baked perfectly into the steamed finished product. It was perfect. Also, the beers were cold and refreshing. I can't wait to go back. read more

Over priced and the wait time was horrible. Food was mediocre. I spoke to the owner who said it was due to COVID and I explained that it was more a management problem. The servers were scattered throughout the restaurant instead of staying in a designated location. They only had one order machine which was also the cash register for the entire place except maybe the bar. The owner was gracious enough to comp our entire bill because we wait an hour and a half for our food. Two salads, two grilled cheese, and 2 burgers. I don't think we will be back. read more

We carried out lunch for our 10 employees this week and everybody raved about their meal. It is rare when everybody gives their meal a 10. We got 2 reubens, 3 turkey burgers, a rooster chicken sandwich, a heart attack burger, twin sirloins, and fried green beans. Each box had the employee 's name on it and was very nicely packaged. Great job Doc's! read more

No complaints here. I was visiting from out of state and looking to grab something to eat and a beer. Service seemed fine, though I got there at 8 pm. Kitchen closes around 9 and the place shuts down at 10pm during the week. Not a lot going on there but there were a few groups of people still lounging at the bar. Burger was good, beer was cold, service was good... what else can you ask for? read more

So good! Best chicken sandwich my husband and I have ever tasted. The cheese curds and fried green beans were incredible. Please bring this restaurant to Columbus!! read more

Very loud and poor service, was seated at a very wobbly table, fairly limited menu as well.
