Stopped here because I called ahead and asked if they had Red Oak on tap…read more Lucky me. It turned out to be a Steelers bar. The owner was very friendly. The ribeye burger was excellent. Fried mushrooms and loaded potato skins were done to perfection. The place was clean and lots of TV screens all around. I will definitely come back!!

My company ordered Tobacco Road's boxed meals for lunch and dinner last week while we were working…read morefor the day from Raleigh. For my boxes, I selected the Tobacco Road Club and the turkey sandwich. Neither sandwich arrived dressed (pesto mayo, honey mustard), nor did they put dressings on the side. To be clear, absolutely no one in my group received dressed sandwiches. Fortunately, we found some ranch in the office fridge to share, but even still, the club had no cheese so it was essentially just floppy, sad meats with white bread, and the turkey could not have been more bland if they tried. The side salads that came with them were mediocre at best, and the dressing was not great, either. Literally the only good thing I can say is that the chocolate chip cookies were tasty. I have to wonder if they even make those in house. I was not the one to place the order and I'm glad there was no money out of my pocket, but geesh, if they're going to offer boxed lunches, they could try to be a touch more inventive. Perhaps their other food or their ambiance is good, but I'll never know because you couldn't pay me to try them again after that sad food day.

Came for Sunday Football and was met with lovely service and an amazing game day atmosphere…read more As a browns fan, finding bars in the area that play the game audio can be difficult. At Tobacco Road, browns fans meet in the dedicated Game room, a wonderful atmosphere and set up for football. Menu is expansive, although the wide variety of dishes may cause some selections to not be prepared with as much thought to the dish. I personally had the Durham Bulls burger, which was amazing and met my standards (you can't go wrong with freshly ground meat in house)! The highlight of my experience was our tender by a long mile. He alone tended to the entire room and was a very personable and detail oriented server. I would I would definitely recommend requesting to be in Evan's section if possible -- or come by for a browns game so you can watch with fellow fans!

Both entrees were very good, seasoned well and good portions. The restaurant is a little bit noisy, but we were seated next to a large group and we were near the bar. Overall, nice dinner and would definitely return to this location. Plenty of parking, too.

We went here on a Sunday during Week One of NFL and met a group of friends who had been here…read morebefore. They had $3 draft pours and the vibe is definitely "dive bar", but still charming nonetheless. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. While we were enjoying the games on several TV's, there was an unspoken camaraderie between patrons and staff. The owners clearly care about the community that they have built and their out pouring of appreciation is abundant. Although, this was my first time here, minute by minute it felt more like I was part of this family. We will be back and I know we will be welcomed by this great group of people.

Fun fact: pinball machine for fifty cents, dart boards and a pool table along w some video gambling machines. Trivia on Wednesday nights. Decided to check out Main Street Tavern since it's in walking distance to my house. Walking in I immediately felt a friendly "home" vibe. I felt like these strangers were already my friends even though we didn't say a word to each other. There were a variety of ages ( seems like late 20 and up) primarily middle age looking patrons. There was 1 bartender but she seemed more than able to handle herself behind the bar. If you want food, you'll have to bring it in from elsewhere, but it was a good experience, and I want to check it out for trivia night one Wednesday.

I could definitely see investing in some patio blinds as a huge opportunity! Food and service were amazing. I saw over and over that I had to get the pretzel and it did not disappoint. It was slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the side, it also comes with a side of queso and spicy mustard. The bang bang shrimp was solid and the wings, oh man, delicious! I ordered the sweet bourbon dry rub, the waitress said some people have complained about it being too salt but I love a salty treat! So the salt, smoke and sweetness all worked really nicely together. The had some drink specials for the holiday, I got the Spirit of 1776, the watermelon puree and guava syrup sounded like a good summer drink. They do allow substitutions so I swapped the vodka for tequila. Would definitely recommend! If there are major games, anticipate getting their early or standing.

So I took one of the few seats left at the bar on a Tuesday night, and this really feels like the local neighborhood hang where people know each other. People of all kinds can feel welcome in there. They have drink specials every night, and I took advantage of several High Lifes. It was almost like I was living in the midwest again. I started with garlic parmesan wings. The menu said 6, but I got 8, all drums, which I had no problem with at all! Bleu cheese or ranch are added for free. One of the bigger wings had a little bit of pink though, that's not great. Then I had a Usinger's brat with peppers, onions on a toasted roll with a side of spicy mustard. Just 9 bucks. For my side, I got super thick onion rings with some horseradish sauce. Well worth the extra $2.75! The bartenders kept my water glass full. Even though the bar was quite packed, they seemed to do a very good job of keeping everything organized. It's a fun vibe for sure!
