    Great little border line dive bar with a great happy hour. Great service and a super fun environment with music, dart boards and a pool table.

    Popped in here after a few other Short North stops. We had never been and our out of town friends said that their Uber driver told them to go there. They wanted to see the karaoke so we we game. Had no idea it was tucked back there in the strip. The place is all kinds of eclectic. The decor is crazy. The old phone booth turned into a phone charging station, the old salon dryer chairs, the murals, the carpeted wall and the crazy amounts of beer tap handles around the ceiling. The restrooms are wallpapered with cool old magazines. The men's restroom with old Playboy covers. Very cool. The karaoke was on point. Both terrible and entertaining. The people watching was great. The drinks are strong. And super cheap!!! We got 4 beers and 4 mixed drinks for $20.00 man!! We had a great time there. We would definitely go back again. Has its own parking lot so that's awesome. That's hard to find in Short North.

    McClellan's Pub - Fish n chips

    "Come for the Fish & Chips, stay because you can't feel your legs--mostly from whiskey, partly from…read morethe temperature in the restaurant." McClellan's Pub delivered a plate of Fish & Chips so good I briefly considered applying for dual citizenship with Ireland and Great Britain just to honor both sides of the dish. Perfectly crispy, piping hot, and seasoned like the chef whispered sweet nothings to the fryer. The whiskey selection? Huge. Titanic. Practically its own ZIP code. But not a drop of Powers. , A tragedy Shakespeare himself would've rewritten entire scenes for. So, like any self-respecting Irish-at-heart patron, I defaulted to good old Jameson--reliable, comforting, and always there for you, like that one friend who helps you move because they "actually like lifting things." I also grabbed to-go orders for the home tribe: bourbon meatballs, prime rib sliders, and meatloaf. The feedback? Universal acclaim. They devoured everything like I'd brought them a peace offering after years of conflict. If McClellan's ever launches a catering service, entire families could be reunited. The place was packed through Happy Hour and well beyond--apparently, half of Columbus had the same idea. If popularity is a metric of quality, this pub is basically Beyoncé. Temperature-wise? A bit chilly. Could've been the weather... could've been the pub... could've been the frigid realization that they were this close to having my favorite whiskey. Hard to say. Bring a jacket just in case. All in all, McClellan's is a rock-solid choice for hearty pub eats, stellar vibes, and enough whiskey to make you forget they didn't have the one you wanted.

    Great service. We've been a few rimes and have always fiund the bartender to be a good guy…read more Normally I order the salad served with grilled ir fried chicken. The portion is large. Green are always fresh and I just enjoy it. Wednesday is their half price fish & chips special. Two larges pieces of cod battered and deep fried to perfection! Served with fries and a small sides of tarter sauce and a delicious vinegar based slaw. Today I ordered my fish blackened and grilled. This option is not on the menu but was a yummy and healthier option. McClellan's is tucked away in a shopping plaza at the corner if Snouffer and Sawmill behind a bagel shop. They have a lovely patio on the side of the building if you want to sit outside. Inside is a european style pub with old liquor bottles for cold water on the table. We regularly visit McClellans and recommend that you check them out!

    Pat and Gracie's is very near to capital Square, and is an excellent location for a lunch or dinner…read morewith friends or colleagues. Great for finding some food before attending a show at one of the nearby theaters. The menu is what I would best describe as comfort, food. Burgers, pot roast, chicken, pastas, and other selections, which are filling and delicious. A menu is available for review online. Parking is available on street and in a variety of garages and flat lots located throughout the area.

    I've had this place bookmarked for a while but never found ourselves in downtown cbus until today…read more We saw a matinee show at the Ohio Theatre (highly recommend) and then walked over to Pat & Gracie's for a late lunch. Arrived approximately 3:30pm - restaurant basically empty (maybe 5 tables total occupied). Went to check in for 2 and the host said he had reservations at 5. Huh? So I asked do you mean you can't seat us until 5? And he said no, that we need to leave by then because other people are coming. I thought that was very weird and unprofessional. I've never had an experience like that before. It's a basic sit down place, why would you think we'd linger for more than an hour and a half? Whatever, weird feeling, but we were seated. Seated in the walkway. Not like in a path but literally blocking the walkway where you step down. Why do I say this? Because people walking by kept banging into me. Not their fault. Why is there a table there? And why were we seated there when at least 80% of the restaurant was empty???? Ok whatever. Ordered food including their signature made in-house tots. Waitress comes back and says they were slammed in the morning and they're out of tots. (Man I feel bad for the people coming at 5. LOL) whatever except the people at the next table appeared to be served tots. Food was tasteless. The Mac and cheese had a weird texture like the roux wasn't cooked properly. My patty melt was mostly bread as the patty was too small for the bread. My husband had the signature chimi burger and it completely lacked any chimichurri flavor. Like at all. We were out by 4ish (plenty of time for them to prepare for their expected onslaught) and needless to say I've unbookmarked this place from my yelp. Maybe we'll try the Mexican place across the street next time. ‍
