We ordered a flatbread and it was good. I think the other options (bowls or loaded tots) would be good too. But if we go back, I'll probably try another flatbread. We also got a side of the sweet sriracha and it was SO GOOD!

Stopped in here for a quick drink while we were in the area. The atmosphere is really neat here. We…read morewere served quickly since we pretty much had the place to ourselves for a bit. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable! Had a flight of their beers. To be fair, I wasn't impressed with the IPA's or the Bohemian Pilsner, but the Rosé was pretty good! Trying flights is always a gamble because one beer might influence the flavor of the next. Needless to say, I like this place enough to give it another shot next time we are through. Oh, and this place is dog friendly, so bring your pooch!

Great food and great service! The chicken and dumpling soup was phenomenal with nice big chunks of…read morechicken, best I've ever had. The hot roast beef was also great they cut the meat there. The mashed potatoes are real potatoes, not boxed. My husband had the chicken fajita wrap. He says it was hot and juicy, contents were well seasoned and well cooked. Fries were crispy without being burnt. Our server was friendly and attentive without being obtrusive. 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...

Everything but the hostess was 5 stars! The hostess must have been having a bad day as she was crabby and didn't communicate very well.

Got there and they lost our 10 person reservation…read more It was a sign of what was to come... an underwhelming disaster of an experience. "Reservation" for 6:30- at 7:15 we still didn't even have water. By 8pm we had drinks and appetizers and by 8:15 we left without eating dinner. The pickles were soggy and unseasoned, the kids chicken chunks ordered for the toddler at the table were dry, hard, and overcooked. The menus were filthy, tables unbussed. It was a no-go for us.

Oh my. I will start off simple. Dont waste your time. Everything you can get here, you can find…read moresomewhere else in town and alot cheaper. Came here the first time to check out the beer selection. About $2-4 more expensive than anywhere else in town. Now before you say this is downtown n blah blah, go on down to get ye ole cock n bull where my car was parked in compare. So second time, hop slam release. Bells rep supposed to be in house, live band. Almost fell asleep on the band and I didn't see a rep there from 5 to 7:30 when I was there. I was one of the few that purchased the Hopslam in the glass for $15. Again overpriced. Got some $9 pretzel bites which if you look at the Heights spot about half a mile from there are $4.50 n look exactly the same. Check the pics Staff was marginally friendly both visits. No happy hour on anything and I asked for specials. I took myself on over to the Distillery. Same specialty beer (hop slam) in a 16 oz glass $5.50. Darn near half the price. Ya' ll can keep this spot. I won't be there

The Heights is definitely one of the best spots in Toledo for a night out. The rooftop views are…read morestunning. You get a great look at the river and downtown, especially around sunset. The atmosphere feels modern and chic without being overly stuffy, making it perfect for date night or hanging out with friends. The cocktails are creative and well-made, and the food is solid with a nice mix of shareable plates and entrées. Service is usually friendly, though it can get a little slow when the place is packed. Prices are on the higher side for Toledo, but you're really paying for the location and the experience. Only reason I can't give it a full five stars is that it does get very busy on weekends, so expect a bit of a wait if you don't have a reservation. That said, The Heights is a go-to when I want a fun night out with a great view and good vibes.

Some of the food we had included pork sliders and also Waygu sliders. These were tasty and let's face it, you will eat more than one. The charcuterie platter was very solid and I part liked the prime rib which was medium rare which is how I really like it. The desserts included tiramisu cake, chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate chip cookies. The cookies in particular were soft and had great texture, just like mom's! If you want a great venue with superb outdoor views, this is your spot!

As I've said in the past, I'm probably not the best judge of good beer... because I like most beer…read more BUT, for what it's worth, I'll say that, so far, I've been VERY pleased with the offerings from GBSB. They brew beer (on site) that will please almost any pallet. You're a fan of light and refreshing Wit beer? Yep. How about jet black (essentially) imperial stout? You're covered. Christmas ale and "French toast ale?" You're still good. IPAs, yeah sure of course. At any given time, it seems like GBSB will have between 20 and 25 beers on tap. Is the brewmaster stretching himself a little too thin?? Maybe. I wonder what would happen if they decreased the number of beers brewed at any given time and focused maybe JUST A LITTLE BIT more on quality. Regarding EtOH, they have more than just beer, but every time I've been here, I've only seen people drinking the fermentation of malted barley (and a little wheat). And for good reason...the beer is good! There's no food to speak of, but like most microbreweries around here, you can frequently find a food truck parked outside. The location (on Tedrow in South Toledo) is great. Inside, GBSB is clean and very comfortable. I'd say the taproom could be considered to be a little towards the "sports bar" side of the scale, but still, the TVs are not overly intrusive. Free popcorn. The service has always been great...fast and friendly. The prices? It's craft beer. Regarding the atmosphere again. Great Black Swamp Brewing is dog friendly. You can bring your dog(s) inside. Bring your dog but don't bring your mother-in-law. FOUR STARS, with the potential for 5.

This is Ohio and the weather here 7-8 months out of the year are not a open your windows type of deal. I like beer. I drink beer if Im going to drink most times out. I tried a flight here of 4 of their beers and did not find one that was good. For me. As my man was enjoying the atmosphere I even resorted to getting a glass of wine so we could hang for a bit. Service was just ok. They do have food trucks time to time. None when we were there. I can just imagine how cold it is in here in fall/winter with warehouse type spot atmosphere. Glad I checked it out but don't see any reason to return for me.

I wish they had more canned beverage options but they do have drink specials and a good beer list. Just not what I drink in particular.

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.

All spirits and liquors are made in house. When we visited, they had their brunch menu going on which switches for dinner at 4pm. Will was our bartender and I could not have nicer things to say about him! He sparked up some casual conversation with us, answered some questions we had, and made some great recommendations on drinks! He mentioned their two most popular brunch drinks were the Espresso Martini & Benton's Old Fashioned. We ordered both and WOW! Such a balanced cocktail, nice presentation, and great flavors. Their dinner menu was currently inspired by well known novels which previewing the menu had me wanting to come back. Such a fun spot with unique offerings you won't find at other spots in Toledo. Must try!
