    Plenty of dart boards (sadly electronic) and pool table

    The Barrel is a decent place for some beers with friends. They have a full bar but the beer selection is typical domestics. Food is as expected in a dive bar. Fun atmosphere and definitely a regulars spot; heavily frequented by law enforcement. Overall solid dive bar.

    It's nice and spacious here. The music is great! I was surprised to see that there weren't any masks being worn during COVID. I was able to keep my distance. There's a wide variety of drinks. I liked the draft varieties. They had liquor and bottle service too. They even serve fishbowls. The pizza looks really good. They've got a big patio out back and a pool table inside. They even have a party room. I'm digging these barrel tables. I came for drinks and music. It was nice to get out and it's calm. The service is fast and friendly and there's a dozen televisions to watch sports.

    Always a great time. Great food. They always have something going on, dj, live music or karaoke. Friendly faces. Great atmosphere. This local establishment also supports local residents and host benefits for the community.

    We stopped by on Memorial Day for a drink and lunch! Service was quick and very friendly. Sarah recommended the snack wrap and it was GREAT!

    Great pizza! They have great bands playing there. And it has convenient parking. It's easy to find right off I75 in Springboro.

    We've been here a couple of times. It is beautiful inside and evokes an atmosphere of the early…read more20th century. The bartenders are attired with class to fit this mood. It is very dimly lit with minimal natural light coming in. This adds to the ambiance and I love it, though it does make for a bit of a challenge in reading the extensive drink menu. Primarily a Whiskey bar, but they can also whip you up any fine cocktail. There are also wine and beer selections. The bar itself is huge and there are cozy tables as well. Expect a crowd, but you will find sufficient bar staff to provide timely service and answer any questions or help you make a selection. Parking is horrendous, and if someone in your party has mobility issues you will probably need to drop them off in front while you seek a place to put the car. But worth the trouble!

    The century bar is a cool old school vibe bar with beautiful original woodwork and whiskey barrel…read moretables and low lighting. They have a bourbon menu a mile long. No food, just drinks, but you will drink high quality liquor. The prices are comparable with other bourbon bars. You have to go to the bar to get service and they seem to be crowded everytime I've been there so you may have a wait but the bartenders are friendly and make great drinks. I've had a whiskey sour (pictured), an old fashioned and have tried a few different shots. All delicious!
