I've been here a few times in past years, so brought boyf here for his first time. We sat at the bar and he found a draft selection. I had a tasty old fashioned. It's a nice space, and the bartenders were great.

I stopped in for a drink before grabbing my pizza from Pasquale's. I wasn't expecting to find such a gem! The beer selection was fantastic and there's a full bar. Plus you can grab beer to go. To top it off, the space is super clean and the bartenders were welcoming and helpful. I will absolutely be back! Don't let the unassuming exterior deter you from checking it out!

I love that we are able to bring our food from Pasquale's to eat in their place. There is only one booth, and at the time we were there, there were six guys having a great time on a Friday afternoon. There are other high-top tables and chairs, but since I am small, I don't feel comfortable at those kinds of tables. We sat at a table in front of the refrigerated beers and shelves and watched the big TV above them. The chairs aren't too comfortable chairs, but they will do. I was impressed with how clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated this place is.

Nice place! Great music, great draft list, nice staff. Definitely coming back.

Great drinks (21 beers on draft & mixed drinks available). Safe environment. Clean. A lot to love! You can also buy Bakers Acres plants here. They have a small patio. Good selection of whiskey available Sound system needs improvement. Adequate lighting. Requisite sports on t.v. Bartenders can carry on a conversation. Flights of 4 beers each are offered. I heard the restroom decor was colorful. Do they have music in there to cover up the sound of my farts? Time will tell. Second paragraph written by my husband.

My surprise was found while waiting for pizza next door. I decided on a whim to grab a pie next door and decided to wait at the draft room. The beer was tasty. The staff was engaging. I sat at the bar, and the regulars were welcoming. (Shout out to the "The Smith's). I was able to have #15 and # 19.

Beer to go!

I love this place so much! Amazing draft beers, to go beers, and amazing atmosphere!! I've been here with my two favorite people and could literally stay here for hours and hours and have the best day

The Draft Room is a new bar in Westerville. It has a good selection of local beers. The beers seem fairly priced. It has a wide amount of beers and not just a bunch of IPAs like many of these kinds of bars. The staff tries to answer any questions. I had the Madtree Blood Orange. It's a good fruit flavored beer without being too sweet. The beers usually are about $3 to $5 for a pint with some a little more than that. It has many better of the favorite brewers in Columbus and the rest of Ohio. These include Fat Head, Rheingeist, and Warped Wing. If you would like to sample a few local brewers, go to The Draft Room. It's located close to Cleveland Avenue and Schrock Road. The beer menu isn't big right now but they expect to add more soon.

Awesome environment, awesome people, great service. Right next to the BMV if you need a drink after dealing with all of that. Great beer selections, they also sell plants from their greenhouse that the owners also own. They have cocktails and wine, not just beer. Highly recommend!

Love that this is so close to home! The staff is so friendly and welcoming and their selection of beers is awesome. I will definitely be back very soon UPDATE** still coming here. Still loving the vibes and still loving all the beer selections. You can get whole and half pours as well as crowlers! Definitely stop by if you are in the area or if you want a new spot for you, your friends, or family!

Great beer selection (24 today) and can make any drink you want with their full bar. Great happy hour spot for sure!!! No food, but you can order in or bring food with you. Mmmm, sipping beers are the best, tried the Hoof Hearted "Corinthian Leather Nachos" and it was delicious!! Blantons side car was delicious as well!!!

The room was kind of loud and made it hard to hold a conversation across the table without yelling. Also, I order a growler and was told they didn't have growlers but "32 oz. crowlers". As if that wasn't silly enough, the can they served me supposedly couldn't be legally consumed inside the bar! So I wasted cash buying what I thought was a larger volume of beer for less money when in reality it was 8 oz shy of a 40 which I couldn't consume in the building. That was silly. Overall, not a bad night though.

Example of their draft beer list. Great place for IPA fans.
Matt P.

This place is quickly moving up in the list of my fave places for beer. Reason being variety. Now, I'll say that but then contradict it by saying they should call this place the Hop House since they have so many IPA varieties taking over many of their 24 taps. I'm not complaining-a hoppy heaven for me, but I can see some being annoyed by it. I've been around the beer block a few times but when I looked over their menu I was asking, What's that? Who's that? Where are THEY from? The guys working there knew all the answers and let us take tastes of all the curiosities. Happy Hour: Mon-Fri $1 off all 16 oz drafts and $1 off the cocktail menu. Not a GREAT deal, but it's something, considering the variety and ABV.... Then there's a Hoppy Hump Day every Wednesday with $1 off IPAs. Here's where that hop-heavy menu comes into play. I personally don't like Wednesdays here for they usually have trivia night and I don't like messing with that when trying to relax with a pint. Their 32 oz crowlers are a decent deal, usually averaging a $2-$4 dollar savings over buying 2-16oz there. In addition they have a small carry-out area in the front-bottle and cans, singles and 6ers. Food: a few snacks but the business of the shared Westerville strip mall will deliver: Chinese, Pasquales, Monte Carlo, and I think a Jimmy Johns. Personally, if the beer was more basic these places would be fine, but I prefer just going here to drink and experience. If I needed a nibble, I'd go with their in-house charcuterie featuring meats from local North Country Meats. Haven't had it here but have had it elsewhere and it's legit sh*t. Subtle touches: the bathrooms have lights about the door. If the light is on, it's occupied. So simple but SO helpful. Beer not your thing? They have a good selection of bourbon and other spirits, including a rotating cocktail list. Cheers!

It's a chill location, with Pasquale's nearby, and Ox-b's across the street (who do free delivery during plant bingo).

First time for Brunch at High Bank and was delighted at the variety!!…read more Great quality ingredients, priced appropriately. We loved the peach burrata, so fresh and the arugula was tossed in a rich olive oil with grainy salt. We only wished we had more bread because it was so good! Large seating area, so even though it was noon on a Saturday we were able to be seated. Also got the High Bank House Salad without tomatoes and swapped out the blue cheese for pecorino. They were very accommodating of substitutions which made it easy for us to relax and enjoy. Salmon bowl was well seasoned and the flavors complimented eachother well. Very well cooked salmon, not overdone and a good cut of meat. Tasted as expected.

Double review for PO Box and High Bank. Started off the night at PO BOX 21 which is downstairs at…read moreHigh Banks. Disappointed on the speakeasy entrance since it wasn't as "secretive" Dark decor but had a great time. Our server was friendly. I got the creme de la creme and my friend got an old fashioned. We also split the pimento cheese dip. It had a kick to it. Went upstairs for dinner. He got the salmon bowl which looked amazing and I got the spicy chicken sandwich. The side of fries were amazing due to the sauce. Got myself another drink which was the popsicle stand which tasted like a 50/50 bar Had a pair of friendly servers with one in training. Ended the night with a butter cake. Large serving but too much compote for my liking. Overall great experience for both! Tip: best to find street parking as the lot behind the restaurant fills up fast.

I love State Street because of the vibe and options for drinks and food. This is located at the beginning (or end) of State Street depending on which way you come in. Located behind Co Hatch, there's plenty of parking. Walking in, the place reminds me of The GOAT locations, but just a wee bit more chill. The menu is definitely more expansive. We sat at the bar and at there were TVs around bar but not too loud. Just a comfortable place to spend a Sunday. Connor was helping us and I appreciate that he took our order without writing it down. AND it came out right! The couple next to us ordered the Cheese Curds as an appetizer and the portions are very generous. They looked amazing and we'll have to try them next time. We ordered the Blistered Brussels with Parmesan. Impressive. Not greasy. Crispy with a pop of flavor but not overpowering like some places. I'd say #3 of all the places we've tried. 12 Wings with Hot Honey and Honey Wheat bbq. Love the sauces on the wings equally. Just hit my flavor buds. Nice size wings. I would order them extra crispy next time is my only change. Really good blue cheese!! Sweet potato fries were flat crinkle cut and seasoned well. Peppery like I like. Side of BBQ for dipping. Oh yeah, true fat kid move. Honey Wheat Beer to wash out all down. Their own brew. Sarah had the Orchard Salad with Salmon and she loved it. All in all, at the same time said " We'll definitely be back!" There are so many items I want to try next time. With wine and beer, our total was $108 plus tip. More than fair for the amount and quality of food. We'll be back!!!
