    Chicken and cinnamon roll
    Christy C.

    The food and service was fantastic. I ordered the chicken and cinnamon roll and would get it again in a heartbeat. It was the perfect combination of sweet and savory. My husband had the breakfast sandwich and it was very good. If you like the fatty thick bacon then definitely get a side of bacon.

    Beer menu!

    Stayed in the Moxy during the snowmageddeon for a hockey game. Strolled to this restaurant to evade bundling up and going in the snow. Was met with a smiling staff, hot coffee and amazing sweet potato pancakes. The cinnamon whipped cream was truely the best I've ever tasted. The paleo bowl and breakfast tacos were very filling!

    Broken glass

    Sliced my foot open after broken glass went unattended for over an hour. Permanent damage in my foot, thanks townhall!

    Salad with beef added.

    Clearly a popular place in Short North, went for a slightly early dinner and ended up with a very decent salad, loaded with nuts alongside the steak I ordered it with. Inside is loud with plenty of tables and bar space, outside is a long and very sunny patio on the street, service is attentive. However minus one star as the hostess seated me in full sun and didn't seem to care, I know I could have asked to be moved - virtually every other table was empty - but instead I opted to finish my salad and go elsewhere for more food.

    Came back for the Thai peanut bowl but on the weekends they do a "brunch" menu until 3 pm. So couldn't get the bowl but still enjoyed the brunch! Check out the chicken and cinnamon roll!! The egg which was delicious with little crispy hash browns in it. The wagyu steak and eggs was phenomenal BUT very small amount of steak The Cinnabon latte was delicious. There was a Ohio state game and the place was packed Can't wait to be back

    During my trip to Columbus I was looking for a spot to grab some good food and watch sports. I stumbled upon TownHall and I'm lucky I did because this restaurant is amazing! My friend and I arrived on a Wednesday night around 8:30pm and were seated immediately. It wasn't packed when we came in but it did get busier as the night went on. The ambiance was very nice and lively. There were people hanging out, having a good time, eating, drinking at the bar and watching sports on the TVs. I love the interior and decor as well. There was wood everywhere and it felt very rustic. Our server was super nice, friendly and helpful. It was our first time and she was able to walk us through the menu to help us make our decisions and answered any questions we had. We helped us get started with a few of their cocktails which were great. We ordered their keto chicken wings to start as well. For the main course, we ordered their Wagyu steak with shrimp and sushi. Their steak was mouthwatering and cooked to a perfect medium rare. Each bite was very good. Their sashimi and sushi rolls were very delectable and really fresh in my opinion. We also ordered a fresh pressed juice and smoothie because our minds were blown seeing a dinner spot and somewhat of a sports bar have juices & smoothies for us to order at night. It was very cool. We ended the meal with their butter cake and skillet cookie with ice cream. Both were very decadent and sweet. Their butter cake is a popular dessert amongst their customers and I can see why. It tasted amazing and I'm glad I was able to indulge in it. Overall, my first experience at TownHall was fantastic and I'm glad I found out about it. I'm looking forward to visiting again the next time I'm in Columbus. Every food and drink item we tried was splendid, the customer service was amazing and I just really liked the vibe of the restaurant while I was there.

    We were looking for a reasonably priced place for dinner in between COSI and our hotel. We stopped…read morehere and it was phenomenal! I was a bit worried as it looks more like a night club from the outside, but the food was fantastic! We ordered the popcorn chicken, the Shanghai noon burger, mama Chien's dumplings, drunken noodles, a cobra old fashion and a local beer (paper cloud?). The chicken had some unique seasoning and the drunken noodles were phenomenal; the noodles were giant and cooked perfectly and the dish has some unique touches like pea pods that you don't usually find. You order at the bar, but even with that the service was great! A server brought out an herb for us to try that is in many of their dishes. They checked in on us several times and even refilled water, which you get yourself at the back. The customer base was very diverse. I'm guessing the place may turn more club-like later at night, but for dinner it's a perfect family restaurant.

I loved watching the bartenders make the drinks. It's mesmerizing. We tried the Koji Popcorn Chicken, Ezzo Pizza Dumplings, Seasoned Fries, Mama Chien's Dumplings (pork & sweet potato filled). All the food was amazing. I ordered a Kopiko Espresso Martini that I will go back 10x over to have again and again. I would say the only thing I'm not a huge fan of is going up to the bar to order every time you need something. I think they could really thrive using a QR system and/or digital tabs to make that process simpler. Also so you don't have to keep leaving the table. Either way, definitely worth it to check out!

    I really, really, really love the drink menu of the Alibi. Like, a lot. Their visual chart is a…read moregodsend for cocktail explorers, and all of the drinks came out delicious and exactly as described. It's so creative, and the drinks are really the stellar stand out here. However, the atmosphere of those drinks is what gives me pause when thinking about coming back. The limited table situation, tiny cramped space, and loud music means that it doesn't feel particularly relaxing. People are constantly brushing up against you (even at 5PM), and holding a conversation at a normal distance is nearly impossible. NOTE: This place is covered in dust. No shade to the ownership as it doesn't appear to be anywhere near food prep areas (it's on the decor, on/around shelving, all over the faux plants, etc.), but if you're someone who's sensitive to dust, this is probably not a good fit. PROS: -I loooooooove how they've done their drink menu. As someone who is still exploring the potential of cocktails, their nerdy "chart" that places all of their drinks on a sweet/bitter and alcohol-forward/approachable visual chart is SUCH a help. As such, everything I ordered was absolutely amazing for me. I knew exactly what to expect from a drink because of its position on the chart, and it delivered. -Their drinks are really unique. Aqua faba? Fat washed alcohols? Lollipops or toasted marshmallows as garnishes? Super cool. Don't let some of the weirder descriptions creep you out of trying them. -All of their drinks were delicious. Everything I ordered was exactly as described. I often go places where the taste is barely related to its namesake, but they were entirely on-point here. CONS: -I'm not sure if someone called off that night as other reviewers are in love with the service, but our service was really really slow. No real rapport with the staff; just stating the name of a drink as they rushed past and then they were off to try to clean a table or take someone else's order. The drinks they made were great, but this isn't somewhere we'd go if we were in a hurry. -The pictures do not accurately convey how small this place is. Like, it's small. I'd guess less than 1000 square feet. My apartment is bigger by a lot. This isn't necessarily an issue, but it means people pile up quickly as they wait for seating (there's like 4/5 tables and then bar seating). The human walkways are small enough that the bartenders and other guests will brush against you a lot - even while seated. -I get the vibe they were going for here, but with the smaller space, I think a lot of the potential decor options had to "go" in order to fit more humans. It's giving me hardcore The Hearth Room (in Cincinnati) vibes, and I think it could honestly pull it off if it simply had more space. The "relaxed, sophisticated bourbon bar" doesn't quite come through as well when things are so focused on simply fitting in more bodies. -It's loud AF. Like, really, really loud. Between all the people and the blasting pop music, it required leaning into someone's ear in order to speak at normal volumes. We'd regularly have to pause the conversation if something in the music was building to a drop. This is not a place I'd take someone I wasn't very very comfortable with because it really requires being in someone's space to talk. -There's a single all-gender toilet here for everyone in the establishment. It's basically a revolving door of people in and out of it. The door auto-closes, however, so it's really difficult to figure out if it's open or not. There was usually a queue of people waiting in front of the door.
